    Thank you for this! I will be using this for my research paper!
  •  
    This article/ website definitely hits many different ways racial profiling can happen. I always believed, why judge a person based off their skin color when underneath we are all the same.
  •  
    I found it interesting that it said racial profiling is patently illegal. it also says racial profiling is ineffective. It makes me wonder how often occurrences like this are allowed just because no one wants to deal with it.

racial discrimination comes in many form - 0 views

  •  
    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.

What the Arpaio pardon means for civil rights - High Country News - 3 views

  •  
    This article goes over the recent pardon of Arpaio and how it risks future racial profiling and violation of rights for citizens. Arpaio demonstrated harsh practices like keeping inmates outside in scorching summers, and working in chain gangs. He has already been in contempt of court for racial profiling and violating citizens' Fourth Amendment rights.
  •  
    I'm not sure this Arpaio pardon will encourage others to racial profile for immigration purposes. Arpaio was the lead candidate for this kind of behavior and I'm not sure others are rushing to follow his footsteps .

    This article explains the racial differences in earnings in America. It also discusses how the wage gap has differed over time.
  •  
    Its crazy to see how the Us has not completely advanced on moved on from the same issues that were present back in the day. Inequality is a problem that has never left the country and needs to be both discussed and solved.
  •  
    Interesting to see the gap slowly close as time goes on. One can only hope one day the gap will completely disappear and we can all have a seat at the table together.

Arpaio moves to dismiss racial profiling case - 4 views

  •  
    This article talks about how trump pardoned arpio. Arpio was being held in regards to him and his team detaining people based on their suspicion that those people were in the country illegally. It also talks about how arpio wants to run for office again
  • ...3 more comments...
  •  
    The issue in this article is definitely controversial, especially here in Arizona. I suppose the issue should be over; he was pardoned. As the article stated, nothing more can be done. People should not waste their energy over something they cannot change and simply move forward.
  •  
    This will only turn us backwards as a state,as a country. My mom was stopped on numerous occasions driving because the color of her skin,so I feel very strongly that him being pardoned won't be for the good or benefit of people just trying to live their daily lives.
  •  
    If Arpaio does follow through with running for office I can't imagine it being much different than his last period in office. Trump pardoned Arpaio for his mistakes. Arpaio might not have learned his lesson and may just repeat what he just did.
  •  
    This article can be taken many different ways. Arpio being pardoned is not something that is for the better of this state and as a country. Everyone needs to be held accountable for their actions, and when people are being let off so easily just as Arpio is, it is not fair for the rest of us.
  •  
    As the article stated, not much can be done now that Joe Arpaio has been pardoned. I do believe, however, that this dismissal ought to unify Arizona residents in the fight against racial profiling. Whether a victim of Arpaio's practices or not, he committed an unethical crime and is not only being "forgiven," but given the opportunity for a fresh start which does not follow the American justice system.

Racial injustice - 1 views

  •  
    Schools are discriminating against color people. Now allowing them to have the supplies they need. Telling them they are not smart enough to understand a concept based off the color of their skin. Ignoring the bullying that comes from not only the student but the faculty as well.
  •  
    I completely agree with this article. I feel that if children are allowed the same resources and are taught how to combat racism from a young age, future generations will be safer and more peaceful.
