Racial tensions refer to conflicts and disagreements that arise between different racial or ethnic groups. These tensions can stem from historical injustices, discrimination, and social inequalities. They often manifest in various forms, including protests, violence, and social unrest, as communities seek to address perceived injustices. Factors contributing to racial tensions include economic disparities, cultural misunderstandings, and systemic racism. Events such as the Civil Rights Movement in the United States highlight the struggle for equality and justice. Addressing these tensions requires open dialogue, education, and policies aimed at promoting understanding and equality among all racial and ethnic groups.
