How can a white girl from a small town eradicate the KKK from my town? I would like to see cultural diversity.

you can go somewhere else if it bothers you that much. you can't control what others do but you get to choose what you want

I agree with your concept, however I hope because of the various barriers different races are breaking this will end. I really hate people saying I act white because I don't listen to rap music.

It simply cannot. I think culteral blending is horrible.I am keeping my white culture and sharing it with other whites to make it the strongest known culture out there. And I hate when non whites think were racist because of this, i dont want other cultures mixing with our cultures and corrupting our values, thats why when I have children they will go to the whitest possible school out there.

Like anywhere, you have racist scumbags all over.  Rural communities and some of the smaller cities in Utah have some racism problems, but SLC (which I live in) is very ethnically diverse and tends to be a lot more open-minded.  I would suggest sticking to downtown, West Valley City, Sugarhouse, Avenues or South Salt Lake areas as those are the most liberal and welcoming areas, as the more suburban areas can lean towards more exclusionary treatment of those not fitting the cultural mold.

it sounds simpler than it is...but here goes:  Just do it!  If it is important enough to you, you will find a way to accomplish anything you set your mind too.  If you truly do not want to overcome this character flaw, you will not find a way to rid yourself of your prejudices.....\nI am white, and where I live I would be lost without our black population, they are FAR more friendly and hospitable to me than ANY of the white people living here!!!!!

What' the saying; bird of the same feather flock together.  I don't think multiracial societies are the key to peace. About the only thing we do know for sure is where the cure has to start.  It has to start in the home, the basic building block for any community or country.  Nothing good will happen in your statehouse, or in your schoolhouse, if it does not start, and is not sustained, in your own house!

You could get involved as a Social Worker and then build on that to improve racial relations! Go for it! I am white and all for all races of people becoming simple a person and not catogorized by the color of one's skin! Good Luck!!!

Three things to make the PC SHeep People crazy\n\n1.  Have them refer to you as Danish American or whatever Europeran ancestry you have instead of being white or Caucasian.  Tell them white/Caucasian is an uneducated and racist term used to stereotype a divergent group of people.\n\n2.  Cite white/caucasian hate speech in rap by the artist and ask them what their plan is to eliminate anglo prejudice in rap music or violence against women in rap music?\n\n3.  Fill out all government and university paperwork as follows.  When they ask your ethnicity, check other and list your Euro-American heritage.  Ask the univeristy or federal agency how many say Danish Americans attend the university and, if you are in the minority, tell them you are in a minorty and want minority status and benefits.  If they tell you that you fall under Caucasian call them a racist for using a bigot term.\n\nUse the weapons of the enemy against them and they will crumble.

You may want to host an "ethic festival" for the school. It could be open to all the families or to the community. If you have access to a gym or cafeteria, each culture could have a table or area where they can display artwork, native dress, flags, crafts, writings, food samplings, etc. If there is a stage area, some groups may want to showcase  dance or music demonstrations. I have seen this done at the high school level and it was very successful.

Are you so sheltered to think southern white conservatives are racist or ignorant? We have all kinds, just like New York, but get with the program already. The KKK has always had greater membership in the north than the south since the 1920s & still does today. \n\nDr Rice would be a great candidate we'd love to vote for, but I fear she's too connected to the war. Powell on the other hand would be excellent. I think it's going to be Rudy though & a huge victory.

There are several things you can do:\n1) Write a letter to the editor of the Post\n2) Write your Representative\n3) Give time or money to a charity that helps victims like this.  My personal favorite is the Southern Poverity Law Center.  They provide free legal services to anyone that has been a victim of racial or religous injustice.  Below I provide some links about it's co-founder Morris Dees and information about the various programs that the Southern Poverty Law Center provide.\n\nI encourage everyone who reads this to think about how they can teach tolerance to a child today.

No. It was already in existance and has been for many years. You can see it in towns on the north side of San Antonio and Houston.I can also name a few other small towns that are not near big cities.The only difference between now and  about 55 years ago,white people try to hide it.They try to hide by accepting some token hispanics and blacks. The hate and discrimination is still there.It has nothing to do with anything else,,just the fact that a person is Mexican- American.

I'm glad that you asked this question to get us awared millie! Alot of people can't tolerate difference. Its human nature to do what we know how to do. But this isn't always the case. There are some that dive into difference to find out EVERYTHING about a culture. By just asking this question you are raising awareness.

Seeing as how you decided to use Yahoo Answers as a forum, allow me a moment to retort. \n\nIt seems that you are a bit confused....and I understand; you feel passionately about your point of view. I hope that you know that the people you've described here I'm sure can counter every single proclamation you've made, but will it help foster and facilitate a conversation that helps us all learn to understand each other? \n\nWill it help you to see and appreciate the many differences between our cultures that make us all ultimately the part of ONE HUMAN RACE? \n\nI hope so. I don't feel that only whites can be racists. That would be like saying that only white people are rich or educated. Its a blanket statement and its fear and ignorance that divides us. \n\nAt our core, we are all the same. We want to be safe and happy and live in a safe , thriving environment and wants the best for our families, friends, and loved ones. \n\nI appreciate you putting this question out here after all. Hopefully it would foster a conversation- the first step in understanding each other.
