analog...the discussion is about the article and about sometimes how people put other people "in a box" or discriminate against, on the basis of their color, religion or ethnicity. basically, why is it like that when most people aren't what other people make them out to be?
i think everyone at some stage is guilty of that at some time in their lives.like it or not, its part of you.
why we put people "in a box" is because it's the only way we know how.it can however be a dangerous thing when it goes too far. what i'm trying to say is that putt ing people in a box, is not nessicarily a bad thing because that is the way we differentiate between them but, when you do it in a way so as not to discriminate against them because they are a different color or religion or belong to a different ethnic group. for example...if i were to speak about muslims and make a statement saying that because you are a muslim, you are a terrorist( please dont get me wrong, im only making an example) or ...all black people of my country(yet another example) are corrupt.then i would be discriminating against religion in the first instance and race in the second instance.hope you get what i'm trying to say...
as for the article it was really good of them to help eachther out.i think that when a tragedy like this happens, all biases tend to go out the window. helping people in any way you can despite whoever they are becomes more important.life is way too short to have all taht hate inside you.
