Afrocolombians
The skin color is relative, it does not define who you are; but sadly, in this time and in this country it totally the opposite.
Afro people are discriminated and exempted from the society, making that 76% of them live in poverty, 42% are unemployed and only 2 out of 100 young go to college. This statistics shows that Afrocolombian people have no opportunity to excel because of the discrimination and the racism that exists in Colombia, and how, sadly, this people represent an inferior role in the country.
Fortunately, there are people that recognize this fact and want to help, like the Observatorio de Discriminación Racial, who research and discuss the practices of the racism and develop ways against it. Also, there are people who make campaigns and protest against the racism, achieving that more people unite to this noble cause and leaving this problem to the past. If each and every one of Colombians realize that we are equal and that the skin is just a color, we'll be a better country with opportunities for everybody.
