Update.
It's a day as good as any other to visit this blog again.
------------------
This Pic of the Day's blog is only to remember that laws are not any 'sacred thing' that we have to respect and follow blindly.
We have a brain and a conscience to know what is right and fair, and what is not.
Some laws only can change if we break them.
Some laws HAVE to be broken.
Thanks for reading.

The world we are living in... T_T Some people are never changed
welcome back to de blog Mary =)
.
Well....no matter how much times change....life flows...people come and go to this world.. the laws of life are the same. Nither gender nor color difference is important. An no wonder that in the 20th century people explored the space....in the 21st one they learn how to wash hands...Soon we'll hunt to survive...Just the time to learn how to make bows with arrows. I guess we'll need this skill again. Life cycle rules.
MARY, Please have a look!
Here, Indonesian is heterogeneous. No discrimination here. :)
You are right, it is happening everywhere someway or the other even back there in native country discirmination is very much in the form of cast and creed and languages.
I got your point, MARY. We shouldn't hide us behind the laws, and use them as an excuse for our actions.
We have to question laws by using our common sense and humanity.
Rose, thanks for dropping by and sharing your thoughts.
As I said in previous comments, I put as an example some old discriminatory American laws but ofc stuff like this happened everywhere and still is happening. And it's not only about racial segregation, but all kind of unfair laws (gender segregation for instance is still very common everywhere). This blog is about not to take for granted that we have to follow laws just because they are 'laws'. Laws are not sacred and we can make them change.
Thanks again for reading and sharing your comment.
Estanis, thanks for dropping by. I'm glad to be on the Top of the EC "Rebels" :P
Mishaikh, thanks for your 'same color blood' explanation... I guess :/
I reply the same as in my previous comments, it's not about poiting fingers only at US. There are unfair laws everywhere, this was just an example.
Thanks for dropping by.
It was the dilemma in 60s in US, but it is still going on here one way or the other more especially under current regime. They don't see what comes out when cuts white or colored finger. Even when a white life is saved by the blood of a black. Pitty.
...but I think Americans can point Spain and Spanish people in the map already haha...
Nice blog. Agree.
Sorry, I forgot to add something. Racism is not only an American problem. Everywhere, also in Europe, and also in my own country, Germany, there are people which are against people because they come from foreign countries. The problem is increasing around the whole world.
I totally agree with Iris, this nefarious racism is a taunting global issue, I have lots of trouble trying to irradicate it from innocent lil' me. :-)
