The past

Racism and prejudice has always existed among man, but in different shapes depending on the time in history. The fear of the unknown is a natural reaction. Throughout the history people have made borders and strong defenses to keep strangers out. In the effort to keep strangers out people are developing still stronger and more effective weapons. This striving toward safety has started several wars and killed millions of people.
