There are many deadly effects of racism in America. The aftermath of racism has had a negative impact on a generation of different races, creeds, and religions. Racism infests our schools, churches, hospitals, playgrounds, and especially the workplace.
Just imagine going to work to an office full of people who dislike you because of the color of your skin. The American Heritage Dictionary defines racism as “The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that particular race is superior to others.” I define racism as pure ignorance that can lead to violence, diversity and a lack of self worth for the individual being discriminated against.
