The Rules of The Game

We all must first agree that there is several different races all having their own cultures and beliefs. Without the differences, whether looks or religions, their would be no argument over bi-racial relationships because we would all agree about the same things. Therefore, in a moment where equality is not plausible, the idea of interracial relationships causes a controversy. After all, if we were all equal and the same, no one would have even the slight opportunity to be racist. Since we live in a world where no one is by definition "equal" to each other this leaves room for people to disagree and even look down upon people who think or look differently than themselves. This is where the argument of different races being "together" becomes reality. Now you may be asking yourself who the whole argument depends on or effects; in other words, who are the players of the game? The answer to this question is simple: EVERYONE. Whether we as humans realize it or not, everyone effects someone in multiple ways. Even if someone is not involved in an interracial relationship, the way they act towards others who may be involved or even just people culturally diverse from themselves changes someone else's life. In saying this, I challenge everyone to learn to respect one another as well as their beliefs and culture. Wouldn't you want someone to do the same for you?
