Argumentative Essay On Black People

For decades black Americans have been treated as animals, looked at as if they are monsters, and killed like bugs. Actions like Police brutality and racism is what caused Black Lives Matter. The creation of the Black Lives Matter was a response by the black community to give a voice to black Americans affected by the increase of wrongful deaths due to the law enforcements and vigilantes across the country. This has been going on for so long that it seems like we are stuck in the past. For years, even decades black Americans have had to live the struggle of being equal. Even when things are going good and we think we finally have the same rights, something happened to change that. It is time to shed a light on the real purpose of Black Lives Matter and why they are important to today's society.

We must always question the real intention of the black studies academic because it same to have some negative aspects as well. For years’ students, fought for the programs that introduce their history and culture to the predominantly white academic. Those departments were to introduce the black students to a history that not only talk about slavery, but introduce them to a history that talks about inspirational leaders and founder who fought to educate themselves. But we can place doubts within the program because we have to question whether if they didn’t demand or fought for the rights of education, would there be a Black Studies department?

A Black president should be judged with lower expectations than any other president. America honestly and truly will never have a Black president because the United States of America is predominately White. If the president is representing the United States of America the interest and needs of White people will always be addressed and catered to. Black Americans have overwhelmingly given their support to President Barack Obama in both of his presidential election. But Black Americans have been falling further behind while President Obama has been in office. According to statistics the “The national unemployment rate has dropped to 7 percent, but the jobless rate for blacks has hardly moved since Obama took office, declining from 12.7 percent

Yes all lives matter, however, a pattern of black men and women have been murdered by police brutality; therefore, we need to concentrate on preserving Black at this moment. At this very moment, in the United States, there have been destructive riots and peaceful protest from all races but mostly African Americans because we continue to witness our black men and women die from police brutality without justice being served. It is significant that whoever wins the presidential Election will take steps in assuring that all people especially black people are protected by the police and not murdered by them. It is important that this president take steps in assuring that the justice system will began to be just in cases such as the Treyvon Martin, Eric Garner and Sarah Bland. It is important the president ensures that officers are properly trained when it comes to dealing with those who are unarmed for the simple fact that there are other methods to arresting a person that is unarmed without killing them. It is prominent that the President search for other solutions that will decrease the amount of police brutality that is inflicted on African Americans on a day to day basis. Because quite frankly, we are disgusted and angry, and tired of seeing youth die for ridiculous reasons.

In Social Work, the importance of human relationships and the dignity and worth of a person are two of the six core values. Black Lives Matter fits in both of these values. Black Lives Matter and the displays put up by the libraries are acts that show that the black race is one of importance. That they have value, despite what some of the world may say. That they are not just grouped into a group with ALL, but are their own unique race. They have had different experiences and still do. Also, the fact that they are WORTHY to have their own rights. That they are seen as special.

I personally, don't like both. Trump is a businessman, and I know...how business men can or corruptly operate. Whereas, with Hillary, I'm sorry, I too had a compartmentalized security clearance once. I was briefed going in, and I was briefed going out. Mind you, her issue was as server. Whereas, with presidency, I can only imagine "what she'll compromise," with national security. And lastly, she's anti-Semitic - as she has no respect for the JC #JewishCommunity and or the BC #BlackCommunity.

In the past year there have been 300+ fatal shootings between police and African Americans some of the most famous cases are Michael Brown of Ferguson Mo, Eric Garner of New York, Tamir Rice of Cleveland, Eric Harris of Oklahoma, and Freddie Grey of Baltimore all of these men were shot and killed by police, only 2 out of the 5 cases have the police

“There is nothing wrong with a little casual racism.” One of my friends recently commented this phrase to me, in a joking manner, but it struck me. Is just a little casual racism fine? I am one to err on the side of, “All things in moderation” but is it truly not a problem? In our society, today we see racism in our soup. In many ways, I feel as if the word communist has been switched with the word racist. No longer do we call each other a communist if they are stingy or different, we just stoop to the words racist or xenophobe. In the essay, written by Roxanne Gay, called, Surviving Django, Gay makes claims that she was offended by the racially insensitive, supercharged, ego driven film, created by Quentin Tarantino. She proceeds to

First off would like to stated what black lives matter means doesn’t mean that a black person is seen as better than anyone else but that we as a group are focusing on the issues that protein to black people. The fact that we have to explain ourselves to you means there a problem. Why should I have to beg for my life . to beg that my life matters. I am not 3/5s of a person. i traded my skin color for my freedom the moment I came into the world we are tired now were getting restless. Its 2016 but we still have to march against our own government. The only thing that has changed over the years is technology. Not the people as black people we are enslaved just the setting is different they are keeping it low so the younger generations can say

We live in a society where white people have the upper hand in almost every circumstance. It is hard for most if not all white people to understand and comprehend this because “privilege is hard to see for those who were born with access to power and resources” (Kendall 1). White people aren’t judged by the color of their skin or certain facial features they possess. Because of their looks, people of color, specifically black people get shot in the back for walking down the street or just simply ‘fitting a description.’ Arab, middle eastern, and dark skinned south Asian people get accused of being terrorists. White people get to parade around the streets in their pickup trucks blasting Tim McGraw and their white hillbilly country music waving around multiple confederate flags, armed with loaded weapons, and wearing white hooded masks that look like a dunce cap covering their entire face which fits, because white people are a huge disappointment. And some white people are still

Some folks say and support “Black Lives” and others, “All Lives”. As time go on, things take a turn ‘for the worse’. The ‘turn for the worse’ is due to the mindset of many people and the mass media. With time should come justice, peace and common ground on what is happening, but what if no one is supportive or have no knowledge of what is to come? The saying of “All Lives Matter” is deleterious and ruinous to the “Black Lives Matter” movement and support and to the black community by deteriorating their beliefs, livelihood, and mentality.

I think all lives matter. I served in the military for over 12 years, which is the most diverse company you could think of. I worked with Asians, Hispanic people and African Americans and all of them at one point of another I either called them my brother, sister or even family. Not too long ago my brother in arms, who I served with for 4 years, recently was honorably discharge from the military. He moved back home to Atlanta, GA; and with all this killings and murders of black people, he joined the Black Lives Matter protests. It is very disturbing and painful for me to see, that he has to go through such event just to defend his rights and race, and fight for his freedom. On daily basis innocent people die whether they are black, Hispanic or white, All Lives Matter, but I also understand the issue that African American people have to deal with every day.

Blacks have been killed by white people, white cops for instance, for no reason. There have been times, like recently, where the white police officer shot a black man because he/she thought the black man was reaching for a gun. I feel that police officers should be trained differently so that they don’t just automatically go straight to their

All Lives Matter does not only care about one race. Many people didn’t realize that Black lives matter is creating this boundary between blacks and other races. The people of the movement might not believe that they are causing it to happen but that is what is happening. The people of the movement state they only care about the black lives that were lost to police and injustice, but most of the black killed in America are what people consider “black on black crime”. While All Lives Matter try’s to fight all injustice. The first example is Richard Sherman, Charles Barkley and Karl Malone who have come out and stated they support All lives Matters and have donated or helped with pro-bono cases

We always heard from the news that blacks live matter or Latino lives mater, all lives matter, As I could remember racism go way back when whites people called blacks people "Negros " or when black people couldn't use the same bathroom, Eat at the same restaurant as white, or even use the same waters fountain white peoples use at the park, Although all of it ended in the 1800s but yet racism still exist.
