Educate yourself, don't wear naive blinders, and avoid responding to questions with trite, cliche'd dick responses.

Painting yourself in blackface is the only way to truly know their struggle.

Oh, and sell your current house and move to Section 8 area.

Seeing that racial injustice is defined as "when people are denied rights based on their race or racial background"....I'd say start with your nearest university and ask why is it that if two kids with identical test scores apply to said school, the minority will get accepted simply because of their skin color. If that's not racial injustice then IDK what is.


Does not have to be identical. First hand experience with this. As long as the minority's score is "good enough", he/she is in.

Can anyone give me any ideas? I'm trying to help out this cause anyway I can.

Thanks in advance.



Do what normal, decent human beings do. Treat everyone with decency and respect until they give you direct reason not to.

Also, on the flip side, do not fall for frauds and racists trying to trick you into lowering yourself to make them feel less inadequate.

They also want reparations. Don't ever think that issue won't come up.

Hell, I would agree if it would eliminate race baiting. People don't want to be judged by the content of their character when it benefits them.

Discrimination comes in many forms buttercup.

Some people feel it because they are too fat, too skinny, too tall, too short, too ugly, too pretty, too gay, not gay enough, and so on. Everyone either learns to adapt, becomes stronger for the experience, or they simply commit themselves to a life of misery wallowing in their own self pity of victimhood.

Don't be like that. And don't let only skin color be the form of discrimination you go white knighting for. Yes, there is racism. But discrimination has been part of the human condition since tribes of humans first gathered. If you want to be a social justice warrior, confront and call out all forms of discrimination when there is evidence to support it.

Being a race warrior for only one race is like claiming to be an animal rights lover, but only for black labs.

I wish more people were sympathetic to others that look different from them, or were raised in a different culture. But you're talking about a place, that right now, has a thread about the genetic superiority of Asians and whites vs the other minority groups. And it's not even controversial to them.

Not all places have hope. Sometimes the only way things change, is over time.

You can be very sympathetic and still believe things are going the wrong direction.

If you truly want to lift the minority communities, the current policies of the war on drugs and war on poverty have to end. You also have to incentivize the family unit and stop rewarding abhorrent behavior.

Nothing else will yield results.

1) Make some sort of comment about how we need to "talk about it"

2) Post something on social media

3) Do something completely useless like kneeling a couple of minutes before work every day or wear some sort of clothing that references any sort of faux racial injustice

4) Don't actually do anything of substance that could actually improve race relations like: being yourself and going about your day normally
