+		<h1>On Racist Jokes</h1>
+		<p>The use of the terms ``black'' and ``black slave'' as insults is:</p>
+		<ul>
+			<li>profoundly disrespectful towards the millions of black people that have been abused, discriminated against, and treated unfairly, in the past and the present</li>
+			<li>ill-considerate towards people who are experiencing racism</li>
+			<li>demonstrates a toxic and arrogant lack of empathy towards the disadvantaged.</li>
+		</ul>
+
+		<p>
+		A common argument to make here is that ``consider how you would be discriminated against when you become the minority, you wouldn't appreciate such jokes on your social group''. Although we head in the same general direction, I do not agree with this frame of mind. Discriminatory jokes are wrong, independent of the possibility of the discriminator being held to the same activities in the future.
+		</p>
+
+		<p>
+		The argument to ``take this easy as these are just jokes'' is ridiculous. The mere act of descriptive terms for a specific social group being used as a ``joke'' undermines the seriousness of the social issue. Find something else to joke about. Not something like racism and other forms of discrimination.
+		</p>
+
+		<p>
+		Also, directing hatred towards others who are supporting this cause and fighting against such behavior? If that's you, do you seriously think people are trying to make fun of you or what?
+		</p>
+
+		<p>
+		If you use these as jokes or insults, please re-consider your existence. As a student of a relatively good school with above-average education, you should know better.
