Exploring In Colors

Why do minorities refrain from exploring....? Life in big cities are enough turmoil, with racism and prejudice at a maximum boil, Why would they venture out of their comfort zones when they get treated badly at home? Home is supposed to be where the heart is, but "everyday people" treat each other like garbage. From police brutality to modern day lynchings, eventhough it's the millenium, smart minorities haven't any misgivings or fantasies of life outside their world, because it is well quarantined by those who feel superior. When they feel threatened everything gets blown out of proportion as if outsiders have cholera, Although, the world is for everyone, respect and decency are only given to a priviledged few, Why would minorities want to make themselves fools?
