In the early days before the existence of all the big cities and the likes, all areas were rural and everyone was happy living in their respective home town. This was very simple and promoted development as these people were united by a common culture. This however changed with time and people started moving around and mixing cultures. The results of racism in sports media many and quite detrimental.
The creation of large cities and urban centers in some parts of the country made people to migrate to those parts of the community in search better opportunities at life. Their assumptions were that these urban centers had so many money making opportunities that they could not fail to get one. On reaching these places however, the reality sunk in these people was really frustrated at that.
The mixture of cultures in these cities created a complex situation of coexistence. This was not received so well by many people and it led to treat other cultures differently from their own. Different characters and habits developed within the people. This was a community without a common identity or any other unifying factor, cooperation was hard.
Nepotism is one of the commonest vices in such places. It is a tendency for people to favor people with whom they have relations over the other especially in terms of offering employment opportunities. The bosses in the major offices favor their family members by offering those jobs simply by the fact that they are related and not basing on competence on the job.
Tribalism and tribal favoritism were also popular in these cities. Majority of people preferred to associate with only their tribe and these made sure only those related to them got the major deals and opportunities in the community. This created a situation of conflict and disagreement between the people forcing them to treat each other indifferently on tribal basis.
Tribalism was as well very common in these cities. Most favors and big promotions were don not basing on performance but rather the tribe that one affiliates with. This was very bad for business as most people did not hire for competence but rather on the basis of family race and tribe as well. Corruption also became very popular in the places forcing the police to take counter measures in order to halt this character.
Racism became another major problem in these large cities. People favored those of their race more as compared to the people of other races. These same people also liked to work with the people of their own race as well. Sports were also affected by theses habits. The teams in the various sports activities offered players opportunity to showcase their skills basing on the color of the skin.
This situation created such problems as the media houses were at the fore front of the racism vice. A certain media house would make it a point to discredit the players that are from other racial affiliations. This challenged the sports industry and almost crippled if it were not for legal interventions.
