Racism The Next 'Big Thing'?

        I recently read the article about how the two female students posted a video containing rather racist comments toward african americans. The real sickening thing about this article is the fact that many people saw this but didn't see anything wrong with it. I personally wonder why the principal didn't kick them out of school earlier, why it took so long for anyone to react. Maybe racism is beginning to seem okay again, like years of slavery never happened and it's a new concept dawning on people. People are starting to spew out racist comments not thinking twice about it "It's no big deal I know that guy." they'd say. But when does it turn from "I know that guy" to "he's just a stupid n*****". People have to start reacting faster and showing kids that racism is completely unacceptable. Everyone needs to try.
