This article looks at the prejudice of the legal system toward men in child custody cases. Anti-father and pro-mother bias plays a part in a judge's decision to award full or partial custody. Gender bias is prevalent in our American Justice system, even when bound by a code of judicial obligations.

Wow this article was very interesting and kind of eye-opening to me, I guess I never fully realized (until now) that this is an issue! Thank you for sharing this!

I have thought this for a long time now. As women become more a part of the work force, more men are taking on the roles as the primary caregiver for children. because of this, I believe that the old stereotype that men are gone all the time and have no idea on how to be a caregiver is completely false.

This article tackles the gender bias topic in the workplace. They made the video to show the dramatic differences in the way men and women are viewed for the same characteristics or behaviors.

It's really sad to see the difference in how men and women are treated in the work place. Women are viewed differently because of their gender and not by the job that they perform.

Reading this shows how sad the equality is between men and women. It bases it off of gender instead of performance which is not right at all, especially with the women.

A poll done by the Knight-Gallup foundation is reviewed in this article by MTSU in which the author, Ken Paulson, gives his thoughts on the polarizing effects of how American Media has changed from being simply separated by partisanship to a new era of inflamed division. Paulson cites the poll by Knight-Gallup to show that public opinion coincides with his own views in that our media is too heavily biased and is to blame for political division. The article has a strong close bringing readers to be introspective as to why the news articles in which they might place blame are continuously fired up by views and demand.

The author reviews the purpose of Residential Schools for the Deaf and how they influence the social life and wellbeing of the children who are sent there for the better. The article shows a bias leaning towards the schools although there are many hearing families who find themselves troubled by the idea of sending their Deaf children away from K-12 but the article brings forward the positive aspects of how a residential school is uniquely capable of helping deaf children develop confidence and capable social skills that would allow them to experience a proper education unlike a mainstream public school in which they would most definitely be out-casted by their lack of resources, culture, language, and role models. It shows both the pros and cons of the residential schools for the Deaf in America but with a clear bias, however this is not unreasonable. Despite the clear bias towards residential schools from the author the article offers a point of view of hearing parents finding issue with sending their child away from home for long periods of time as they would experience with a residential school.

The Justice System definitely has the potential to be corrupt, or at the very least, can be biased. What happens when the judge hearing a case has a personal bias against an important characteristic of the case?

This article is eye opening, and really speaks to the power which corruption has, or possibly the corruption which power brings. This is just a small instance in cases where abuse of power and nepotism can really dismantle government. I fear our two party system absolutely fosters this type of behavior, and certainly not to make it political in any sense: it is frightening to understand the possibility. Great article.

I definitely agree with this. There is absolutely corrupt justice. Money talks in this world and that is the sad thing.

The social bias in the healthcare in America is ridiculously bad. It costs thousands of dollars to get checked out by a doctor and thousands more for a life saving surgery. Where some people get cheaper for better?

This article is a bias outlook on feminists and feminism. The point of the article is that the author understands that being a full-time mom is not a job.

Racism in America still exists and probably always will, especially toward the Latino community. Their acceptance in the work place and in education institutions are frequently effected by evidence a stereotypical bias. This is true prejudice at its core and continues to crosses generations.

Growing up in Arizona I had no idea what racism was. My high school was predominantly Hispanic and I never saw prejudice towards them or hatred to me. It wasn't until I was an adult that I began to realize the problem with racism. Although I do believe that America is still the greatest country, any other country that you can say deals with racism better is just more white, and doesn't have to deal with it. I cannot say that there are not people here who believe, for some insane reason, that America is a suppose to be "white" and anyone of a different race is an "immigrant." I am hopeful that as each generation is born a small part of racism dies.

Throughout the modern century, American society has seen a shift from overt prejudice, to a more subtle covert method of discrimination. This scholarly evaluation examines the possible implicit biases that seems to play a large role in immigration courts and how the sentencing can be skewed as a result. At the end, possible solutions are presented for the issue, allowing the reader to fully comprehend how the writer sees the dilemma and that they deeply understand the topic at hand.

Statistics of undocumented immigrants on welfare. Food stamps, Medicaid, and subsidized housing being provided. Clinton Administration's dishonest definition of welfare.

An evaluation of the source is needed. Bias checkers show that this site is known for showing Right-Bias, sometimes changing small details in information to get a reaction out of the audience. You can view the proof on MediaBiasFactCheck.com .

A simple sentence in prison could be deadly. Multiple prisoners are denied treatment based on bias decisions in the justice systems. Hepatitis C is a serious condition and needs to be taken as such.

It is sad that prisoners do not get the proper health care that they should be entitled to. Especially considering a good majority of people in prison were and are wrongfully committed, they now go through such terrible conditions. It really is

It saddens me to see this happening in prisons. Although most prisoners are in the place they are for committing a crime, they should still not be denied treatment for something like Hepatitis. The bias decisions should be left out when it comes to a life or death situation.

This article compiles different studies showing that a culture of racism in police departments disproportionately leads to the harassment and killings of unarmed black men. It also suggests solutions that could lessen police brutality and bring accountability to cops who commit crimes of violence and murder.

This article shows a first hand account to witnessing the protests on Trumps Muslim ban.

I believe this article is a good look at what a confirmation bias is. I took a few moments to look up the author. He has authored four books, three of which are about the Clinton family. However desperate the situation may be, I don't believe this article really hit the nail on the head. I am sure I am guilty of this as well however with my own articles, at least one of them. It is really hard to perform research without searching for information that supports a claim. All of that is my opinion. HOWEVER, this is what I would assume to be a Primary Source. Albeit does not have the appropriate domain names, I do believe this would fit the bill for many an argumentative literary pieces. In that regard Kuddos my friend. Great read, and even greater discussion!

This article gives us a clear and brief definition of racial discrimination found in daily treatment towards each other. Stereotyping, racial profiling, prejudice and overt bias and some other subtle forms of racial inequality are often considered as racially distinguishing. From a small comment such as " it is because they are from.." to isolating a non-American person can have a big impact on that person's life.

This article goes into their issues on artificial intelligence. They go onto say that artificial intelligence is bias and racist to a certain degree.

An online article explaining the impact on trust in social commentary that 24 hour news agencies and social media has on society. The recent explosion of social media and online presence has skewed public relations to current events, and made it easier to disseminate false narratives as fact in order to sway opinion. Concluded by the idea of the 'echo chamber' being used by current media outlets to segregate in order to polarize communities and create barriers.

This website is about Arizona teachers protesting for more funding for their school districts. People who have participated in this protest wear red and walk the streets. Teachers refuse to go to class until they have got their point across.

I was on my mission when this protest occurred, but I remember hearing about it. I think it's important for people to be paid what they deserve.

It really is sad that it took such a huge movement of teachers risking their jobs to get the point that schools need more funding across. You would think that teachers would be paid fairly since they impact a students future the most.

These days race is normally classified as a social category and power dynamic. This includes systems to promote fairness and not bias based on race. System analysis can help students and adults generate better solutions and strategies to advance racial equity.

This article includes a lot of important information related to racism. I like how it talks about racial equity as well.

This article provides a lot of useful information on how race isn't just what they are. Its also their status and justice in life.

An article that explains the imbalance of education opportunities within races and how it can affect children into adulthood. It starts by presenting the issue then goes into what it means for those affected.

This article shows the inequalities in the education system and how it negatively effects education and children's lives. It shows that children are getting unequal opportunities based on the color of their skin. This can be used to show indifferences in education.

The article focuses on the the subject of race in the classroom and the impact it has had in education.

Negative news coverage, social media reports, and viral videos of police interaction, which has a negative impact on how law enforcement is viewed. Not every report is the cop not doing his/her job correctly. The news is not always truthful. Police are not appreciated for their dangerous job.

Respectfully, I think a website named "cops" talking about police may have a little bias supporting one side of the argument. It's really important to remember this because this concept may invalidate a paper in the future!

I agree with the article and your stance on this. Police officers definitely receive a lot more flack than they deserve for simply doing their jobs.
