Black men in public space


This article is
about the experiences of a young African American that has recently graduated from
college and how the color of his skin has an effect on his social life and to
some extent his personal life. The first incident he suffers for being black
was when he was walking in a dark street and when a woman saw him she panic and
ran from him, because black people had a reputation for being robbers or thugs.
This event changes our characters life and possibly many other African Americans
in the 60’s due to racial discrimination. Also, there are some instants wen the
main character got in trouble with the police just for the fact that a black
man was in an office looking for some personal belongings. This is a huge
problem and t one that is still hunting our society fortunately not in the same
way.
This
story makes me sad and mad at the same time because we still live in a society
that is constantly surrounded by stereotypes and even discrimination towards
minorities. But I’m positive that future generations will leave racism behind
and instead build a good future for generations to come. And i really hope that in the near future people of color dont have to worry about discrimination anylonger.

We all hope to achieve a day where there's no racism in the world.
ReplyDeleteHope that day comes earlier than we think, because racism is something that needs to be exterminated from the world.
