    In the article Race Cleansing in America, Peter Quinn writes about the rise of the eugenics movement. The eugenics movement involved a belief that sterilization and prevention of reproduction of those believed to be genetically inferior. The American Breeder’s Association’s motto of “emphasiz[ing] the value of superior blood and the menace to society of inferior blood” highly summarizes the motives and goals for those involved in the eugenics movement. Quinn discusses many examples of growth and usage of eugenic ideals in this article and speaks of its integration into legislative matters. The opening and continuous example used is the Supreme Court case Buck v. Bell.…

    One of the greater issues in America today is the controversy with nonwhite Americans being treated unequally within the justice system, mainly by the police. Most people try to ignore the fact, but others know and agree that the mistreatment of nonwhites is wrong. This will not be an easy issue to resolve, but the more aware society becomes of the issue, the more the people of the country can do to put it to an end. Michelle Alexander’s book, The New Jim Crow, discussed this overall issue. Her main argument is the War on Drugs has caused many problems for those who are nonwhite, especially with police officers and the justice system.…

    Haitians Pros And Cons

    Wilson Laleau, the Chief of Staff of Haitian President Jovenel Moise told the Miami Herald that President Moise will appeal directly to President Trump to request that the TPS be extended as Haiti is still dealing with the consequences of the earthquake that hit Port-Au-Prince, in 2010. Putting the earthquake aside which occurred seven years ago, there were ample opportunities in the ensuing years for the Haitian government to turn things around. In the last ten years, both the Preval administration (God Bless his soul- Rene Preval died a few months ago) and the Martelly administration were more interested in lining their pockets then helping fellow Haitians. It is rather ironic that Wilson Laleau the ring-leader of the Petrocaribe conspiracy is now telling American media about his government outreach to help Haitian immigrants.…

    I am very aware of the popular belief out there that, we live in a time of sharply decreasing faith in the criminal justice system. The historic mistreatment of African-Americans at the hands of the criminal justice system is widely acknowledged, and no one would agree that the vestiges of those tragic practices have all been removed. But no doubt in my mind that progress has been recorded. Americans have tried to address these problems over the years by requiring objective, race-neutral justifications for government actions within the criminal justice system. We have, for example, required that the jury representation be composed of a fair cross-section of the community.…

    A percentage of people can agree that “Racial Segregation” has been around for an extended time. It’s erroneous to imagine that more than a hundred African lives were changed due to the dislikes of Americans towards African Americans. Actions such as making separate facilities for black men and women is uncalled for. The definition or meaning of “segregation” is the physical act of being separated from someone or something. Therefore racial segregation is wrong in every way because African American men and women experienced oppression despite no longer being slaves .The…

    The Haitian immigrants in the United states have enjoyed their stay here, but sadly all good things come to an end at some point. The Haitians have been safeguarded by the Temporary Protection Status (TPS). This protection status will cease on July 20th, 2019. The U.S has to make a decision, on what to do with the Haitians after their TPS expires. A solution I propose to this problem is that United States should should distribute the Haitians to the Caribbean countries, that are allies to the U.S. Bill Nelson a senator from Florida, tweets on the United States current dilemma: “There is no reason to send 60,000 Haitians back to a country that cannot provide for them” (Nelson, 2017).…

    An individual’s interaction with others and the world around can influence, alter, one’s behaviour, actions and beliefs. However, various external factors influence an individual such as, positive and accepting environments an individual’s sense of belonging can enrich and expand, while negative behaviours such as exclusion and rejection might limit and restrict it; this in turn moulds one’s sense of acceptance and value of being. This idea is explored in the picture book, The Island by Armin Greder which analyses segregation and discrimination, and further alludes to the strong xenophobic culture and how such ideals can influence the experience of belonging.…

    Immigrants leave their native country in search for a better life and opportunities for themselves and their children. Many of these immigrants escape from poverty, violence, and war but still continue to face discrimination and difficulties. I learned that the government prevented ethnic minority groups from gaining a proper education and equal opportunity based on racial identity. For example, the Chinese in Canada struggled for over 100 years before the country granted them equal rights such as voting. The early Chinese settlers could have benefitted the Canadian economy and society through higher education and learning the language Chinese Americans, and Chinese Canadians were treated very similar in their host country.…
