This concept of racial profiling has been around for long time already, and the people that can do something about this just let it pass like it’s not important. There are many cons to the racial profiling for example: racism, unethical, racial tension, statistically. These cons cause many problems in our society around any neighborhood. Then we have racial profiling by law enforcement officers , or “using race as a factor in conducting stop, searches, and other investigative produces”( Bush 2001). This major problem in the united states and possible the whole world has cause this sensitive subject to become a worldwide attracted.…
The Tinker standard that came from this case was a great thing because it said that schools can regulate speech only if they believe it will cause a substantial disruption. Thankfully, after this cased was decided, schools’ regulation of freedom of speech and expression was more…
Zero tolerance policies were originally meant to enforce that a school will not stand behind a particular thing not matter what, but some of the policies have become more of a way to get rid of people than to benefit others. In Pushout by Monique W. Morris, Morris discusses zero tolerance policies and their effect on African American girls in school. She wrote about a six year old girl who had a tantrum in class. This girl was handcuffed and then kicked out of school passed on the zero tolerance policy. This girl is six.…
In an already declining school district and community, handling problems discretely are the most effective way to manage these situations. Ultimately student discipline is a controversial issue because it almost always involves contradictory professional, political, and ethical dilemmas. It is important to remember who are…
Teachers need a lot more support and training for effective discipline and the school system need to apply their best practices for behavior modification to keep the children where they belong and that is in school. Keeping “tough” children can be hard for teachers under the pressure of meeting certain measures, however the teachers have control of whether a child falls into the school to prison pipeline. Teachers know their students, and this puts them in a position that they can keep trying their best to keep students in the classroom. When teachers take a more responsive and less aggressive approach, kids are more likely to react positive as to just punishing them for minor offenses under the zero-tolerance…
The President’s order, banning Iranians from entering the US, had a direct impact on me and my family. It meant that I would not be able to see my daughter and husband in the unforeseeable future, unless, I quits the school and went back home for good. I was devastated and overwhelmed. Immediately, I called home. As soon as I heard Adam (my husband’s) voice, I started crying and said, “What do we do now, I wish I had never left the home, I wanted to go back, I can’t be separated from my…
Law enforcement officials use profiling as part of their daily routine, thus giving them an indication of criminal behaviors, acts, threatening and/or dangerous situations. Although profiling is a part of human nature and has been around for decades, it was not until the 90’s that profiling became a major focus and concern in America, separating the two into: criminal profiling and racial profiling. When comparing and contrasting the two, criminal and racial profiling, it is difficult because both have separate yet equal meanings, but are both described as a form of profile in itself. How do they relate? Before the question or situation can be accessed or addressed it is imperative for the officer to take prior training into consideration,…
Zero tolerance policy requires school officials to hand down specific, consistent, and harsh punishment, usually suspension or expulsion when students break certain rules (Lawyers.com, 2018). If a student break the rules, teachers are not going to tolerate it. They are going to throw the student out of the class for misconduct. This is an example of structural violence because power is all within school administrators such as: Teachers, Principal, Dean, and Security Guards. These school administrators can decide what is legal and illegal.…
Have you ever thinking about is racial profiling bad or not? This question is always an argument that people like to talk about. And in my opinion, I said racial profiling is wrong. Because racial profiling doesn't work, it prevents police from serving the entire community, and it is a blatant violation of the fourteenth amendment. So, I think racial profiling is bad and it should to be stop.…
Schools are changing. Schools are not the same as they used to be. Schools can be dangerous. Thomas White writes, “These days, school districts cannot take lightly any written or verbal threats, which years ago may have been ignored” (1). Between “Zero tolerance: Strict policy is necessary, misunderstood” by Thomas White and “Zero tolerance: School-to-prison pipeline must end” by Victoria Middleton, the article written by Thomas White is more convincing and persuading.…
Racial Profiling Racial profiling: the practice of assuming that one has committed an offense on the sole basis of their race or ethnicity. More often than not, racial profiling also goes hand in hand with police brutality and corruption. While repudiation of the argument that liberal media outlets make the effort to observe police-minority interactions through untainted lenses by hyperbolic perspectives difficult, the recent abundance of questionably handled cases within the United States involving people of minority groups and police officers has nonetheless incited national debates over what changes need to occur in order to have a more efficient policing system. The American justice system must take the initiative to put an end…
The reason that schools have policies and procedures in place is to ensure the safety and well-being of any student of the school, any school staff i.e. teachers, teaching assistants, head- teachers etc. and any outside staff such as cleaners and any sort of contractors. Policies and procedures are also in place to support staff in managing difficult situations such a violent or threatening behaviour. It is adamant that staff familiarise themselves with all policies and procedures and the school must make sure these are all easy to find and accessible to all staff at all times.…
Is racial profiling a real thing, or is it not? This is a question a lot of people are asking themselves. People sometimes wonder where this “racial profiling” takes place. Does it happen only in certain areas or even in your own neighborhood? Here are the facts about racial profiling.…
Racial profiling is defined as the use of race or ethnicity as grounds for suspecting someone of having committed an offense. Racial profiling encourages the perpetuation of racial stereotypes therefore it will lead to an estrangement of the races. Unless you are a minority, you most likely have never experienced racial profiling. Since the election of Barack Obama as President of the United States, Americans have fallen into a state of delusional thinking by which they believe his being elected eradicated racism as well as prejudices and unfair treatment of minorities. It is not my purpose to accuse all white people of being racist or bigoted, but it would be foolish to assume that these attitudes do not exist or that they are not more prevalent than many people would like to admit.…
The world we live in today is empowered by technology. Everything people do all around the world is shared socially online with one another. While this has many advantages, it can leave peoples judgement in the wrong direction in certain situations which can lead to racial profiling. Racial profiling is when an individual has accusations of a person who they feel threatened by or have suspicion of committing a crime. From a symbolic interactionist perspective, this is a serious social problem that has been around for such a long time but is getting much attention now because of the innovation of technology and internet over the past decade.…
