Racial Prejudice In some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has been taken for granted as a means of solving differences; and this is not even questioned. There are countries__1__ the white man imposes his rule by brute force; there are countries where the black man protested by __2__ fire to cities and by looting(掠夺) and pillaging(掠夺). Important people on both sides, who would in other respects appear to be __3__ men, get up and calmly argue __4__ violence -- as if it were a legitimate solution, like any other.
