Racial steering is when people treat others differently based on their skin color or race. Sometimes, when people are trying to buy or rent a house or apartment, they might find that the real estate agent shows them houses only in certain neighborhoods depending on what race they are. This is not fair because people should be able to live wherever they want without discrimination based on their race. It's like when you're playing with your friends, you don't want to be left out or treated differently just because of how you look. It's important to treat everyone equally and with kindness.
