As with all difficulties in life, your best solution will be to ask for divine assistance. That will ensure you have a full array of potential solutions working on the problem and to bring greater understanding and awareness to create an effective path forward to get beyond the current difficulties and restore a balance in things, so hurt feelings can heal and progress made in human relations with a true advancement of society. When there are racial tensions, there are racial biases in play, or the attempt to instill them or inflame them, this creates just as many problems among innocent people as would be true for dyed in the wool racists suddenly thrust together with a racial group they disparage but are forced through the evolution of more egalitarian cultural norms to rub elbows, so to speak, and will be quite unhappy.
Here again, we have the problem of beliefs on display, that for people to become friends and even be chummy in their day-to-day interactions requires them to grow beyond the legacy of fear and suspicion about other races that is almost universal at some point during people’s lives—that is because it is seen to. It is not only that racism exists and people pass it down from generation to generation, they are also passing along their aspirations and their desires for a fair and equitable sharing where all are honored, all are respected, all have a place, and all have a means to have a livelihood where they can live in a safe and productive environment regardless of their race, and are also not dragged down by racial prejudice of others expecting them to join in, to create pressure on members of another race whether to exclude them, diminish their reach and influence, or to punish them for perceived past wrongdoing. Racism will not end until people can surrender the need for such beliefs.
