@m_munger_ I feel like history repeats itself but in different ways. The prison systems is just another way. I feel like Alexander (the new Jim crow laws) shows this in her book.
@JozieSocl214 In the 70s my dad applied as an electrician & he was told he was the wrong color & gender a few years ago he got a call saying they were looking at his application(from the 70) & was wondering if he was still interested being an electrician. I've seen what you are talking about
@ajanae_watson I think Hollywood is interesting on this. I think they should of kept the again characters. As it helps people see others in movies. #socl214
@mk7dan I remember learning in history that it was considered beautiful to have relaxed and straight hair. Which it is still crazy to think about because it wasn't that long ago.
@its_naenaee I totally agree with what you have said. I never knew what it meant until I watched the video. I feel like the the term is not widely used.
@its_naenaee I totally agree with what you have said. I went to a school where a lot of families were rich and would pay for their kids to have extra practice or tutors for the SAT. #socl214
@BonaminioJoshua I agree with this because my family has documents from when they came over in the 1800's. They were just considered German, Russian, polish. It was always talked about and not just saying they are from a white county.
@angelgrvce I agree with what you have said. That Europeans where the first ones to classify everyone based on the color of their skin. That once ago race was never a term but rather a trait. #socl214
