post 10

Mine Research 

          In page 15 of the book The New Jim Crow, Michelle Alexander discusses the issue about African American community.  Doubting about the claims made a warranted. The Important differences things among the prison, Jim Crow, and bondage. These are the main radicalized system of control adopted in the United States. The author discusses the issue about how the system was based on race. It impossible to thought a lot committed to cancel racial chain of command, and talk as the state-sponsored racial system is not exists any more.  If we tell ourselves that the problem of mass incarceration is big or small for us, we should instead direct our energies to battles that maybe won. “A human rights nightmare is occurring on our watch”. (Pg.15)

            While I was summarizing page 15 of the book The New Jim Crow, I expand on the ideas with some additional resources.  I found Medical Apartheid by Harriet, Washington. According to the book, many blacks are used in the treatments and help to establish them, but then are unable to use them themselves due to expense and other reasons. Another aspect the media should have covered was the correlation between the people experimented on, not as each individual story.

            Furthermore I found the book African American Literature Beyond Race edited by Gene Andrew Jarrett. This book also discusses the issue about race.

            In addition I found in the website global issue. It discusses that racism is exists and there are many racial groups.  People believe that racism is exists and everywhere.

            While I was searching for racial issue in the Internet Martin Luther king’s speech grab my attention. I found a speech that called “I have a dream”. Martin Luther wished to live in a world where no one will be treated by race, or skin color.

In conclusion, African American has been dealing with racism long time ago and still dealing with it. I hope that one day people will stop treating each other by race or skin color.
