Humans are animals…

If we’re not socialized with other races while young, then we grow up thinking of other races as “them” instead of “us”. It’s instincts from when we lived in tribes and anyone that you didn’t grow up around was the enemy. But the same as a dog needing to be exposed to other animals while young so they’re used to them as an adult.

Which is why adult racists have an issue with non-segregated schools.

They want kids to grow up and be racist like they are. They want the next generation to only look as deep as skin color to determine if someone is friend or foe.

Same reason Alabama banned Sesame Street long after PBS had it in every other state.

The individual racists probably don’t understand it, but the ones leading the mobs understand the psychology behind this shit. Like how in American History X Ed Norton didn’t understand what he was doing, but the old asshole in charge was playing chess. Dont discount racists as idiots that don’t know any better. Some are actually smart and manipulating the mob of uneducated idiots.
