A lot of negative things are going wrong in our society today, and people begin to see them like a normal thing in the society which they cannot change the negative things because they don't have people who are capable to end those things in the society.
You can make adifference by helping your society to eliminate the corruption, which is a major challenge many society are facing today and they have concluded that is a normal thing in a society.
If you have the opportunity to be a leader in you society, will you make the difference to end negative things from your society or you will allow the negatives things continue in the society? To me, If I have the power or influence, I will make a difference in my society to end negative things like corruption, insecurity and other things that are bad to society.
The topic is just race is too broad to be discussed under this heading. Before you will decide to continue with what you called negative things, you actually need to outline such negative things so that we wouldn't have to peddle down our discussion. Also those things you call negative things could be positive in order environment apart from where you are.
And as generation progresses some values are lost. Maybe some good values have been lost and the people you see concurrently no nothing about such good values. What they know is the things you call negative and they cannot give what they don't have. So whosoever knows nothing about positive value will not give positive value. So in order to make a nice decision, there should be a campaign to teach the new generation some of the lost positive values.
