This is a great article pointing out the fact that if racism is in all races. People think because we are white we don't understand racism. It doesn't take a skin color to under stand ignorance and racism is ignorance. Racism is in all races no matter the skin color or gender or even sexual preference.

voting laws requiring photo IDs are being considered discriminatory. Politician scientists from Appalachian State, Texas Tech and the University of Florida gave their input on the situation with ID regulation.

This article states that the death penalty cannot comply to the constitution. It states that 2/3 of those sentenced to death since 1976 have been in five southern states, where racial bias still exists. It also states that 17 innocent people, on death row, were released based on DNA evidence, and another 112 released based on other evidence.

This article states what complications Hispanic people face right now here in Arizona with police. The law states that a cop is allowed to arrest someone, granted they follow certain steps, if they have reasonable suspicion. Many people find that it borders racism and aren't comfortable with the new law.

It is against this historical backdrop that we encounter post-9/11 efforts to combat terrorist acts on American soil, and examine the role that race should play in an effective effort to deter future attacks. But before assessing whether our government's response to the events of 9/11 betray a pattern of racial profiling, I first want to identify what it is.

South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley signed a bill into law Thursday that will bring down the Confederate flag outside the Statehouse, a move that seemed unthinkable only a month ago in this Deep South state that was the first to secede from the Union.

Another post with the hatred symbol being removed from society. I enjoyed reading this article just as much as the last about the Confederate flag being removed.

This can go either way for people with different backgrounds. The flag can either mean independence and freedom but some take it as being different from the U.S. and it is tied to racism even,

The flag does represent a rebellion against the American government.
