Christian Activism Analysis

Improved Essays
Here we go then, don’t take it to heart, it’s meant to help. My six of the best criticisms, over breakfast 
1. You advertise your forum as ‘Christian Activism’ and so you’ve just lost a political audience. Yet when browsing the site and attracting Christians, it largely reverts back to politics and so you lose both audiences.
2. It meanders topically, the home page which is your introduction to the site, jumps from one topic to another and it’s difficult to know what the site is about. I think maybe you ought to pull out a short six of the best, the articles that sum up your site and front page them; this is what attracts your audience. Very few are going to read your bio first, which you could condense to two paragraphs. Badly written

Never ever say, ‘I think’, or even give that impression.
Take BLM as an example
This will always start with the fact that blacks in the US are killed by the police in disproportion to whites. That’s true and so don’t try to argue against it. Build up an explanation of why, using facts.
The politics behind it
Who funds BLM (Soros), which radical politicians endorse it (Democrats) and the people who are paid to attend the protests (quotes from Facebook)
Conclusion: If it’s not political and about lives, why isn’t there the same outcry about black on black crime and deaths, which are also far more disproportionate to police killings and give statistics.
Dismissing racism as a cause and making it political
Give statistics of the amount of black middle-class Americans who aren’t being killed by their own race, or others. If the police are racist, why aren’t they killing the Chinese or Mexicans in proportion.
Conclusion: The large proportion of blacks killed are in Democrat run cities, which are also welfare disproportionate in numbers to other races and advocate alternative lifestyles.
Conclusion
It’s political; give Obama’s background, the people he associates with and his radical

    On February 26th, 2012, 17 year old Trayvon Martin was shot on the streets of Sanford, Florida, because he was perceived as threatening by local vigilante, George Zimmerman. Following Martin’s death, the nation was both shocked and outraged. How could something of racist nature occur here, in America? Yet this wasn’t the first incident, it was the first time the populace found out. In the United States, African Americans are two and a half times more likely to be killed by police than their white counterparts, though they may not even be committing a crime.…

    These are only five cases that are known, so many more may exist. At what point do we call to action the officers meant to protect us? Police brutality disproportionately affects African-Americans more than any other racial group in America. An FBI study of “justifiable homicide” shows that from 2005-2012, white officers used deadly force against a black person almost two times a week. Of those killed, one in every five was 21 years old or younger.…

    The importance of the constitution has been questioned recently by African Americans football players who have decided to take a knee during the national anthem at the beginning of the NFL football games. In reality, no one knows the experiences of a person of color. We all know there have been many incidents between police officers and African American males that have resulted in fatalities. We need to investigate whether race was an issue in these police-based shootings.…

    The perception of deadly force has been viciously debated for the last two to three decades. American police officers are taught to use deadly force if they reasonably believe that an individual appears to be an imminent danger to themselves or others. However, what makes someone look like they are a great threat to others? Is it their race or the clothes they wear or even the way they present themselves?…

    There is a racist remark as well, that blacks killed by police officers are more than likely white police officers. This is a false accusation as black and hispanic ethnic groups are more likely to shoot blacks than whites, this is according to the Justice department about the Philadelphia police department. This study was further conducted by the University of Pennsylvania Greg Ridgeway who majors in criminology and the final conclusion to the stats were that a black police officer were 3.3 times more likely to discharge a weapon at a crime scene. After 2015 statistics I can not argue against the point that I think that this is not a controversial topic but a stupid one which has progressively become worse due to social media and media itself.…

    In 2014, Ryan Gabrielson, Ryann Grochowski Jones and Eric Sagara performed a study called Deadly force in black and white and researched data that noted in the time frame of 2010-2012 1,217 killings that left civilians dead at the hands of law enforcement. The federal data showed that African America males ranging from the ages 15-19 were killed at a 31.17% per million rates as opposed to White Americans were only killed at a 1.47% per million person’s rate. For that statistic to equal out for a White American, 185 more White American teens in the age range 15-19 would have to die. That statistic states more than one teen would have to die per week just to equal the amount of deaths that African American teens are facing die to police firearms…

    The article I chose was a very unique one about the criminal justice system and how they treat people of color. Over the years black and Hispanic people have been harassed, beaten, caged, and killed by so many police officers you lose count. It talks about how statistically black people and white people use and sell around the same number of drugs, but black people will be 2.5 and 5.5 times more likely to be arrested. We only make up 13% of the population so how just is the justice system? Mass incarceration is one of the few things opposing black people besides the unjust murders done by police.…

    Racism has existed since the early 1600s when African Americans were first brought to America against their will to work as slaves. It wasn’t until the Civil Rights Movement, beginning in 1955, that the lives of African Americans started to transform and the U.S. Supreme Court began to terminate “Jim Crow” laws and ban segregation (“Civil Rights Movement,” n.d.). The main goal of eradicating segregation was to reach what is known as “racial equality”, which is the balance between all the races making everyone equal. Since the Civil Right Movement, our country has continued to make steps of improvement including, swearing in our nation’s first black president and the fact that black people and white people are now able to go to the same school.…

    Some people may say racism is dying on college campuses, but with the rise of police shootings towards black men and women racism is staying the same or even growing. However, some people think racism is fading from are races twining together and becoming less racist. On the college level racism still needs to be resolved, but due to the growing number of activists, the police having higher brutality towards minorities, and also from the political climate that encourages discrimination, racism is still growing. The brutality towards minorities by police has been grow the past few years.…

    The title of this visual is “Rate of Police Killings, African Americans vs. All Other Races”. The visual is from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Center for Health Statistics.

    The Black Lives Matter movement (BLM) is one of good intentions, but a variety of flaws. The execution of BLM tends to be one that is counter-productive. The creators of the movement state that it is one that “…is an ideological and political intervention in a world where Black lives are systematically and intentionally targeted for demise. It is an affirmation of Black folks’ contributions to this society, our humanity, and our resilience in the face of deadly oppression” (Black Lives Matter, 2016). The Black Lives Matter movement began after the death of Trayvon Martin when George Zimmerman was acquitted, and individuals felt a desire to bright to light the evident issue of anti-Black racism in our country (Black Lives Matter, 2016).…

    Prejudice or racial tensions have become a fore fronting scapegoat for police brutality. Individuals have accused police officers and vice versa of being racists and treating them of lesser quality as other races. “Although black men make up only six percent of the U.S. population, they account for forty percent of the unarmed men shot to death by police this year.” (Kimberly, Fisher, Tate, Jenkins) That means that African-American males create a little over half of the population shot by police officers this past year.…
