I actually think that the white teenager wouldn’t be able to see why the colored boy was hurt, they would just brush it off and give an explanation like “oh the teacher didn’t mean it like that”. Secondly, I feel that because history has had such segregation, either by race, religion or by class, people feel as if they would be going against the norm and what society wants from them. History has taught us that the black people go here and the white people go there so that is what is ingrained in our minds. Also we are taught from a young age to marry our own kind and have the same colored children, for example, look at Barbie and ken dolls; they are the perfect white couple, and do you ever see a five year old white girl holding a black baby doll?. So because people are exposed to segregation at such a young age, when a intermarried
The Supreme Court made it possible for laws and acts to get passed to help the cause. Without the Supreme Courts decisions, the work put in by Presidents and Private citizens would never be set in stone. One case was Brown Vs Board of Education, In which a family wanted their kid to be able to go to a certain school, but their kid couldn’t go because she was black. The Courts ruling was that segregation was not constitutional in the Education place. This decision contradicted the previous decision in the case Plessy Vs Ferguson which ruled that separate but equal was fine.
"Explain how freedoms for African Americans were socially, politically, and economically limited from 1865 to 1900?” Socially, blacks were subjected to segregation and discrimination. Segregation wasn’t really a large problem to them, however, as they were more interested in forming a black community rather than integrating with the whites. However, I mean, it is still pretty awful to be treated like you’re not a being worthy enough to drink out of the same water fountain or attend the same school based on skin color. Blacks were subjected to many dehumanizing things socially speaking. Oh, and lets not forget the KKK (if that falls into this category; I think it does) who harassed, intimidated, and killed black people.

Outline and Assess Functionalist Explanations of the Relationship Between Education and Work (50 Marks) A Functionalist view on education is that it is a meritocratic system that gives everyone who enters into it an equal opportunity for success within and after full time education. One of the main reasons for this is because of a national curriculum that all state schools have to follow, meaning that there is a minimum standard of education and that everyone gets taught the same things. Furthermore, Functionalists see education as a way of maintaining society by socialising young people in a specific way, by creating competition, levels of success and equality of opportunity. In addition to this socialisation, education is also important for teaching such vital skills as learning about the basics of the economy and giving young people a basic knowledge of certain things that will help them within employment, such as literacy, numeracy and IT. Education is also one of the main influences on role allocation within society; allocating people to the most appropriate jobs for their talent, using examinations and their results from these.
Restricted by Their Beliefs Elias Monsalve “I attest that this paper upholds the Manhattan College Honor Code as well as the expectations of and responsibilities for academic integrity outlined in The Community Standards Handbook.” Elias Monsalve Elias Monsalve April 15, 2014 Religion 110 Section 06 Dr. Shefferman Restricted by Their Beliefs History has revealed to us that women have been treated unequally up until the early 20th century in The United States, and other countries have followed in our footsteps. Although all this good is happening, Islam tends to restrict opportunities to women of all ages. The Middle East is a cultural region full of rich history, but does not see forward progress due to restrictions placed on women for employment, education, and even lifestyle. It is not only just that women are treated equally but a moral obligation to mankind. Whether you are a devote Jew, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist or atheist, it is a human beings right to get an education, work where her heart pleases her, marry who she wants, or even be allowed to wear what clothes she desires.
It is also mandatory in United States by law to give support for those kids who in need with any kinds of assistance. Academic and psycho- social support are commonplace in America. Another difference between Kenya and America politically is with respect to the women’s freedom. In Kenya, the women do not enjoy a freedom and power. Almost everything is under control of men.
He encourages people around the world not to wait for what can America help them on, but what they can do if they cooperate with others as members of this world to protect an essential element, which is freedom, to improve the criteria of life to all people who were deprived from it. In brief, according to Kennedy, when the world is united and liberties are granted, that will “assure a more fruitful life for all mankind”(Kennedy
I don’t believe in this, because everyone is given the same chance to succeed as everyone else. The people one surrounds themselves determines how they act around others and how they carry themselves. After Brown vs. Board of Education determined that segregation in schools was unconstitutional, the schools still seemed like they were segregated because they still separated themselves accordingly. Although it is true that the schools that serve mainly minorities don’t give a better education, it is true that if they moved to a better neighborhood, they would get a better education. “If you would have scooped Alliyah up out of the neighborhood where she was born and plunked her down in a fairly typical suburb of New York, she would have received a public education worth about $12,000 a year” (Kozol 462).
The one culture they were learning about was the white culture. Ehrenreich states, “If there had been high technology in ancient China, kingdoms in black Africa or women anywhere, at any time, doing anything worth noticing, we did not know it, nor did anyone tell us.” (pg 135) This sentence is evidence that students back then were not learning about other cultures or things going on around the world. The problems that were happening back then could have been prevented if America would have accepted every race. Since “colored” people were not being treated the same they had to fight for their rights. When America did finally acknowledge the different ethnicities, it took a while for people to actually accept it.
