In Act I of the Tragedy of Macbeth, we are introduced to the "weird sisters", which are witches. They are described as beings with ties to the "other world", with powers to affect people's lives and even the weather at will.

They represent Macbeth's tragic destiny, they foretell what will become of him: he will rise to be a king, but they also prophesy his demise, but that will become clear further in the play.

Why does racism still exist? What are some of the steps that would be necessary to eliminate racism, not only in Canada, but als
Ksenya-84 [330]
I believe that racism still exists because we were so used to shunning people of different races. When we had slaves and Abraham Lincoln put the Emancipation Proclamation in place the south was mad because that was how they made income, and it's not like we're going to get over the fact that they were once slaves. How are we supposed to treat people like human beings when they were just our slaves? I think that we have to start by showing others that we're all equal, we need to have them accept that fact that there is going to eventually be change.
