Racism in Colombia
Few days ago I was watching a video about racism in Colombia. In there it show some really scary statistics of black people which inlcude their percentage of unemployment, percentage of mortality on adults, percentage of mortality in kids and some other statitics that if I continue talking you wuoldn`t believe them. All this happens because we treat black people as a minority and lets face it, we all sometime in our life have been racist or have saw black people as a minority. What we don`t know is that they are suffering for example the percentage of mortality of afro colombian kids is three times higher than normal! if that statistic isn`t then what? also the unemployment rate is high also all because afro colombians don`t recieve the oportunity that other people like white people recieve because we instantly criticize them and we judge them without knowing. also did you know that only 2 of 100 afro colombians go to college? so we are not humans if we continue staying sitted and not do anything for this people that either you want it or not are our brothers and sisters also. We are all a country, we are all one and there is no definition of what we are doing letting our afro colombian brothers and sisters!
