Racial discrimination in the novel “Black Like Me” is the main conflict/problem that affected people’s attitudes. It was reflected to people not by their performance or how they lived but they were judged directly according to their race differences (and they have nothing to do about it). It affects mostly to people that had experienced this on their acts, thoughts and beliefs. Blacks just ignored the discrimination that the whites are calling/doing to them. They ignored it because they felt/thought that if they will fight back, it will be held against them and will lead to genocide. Some restaurants/establishments segregated the whites from blacks. They do not allow some blacks just to enter their building and get some free use of washroom unless they intended to do “business” with them. Some white people said that blacks are used only for jobs that are too much to be handled by whites. But as more and more intelligent and wise blacks began to care for their race’s dignity, they were starting to rise step by step. They were able to find solutions to solve their problems. They were able to have their own loaning company to help those that wants to start a new different life. They won’t buy something from a store unless they hire some blacks to sell their goods. And finally, they changed some of the white books and teachers in institutes that are more focus on white heroes with black teachers and books that contain black heroes like Martin Luther King and more so that they can influence their little ones to have more confidence and strength in their everyday lives.
