Racism/homophobia have been around years . . and will remain for years. It gets lots more attention now because of the advances in media technology and (often) it is used to make the accuser look lilly white in a world of grey (can I write that? )

One of the worst things to help keep racism/homophobia alive and kicking is the constant exposure it gets, I think everyone knows it's a 'nono' by now, you don't need to shove it in our faces every 10 minutes. The more of it I see in the media, the more I lose interest in it.
