Race in the United States

The critical race theory for regulating hate speech online corners on the preservation of human dignity amongst hate speech on the internet. These theorists propose internet regulation, or limiting the ability of hate groups to post their agendas or views online, as a solution. In the eyes of a critical race theorist, hate speech online has the potential to incite violent acts and perpetuate a culture of oppression through politically charged rhetoric. This theory recognizes innate power…

Army Signal Corps only five days before the signing of the armistice that ended World War I. He also started developing liquid-fueled rockets in 1921; yet he had not been taken seriously by the public.[19] Von Braun and his team were sent to the United States Army's White Sands Proving Ground, located in New Mexico, in 1945.[20] They set about assembling the captured V2s and began a program of launching them and instructing American engineers in their operation.[21] These tests led to the first…

According to the Census Bureau in 2010, “there were 42 million poor people in the United States,” and a large portion of those who reside in the middle class are approaching the poverty line, thus, augmenting the amount of people who live in the lower class. As a result, income inequality has become a paramount topic in recent times, especially in the 2016 election. In addition to politicians and other government members discussing this gargantuan issue, professors, journalists, and others have…

Mexico and United States relations are vastly intertwined however; the major interaction between United States citizens and Mexican immigrants began in 1917. The first bracero program took its form under the Immigration Act of 1917. This act allowed immigrants, under various provisions and expectations, to migrate the United States as laborers in factories, fields, and mining. The Act specifically asked for a tax to be paid for every “alien” who is not traveling with parents and is under the age…

During World War II, the Soviet Union (USSR) and the United States (USA) were allies, however, in 1947 suspicions began to grow between the two countries. This sparked the strategy of containment of the USSR by the USA under President Harry S. Truman. This strategy of containment eventually led to the Cold War and the atomic age. The atomic age was a time when the USA prepared to use military force, even nuclear weapons, to contain USSR expansion, and the USSR prepared to use military force,…

but also something that he followed. Kennedy was the United States of America’s 35th president. Although he was only in office for almost 3 years, many still believe he was an effective president and got much done in that time. Kennedy accomplished many things in his two years, which lead to his great success as a president, such as making the Peace Corps, instilling fitness programs in certain schools, and challenging the nation to win the race to space. Even before Kennedy was elected…

Stereotypes are very prevalent in the United States today. Throughout my life I have seen these stereotypes. In high school, I went to a predominantly black school and I witnessed not only myself, but also my friends being put into a certain group because of our skin color. When we would go play basketball we would be known as the “white boys” and all people thought we could do was shoot. I thought that maybe it was because they had never seen us before, but then my opinion changed. I was always…

Racism In America Today many people find themselves drawn to the news and stories publicized on media.

Racism tends to be a topic that is frequently discussed and publicized. The question however, is why? Slavery ended so why is racism such a heavily discussed topic in society today? Any conversation, paper, argument, or discussion can begin…

and blue states. To be clear, red and blue states do not represent partisanship, but rather the way a state voted. While the numbers and data of Table 3 show that red and blue states are generally on the same page in terms of ideology, there are some discrepancies in Fiorina’s methodology. For one, it appears that Fiorina’s data is compiled by averaging the responses of blue states and red states. This artificially creates a purple America and distorts the data as blue states and red states are…

The United States of America is a republic government, ran by the three branches of government, executive, legislative, and judicial. They all have their own purpose and checks each other to have balance and makes sure what they’re doing is constitutional. The best president of the United States to my opinion is John F. Kennedy. John F. Kennedy was the 35th president from January 20th, 1961 to November 21st, 1963. John did not get to finish his first term in office because he was assassinated…
