Pokemon Go, ending racism?

For the past month everyone has been walking around by themselves or in groups because of one reason, Pokemon Go. Pokemon Go has changed the nation in a matter of days as we know it. Sadly the people in this world sees each other by their skin color. lately, that hasn't been an issue because of this one app that everyone seems to be playing, Pokemon Go. My personal opinion is that this is great for the community, better yet the world. I believe that since Pokemon came out such a long time ago everyone in their twenties and thirties fell in love with it instantly. People are actually noticing what I've been saying for years, we are not different, we aren't imperial than the next person. Im not african american Im not caucasian, Im just like you and your like me, Im a human being that inhabitants the same earth and breath the same air as you. Pokemon Go is making people look at others not with their eyes as an adult, but with their eyes of a child. As a child you love everything and everyone, as you grow into an adult you are taught to be racist you are taught to judge others. Pokemon Go actually sends everyone back to their childhood. If the world can continue to look at each other with our hearts instead of our eyes it would be a better place to live, wouldn't you agree?

With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
