“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”

– Nelson Mandela –

To put it bluntly. Racism is wrong. It is evil and it comes from the lowest depths of human behavior.
