In the video's Wise seems to think that rascism still exist today and he is right it does. Even though Brown vs. Board of education did not get rid of rascism totally it was still a huge step in the right direction and Wise says that it will take time to get rid of it completely. I think that he is right about this and it will just take time for things to settle down and for people not to be rascist. You can see the progression step by step every day.
Another interesting idea that Wise said was that Black people have less opportunities than White people. He said that some people have less job opportunities than others and even are treated differently in many ways. I agree with him in so ways that Black people are distadvantaged because of the sterio type that exists in todays society.
In class, I hope to talk about the ways that we can help more White people accept Black people and also create more opportuntiies for them as well.

It's true! There are so many talented and competent people of color and they are just over looked because of the color of their skin.
ReplyDeleteI also think it is intersting that white people have more job opportunties then black people even though they may be as qualified as a white person. I do not see how that is okay
