Anthropology American History X “I hate anyone that is not white Protestant‚” begins Danny Vinyard‚ the brother of a former neo Nazi skinhead. American History X offers opinions from two sides through one character‚ the ex-neo Nazi Derek‚ and the post-prison-reformed Derek.

In the near future‚ I would like to see the Asian Pacific American community get more involved with business. This has typically been a mostly Caucasian field‚ but I believe there should be more Asians striving to get degrees in business administration‚ finance‚ and accounting. Many are capable of excelling in these facets of business‚ and I believe they would make a strong impact.

America‚ equality cannot ever be truly attainable. Solutions to this problem are out there‚ but putting them into effect seems to be taking a back seat to issues that are deemed more essential. When defining race‚ having broad categories such as “white” or “other‚” and then requiring others to be labeled so much more specifically‚ creates a perilous divide between citizens. Hyphenating only some races and then generally grouping others together is unfair for everyone. America has long been confused

Draft One In the poem‚ “The White Man’s Burden‚” Rudyard Kipling explicitly writes about the deterioration of society as a union. The metaphor in line two suggests that the white men have to “wait in heavy harness‚” (Kipling 5) due to the fact that these “strangers” are weighing down‚ or burdening‚ the “worth” of the whites.
