The New Trend
There was a very dark spot in North American history when people were subjugated to ridiculous hatred and intolerance just because of the colour of their skin.

Thankfully, this time period has passed. Even though there are some individuals who still feel the same, our society as a whole has come to terms with the fact human beings are human beings no matter the shade of skin they wear.
Not only that, but recently society has celebrated those who used to be hated. How do I know this? I know this because of emulation.

Flattery is a good thing, but enough really is enough. Of course, we need to place blame. So who’s fault is it?
