Ethnic Minorities

People in society have become marginalised, where certain groups of people depending on the colour of their skin tend to live in certain areas of the UK.

This is more apparent in London, where groups of people have been segragated in relation to the colour of their skin. This isn't necessarily down to the coour of their skin but more about finding people of their own kind and creating a society out of that.

So who's at fault for this divide between people? The ethnic groups themselves or society in a larger sense for pushing people away?

The British government is forever making promises to promote multi-culturalism by introducing policies. But introducing policies will not automatically mean that people will become more tolerant or understand different cultures better.

We need to learn about each other and the cultures that we come from in order to truly become a multi-cultural society.
