I don't disagree with much of what you say, but I do want to add just a few points and make a few minor changes to your comments...
Sure, racism begins at home where we learn how we relate with the world...
There's plenty of all kinds of hate in this world and unfortunately there probably always will be...
The world isn't perfect, this is more than obvious, and there will more than likely always be some form of racism or some kind of discrimination of one against the other in some form, this is all due to stupidity and fear, the fear may be unfounded or not...
Just about any kid who does well in school can find a scholarship to advanced education and then a scholarship to graduate school or medical school or law school, it would be hard to find an actual exception to this anywhere...
Also, politicians love to stir up social disagreements, this is their business, and most of it is crooked since only someone who is a corrupt individual enters politics in the first place, although there are a small handful of exceptions to this rule also...
In fact, there are many who love to stir up problems where they don't even exist, and there are a large handful of others who keep racism alive, they find race issues where they don't exist, e.g., al sharpton, jessie jackson, and those of their type, this is how they make their money, they hack the system out of its life blood by keeping racism, real or otherwise, alive so they can maintain their position of "authority" and accumulate wealth off the fears and weaknesses of others...
No one ever said life is 100% fair, but to live one's life as a perpetual victim when one could otherwise take the best advantages of life is a personal choice and that is the point of that attached picture, our lives are mostly if not always determined by our personal efforts and our personal choices and not by anything else...
There are probably many other things I could mention here but I think this is enough to make my point...
The shame I mentioned earlier was that I would believe you already know all I just said...
To pretend to be a victim when you have all your choices in front of you is a shameful way to live, it's non constructive and also completely self destructive...
Everyone is a victim of something, but I'm sure you already know this also...
How we overcome our obstacles to to reach personal success and happiness is what makes life itself worth the effort...
