It creates a victim mindset, of which ethnic minorities are better than this. Children should be raised to treat everyone fairly and view everyone equally, not that their white friends are more privileged than them.

An equal society can only be achieved if we are taught that we are all equal no matter the colour of our skin. We should judge people based on their beliefs, not because of their history and where their forefathers came from

“racially color blind”
Choosing to promote the idea that we 'shouldn't see colour' or that children should be 'racially blind' would only prosper in a society that has no existing racial prejudice, discrimination or inequality. Teaching children about the disparities between different races in THIS time period, I think is the stepping stone towards a future where race is not 'seen' or 'considered' to the extent it is today. We cannot ignore the challenges that are faced today by ethnic minorities and i fear that promoting 'racially blind' attitudes does more… Read more
