Race And Conflicts In America

Does race play a significant role in conflicts in America? The obvious is yes, but the real question is why? Black skinned Americans and their white American counterparts have been entangled in some form of conflict in society since the inception of America. The conflict between races for black people has been documented such as the horrors of slavery, the Jim Crow era, and the Civil Rights movement. However, white skinned Americans are not exempt from unfair treatment from their black counterparts. Many pale skinned Americans are excluded from joining other minority groups even if they share a heritage with these groups. With a multitude of issues, variables, and subcategories of differences, each color can feel alienated from the other.
