Cultural Violence

During football season, I witnessed a few acts of cultural violence. This is due to the different races of the players on the team. Overall everyone usually got along, but sometimes there would be discriminatory words said and fights because of that. This was usually between "white" players and "black" players. I broke a few up because it's stupid to fight your own team mates. This kind of cultural violence isn't as bad as say Hitler's hate of Jewish people and etc., but it is still verbal and physical violence towards different races of players. I feel that it is very wrong, even though I'm guilty of it in the past. No friendships were lost over this so, in the end, it's all good.
