Description on the picture
It was a hot and sultry afternoon. The waves rushed towards the shoreline and slowed down just before reaching it, hitting the shore gently, and pulling back. The beach was full of people in their swimsuits, some on land, while some were wading in the shallow water. There were two people looking as though they were having fun in the wet sand, a father and a son, both wearing matching swimming trunks, both hunched, concentrating on building something out of the mud that they had dug out from the surroundings. It was a place of fun and excitement, and accompanied by the beautiful scenery, it was the perfect place to be.

Comic Strip for Home Learning


I chose this topic because I observed an increasing number of racist jokes amongst my friends. It appears that around the world, there is always this form of discrimination against anyone whos skin is black. Not necessarily indian, which shows that this is only discrimination against black skined people, although its worse if you're an Indian/African American.
However, I do not understand the reason behind these prejudicial thoughts. Because we all are humans after all, and I have put across my idea in this comic strip, that we are all equal, regardless of race or religion
