    This article is about Wells Fargo making black houses in neighborhood after neighborhood foreclose, to where they make the people have not home. They target one poor black house at a time and send out the bills that they can not pay.

    Wells Fargo needs to send bills to every type of person at a time.

    Can you go deeper into the topic, this way you can understand the topic better.

    The black homeowners have definitely gotten the short end of the stick with how they are being treated by Wells Fargo.
  • Jimmy T. on 20 Feb 14
     
    I think that this in completely based on few to no facts. More black homeowners going into foreclosure doesn't mean there is racism involved. There are factors this doesn't account for, like getting fired. However, this doesn't mean that it isn't happening.
  • Jerry P on 20 Feb 14
     
    I agree that it sounds like Wells Fargo is definitely just trying to make blacks and Latinos lose their homes. That's just unfair.
  • Henry B on 20 Feb 14
     
    What was the major problem? You were not clear about that. Also, why do they need to send bills to everyone at a time. I don't think they should send blacks or anyone bills for the foreclosure reason.
  • SeanMarc T on 21 Feb 14
     
    The article is a great example of racial discrimination and this could lead us to more companies that discriminate African-American citizens.
  • William S on 21 Feb 14
     
    This is yes racism but also greed. They specificly target these people because they know that they can't pay these bill so they go straight for them. And they are making tons of money off of this. Just like at their stock.

    This needs to be more clear, you need more facts. This could be a good article for our group though.
  • Seth R on 21 Feb 14
     
    This is a good article to show how major companies can be racist. Although I feel as though this could have happened to a white person or another race.

  • Sam B on 24 Feb 14
     
    This may not be racial discrimination. Black neighborhoods are common in Memphis and those neighborhoods are most likely the poorer ones. The families may be in dept, thus their interest goes up.
  • Jim K on 25 Feb 14
     
    I agree with Sam. Maybe it was just a coincidence that all the people being forclosed on just happened to be black that one time.
  • Jimmy T. on 25 Feb 14
     
    I don't think this article looks at every perspective. It doesn't look at the perspective of Wells Fargo. The foreclosures could have something to do with their jobs. Maybe their pay got cut, or they got fired. I'm not saying that it isn't happening, but I feel that it jumps to conclusions.

Three more thugs arrested for racially motivated mob attacks in Warner Robbins, GA - 2 views

  • If the races had been reversed, this would be a major national news story. There is absolutely no doubt that national media would be in a frenzy right now. About thirty black teenagers, in Warner Robins, Georgia, celebrated a snow day by rioting and committing racially motivated hate crime mob attack. Five white adults were brutally attacked by the mob. One of the victims was a woman who had an infant baby with her. The thugs posted the this photo (right) on the internet to gloat about the attacks. The thugs screamed racial slurs during the assaults. The total number of arrests has increased to five. Since the perps are all juveniles, there will be very little repercussions for their actions. From Macon Telegraph… Three more teens were arrested Friday for their alleged involvement in an attack at Warner Robins High School last week when the school was closed for snow. D’Angelo Montell Roquemore, 17, of Warner Robins, has been charged with aggravated assault in the Jan. 29 brawl, according to a police news release. In addition, a 15-year-old boy from Warner Robins and a 14-year-old boy from Warner Robins were each charged with aggravated assault, the release states. Police did not release the boys’ names because they are juveniles. Two teens already were arrested in the incident, bringing the total number of arrests to five.

      It's a good topic but this does not apply to racism in Memphis.
  • Jim K on 10 Feb 14
     
    3 black thugs called a white awful racial slurs, and brutally beat him.
  • Ben S on 12 Feb 14
     
    In the article I feel like it is one sided. We didn't here from the black point of view, what if the 5 white people threatened them? I feel like you need to add to the tags. For example, assault. Also, you highlighted almost all of it and Mr. Cummings said not to. Also, Georgia isn't in our community. We need to find the other side of the story, like what caused the black kids to kill them. What were the white people doing to provoke the blacks to kill them?
  • Graham W on 19 Feb 14
     
    I agree with Sam it really doesn't apply to Memphis because every night on Action News 5 you always see that someone either kidnapped someone or murdered someone. It is also black people and white people. So it wouldn't really be a big deal if a white guy murdered someone randomly. This happens every day in Memphis either a murder, abuse, or kidnapping, its not a big deal white or black.

  • Sam B on 20 Feb 14
     
    This is a very though case. Until we see some more facts, it cannot be clearly determined if this was an act of racial discrimination.
  • Robert D on 20 Feb 14
     
    This is am one growing problem with discrimination of blacks. This is key because people still blame African Americans, weather this was true or the teacher did it. There is an unfair trails with blacks.
  • Jack F on 20 Feb 14
     
    Yes, I mean he could have been lying but there is definitely a lot of racial discrimination that the lady had only blamed the 63 year old black custodian worker.
  • Jimmy T. on 20 Feb 14
     
    I think that this case definitely has some racial discrimination involved. However, I don't think if you looked at the security tapes you could pin the custodian. He has to go into every room to clean it.
  • Jerry P on 20 Feb 14
     
    This is definitely racial discrimination. A white teacher claims to "lose" her phone so she blames a black worker. Also, the only people questioned were black. There is definitely racial discrimination at that school.

    This is a good example of racial sterotypes. I thought this problem was only with police, but I guess it has spead to every one. Are there any other records of this like this happening?
  • SeanMarc T on 21 Feb 14
     
    This can show how people are quick to judge someone just by their color. This also can lead us to employees being wrongly accused of something they didn't do just because of their skin color.
  • Ben S on 21 Feb 14
     
    This article talkes about the racial discrimination in our community. Although, it didn't have enough information/evidence. Because of this we need further evidence but I think this will help us in our process of racial discrimination in our community.
  • Seth R on 21 Feb 14
     
    I agree with Sam. There really isn't enough facts or proof to really call it racial discrimination. I'm sure the teacher though that he stole it because he has access to any room when he wants to go in.

    This article is great, because it gives us a clear description of what is going on in our community that is a violation of what we are trying to resolve.
  • Jim K on 19 Feb 14
     
    I do agree with you Robert. Because of certain events where black people have been proven guilty, it seems like people always seem to blame the black people for everything. Two words for you: Racial Profiling.
  • Henry B on 19 Feb 14
     
    You should clarify what DOJ means. I see this article going far as long as some more detail is added. Maybe some more background. Did you mean to add some more detail? I suggest to make it a little more clear and then you will be fine.
  • Seth R on 19 Feb 14
     
    This is a somewhat bias article. It leans more toward the African-American side. One lady claimed that the race doesn't matter. Every situation is different, so there really isn't a real way to write down something and say it's true. I like how this is up-to-date and in our community. I suggest that you find a different article that has a two-sided opinion, or another article that back up the other side of this complication.
  • Graham W on 19 Feb 14
     
    This article gives great detail about what the real issue was, but it kind of got off track a little bit about what it is supposed to be like. Other than that this article explains a great deal of racial discrimination in Shelby County jail and prison systems.

    This article gives very in-depth detail into how whites are treated better than blacks, but why does it use a lot of information from a couple years ago like 2009. Overall, it is a good article that has plenty of meaning to it.

    I value that you choose this article because it is a great example of racism in Memphis, and I think that we can elaborate on this in our class discussion and it will cause more questions and make us think. Maybe you could clarify what the DOJ means.

    Since a lot of the judicial system is African-American why don't they help the kids? This is important because it shows that racism in the judicial system is still unfair towards African-American kids.I don't get why the African-American judges socially profile people.

    I thought this was interesting because it shows the racism in Memphis. This problem can get bigger and bigger if it is allowed. This crime was done because Martin Luther King was black. This is a big part in racial discrimination.
  • Sam B on 12 Feb 14
     
    "and beat him and arrested him and tortured him" is a run-on sentence. The crime was not done just because he was black. The attack was done because he was supporting blacks. Also you need to list this under history.

    This may be a little one-sided. The passage talks about the outrage and distress after King's death, but not the feelings of racist people in the country.
  • Jimmy T. on 19 Feb 14
     
    I do not think this is biased. However, I would question whether or not it is relevant to what we are studying. Your question was, "Where/how do we address the problem and change things?". The upcoming days of Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination aren't relevant to that question.

The statue of Meredith, unveiled in October 2006, depicts him entering the campus.

    I dont see how it is wrong for an Mexican kid to sing and american anthem.

    I like how you are bringing up something new on Mexicans instead of just Asians. I am confused if this is all to the story. There are lots of people that may not be American that do these kinds of things. What is the big deal about it? Clarify that.

    I don't know why this is such a big deal. A Mexican boy sang the national anthem, so what? This article proves that racism isn't limited to African-Americans.

    This points out how stereotypes can sometimes even be hypocrites. I am glad he refused to be discouraged by these people remembering the critic doesn't count.

    I don't really think that this in our community but that is one opinion and it is sort of one sided.

    I think that this article is good because it shows how people are racist to others and not just black people.

    This is a problem, but it seems that that this was solved and the people who did it are now coming to there sences. I think this was a one time deal.

    I don't see why people are complaining about a Mexican boy singing the national anthem we African-Americans sing it as well and people don't complain. That's discriminating only to Mexicans.

    This is a great topic about racial discrimination, but it needs to be in our area .

    This shows that stereotypes aren't always what you think they are.

    This is a good article that shows us all the stereotypes there are. The boy was an American citizen so he should be able to sing the national anthem like other American citizens.

    I realize that this isn't up-to-date, but I personally knew Asians who committed suicide because of racism issues. We need to focus on different races like Asians, Latinos, and Arabs. This article is about Asians and how their suicide rates our high because of a racism problem.

    As we see that racism isn't just to black people.
