How bout that? Not just black on white or white on black, but Indian vs Asian, or maybe even sexism, male vs female as a topic. Show the ignorance related to the topic. Show also the rhetoric and coincidentally enough the "propaganda" associate therein.
I think it is a good topic. Whites are segregated against, blacks are segregated against, women, Asians, Indians, whatever..there is always going to be a situation (usually political) where any race or sex on earth is persecuted no matter what.
I'd rather not see this as a challenge topic in the immediate future though. It has a definite political bent to it, same as propaganda will have for most people.
I'd rather, if this were to be a challenge, it not be one of the next ones.
Why do something like this here? We have racism in our everyday life. A challenge like this could single out some members, or even let some of them feel the racisms here as well as what they face everyday.
How about "prejudice". Or some other more generic term which includes other aspects of segregation, bigotry, persecution, etc., and would allow for more widespread applications, such as those zeuszen pointed out.
Though, it would lead to a lot of contention. Often times both sides of a conflict will feel like the "persecuted" party...
I hope problems would be minimal....after all we want to have racism as a topic so that we can unmask racism in its own skin (essentially condeming it of course), and not having a challenge to take a racist photo i guess...
