Existentialism is a Humanism Jean-Paul Sartre‚ 19451 My purpose here is to defend existentialism against several reproaches that have been laid against it. Existentialism has been criticised for inviting people to remain in a quietism of despair‚ to fall back into a the middle-class luxury of a merely contemplative philosophy.

Nowadays the political righteousness is another trend to reflect how the society is taking care of racism. How can we start from ourselves to eliminate racism?
