    Adam Goodman Response: 10/29 In his book, The Anatomy of Racial Inequality, Glenn C. Loury avoids discussing racial discrimination, which we have often focused on in class. Instead, Loury chooses to focus on “racial stigma.” Loury claims this stigma, and the associations and stereotypes that are linked with it, appear to sustain systematic racial inequality in America. Unlike discrimination, The effects of racial stigma are more subtle and are deeply embedded in the historical narrative of the nation. As Loury notes, America is often said to be a “melting pot,” a land of immigrants where everyone’s culture contributes to the whole of society.…

    I have not seen social inequities based on race, but I have heard about it still going on. I have heard that the African Americans get more food stamps than white people. I do not know if it is true or not. I know many black people that do not want any financial help, and I know plenty of white people that receive food stamps. I think mostly people want to say this type of stuff because they are unable to budget their money correctly.…

    I think that institutional racism still exists today. Institutional racism is a form of racism and it refers to institutions giving negative treatments to a group based on their race. Some of these institutions are governmental organizations, schools, banks, and courts. Institutional racism leads to inequality because some groups are seen as inferior to other groups. For example, we see institutional racism in courts when judges impose sentences for crimes.…

Segregation in schools effects many different interest groups including schools, teachers, and parents but the most important are the people who are actively learning in these environments. Students. As a current student, the idea of feeling segregated due to my social class and living environment would be very hurtful and should be unacceptable in today’s society. The “domino effect” can be used to describe today’s segregation.…

    Prejudice is unfortunately a common theme in today’s society, especially in America. Certain races and ethnicities are immensely affected by the inequity. America is supposed to be the land of the free where everyone is equal and there are no judgments based on your past or where you live or even who your relatives are. However, that is far beyond the truth. In reality, your wealth and your opportunities depend on the color of your skin and even your name. America is not the best, it is a work in progress with the potential to be the best.…

    This paper covers white privilege as well as the systematic racism leading to the death of two people. It also connects an online article by Warren J. Blumenfeld to the book written by Rebecca Skloot. Both have a central theme of white privilege and racism, but Blumenfeld appears to believe that racism and white privilege feed off of each other while Skloot simply reports examples of past instances of racism that still have an impact today.…

    Institutional racism is societal patterns that influence discrimination against a particular race or ethnicity (Hart 2015: 14.) An example of institutional racism can be seen in the south side of Chicago, specifically with the schools located there. As a result of the poverty invested communities all around the area, children attending schools are often times forgotten about. Most of the schools are filled with minority groups, which causes schools to receive poor funding from Chicago Public Schools (CPS). On top of that, the south side is predominately a African-America community which only adds to the discrimination.…

    Institutional Racism Within the Criminal Justice System in the U.S Institutional racism is quite apparent in the U.S criminal justice system as not only the police force seem to be "institutionally" racist, but the judges too in certain states.

    Still to this day, slavery and the following inequality in race have brought down the African race in America. Examples like the Freedom Train in the 1940s that made concessions to white Southerners, and even as far as today in Hurricane Katrina where government support took incredibly long to respond and aid the people of mostly poor African communities that were flooded. Another example is of the differences in home ownership. “Equity in Owner Occupied Housing is most of the wealth for most Americans” (Course Slides p. 26), and this created a discrepancy in race due to the government’s unwillingness enforcing laws to prohibit housing discrimination in the 1950s and other times. Through the Freedom Train that only seemed to represent the…
