[QUOTE="Emelee, post: 174871, member: 73"] Ronald Reagan called Africans "monkeys" and that they're not wearing shoes to Richard Nixon. Nixon in return obviously agreed and thought it was funny. [URL]https://people.com/politics/ronald-reagan-called-africans-monkeys-call-richard-nixon/[/URL] No wonder there has been so much racism in the world when even the most powerful people in the world have been racists. We've come a bit on the way since the 70s, but hearing people yell "send them back!" as Donald Trump attacks 4 democratic African-Americans just goes to show that racism is still very much present in society. And still a huge problem. Call me naive, but I just don't know why skin colour is so important to so many people. Underneath the main layer of skin, we all look exactly the same. To me, racism is just as dumb as thinking animals with black fur are worth less than animals with white fur.
