Essay: "Racial Profiling"by Douglas G. Berry, Jr. Racial Profiling goes much deeper to me. I've seen and believe there's a lot of discomfort, and hatred in some cases with different cultured people. It's out there everywhere, among every class of people, in every country, even in our own households. There's some kind of racial profiling everywhere.
It's not only the traditional, if that's an appropriate way of putting it, black and white thing. It's the rich, and the poor. It's also judging people for what material things they have, that other's don't; for disliking someone for any reason, we might judge, or classify them in a category. It's in every facet of life, every social group there is, and in every community. To me, racial profiling is a major problem in the world. People get hurt, and even die. It's a problem that seems like it will never end. It's like asking for peace in the world today. A never-ending story, or lost cause. But, until then it's up to each of us to do our own part in stopping this problem. No matter how little we contribute, it will end if we all pull up our own weight. |
