what about the other side?

i just read someones post about how the issues in todays soceity will never be fully solved. and i wanted to expand on that becuase i completely agree with this statement. it almost feels pointless to even talk about our issues in society because while they may barely improve, they will never ever go away. i understand that talking about these problems are helping us become aware but it almost frustrates me because i know these problems will always exist. there are certain people in the world that will ALWAYS be racist against a race that isn't theirs. even though Gay marriage is now legal in new york state, that doesn't take away from the fact that people still completely disagree on it.

i also wanted to touch on something else...we always talk about whites being racists towards blacks. what about the other way around? for example, when Barack Obama was elected president, so many people said "you didn't vote for him because hes black." why wasn't anyone saying "you JUST voted for him BECAUSE hes black." i'm just making a little point here that i think a lot of people fail to notice.
