Compare And Contrast Two Articles White Supremacists

Protests help people make a change in our world by taking a stand on current issues. In All American Boys written by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely it talks about a protest and it represents the issue of police brutality. In the last chapter “Friday” Rashad is; finally, home from the hospital and Quinn has finally taken a stand. They are both marching at the protest for Rashad. Rashad and Quinn both made it to the protest, and Rashad, his friends, Spoony, Berry, and Rashad’s mother were the leaders of the protest. In All American Boys the book supports the statement protests are an effective way to bring change.

Unfair laboring and immigration in the United States has affected Latinas/os lives for decades. In the United States millions of Latina/o citizens, emigrants, and immigrants have dealt with bias, racially segregated, and limited positions in regards to labor. They have been limited to blue collar jobs with low wages, no benefits, and hardly any raises. In the article, “Heteropatriarchy and the Three Pillars of White Supremacy”, Andrea Smith argues, “This framework does not assume that racism and white supremacy is enacted in a singular fashion; rather, white supremacy is constituted by separate and distinct, but still interrelated, logics.” (Smith 67). I believe that Andrea Smith’s two of the Three Pillars of White Supremacy: Genocide/Colonialism and Orientalism/War fits with Latina/o labor and immigration. I also believe that her first pillar of Slavery/Capitalism could be displayed slightly differently to be more suitable with Latina/o labor and immigration. In this paper I will argue how the two out of the three pillars fit with Latina/o labor and immigration. I will also argue and propose a new pillar to represent Latinas/os labor and immigration. I will also argue how sexuality, power, and gender play a role in these three pillars.

In the year 1898 in the town of Wilmington, North Carolina a riot occurred between the African American inhabitants and the white minority of the city. Several historians accuse the origin of the riot on racism and white supremacy. Although these two beliefs have been around for countless years, and African Americans received the right to vote almost thirty years’ prior, no demonstration nor aggressive threats, to the point in which was seen in 1898, had occurred in Wilmington until that year. The Wilmington Race Riot was the reaction of the “sociopolitical conditions” that were being applied by the Democratic Party to win the election through a sequence of diabolical campaign tactics just like creating partial accusations about the “negroes” of the town thus, creating unconstitutional practices, and threatening their existence.

In our daily basis we are bombarded with millions of images, but we rarely stop to think about what those images mean and what they are persuading us to do. Images can be found in many forms, newspapers, magazines, internet, radio, television, smart phones, social media and billboards, amongst other forms. Images have power, which is why individuals need to understand the messages being sent to them.

Cantenucio argues that, “It’s just sad that people are afraid to say it because they’re terrified of being called racists, which they most certainly will by white liberals and blacks defending the status quo.” He states this because he believes that most of the white Americans, who see blacks as criminals, feel concerned to use words like riot and thugs with black people since they do not want to be called racists. Cantenucio believes that he as white, is superior to black people, and he provides examples in his article to support his ideology, and convince his audience that he is right, which automatically helps him to establish his ethos. He believes that black people are criminals, and it is right for white people to describe their protests, like the ones in Baltimore and Ferguson as riots because it is part of their culture. The way he identifies himself as superior, and provides historical evidences, arouses from his audience the idea the he has enough basis to support his claims, which makes his ethos stronger. He provides historical evidences and statistics in the article in order persuade his audience to emerge and let the word know that they believe that black protests are riots. Cantenucio knows that the

In Mallory’s essay, the articles that she found did a great job of explaining the Missouri protests in a positive manner. The article references were good examples of how a discussion about race can be done in a mutual, non-attacking manner. Because race is a sensitive topic in this society, it is also important for the media to give people the correct information about what is happening in today’s society, while being respectful and understanding of all sides of an argument. Although Mallory was able to find articles that showed how journalists were mutual, I was not able to find such articles. The ones that I found talked about what was happening in Missouri was either a burden, unnecessary, or the focus was not even on the protests, but rather the money and the politics of the whole situation. However, I do definitely do agree that Doing Race was a great article that had key points that were relevant to the discussion about the Missouri Protests.

In the article “Protesters flood streets, and Trump Offers a Measure of Praise” the authors Katharine Seelye, Alan Blinder, and Jess Bidgood use the word violence in a paragraph. The word violence is a good word to describe the article and what occurred in the Virginia protest. According to the article the author wrote that someone actually drove a car straight into a crowd of people. From what i see in this article it looks like someone from New York Times actually went to the protest and took pictures in order to write this story. As i read the article i felt as if this article was for anyone to read. Just to inform people on what’s going on nowadays. This article illuminates violence because the article talks about violence that occurred

In the very first paragraph of this piece of media, the author uses the politically incorrect - and might I also point out racist - terms of “white” when referring to the man responsible for the Charleston, South Carolina shooting, and “black” when referring to the victims of the shooting. He then goes on to say that “many” are calling for the removal of the flag. If you click on the link over the word many in his essay, it say only 1,000 people were

In the article, fear was portrayed through the protests in Charlottesville. White supremacists violently attack those who opposed their views. Facts were obtained in the news conference held on Tuesday by president Donald Trump. The groups that this article is intended for, are those who were protesting (both sides) and those who have kept themselves informed on the topic for the past weeks. The fear in this article is similar to the fear displayed in my article, in the way that people dealing with the situation face to face are being exposed to a deal of injustice. However, this article is solely based on the protesters of Charlottesville, whereas the other concentrates on those being detained, facing deportation. The topic of fear was illuminated through stating information that was said from presidents in the past, yet can be seen relevant in today’s society because of the unjust actions that occur.

In this article, Abby L. Ferber shares her thoughts and experiences while reading the works of white-supremacists as a Jewish person. Growing up, Ferber never noticed her Jewishness because she grew up in a Jewish community and attended a majority Jewish college. She wasn’t made aware of her Jewishness until she attended graduate school in the Pacific Northwest and another student referred to her as “the Jewish one.”

Author Steve Chapman wrote that nowadays racists remember the old days of white supremacy. Trump incited that motive from many racists and has promised them power therefore having to do as they say.Chapman has been a member of the Tribune editorial board since 1981 and has discussed important topics such as the one here. This article reminds me to when cops were given more power when it came to situations with African Americans and it wasn’t fair. The white supremacists are at war with those that oppose them as they think it’s wrong, Trump aids these and they support him back for it. The end of this shall come one day but only time will tell what occurs.

Protesting is a way of publicly stating your opinion. The two stories, A Letter Home and Waiting for Dan, show two examples of protesting different events. Although they are protesting different, events, there are similarities between the two. Many connections can be drawn between them, but they’re not exactly the same. They’re different in some ways, too.

Unfortunately, society is not receiving all of the information, which has resulted in riots and the Black Lives Matter campaign. These riots are aggressive, resulting in the destruction of communities and an overall disregard for societal safety. By analyzing media coverage, this paper will reveal how the

Compare to racism of Jim Crow South in the 1930s, the racism of today is different, but also similar in some ways. The way they are similar is the cases by racism of both time periods. Even as the time passing by, violence caused by racism still keeps happening. The difference they have is that the Jim Crow Laws caused segregation between colored people and white people in the south, but there’s no separation in nowadays anymore. Also, the place of colored people is quite different in nowadays.

The media has changed the mindset of many individuals in society. If a peaceful protest is happening, then the citizens are portrayed to be angry and rioters in the media. In today’s society, people gain their knowledge from either reading off social media networking sites and newspaper outlets online. The miscommunication and biased perspectives are formed because of sources that may have an enticing headline such as saying, “Black Lives Matter is the newest hate group.” For someone who might not understand this organization would believe the negative stigma behind it. This organization stands against violence and systemic racism toward African-Americans involving the issues of police brutality, profiling, and injustices. Black Lives Matter holds peaceful protests and meetings to find solutions to help end racial inequality for African-Americans. The headline should state that “Black Lives Matter stands up for unity,” which is respectable toward the organization. However, the media tries not to promote positivity because they want to appeal more individuals with newsworthy articles.
