Thought-Provoking Video Shows How Racism Is a Serious Problem

The protests that have besieged Baltimore are the latest instance of how the issue of race relations continues to plague the country. It's a dilemma that has yet to be satisfactorily resolved.

The premise of this video is simple yet disturbing. Two people are in the exact same scenarios, but one person is white and the other is black. As the clip shows, with stats to back it up, black people are often at a disadvantage for no reason other than they're black.

We've been grappling with race for hundreds of years, so it's not like it will be resolved with the snap of a finger. This video simply illustrates the uphill battles black people have to fight, whether they're buying cars, applying for jobs or being stopped by police.

Watch the video. It'll definitely make you think.
