There was an influx of Jewish people into Germany, therefore the anti-emetic actions grew larger, despite it already being apparent that the Kaiser was anti-Semitic himself, at the end of the19th century there was a wave of anti Semitic publications, the Kaiser is known to have read these books etc.., this causes great tensions, as clearly the population agrees with their Kaiser’s opinion causing anti-Semitism to rise. Another source of tension was the anti-Semitism being clear through the idea that no Jews were able to do more traditional career areas, such as government, the army and judiciary’, this meant the they had no choice but to become bankers and lawyers act, all high earning jobs, this caused some tension within the country as they were the higher earning majority,
The Arian Brotherhood believes whites should be above all of races and or ethnicities. The Arian Brotherhood is still posing threats against other various races and is a great example of racial discrimination still existing in America Today. Another form of discrimination provided by the Caucasian race is racial profiling, racial profiling is a term used to describe when police or other various law enforcement officials single out a person or group of people as “potential suspects” based on their race or ethnicity. Racial profiling continues to be a prevalent form of discrimination in the United States today. Said by Aclu, “Since September 11, 2001, new forms of racial profiling have affected a growing number of people of color in the U.S., including members of Muslim, Arab, and South Asian communities.” For example, if an African American man standing on a corner waiting for a bus he is more likely stopped and questioned why he is standing there and where he is going.
THE CONTROVERSY OF MALCOLM X Ever since he first appeared as a spokesperson for the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X has raised many controversies. His revolutionary speeches influenced many disadvantaged black people. However, he was also severely criticized for his demands for total separation between blacks and whites in America. In his speeches, he often referred to the whites as the "devils". In his view, the white race in general was guilty for the suppression and sufferings of the black race.
Discrimination The existence of discrimination has and always will be a prevalent topic in our society. The protagonists in the stories “The Handicapped” by Randolph Bourne, “The Ethics of Living Jim Crow” by Richard Wright and “How It Feels to Be Colored Me” by Zora Neale Hurston are all victims of some form of discrimination. There are many reasons that an individual might experience bias. Discrimination can be based on one’s race, religious affiliation, appearance or sexual orientation. In the essays “Ethics of Living Jim Crow” and “How It Feels to Be Colored Me” both of the main characters are discriminated against because of their race.
Mass immigration was widely feared by many Americans due to a number of reasons. Firstly, there was a great amount of friction between those immigrating post 1900 and those who had immigrated pre 1900 due in many cases to a clash in religious beliefs, as those who had immigrated from Northern Europe before where mainly Protestant, whereas those after were mainly Catholics and Jews. This caused many of the Protestants who had already settled to blame the incoming Catholics for many things, and tensions were worsened by the construction of organizations such as the American Protestant Association, who’s sole purpose was to combat Catholicism. Furthermore, many of those who immigrated were of diversely different nationalities than the White Anglo Saxon Protestants (WASPs) who were already settled in America and had most of the political power. This predominantly Protestant power base caused disputes with the Catholics who immigrated to America, as the Catholics felt disenfranchised and apathetic due to the politicians in power not being able to relate to their culture.

I do not think that Ali was fully accepted by her Christian colleagues because they regarded her as an outsider. In addition, they questioned many aspects of her life including her name, her marital status, and her devotion to Judaism. It also says on page 11 that the clergy members had been anxious about having her present and were slightly condescending towards her. In addition, the pastor refers to himself as a “Christian Zionist” which to me does not seem very accepting, but acting as if it was considered a nice or charitable thing to do to allow Ali into the clergy. I do not think Ali did the right thing in rejecting the caller’s request to officiate at his father’s funeral because I believe that it is the duty of the rabbi to serve all Jews, especially in times of need such as when their is a death in the family.
In Israel, Ultra- Orthodox Sephardic Jews have fought against DST. They don’t like it because they recite Slikhot Penitential prayers in the early morning hours during the Jewish month of Elul, which is around August and September. If there wasn’t daylight saving time then they could recite these prayers in the light, but because of daylight saving time it’s dark in the mornings of the summer months. (National Institute) Most people who don’t like DST just see it as a hassle and a nuisance in their lives instead of a practical time
There are several reasons why the Jews were as hated as they were, are, and will continue to be. The Jews refused to assimilate regardless of which culture, religion, or nation tried to entice or threaten to kill them. It is a pattern in history that regardless of the situation there always seems to be hate for the Jews. In the early years of Christianity the Christians saw The Jewish nation as a threat to their religion. The Czars were afraid of losing power so they created laws to persecute the Jews as well.
Racism in a predominantly white city Racism, which is basically the poor treatment of other people because of their race, is a vice that has always existed in society since time immemorial. Considering what Law states, racism exists in various forms and levels. It may exist based on nationality, skin color, religious background and even as a result of personal beliefs. On the hand, contemporary racism exists with the belief that whites are superior to other races and color, and it is therefore becoming increasingly difficult to identify since it depends on the perception of the one being victimized and the given situation or interaction that might have led to it. It is important to note that although countries like Canada takes pride in knowing
