Racial prejudice continues to exist in both covert and obvious forms, yet persistent minor actions produce significant social transformation. The first crucial move involves listening to racism victims while broadcasting their stories to others. Spread their personal stories through your social network to help people recognize racism first-hand. These discussions help to remove false beliefs about different groups and cultivate mutual comprehension between people.
Active resistance becomes necessary due to increasing hate speech activity. Address prejudiced comments with well-considered responses when you detect them online. Social media comments and editor letters serve to expose intolerant behavior. These actions demonstrate that discrimination has no place while inspiring other people to take a moment for reflection. The failure to speak becomes an endorsement of whatever harmful situation exists thus meaningful communication counts.

Perform self-reflection as a way to identify the biases within yourself. People should explore understanding different perspectives by reading work created by members from marginalized groups through both books and documentaries. Back the business owners from racial minority groups and champion equitable policy changes in your educational institutions as well as your workplace. These choices disrupt systemic inequities.
As a final step, establish honest connections with people from different racial backgrounds. Real connections dissolve social boundaries which create understanding between different groups of people. Multiple everyday activities which include listening, speaking out, learning and connecting will eventually form a collective opposition to prejudice. Our commitment to these actions will lead to the destruction of racism in each individual encounter and build a society based on justice and compassion.
