The genocide in Darfur, Sudan has already caused hundreds of thousands of Darfuris to die and cause more than 2 million people to be homeless. The genocide began in early 2003 when members of two rebel groups revolted against the Sudanese government in Khartoum alleging systematic neglect of the inhabitants of Darfur. The two rebel groups are the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) and the Sudan Liberation Army (SLA). The government responded by launching an assault against these two rebel groups. Black Arabs were being discriminated against because they were black and they were being told that they weren't in the right religion.
More than three million Soviet prisoners of war were killed because of their nationality. Poles, as well as other Slavs, were targeted for slave labor, and as a result, almost two million perished. Homosexuals and others deemed "anti-social" were also persecuted and often
This plan of persecution and discrimination was carried out in multiple stages. First, various laws, were enacted in Nazi Germany before World War II broke out, in order to remove the Jews from civil society. Next, concentration camps were established. In concentration camps, inmates were forced to perform slave labor until they died of exhaustion or illness from a disease. Third, wherever Germany in Eastern Europe, specialized units called Einsatzgruppen were created to murder Jews and political opponents in mass shootings.
This movie reveals a sign of regress of our society because, most lynching incidents in America which occurred in public spaces and were usually the result of rape allegations involving black male supposedly assailants and white women who were purportedly their victims has not been seeing as a pure act of cruelty and hated from white supremacist calling for “justice”. A proof of this is that today, the noose appears in secluded areas such as school grounds and workplaces (Hyde Turner tragedy at work Conrald, Texas) as a result of racial tension in the U.S. Years after the Civil Right Movement, the battle for respect among all people regardless of the color of their skins and the end of racist organization or movement is far from over. A change has been operated but it is not enough to prevent such actions in the first democratic country of the world. In my opinion, the fact CNN host Kyra Phillips emphasize the importance that “youth people understand the horrors of the noose.” shows that American youth today are more sensitive about racial violence than previous generations of Americans. The essential reasons is because these major racial acts of violence occurred in the past so we should now be able to look at it from a clear, reasonably coherent and tolerant point of view in order to make these events stop.
Mass operations of the NKVD (The secret police) targeted foreign ethnicities such as Poles, Germans and Koreans. A total of 350 000 were arrested and 250 000 were executed.

Detroit recorded 308 criminal homicides in 2010, a 15.4% drop from the previous year’s count of 364. Non-fatal shootings were also down 10.5% from the previous year. We the people should be concerned about this each and every day because it’s getting dangerous and out of hand. Detroit is the capital of Michigan and without it we pretty much don’t have anything. In 2007 analysis said that Detroit officials noted about 65 to 70 percent of homicides in the city were confined to a narcotics catalyst.
Both are horrific practices prominent across the world and evident throughout history. Alice Walker, an African American author and activist, who grew up in the South, witnessed the effects of domestic violence and racism firsthand. Both domestic violence and racism are cyclical practices that play a prominent role in Walker’s debut novel, The Third Life of Grange Copeland. Under the domination of white men in the sharecropping system, Grange Copeland begins the pattern of domestic abuse, eventually driving his wife to commit suicide. The cycle continues with Grange’s son, Brownfield, as he brutally abuses his wife and children—murdering his wife in the end.
Genocide is defined as the massive killing of a civilization by another civilization for different reasons which can include ethnical, religious or political differences (“What Is Genocide” n.pag). In my opinion, genocide is the systematical murder of people from a civilization who are inferior to their enemy. Sudan’s black Christians are economically inferior to Arab militias which have killed hundreds of thousands of these people. Sudan’s genocide has been caused by an immense number of circumstances. Social differences have been very important and have directly caused genocide in Sudan.
The Ku Klux Klan Imagine living in a society in which friends, family and neighbors are murdered simply because of the color of their skin. What did they do wrong? They existed. This is the life of an African-American living in the southern United States throughout much of America’s history. The formation of the Ku Klux Klan was one of the major contributing factors to the long bloody struggle that was racism in America.
