I've come across some snobbish Indians and Pakistanis who look down upon Bengalis, South Indians , Sri Lankans etc and make fun of their accents, their skin colour etc. The worst part is they think they're doing something natural, because no body dares to question them or reprimand them.

It's disgusting . It makes me wonder : Is it a crime to be born in a place which others don't like ? Do looks really matter that much ? Why is there so much discrimination amongst us, Muslims - the best Ummah ? I feel helpless at this mindless prejudice that goes on because these people who get discriminated against develop an inferiority complex and feel that they are worth nothing.

I don't know how we can help the older generation, but we can atleast teach our younger generation to respect & love every person , regardless of his/her nationality or skin colour. Encourage them to be friends with people of all races. Parents should avoid addressing people from other countries usiig derog terms in front of their children. Children imitate what parents do...so, if parents rectify their behaviout then InshaAllah, there will be some hope for the future generations to grow up as tolerant individulas.
