Project Goal: Ending racism in Guatemala

Root Cause: Children copy what elders do and if there is no one to tell that what is right from wrong, they will keep doing what they are doing thinking that it is the right thing to do. Root of racism is prejudice and ignorance which are instilled in people at very young age. So

Project Plan: What I plan to do is visit schools and educate them about racism and other various topic that would create awareness about racism issue that people face in Guatemala.
