    Default What's Post-Racism?

    I heard it recently. I want to know what it means.

    "post" means after. thus "post-racism" means "after racism." it's used to refer to the time when racism doesnt exist anymore, which probably wont be for a long time.

    I haven't heard of the word before but according to this website, post-racial means......

    Defining the Term

    A true definition is undoubtedly hard to come by, as the term and connotations of the term are dubious. The idea of a post-racial society, in its most basic form, is a society in which race is no longer significant or important.



    I'm not to sure though.

    I don't think there'll ever be a time where there is no racisim at all I'm sad to say
    I’ll be a story in your head, but that’s okay, because we’re all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? Because it was, you know. It was the best. A daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well, I borrowed it. I always meant to take it back. Oh, that box, Amy, you’ll dream about that box. It’ll never leave you. Big and little at the same time. Brand-new and ancient and the bluest blue ever. And the times we had, eh? Would had…Never had. In your dreams, they’ll still be there. The Doctor and Amy Pond and the days that never came.

    Racism sucks, one of my so called "friends" made fun of this new girls race and I hate racists, so I stuck up for her and now I'm not talking to him. I'm now friends with the new girl.

    globablization will have to go a long way. we'll all have to be so mixed from various races that itll be impossible to distinguish each other apart.

    I hate your red text on my dark forum skin when it's dark too and i have to copy your text to see it. But yeah, it's never gonna exist so don't worry about it.
