The attitudes toward black people was very shocking to me. Black people were always wrongfully accused, and murdered for no reason. The people said that Blacks and Whites are equal, but really they are not equal. The only reason for segregation was because black people were viewed as inferior, and shouldn't share things with whites. It is already bad enough that black people have to put up wit this segregation and prejudice, but they also have to put up with physical abuse. Blacks are often killed or jailed because of racial reasons. Segregation of blacks is still going on today. For example, in Peru, black maids are not allowed to swim in some beaches during certain hours of the day. Even in the US, racism acts till occur. In a Walmart in Southern New Jersey, a person announced that all black people must leave the store.
