Hi Julio, I just finished the transcription for your post "Is the Criminal Justice System Color Blind" and I have to agree with you in that no, it definitely isn't. The American Dream? Well, it turns out you can only have that dream if you are white, male, and get really damned lucky. We always talk about opportunities and whatnot, that if you will work hard you will move up the ladder, but the reality of the matter is that you can only go so far. I don't think it's so much that there are divisions between social classes, but that determination will only get you so far. Eventually, some sort of discrimination (of race, or gender) will pull you down.
Many, many people are subject to racial discrimination every day, and I completely agree with you -as long as we don't talk about it, nothing can or will be done to change it. Racism and sexism are still abundant in the United States -as much as we would like to say otherwise, we haven't gotten rid of them yet. They are an ever-present issue (one that I feel strongly about, as you've probably noticed by now from the tone of this letter -it's great, I love writing, particularly on something this close to my heart).
On the front page of the Between the Bars website, it states that "1% of Americans... are in prison" and the continuation of that sentence is that a large portion of those people are people of color. That alone definitely does not mean that they have been a victim of discrimination (they may have, but it does not necessarily follow). There are people of every race and of every color that will do something "bad", be it on accident or intended, and it is up to the justice system to somehow quantify their actions in order to pass judgement. Unfortunately, someone's race can have an impact (sometimes big, sometimes small) on how their crime is quantified.
Thank you, and keep writing. ---C.B.B. (candleships)
"You may not lie idly awaiting the second coming of anybody now, because the world is yours and it is up to you."
It's part of a longer speech, but that right there is the line I've had ringing around in my head all these years.
