Something I just don’t understand

Something that I don’t think I’d ever be able to understand is the point of racism. Like I don’t get why people choose to hate a specific group of people just because the color of their skin. What I really don’t get, is why it’s still such a big issue in the world. I mean it’s 2024 for goodness sake, why are black people still being treated less than? If God created us to all be in his image, why can’t we all treat each other with love. I personally have lost family members due to racism, and have been harassed myself and it’s something that will haunt me forever. It’s something that I want all of the world to move past, but that’s just wishful thinking. I know that there’s people who will never be able to love all men and women no matter the color of their skin, or background. If we all treated our neighbors the way that we want to be treated, I believe that there would be more peace and love. Less killings, less harassment, and less hate being put out and projected unto people. Maybe I’m missing something… but I don’t think I’ll ever be able to understand.
