How to kill a racist

I mis wrote my line "Sinhalese of this day and age are true Sinhalese
people"

I am not saying that this is today's situation, it is NOT. For SURE.

And it won't be until, we let them believe that.

If you wanted a child to stop doing wrong, you don't tell the child telling lies is very bad ah, you told lies, that day, stop it.


He will say I didn't tell lies? Right?


What you say is,

That aunty kumar's son, is terrible, he tells so much of lies.

The child will tell you, "no, no, he is a good boy"


Then, the child will go to school, and tell his friends, why don't we tell the truth for a change.

That is how human beings work.


I know they have racist ways, in fact I work with a mixture of them, some indifferent, some denying and racist" This is the ONLY WAY I CAN REACH THEM NOT BY FOWRRDING WHAT HAPPENED IN 83.

If some people today's young people, disagree, we have to tell them, for sure, to make them know what happened. But we cannot make them racist as well, because we are building one wall, against another wall.

In reply to:

Hi Ashan,
I'm sorry but i personally do not agree with your suggestion. It is easy for
us to believe that the Sinhalese of this day and age are true Sinhalese
people, however, there have been many instances that have proved otherwise.
The blame rests on both sides - Sinhalese and Tamils.

Isolating the present generation from what happened in 83 will not by any
means bring about a solution. I have learnt that at times the lack of knowing
our history, regardless of how brutal it was has caused a lot of
misunderstanding and bitterness.

It is only by educating our present generation of what was that we can truly
move on with healing.

Hope this makes sense

Regards
