"This sense of the erotic and dangerous nature of people of color gets attached to not only their bodies, but also their music, art, and other elements in their culture." (UR pg. 109) #NQSOC221

"We must understand how we have demonized others to justify the violence. Therefore, one way to lower our fear is to acknowledge and reduce white violence." (UR pg. 102) #NQSOC221

"When the federal building in Oklahoma City was bombed, most people immediately suspected Arab men as the culprits. In each situation, the search for the guilty white man was temporarily diverted toward men of color." (UR pg. 101) #NQSOC221

@haleyco17937176 100% agree. I think it is a lot more unique and makes life more enjoyable when there are more colors and personalities involved. What do you have to gain with everyone with the same mindset?

[Drew A @DrewAwYeah]

@laurendianne19 I agree, I think the book talking about fear really shined a light that there are people that will act out of fear even though there is nothing to be scared about. Another word I think that could be used is jealously as well.

[Drew A @DrewAwYeah]

@haleyco17937176 The stereotypical "perfect American" is long overdue for an update. You do not have to be white nor christian to contribute to this society in a positive way.

@gabiglass2 As a white male, it is very unfortunate there are people out there that live this life. I have family members who are in interracial marriages and my family has never been non-accepting of anyone solely due to color, religion, etc.

[Drew A @DrewAwYeah]

@bdillonbsu I think fear and lack of education being mixed together is not good for certain communities out there, because it usually leads to negative actions.

[Drew A @DrewAwYeah]

@bdillonbsu it is sickening when you come to understand that the people with plenty of financial power, how much they actually control.

@gabiglass2 This statistic is jaw-dropping. The amount of corruption in certain sports is unbelievable #NQSoc221

[Drew A @DrewAwYeah]

@Keilah_Charee I really like this tweet. I have never taken the time to really sit back and compare the two #NQSOC221

@bdillonbsu I am doing my poster and paper over racism in sports and I am looking forward to having a part to really talk about how owners mistreat their players for greed. #NQSoc221

[Drew A @DrewAwYeah]

@NoahW221 Very good point. Just because we look up to these individuals, we need to come to the realization that they are still breathing the same air we are. #NQSoc221

@christy_garke43 As a white person who does not like NASCAR at all, I am still nowhere near surprised that whites watch the sport the most. #NQSoc221

@diana62020 being a huge sport fan my whole life, I have been a first hand witness to the NCAA favoring men over women. #NQSoc221
