Discrimination Vs Discrimination

One of the the most controversial topics of discussion in our nation is the Black Lives Matter movement. This movement has sparked up immensely because of the President in office right now, Donald Trump, and many events transpiring around the nation. The country is at separation between the people who think that Black Lives Matter is a real issue and the people who think it is not.

Segregation was prevalent in the 1950s and it still is in 2017. In the 1950s, the goal of segregation was to keep the colored citizens in the United States from mixing with the white citizens. There was segregation present in everything from the separation of railroad cars to the cells in the prisons. Today, there is still segregation within the US that involves both discrimination and racism, not necessarily the separation of people.

The Civil Rights movement was a powerful event in American History. The movement roughly began in the mid 1950s and ended around 1968. During this time, several ‘social movements, or protests were held; mostly sit-ins, boycotts, and marches. The goal of the protests was to end racial segregation and, discrimination against black Americans. Many of these demonstrations were led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He is best known for his massive role in the advancement of civil rights using nonviolent civil disobedience. In Letter from a Birmingham Jail, there is a quote that explains how all ‘injustices’ , or problems, have an effect on ‘justices’,or peace everywhere and anywhere; in other words, every cause in one place has an effect on another

Segregation and civil rights movements are familiar words that reflects some of the good, bad and ugly pasts of the United States of America.

Racial discrimination occurs everyday to many different people. In America,the individuals who are usually discriminated against are the minorities like African Americans and Hispanics. Affirmative action is a policy that was created and has been claimed to be positive discrimination. The policy was created to give equal opportunity to groups of people who are usually discriminated against. Although Affirmative action has been named to be positive and support minorities, it is still unjust. There should be no positive aspects of racial discrimination. Many believe that it is only racial discrimination or racist if a caucasian person discriminates against a person of color but do not consider it racism if it happens to be the other way around. Racial Discrimination in any form is harmful which is why affirmative action policies are not correct.

Protest against injustice is deeply rooted in the African American experience. The origins of the civil rights movement date much further back than the 1954 Supreme Court ruling on Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka which said, "separate but equal" schools violated the Constitution.

The cause of Civil Rights Movement had a butterfly effect. It first started in small way but as times goes on, it turned to something big that affected the whole nation. The first effect was started by four black students from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University went to Woolworth’s department store and sat at the area that’s reserved for whites. They were told that they couldn’t get served but they refused and sat until the store closed. The students kept doing this for five months, until Woolworth agreed to serve black customers (Eric Foner, Give Me Liberty, 983-984). This led to meeting for young activist that was organized by Ella Baker in April 1960, which led the start of Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee

Throughout history there has been a major conflict with segregation and racism. Malcolm X once stated, “I am against every form of racism and segregation, every form of discrimination. I believe in human beings, and that all humans should be respected as such, regardless of their color.” (Malcolm X, 1992) This quote shows that people shouldn’t be segregated or be discriminated based on their skin complexion.
