I was listening to the radio yesterday and they were talking about the perception that you are more likley to be mugged by a black man then a white. The conversation then went onto some big debate about wether black parents are any different to white.
So, do you believe that some racial stereotypes may be true? Are black people more likley to lead a life of crime then white? Will an asian child do better at school then a white child?
It just got me thinking. We are raised in a society where you can be branded a racist for saying even the slighest thing about someones ethnicity. Maybe not all racial stereotypes are bad. After all differences are what make us interesting.
I dunno if anything I just posted made sense.
