Even though the world has progressed greatly in the last couple of decades, both socially and technologically, racism, hatred and prejudice still exist today, deeply embedded in old-fashioned, narrow- minded traditions and values. Nowadays, we are tired of seeing in the media violent cases of racism, prejudice and social stereotypes towards different groups, whether foreign, gay, disabled or any other condition that is different from that of oneself. WHAT IS RACISM? Racism is a form of discrimination; Is the hatred of one person by another — or the belief that another person is less than human — because of skin color, language, customs, place of birth or any factor that supposedly reveals the basic nature of that person. It has influenced wars, slavery, the formation of nations, and legal codes. Biological racism Direct and Cultural indirect Racism Say the word “racism” and many people imagine someone in a white hood, but discrimination, which comes in different types, is TYPES OF much more complex.

Environmental racism is the practice of environmental injustice within a racialized context, in which socially marginalized communities and minority groups are subjected to denial of access to sources of ecological sustenance such as clean air, water, and natural resources, or infringement of environmentally related human rights. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, environmental justice is "the fair treatment for people of all races, cultures, and incomes, regarding the development of environmental laws, regulations and policies. IS RACISM AN INHERITED OR A LEARNED TRAIT? ARE PEOPLE BORN WITH ANY PREDISPOSITION TO DISLIKE PEOPLE WHO ARE VISUALLY DIFFERENT FROM THEM? NO Children of families who educate from an equality standpoint do not naturally discriminate. That is, children observe their surroundings and make statements about them, but the children who are educated to accept and celebrate all use their judgement for positive reinforcement. Racism is completely a learned behavior. It is how our immediate society confirms and reinforces, or denies and neutralizes these processes what makes a difference in our formation of systematic judgement values. WHITE GUILT White guilt is the individual or collective guilt felt by some white people for harm resulting from racist treatment of ethnic minorities by other white people. White guilt has been described as one of the psychosocial costs of racism for white individuals along with empathy (sadness and anger) for victims of racism and fear of non-whites. "ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL" - Declaration of independence of the United States RACISM WRONG HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION Racism in the United States can be dated back to the early days when Native Americans were normally attacked and forcefully assimilated into European ways of life. Even though Americans‟ civil rights have greatly improved over time, especially when America elected its first African American president, Barack Obama, racism has still a strong presence. Even if constitution makes it clear that all men are equally created, African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, among other minorities, were not getting this sort of treatment. … HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION … In the 19th Century, during the era of Civil Rights Movements, numerous groups were formed with an objective to fight off inequality. Groups pursued to protest towards gaining equal rights and Civil Rights leaders participated in a peaceful demonstration against racism. BLACK PANTHERS SOME EXAMPLES: ROSA PARKS MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. WHY IS AMERICA SO RACIST? Stereotype is among the causes of racism in America and through TV, radio, music, books, and internet, the WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT? possibility of stereotypes to occur are high. Parents, willingly or unwillingly, expose as well as educate their kids, subconsciously, through saying comments or else watching programs which entail racism. Total unfamiliarity of a person towards different races. Individuals possess the inclination towards fearing whatever they are unable to understand. Studies have presently alleged that it is imperative for kids to be around different races at an early age; towards ensuring that there are used as well as adapted towards being around them. While significant progress has been seen in eradicating racism in the United States, there is still job to be done DONALD TRUMP As we all know, America is run by the president Donald Trump. Many controversies regarding the new president followed the elections on the 8th of November 2016, leading a lot of people to accuse him of misogynistic and racist behaviors. Donald Trump is always in the spotlight for his racist comments and political decisions. The definition of a racist — the textbook definition, as Paul Ryan might say — is someone who treats some people better than others because of their race. Trump fits that definition many times over: WHAT HAS TRUMP DONE ? DONALD TRUMP The president often states that he‟s the “least racist person you‟ve ever met” but sources show us the president telling inappropriate racist jokes, sentences and overall showing a conservative and intolerant view of the issues in the United States. WHITE PRIVILEGE White privilege refers to the ways in which white people benefit from the fact that they are not a racial minority. White privilege extends into every aspect of our social and cultural lives, but it can also be a challenging concept for many people. This topic is always been difficult to talk about because most people won‟t recognize their privilege, thinking it means to be racist. White privilege finds its foundations into prejudices that have been existing for centuries and influenced the social view on minorities. American Justice For example, black people are more likely to get pulled over by the police, being followed in stores and being questioned about their education only because of their race. Even today, white people will get a lighter sentence on the same, or even a lighter crime, over a black person . EXECUTED FREE While individual whites may be against racism, they still benefit from the distribution of resources controlled by their group. Yes, an individual person of color can sit at the tables of power, but the overwhelming majority of decision-makers will be white. Yes, white people can have problems and face barriers, but systematic racism won‟t be one of them. This distinction—between individual prejudice and a system of unequal institutionalized racial power—is fundamental. One cannot understand how racism functions in the U.S. today if one ignores group power relations. ‘’This systemic and institutional control allows those of us who are white in North America to live in a social environment that protects and insulates us from race-based stress.’’ - States Dr. Robin Di Angelo in his essay about white privilege POLICE BRUTALITY POLICE BRUTALITY REFERS TO THE INTENTIONAL USE OF VERBAL ATTACKS OR EXCESSIVE FORCE DIRECTED TOWARDS A COUNTRY'S CITIZENS BY THE POLICE FORCE. THIS EXCESSIVE FORCE MAY BE PHYSICAL OR IN FORM OF PSYCHOLOGICAL INTIMIDATION. Police brutality can be associated with racism. Differences in race, religion, politics, or socioeconomic status often exist between police and the citizens. Some police officers view the population as deserving of punishment, leading to parts of the populations perceiving the police as oppressors. In addition, it's known that victims of police brutality often belong to minorities such as the POC (especially black people), the disabled, the young, and the poor. Some of the police brutalities actions are perceived in terms of racial profiling. One may often be accused of committing crimes even when there is no valid evidence available. POLICE BRUTALITY These racial profiling contains false assumptions about people of particular races or groups. Many black people and Hispanics are more likely to experience police brutalities than the whites. This is because the police assume that these black people are more likely to commit certain crimes than the white people. The media often tries to hide the issue or to blame it on the victims, using excuses like "Police has the right to use force when necessary.", or "Police officers get scared too.“ It's been confirmed that most of the victims were not a threat for society or the police officers, and that the violence didn't stop even after victims surrendered and begged the officers to stop. Across America police brutality is evident. The police officers will always get away with these brutalities because they are in the system of the law enforcement agency. Other officers who are accused of these cases are either charged with minor offences or charged with nothing at all. KU KLUX KLAN The Ku Klux Klan is a native-born American racist terrorist organization that helped overthrow Republican Reconstruction governments in the South after the Civil War and drive black people out Soon the Klan was no longer narrowly Southern; law and order, prohibition and anti-Catholicism were added to its white supremacist beliefs, and it enrolled millions of Klansmen and Klanswomen.
