The violent extremism that is seen on the other side of the world could be right next-door lying in wait to pounce and the CIA…

For as long as I can remember video games have been a scapegoat whenever violence is related to controversial issues involving adolescents. Whether it’s bullying, increased violent behavior, or the desensitization of violence, video games seem to get the short end of the stick whenever violence is involved. Unfortunately, we can also be quick to jump to conclusions and put the blame on a scapegoat instead of trying to find a true root cause such as role models, peer pressure, and teasing.…

men due to slavery was caused by the European teaching, that is men were taught to see Africans as unequal human beings. This was demonstrated in the movie, when suggestions were about treating slaves as property or livestock. Even the defending attorney of the Africans, Roger Sherman Baldwin, pitched the idea to make this slave case about property to the abolitionists who were trying to help the Africans obtain freedom.

People are harassed, humiliated, and suspected of committing crimes simply because of their race, religion, or ethnicity (ACLU.org).

Law enforcement, bankers, teachers, and even ordinary people are under the belief that this is okay. In order to…

He was introduced to the carpet cleaning industry at the age of twelve by his mother, who worked as a telephone solicitor for a small carpet cleaning firm. Due to the lack of barriers to entry in this industry (no licensing requirements, no apprenticeships to be served and only minimal start-up capital needed), it is not hard for anyone to start a carpet cleaning company. But at the same time, no barriers to entry meant that there was a cutthroat competition within the industry and it was not…

Today’s society is not able to truly comprehend the serial or the mass murderer. With no motive or connection to the victims, the violence does not make sense.

“Two hundred fifty years of slavery. Ninety years of Jim Crow. Sixty years of separate but equal. Thirty-five years of racist housing policy. Until we reckon with our compounding moral debts, America will never be whole” (Coates). Racism has been around for a long time, paying little heed to what improvements have been made with many barriers, yet to be taken away before complete equity is achieved.
