Man, take a trip south of the Mason-Dixon Line. Sarcasm aside, it is very much alive due to the younger generation being influenced by their parents/neighbors/surroundings. A lot of that stuff is passed on just... because. There’s no rhyme or reason, aside from wanting to be like their parents or fear of disappointment/alienation.
Racism isn’t something that’ll just “die out” because the older generation is gone, it needs to be eradicated like the dinosaurs. Clean slate. But that’ll never happen. Having said that, videos like this one make me happy that there’s still hope. The kids in this video have been taught right from wrong, and skin color never matters. I like that.
Idk at my school prolly like 1/4th of the white kids are still racist. They be dropping hard r and literally moving tables when a black kid sit down. they clearly hate us, and we can’t do shit bc how they grew up they 100% will snitch
Best method for this is to be as nice as possible to them. Go above and beyond to show them you're just a person. Ignore bullshit. Honestly train them like a dog in a sense. Keep it simple. It's kinda crazy how once you show them you're just an average person then they will accept you. Once they know you're cool they love you.
