Have you ever imagined what a perfect world is? If you ask from people, they would say
something like “A world without conflicts or arguments’ and some people might say ‘’ A world
where there is no crime and pollution” however nobody says ‘’ A world without racism “. In the
United States many Americans do not face racism. However, for many African Americans it is
something they have to go through everyday. Immigrants who comes to USA from Africa will
face difficulties in United States. People simply call them African Americans. However, African
American communities won’t accept them as African Americans. I think those people came
from Africa never thought themselves as Blacks because it’s a common thing in there.
Americans say that everybody is equal in the United States. However, they are the ones who
are racist against many other cultures. Not only Americans racist but other cultures as well. In
the United States racism is everywhere. For example: Spanish against Latinos, Ukrainian against
Russians and Muslims against Jews. In our Society many people think that racism doesn’t exist
anymore. They believe that there is no more racism in our society however if you watch news,
read newspaper or go to social media websites you could notice that racism is everywhere.

When it comes to America, in the recently news we have seen racism be a big part of our issues today. We watched what happened to Maryland in their communities, how they began riots in April and started destroying their own communities because of the recently death of a young people like Freddie Gray. The Baltimore Police Department suspended six officers with pay pending an investigation of Gray's
Racism these days is rarely spoken about, which leaves some people believing that we now live in a world full of peace. But that’s hardly the case, racism still, and I have no doubt that it always will be around, simply because there are people in this society who have adopted beliefs that black people will never be eligible to equal rights as what white people have.
In the origins of Greece, ancient Greek mythology and sources have explained incidents of the oracles of Delphi. The Delphic oracles were primarily female prophets who were told to have inhaled certain vapors from a spring in the temple of the Greek god, Apollo, which allowed the prophets to serve as a supernatural connection to the specific God. Despite the historical evidence that supports the idea of the mysterious oracle vapors, modern day archeologists and geologists rejected the idea completely. Many of the rejections are due to the lack of archeological findings of vapors at Delphi. Two men by the name of Jelle Zeilinga De Boer, a chemist, and John Hale, an archeologist, had then stepped up to study both the geological
While many think this is a perfect world where there is no racism, the reality is that everywhere in the world there is at least one person who is racist. Being a racist is difficult, especially in this day in age. Today there are all types of
I believe racism to be as apparent today if not more profound then in the past. A large portion of society believes that no man is still to this day denied any unalienable rights. I do not believe this statement to be true. We have adopted affirmative action programs and enforced strict equal opportunity employment laws to hinder discrimination. Although I believe it is still a very prevalent issue in today's society. Despite laws, investigations and results show that twenty percent of African Americans interviewing for jobs were turned down due to the color of their skin (Omi and Winant 67-68). Indeed racism may be very subtle in most cases; it is not a thing of the past but rather a very serious problem in society that evolves sociohistorically.
We are all humans, but somehow some people had made the standard and separated people by nation and skin colors. For the word racism, Racism is the "Hatred" of one person by another, based on the belief that that person is inferior because of their skin color, language, customs, place of birth, or other similar traits.Racism has existed throughout human history, often providing justification for one group's dominance over another. Most people, even if they do not approve of overt racism, nonetheless have some kind of prejudice against another group of people, and these prejudices can lead to hurt, anger, and even violence at both the personal and societal levels (“How to stop being racisms”). Nowaday in United State still have some racisms. It probably would be from the old fashion. And also we could see that even United State has been change attitude after Civil war, which just happened not long time ago.

How could an individual describe racism in America today? One could describe it as systematic. The process brought on by hundreds of years of oppression because of a superiority complex. It is the removal of basic rights and enslavement. It is the forced labor of a race to build a country that would not acknowledge them as people, only property. That was America in its most unethical form; it is the reason there are still problems today. Without out fully acknowledging the history of America’s past, the country cannot fully understand the racism that is going on today, such as the mass incarceration of the African American population and the killing of innocent black lives. Those are facets of racism in America today.
No doubt, there is still racism. Although we have come a long way, there are still racist people in the world. There are still people who have there dreams shot down by those who do not believe in them.

In the United State of America, racism is part of our cultural cloth. It's in the air that we breathe everyday. The sad part about is that i believe that some may know when their racial comments and others could get it from their family background and their so use to that they don’t even know they're being racist. Institutional racism is a strong system of privileges and powers that is based on race. Those powerful structures typically start as innocent interactions that is suppose to be helping all races but in the end will only be helping one. For instance, people tend to move to different areas than the areas you will typically see them in just for great schools, living conditions, great teachers, great paying jobs, maybe even for greater
