Barrows vs. Shaku and Dharmapala: an argumentative analysis John Henry Barrows and Soyen Shaku represent more than just two religious luminaries having a good-hearted debate. Their deliberation at the late 19th century Parliament of Religions represents the East versus the West, modernity versus tradition and rhetoric versus logic.

African Americans are more prone to traffic stops, searches and arrests by law enforcement, are more likely to be victims of deadly force, and are more often the victims of unfair rulings when being tried in a criminal court case versus other races that have committed the same crime.
