In my opinion i don’t think racism is “limited” to just one area or one country, and even in one world we call earth, because believe it or not, racism does exist  in the Second Life online game too! Second Life is a virtual world where it enables its users, called Residents, to interact with each other through avatars. Avatars may being made to resemble the person whom they represent,  even being made into any form from the any kinds of  vegetables to worms, and from animals to minerals. Unfortunately, this one player named “Hunter Pearse” who chose to be a green alien was a victim of racism as the residents don’t want to share the public beach with him. Even one resident expressed his opinion: “Thanks a lot Chaotic Hermit, Hunter Pierce is a real alien and you’ve just sealed the fate of humanity!” Second Life is a free membership online game, you can signup at www.secondlife.com.
