We believe in Equailty, yet Africans Americans are still being discriminated.


African Americans have been discriminated for their skin color since the 1800's. All we keep doing is assuming they're all bad. Discriminating someone for their skin color isn't right. Although some are bad, but almost every race have bad people. Assuming someone is a bad person for their skin color is disgusting.To figure out if someone is a bad person is to talk to them and actually getting to know them. Maybe instead of jumping to conclusions you can ask them a reasonable question.

You may have heard about the police brutality going on and Officer Cantwell, A berwyn police officer, was interviewed and was asked "How would you feel if your partner (on the job) shot someone for no reason, specifically African Americans" and his response was "it doesn't matter what nationality, gender, sexuality he had shot, I would arrest my partner, not only for my safety but everyone else's." Police men have kill at least 102 unarmed African Americans in 2015 according to mapping police violence.org.

Most police men have not been charged with any crime they committed against an African American. We should all be very disturbed that an unarmed African American is an astounding seven times more likely to be killed by American police than an unarmed white man. And if you aren't more disturbed that even if they're unarmed they are still murdered.

In conclusion we really need to stop assuming every African American is bad and try to at least problem solve instead of going out your way to murder an innocent person. This problem is happening all around U.S, we need to change this problem for the better. We absolutely need to change this society for the better.
