The Media and Discrimination
To address the issue of systemic racism and discrimination of all kinds, we need to start with the media.
Media stories and news continuously describe and identify the person(s) of focus based on religion, cultural background, race, or sexual preference.
The more we promote, describe, and embellish news and stories on some discriminatory basis, the more we sub-consciously promote those differences for malevolent intent.
Why is a person’s race, religion or sexuality important to the purpose at hand?
In reporting on a criminal act, what difference does it make if the alleged is black, white, Jewish, or gay?
It is time to stop promoting all this divisiveness.
