RACIAL EQUALITY

The world has degenerated to the state of anarchy which has posed danger and bestowed calamities on the entire human race.  Over the years, human race have encountered several challenges ranging from religious war, insurgency, terrorist attacks, xenophobic attacks and racial inequality is not left out.  

Racial inequality or simply termed racism is the discrimination and unfair feelings of dislike for a person or group because of the race, ethnic, country or tribe they belong to. 
Racial inequality is not peculiar to a particular race or country, it has become a general phenomenon. 

Racial equality on the other hands occurs when institutions give equal opportunities to the people of all races regardless of nationality and or physical traits like skin color.  Racial equality needs to be solicited for and embraced for the purpose of making the World a peaceful abode for all and equally shape it into right direction. 

The world has witnessed great destruction over the years as a result of the primitive and inhumane attitude and  roles of racial supremacists who hold the believe that certain race, country or ethnic group is superior to others,  their believe and opinion have inculcated the spirit of racism in some people and this has led to the high level of intolerance, bias and racial prejudice in human society. This among several factors has created havoc to human race and brought it into the state of lawlessness, unsecured and calamitious state it is today. 

REASONS FOR THE EMBRACEMENT OF RACIAL EQUALITY. 

Human race in its entirety need to embrace racial equality for the following reasons :

(1).  JUST AND EGALITARIAN HUMAN SOCIETY :
 Racism is is an act of injustice and a threat to fundamental human right and equality before the law.  Marthin Luther king Jnr in his opinion said "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere ", in order to bring just and nolmalcy back to human society hence the need for racial equality. 

(2). PEACEFUL COEXISTENCE AMONG HUMAN BEINGS:
The inability of various concern institutions to solicit and embrace peace has rendered havoc on human society. Human society need peace and for peace to reign, there is a need to put aside our differences and decry racism. 

(3). PREVENTION OF WAR: 
If the discrimination  and perceived trait of racial inequality continue its stride in our society, there will always be war especially between the oppressor and the oppressed races, to prevent war and for peace to reign in our society,  then we need to embrace racial equality. 
In achieving racial equality, there is a need to sensitize people on the importance of racial tolerance and equality as well as organizing campaign against racial inequality globally as well as sanctioning supremacists either individual or country by the international community. 

CONCLUSION
The need for peaceful coexistence among human being is not negotiable, we need to live together in harmony, in achieving this,  there is a need to eradicate the spirit of racial supremacy, we need to love one another and know that what is good for goose is also good for the gander and enshroud with the believe and feelings  that whatever affects  an individual, country or race equally affects us all as human beings. 

Our common slogan should be " love for all, hatred for none",  through this, we can achieve racial equality and bring back the lost peace and harmony among different races of the world.
