HELP! : Aiuto!

A way to stop racism in Italy? 

Something that can for sure be done is look for a better government. A good government is supposed to represent the people in their country yet, the government in Italy doesn't. It seems to favor Italians as well... If the representative of the people of a country are in no favor, what so ever, of them (people suffering from racism), how can they expect to be helped when the time comes. For instance, when they are victims of acts of racism, of hate.... 

Racism is something that will never be abolished, unfortunately. But, with a strong community and a helping hand, it CAN be reduced. The U.N. (United Nations), can be that helping hand! They have the power to do many things! They represent THE WORLD! I am sure that if the U.N. is in favor of helping Italy change, they can make a difference. But, the people in Italy have to be up for the change. We can't force people to change. It is practically racism, not accepting people how they are... But, WE CAN AND WE MUST! Italy doesn't need money, or refugee assistance, no, they need supporters! Those people wanting to make a change can't do it on their own!

The U.N. can be a guide, to help get Italy back on track. To many, racism isn't such a big deal but, to other, like the people suffering due to racism, it is a huge deal. We may think that it is not important, we tend to think that because WE are not the ones suffering. We have to help, the U.N. has to help. We must make Italy beautiful on the outside and the inside. We must make it have beautiful architecture and amazing food and scenery, but we must also help it have beautiful people, the heart of the city. Italy with no people would be like a person with no soul. What distinguishes a country form other is not what food they have or what they believe in, no, it's the people that inhabit there, the ones that make the city come to live. For instance, take Puerto Rico. If we took out all the people, P.R. would be nothing less than a small country. But, if we add back the people, P.R. would shine, flourish. It would become this amazing city, filled with people dancing, sharing what we all have in common, our latin blood and flavor. If you take the people out of Italy, it would still have the colosseum and what not but, it won't have that special thing that make everything come to life! 

On the inside, we are equals. Many of us share the same interest. Just because some of use may be black or white, Latin or American, Mexican or Italian, doesn't mean we must hate each other. It's all the way around, we should find interest in each other, to see how we are so different, to see how we can learn new things! A country with racism is a country with no sky, people feel restraint, as if only the roof of their houses is the limit because they are constantly brought down on the way to the sky, to reach their dreams.... 

I find it illogical that something WITH NO MEANING can affect a person IN EVERY WAY...  
HELP ITALY BECOME BEAUTIFUL, INSIDE AND OUT!
