INNOCENT WHITE PEOPLE THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PAST. YOU ARE INCITING HARM ON THEM. You're the one whose sick here buddy. You just want to try to prove your racism based off of PAST ACTIONS.…

For several decades now in the United States, racism has been a huge problem in our country. Typically, African Americans have been the bigger part of racism. However there are other races that are included as well. “In a new nationwide poll conducted by CNN and Kaiser Family Foundation, roughly half Americans -- 49% -- say racism is a “big problem” in society today” (Sholchet para. 5). The color of our skin does not and should not determine what our future looks like, and we should take a…

Many activist did a good job fighting racism and they made big change. However, racism has been going throughout the world for many years, because there are over billion people in this world with different thought. I am strongly against with people who thinks we are different based on our race, because it is against God’s creation. Racism can be saying offensive words, and bad behaviors against another race. First of all, racism is sin. In the Bible, James 2:8-9 says, “If you really keep the…

“We have made enormous progress in teaching everyone that racism is bad but where we seem to have dropped the ball is teaching people what racism actually IS” (John Stewart). Racism is a form of oppression. It is also a belief that some inherited characteristics, such as skin color: makes people feel inferior to their oppressors (Selfa, 2016). Racism has taken many forms throughout American history. The most notable form of racism in America was the enslavement of African Americans. During this…

Racism is the belief that one’s race, skin color, or more generally, one’s group, be it of religious, national or ethnic identity, is superior to others in humanity. It has been part of the American landscape primarily since the European colonization of North America beginning in the 17th century. Various groups have bore the brunt of it, manifested in discriminatory laws, social practices, and criminal behavior directed toward a target group. The following are a list of just a few and their…

happening since the beginning of time; and will most likely not stop any time soon. Martin Luther King made a huge difference within the racial section of America; and President Obama made a controversial decision to make same-sex marriage legal in all 50 states. Even though great people have taken huge strides to make a difference in the world, equality is still something that is not fully in place. I see it every day, and at my job, I am expected to treat every customer with the same amount of…

I asked one of my friends, Abby Hatley, on her opinion about an issue in the South today. She began by stating, “The South has a thriving culture, but it also has its downfalls.” “I believe,” she said, “that the South’s biggest issue is on race.” Abby said, “I say race because many people that the South is not racist; however it can be in many different ways.” “Although majority of the South is white but there are many other race groups,” Abby stated. “Throughout the history of the South there…

The New Jim Crow starts off by basically saying that racism is not dead in the United States of America. Color blindness today is just as bad as slavery or the Jim Crow used to be. It has to lead us into a new era. The era of mass incarceration and the new Jim Crow. The people that think equality has been reached because African Americans can vote and have jobs fail to notice that so many African Americans reality is not how most white Americans perceive them. They fail to see that race is still…

population in the United States of America has an IQ of between 83 - 100. 113 is the max common. So, consider that for a minute please. Most of the people in America are barely above being borderline mentally disabled. Yes, I know I am being a little harsh here but take facts into account, put things into context. Now, also take into account that racial acts occur everywhere ever few seconds out of every day, not just in the South, and usually who is it that is speaking about racism? Is it a…

Martin Luther King Jr, one of the greatest orators that American has ever had is well known for his fight against racism in the United States of America. During his life, Luther King led the black Americans as well as other like-minded Americans of all other races to reject the racist mistreatment that the Black people were going through under the hands of the white Americans. In his speech that he made in 1963, Martin Luther King stated clearly that “I have a dream that my four little children…
