The first question I asked myself after checking out this blog was, what better way could we potentially teach our kids racism than to incorporate it into a computer game? As a young adult I have seen ways in which my peers have excluded racism from my life. Yet our society refuses to acknowledge the subliminal workings of racism that engulf our culture. I feel our society is doing a better job at excluding racism on a larger scale but until our younger generations learn to eliminate racism that seeps into the subconscious through video games, movies, or entertainment in general, we will remain stagnant in our pursuit to remove racism from our culture.
