Many people would say that the incident that occurred on first floor Bernhart was blown way out of proportion. Many people would say that it was no big deal. Perhaps they would argue that it was just a single isolated incident, that should be forgiven and forgotten, a harmless prank. This is just not the case. .
Racism is still a serious problem.
We have all seen instances of it in our lives, but many lack the gumption to speak up in opposition to it. An instance of racism cannot be blown out of proportion, because racism in any form cannot be accepted. Hatred breeds hatred, and we must do all we can to prevent it, wherever and whenever we can. . I can cite an example from personal experience. In my high school in upstate New York during my senior year, a group of kids thought they would be cool and drive into school with Confederate flags flying from their pickup trucks.
