    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Racism is a society issues which faced in many countries in the world time to time. Most of the citizen in many countries, especially in America gets sensitive issue about racism. The leader of the Cuban Revolusion Fidel Castro (2001) stated that “This (racism) is a very serious problem in the United States”. America is a develop country with for about 323.1 million population consist of black and white people. As we know that, one of the main problems in America is about racism between black people and white people. Racism appears because of negative attitudes and thought to other races which is considered inferior. According to Hoyt (2012: 225) states that racism is the belief that all members of a purported race processes characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race. Someone can claim that other races are inferior because of their different color, language and the faith of particular race. It is determines the quality of culture and individuals to classify a race into a superior or inferior. The impact of racism may occur in education and in the court. The report from U.S. Department of Education (in Nittle, Nadra: 2018 ) states that black students are three times more likely to be suspended or expelled than their white peers, even they in preschoolers. According to the study published in Psychological Science indicates that it triggered by prejudices of white people who believe and perceive that black boys as threatening at just 5 years old, then associating them with adjectives such as violent, dangerous, hostile and aggressive (APS,2016 in Nittle, Nadra: 2018, para.

  • Newsletter | August 2017
    Newsletter | August 2017 SMALL GREAT THINGS by Jodi Picoult - Some books leave you thinking... this one gets you talking Recently, the High Plains Library District announced they would be bringing in New York Times bestselling author and book club favorite Jodi Picoult for the 2017 Signature Author Series. Her latest chart-topper, Small Great Things, will be the focus of the event. This is an especially exciting book in that it addresses some very difficult topics. Namely: Race in our culture and the biases that skew our views of one another as individuals. On the set of CBS This Morning, Picoult explained what an intimidating subject this has been for her to address, and how she had failed several previous attempts to base a novel around these themes. It may come as a surprise that an author who has not shied away from difficult subject matter including, but not limited to The Holocaust, hate crimes, and ethical questions surrounding cancer treatment, would find anything difficult to address. Nevertheless, conversations about race provide a special challenge in that a person can only speak from a single perspective. Picoult, herself, expressed feelings that this story may not be hers to tell. That it seemed difficult to write about the subject in a way that would not offend. Yet, to leave important topics unaddressed causes them to pressurize. And that is why the High Plains Library District is pleased to bring in a celebrated author who had the courage to engage in a difficult conversation. It is our hope that we and our users can share in that conversation and, as a result, bridge some of the subtle gaps between ourselves and others.
