Chase away the Race!

I remember once reading a blogger who asked all his readers “are we in the world of facial creams for racial survival” a brain tickler was that article. Is white or black more beautiful?

Well, defining colour is more science which is simply the perception by the human eye and brain. Human beings possess ”Trichromacy” which is a condition of possessing three independent channels for conveying colour information, derived from the three different cone types. Colour is only science and perception so why make discriminate between them?

My memory goes back to fight “Apartheid”- in Afrikaans apartheid means 'separateness' ; as a leader and a peacemaker Nelson Mandela was the leading force in this battle against apartheid. It was a battle worth fighting for and ultimately a battle won. I completely agree that was past but History has an awful way of repeating itself! Are we getting ready for it?

Any of you interested in reading on Racism, there is a very famous speech written by William Shakespeare in one of his works “The Merchant of Venice”

The thought of writing this is purely to kindle your minds! Wake up!
