Racial Identity and Racial Treatment of Mexican Americans - 1 views

  •  
    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.

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.

Social Versus Criminal Justice by Doug Traubel and Charles E. Corry, Ph.D. - 0 views

  •  
    From time immemorial societies have sought ways to regulate and control human behavior in a fair and just manner. It would appear the issues start out fairly simple, say a law stating: You shall not kill... except ...and the "except" is why there is no consistent universal code of justice.

  •  
    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.
