Describe racism and how racial discrimination over time has led to Black Lives Matter movement.

Racial discrimination has been around since white people came into contact with black or other people of colour. Racial discrimination or racialism is the belief that the human race can be divided into different races based on skin colour, country of origin and other feature that make people different. Racism is the belief that people from different groups are believed to be more important or of higher or lower status than people from other groups. For example: the most common form of racism seen in the world today is the relationship between white and black people. There is still a lot of people that believe and act on the belief that black people are not as important as white people. They believe that whites are smarter, more civilised and superior. Overtime, laws have changed and many people are trying get equality for everyone.
