My Biology Honors class took an interesting turn when someone answered "Fried Dog" when we were talking about the food that a Japanese family ate. A speech about racism followed. In my opinion, racism is an important issue to address. Discriminating a group of people because of their skin color is absolutely wrong. Stereotyping is not right because everyone is unique from one another, and no one person is exactly the same as someone else. It may seem to be a joke to some, but there are plenty of people who feel offended at such a statement. For this reason, racism must be avoided at all costs for the sake of humanity.
