When it comes to receiving a higher education, some still look down on community colleges, believing they are the lowest of the low. They do not see that community colleges can offer almost everything that a four-year university can offer in the way of education, as well as experience. Community colleges are also a cheaper alternative to four-year schools, given today’s economy. However, some areas that community colleges are lacking have become surprisingly crucial for students’ college experience. Many do not believe cafeterias are necessary on community college campuses; this is a problem. Cafeterias provide a central meeting place that allows students to ...

Health DisparitiesIntroduction

When there is a difference between groups of people, we refer it as health disparities. The differences between these groups always affect the frequency of diseases in attacking the group, how frequently death hits the group and the number of people getting sick (Porter, 2004). The populations that are victims of disparities comprises of ethnic and racial minorities, the rural areas cohabitants, children, elderly and women, with people with disabilities. Some countries describe health disparities as inequality within the healthcare. This refers to the gaps experienced in the healthcare and quality health across ethnic, racial, socioeconomic and sexual orientation groups ( ...

Racism occurs when people use races to categorize themselves into different racial groups. These different groups form different races. When people are grouped into different races, some groups feel superior to others while others feel inferior and thus feel insecure. Racial discrimination manifests itself when some groups of people feel superior than other races which in turn lead to unequal distribution of economic resources as a more superior race tend to discriminate others in terms of resource distribution.
Stereotypes are unproved ideas of some categorize of people. These are based on racial differences, tribal lines, their sexes and the ...

CHAPTER I

I. INTRODUCTION A. Conflict Theory and Racial Profiling in Drug Related Cases
The problem of racially biased arrest is getting more serious. According to the New York Times Editorial Board (2013), updated federal data show that this problem “is far more extensive that was previously known — and is getting worse.” On a national average, the Blacks are nearly four times as likely to be arrested for possession of marijuana as compared to the Whites. This disparity is even more pronounced in Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota, states where Blacks are eight times as likely to be arrested compared to other ...

IntroductionEthnicity and race are important in human interactions and their importance as sociological concepts means they have been widely studied. However, the relationship of these concepts with the concept of religion is an area where more studies need to be done. For the purpose of this study, an ethnic grouping is a social category of person who shares a universal culture like religion and common language. Ethnic groups are conscious of their universal cultural bond. A race is a group that, based on certain characteristic, is treated as distinct in society.

These individuals varied from the ages of 18 and up. Most were married male Caucasians of the middle class. The scores of each respondent are added up and can fall between the ranges of twenty to eighty. Higher scores would indicate that the individual is considered lonelier. This study would be very ...

Jury Nullification

“You . . . police the Police. You police them by your verdict. You are the ones to send the message. Nobody else is going to do it in this society. You . . . are the ones in war; you are the ones on the front line” Johnnie Cochran, 1995 O.J. Simpson trial, on jury nullification
Jury nullification refers to a jury’s decision to return a verdict of “not guilty” even when the jury believes that the defendant is guilty of the criminal charges. In essence, the jury “nullifies” a law that it does not want to apply to the defendant, either because the jury ...

Racial division in communities

Racism is defined simply as a discrimination of people based on their race or their tribe. When most people think of racism what comes to their mind is oppression of white people to the non-whites. It is however of note that racism occurs both ways not just what most people want to think. Division by race is a common occurrence in most communities. It is not uncommon to see a “Latino” or even a pure “Black” neighborhood. Reasons for this range from security in numbers and some say it is a sense of pride for their culture. Racism sets roots in such settings as ...

Abstract

The level of crime and violence in the society has increased significantly and many law enforcers have had to find a number of strategies to deal with the challenges of apprehending criminals.

In many cases law enforcers often target person of color for humiliating and in many instances these targeted persons face the frightening experiences of being detained, interrogated, and searched because of ...

Introduction

The racial and cultural or ethnic composition of the American people is in fluctuation. The rise in the number of immigrants from Latin America and Asia have increased a large portion of cultural and phenotypic assortment to the American populace in recent decades similar to the immigration wave from south and east Europe over a hundred years ago. In addition, the precincts between racial and ethnic groups are becoming extinct through the rise of intermarriage as well as the upsurge of the number of persons with diverse ancestry. The issues and concerns of ethnicity date back centuries in America. Social analysts ...

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

Racism has been dismissed as a vice of the past by many leaders; indeed some of them argue that the end of apartheid in South Africa marked the end of racism in this era of civilization. However, to any one who lives in a racially diverse community such as America, racism is not yet a vice of the past- it is still existent. It may not be well pronounced like was seen in South Africa or even during the Jewish Holocaust but it is still existent in our various social structures. In America, racial connotations such as the words ‘nigga’ and ‘ ...

Racism in the United States continues to be a big issue nationally and in states, institutions, offices and daily commute. However, it is not as severe as it were in the past few centuries. Regardless of the vice, America should be at a point in life when everyone enjoys equality and a chance to interact with whoever they want. Racism is existent in concentrated areas like schools and prisons where different races forms alliances amongst themselves. It leads to constant racial fights and drifts. The new generation of racism should be a national issue whereby everyone should change their ...

According to One World Nations Online, Spanish, next to English, is one of the most widely spoken languages in the United States as well as in the world. Including second language speakers, there are currently more than four hundred million people who speak Spanish. When we say ‘Spanish’, one of the attributes we can connect to it is the notion of romance or of love. Love, however, is about communicating and the primary tool of communication is language. It makes sense therefore to conclude that ...

Why is this topic significant:

The number of foreign students going to America to pursue their studies keep increasing every year. Knowledge and information about these issues will help them prepare for what to expect.

The cases of injustice among members of ethnic minority groups appear to be escalating despite wide media attention.

Racial stereotyping, discrimination, and prejudice are serious problems that have major effects on the education and life of foreign students in America.
The most recent case of Ahmed Mohamed, a 14-year old Muslim student who was arrested for bringing to school a digital clock he made using a pencil case, which the teacher misconstrued as a hoax bomb, represents the situation that members of ethnic minority groups studying in ...

Introduction

Diversity in the work place according to Otike, Messah, and Mwalekwa (2001) refers to a situation whereby there is the existence of personnel from different socio-cultural backgrounds working in the same organization. It encompasses differences in age, color, creed, race, ethnicity, gender and physical ability. Workplace diversity has become an important aspect of carrying out business and other activities and operations in many organizations globally due to the impacts of globalization of the job market whereby companies hire personnel from diverse ethnic, cultural and racial social backgrounds (Beham, Straub, & Schwalbach, 2015). Nowhere is this diversity at the work ...

Abstract

Biasness is the extent to which individual indulges in the stereotypical behavior based on the differences that account for various ethnic differences, cultural differences and gender differences. Children in this instance are also found to be indulging in the biasness regardless of their personal adherence and their act of biasness is found to be driven by their surroundings. The act of biasness in children is found to be driven by their familial responses in which the parents, guardians and elders of the children ascend their biased behavior in children as part of their early upbringing and thus, children develop ...

Corporal punishment is considered inflicting of physical pain upon a prisoner as a punishment for violation of a prison rule or regulation. Such forms of conduct include, but are not limited to whipping, cold shower, electrical shocking devices and suspension from cell bars by handcuffs. The use of solitary imprisonment as a system of punishing violations of prison discipline is not included within corporal punishment definition. Most states have no statutes that specifically forbid the use of corporal punishment. Other states, however, prohibit corporal punishment in detention facilities by the statue.
The use of corporal punishment to reinforce prison ...

History plays a major role in the growth of a community. It can make it either better or worse depending on how people take up the lessons learnt. A positive effect would be ideal in the overall progress of a community since it will guarantee fairness while negative effects might lead to more collisions with the affected parties. Slavery exhibits both positive and negative effects to the community. Slavery is the imprisonment of an inferior race or community with the aim of making them workers. The slavery trade brought different reactions and impacts to the society that still affects ...

Introduction

The purpose of this study is to determine the deterrent effect of the death penalty or capital punishment in the commission of future crimes. Most of the criminal experts believe that the justification for the imposition of the death penalty against criminals should be for retributive grounds and to make the criminals suffer the consequences of their actions. Thus, when a person kills another, the retributive effect of capital punishment or the death penalty is take the life of the murderer (Radelet & Akers, 1996). The main reason for the imposition of the death penalty is to discourage the murderers to ...

My representations are of two materials that are closely related about the suburbs of St. Louis and as such are from approximately the same period. The first is a picture from 1917 and is named "mob stopping street car". The second is an article from the New York Times called “Massacre at St. Louis." The major theme that keeps reoccurring in these two texts is that of racism in America. Saint Louis is rumored to be one of the most racist cities in the country, and that is no exception to its suburbs.

Homosexuality and how societies deal with homosexual individuals is an issue that has created a great amount of controversy and discussions. It appears that the homosexuals were under “attack” once they had decided to step out of the sealed closed doors and state out loud their sexual preferences, claiming their right for fair treatment and a chance for a happy life with their other half.
Truth is the homosexuals were once considered societal “monsters” and had to be banished from the communities they belonged. They were simply opposed to everything that has been by then established; the morals, the values, the ...

Introduction

People living in community posses diverse needs and willing to get access to
multiple resources. This accompanied with certain restriction or limitations at facilities in their daily schedule could disturb them. Very often this trend could also lead to emotional or psychological distress. All people have equal rights and receiving an unbiased response from the other side is of paramount importance. For instance in public amenities, educational institution, work place or at hospital, certain individuals representing a specific ethnic background or race are more likely to receive an unpleasant reaction. In more adverse cases, there could be a violence or a ...

ABSTRACT

Statistics reveal that there are over one million asylum seekers around the world every year. Asylums seeker have different definitions, but the most basic idea is that they are people seeking to leave their countries because their lives are at risk because of their race, color, religion, political persecution, war, or natural disasters (Bozorgmehr and Razum, 2015; Esses, V. et al, 2008). Many factors determine whether the refugees will be accepted in their intended country or not. Demographic variables, as well as the attitudes of the natives and the attitudes of the asylum seekers, determine the kind of attitude ...

Cohabitation and its Effects on Relationships and Marriage

Introduction
Popular media and scholarly research both show statistically that cohabitation among couples is on the rise. The increase in cohabitation has changed family dynamics and attitudes about marriage among couples and society. Now that cohabitation has been more acceptable to society for at least the past three decades, it will be interesting to see what affect it had on relationships, marriage, and divorce over the past few years.
The first question to explore will be whether or not cohabitation leads to divorce. Couples often rationalize their choice to live together before marriage by seeing cohabitation as a “ ...

Young adults between the ages of 18 and 25 need at least seven hours of sleep each night to maintain their cognitive, emotional, and physical functions, but college students tend to lack quality sleep. A sample of 1,160 college students reported sleeping on average 5.85 ± 1.85 hours per night, and 35% of them considered their sleep bad or very bad (Elagra et al., 2016). Lack of sleep has been associated with higher risk of negative moods, unintentional injuries, risk-taking behaviors, and poor academic performance (National Adolescent and Young Adult Health Information Center, 2014). Although various negative effects of ...

Women have been the subject of discrimination and inequality in the past. And despite the societal progress and development, as well as the emergence of legislations that protect their rights, women remain to experience inequality in one way or another. One of the inequality that is still prevalent today, even in progressive countries is the gender wage gap. The gender wage gap is defined as the average difference of the hourly earnings between men and women (European, 2) A study conducted at the Institute for Women’s Policy Research revealed that women were paid lower than men in a ...

Objectionable material is a publication expresses, depicts, and describes issues that have to deal with horror, sex, cruelty, crime, or violence. Objectionable occurs when the publication is likely to be injurious to the general public. This implies that all the objectionable material has been banned from use and spreading to the general public (Jacob, 1999). There are a number of factors used to determine whether a publication is objectionable and whether it should be restricted or not. The consideration is given to the point in which the publication deals with acts of torture caused by inflicting physical harm on ...

Introduction

There has been a cold war between the United States and Cuba since the island was under the rule of Spaniards. In the 1960s, all the US businesses in Cuba were nationalized without any compensation and the US government broke the diplomatic relations with Havana and imposed a trade embargo in response to the Castro's reforms. The Spaniards did not have good relations with the US government and left Cuba with the fear that it might be attacked by the US (Husain 24). The American trade embargo was later made permanent in response to the shooting down of US ...

Bullying is prevalent in schools, colleges and even in work places. The problem is all-pervading and affects productivity at work places. This paper tries to understand the debilitating effects work place bullying, specifically managerial level harassment. It is a known fact that employees suffer mentally and physically due to stress of working under bullying bosses. Various levels of research indicate that the managerial bulling goes undocumented, as employers do not consider it as a serious threat to the organization. In addition, there are no laws to protect the employees from ...
