De Jure Segregation is not permitted in mondern life. However, in the past De Jure Segregation was present in schools, banks, movie theaters, grocery stores, and almost everywhere in between.

Examples being factors such as economic status or political differences.

In modern life De Facto Segregation is seen throughout society in several places. However, a larger population of black people are seen in certain neighborhoods. Despite the fact that deliberate racial segregation is prohibited in schools, this still leads to schools with a majority of black students.

It can be seen hidden in laws or regulations within society.

Systemic racism is seen today in the form of police brutality. Black people are stereotyped as dangerous, especially at night, often wearing hoods. Police officers are more suspcious of a black person than they are a white person due to norms that make them think that black people are more dangerous, and less important in society than white people.

In this modern world an example would be police officers using physical force to stop protests while the protesters stand there in peace without defending themselves or hurting others.

People often have an implicit bias due to what they are comfortable with or more familiar with. 

In today's society heterosexual people unknowingly favor other heterosexual people rather than people of other sexualities. This is not because they are unsupportive of the LGBTQ community. Instead it is because they are more familiar with heterosexual people. This is also seen in relation to weight. Fit/thinner people feel more comfortable with other fit/thin people over someone who is overweight because that is just what they feel more accustomed to.

That being a form of segregation in which people are legally forced to separate amongst each other based upon factors such as in this case being skin color. Segregation laws known as Jim Crow laws were enacted in which forced black people and white people to seperate from one another. They were forced to segregate everywhere from schools to theaters. The Civil Rights Movement attempted to eliminate De Jure Segregation through protests as there wasn't much else that they could do at the time.

De Facto Segregation is a form of segregation in which groups of people seperate even if the law isn't requiring it. Systemic racism is racism seen embedded deeply in the laws and regulations in society. Implicit bias is a subconscious preference for one group of people over another. Even though De Jure Segregation is illegal, De Facto Segregation, Systemic racism, and implicit bias's are still highly present in modern society. It is often harder to see, as it is not as visible as De Jure Segregation would be. In the modern civil rights movement, people still contain to protest racism, however have also developed new ways to fight racism that they necessarily didn't use in the past. Nowadays people use social media platforms to speak out about what they believe in, as well as to educate others who may not even be aware of these forms of racism.

This riot broke out in retaliation against racism and segregation, it was to raise  awareness and try to end racism segregation as a total. In the year 2020 a large protest march lasting for multiple months, all over different regions of the United States, was for the Black Lives Matter movement. This movement is to fight against racism, discriminatory actions against people of color, and anti-black actions. The march was to fight for an end to systemic racism (amongst any other form of racism). Both or theses riots/marches were in favor of raising awareness and trying to put an end to racism whether is be segregation of systemic racism. The riots from the past, like the Harlem riot paved the way for riots/marches today, it helped to show what did and didn't work and gave example of what people should do today. Riots in the past were not entirely successful in achieving civil rights, however they paved the way for protests today. In modern life, the Black Lives Matter Movement fights for civil rights through protests. Protests are successful in the fight for civil rights, as it spreads awareness and draws attention to the issue of civil rights.

A significant part of Kimberlés fight for civil rights includes voicing her own opinion to spread awareness on the issue. Kimberlé has spoken in the Ẅhy cant we wait campaigned, and has co-authored several books, including Black Girls Matter: Pushed Out, Overpoliced and Underprotected, and Say Her Name: Resisting Police Brutality Against Black Woman. She actively fights for civil rights through her own co-founded African American Policy Forum. This was created to  research several ways to enchance social inclusion. In addition, she has hosted workships all over the world, teching people about equality. Civil Rights Activists like Kimberlé are very important in the continuous fight for civil rights, as they constantly are spreading awareness in a peaceful way.

He was one of the original members of the SNCC. This a group that strongly contributed to the civil rights movement. They particpated in the Freedom Rides. This was a form of protest in which a group and white people and black people would ride together on buses in the attempt to fight segregation on buses. As a civil rights activist, Julian's main goals was to eliminate segregation in piblic places such as buses and lunch counters. However, Julian eventully realized tht the problem was bigger than he thought. He new he would have to do even more to get what he wanetd. Julian then proceeded to go door-to-door to citizens houses to converse about what they want the community to look like. Julian then used this information to fight for change in the civil rights movement.

His main goal is to use the internet as well as social media to spread awareness and fight for civil rights. Civil rights activists in the past would never have thought of using the internet as a way of fighting for equality. However, James Rucker has used modern technology in several ways. James has co-founded the most popular website regarding advocacy for black people. They have over 800,000 users on his website. In addition, James has co-founded the CEL. That is a incubator designed to encourage people to fight for what they believe in and for positive change in the civil rights movement. These are just one amongst the many ways in which James Rucker has used social media to create change. If others followed in James's footsteps, far more awareness would be spread regarding the civil rights movement.

However, this is far from the truth. When fighting for something it is incredibly important to celebrate small success's and victories along the way as it will encourage one to reach their goals. Success doesn't have to be one large goal. Even small successes are important. The Civil Rights Movement was moderately successful. Although racism hasn't been eliminated entirely, there have been countlesss victories along the way. This may include voting rights for black people or laws prohibiting slavery and segregation. People of the past never could have imagined life without these things. However, the civil rights movement have successfully accomplished a lot, and continue to fight.

These dogs were placed to remind the people walking through it of the fear that those dogs caused the rioters. It reminds people of the hardship that the Civil Right activists went through. This memorial nowadays gives modern day activist an insight into the past as to what people of then had to face and why they still strive for a better tomorrow.

Oftentimes it is seen that younger people hold more modern political and social views that older generations do, as that grew up in a different time. This is why young activists tend to drive modern social movements. There happen to be several advantages as well as disadvantages to this. ONe advantage being that young people are the future. It is a positive thing to see many young people not afraid to fight for what they believe in. However, teh age of these activists could pose a problem as people tend to take youth and yoing adults not seriously. Many would be more likely to listen and agree with an older persson rather than a young person. Over the course of the Civil Rights Movements, this could pose danger, as many young activists could be severely injured or killed through violence. However, young activists have been able to keep the civil rights movement fighting for so many years.

Unlike De Jure Segregation that is easily seen, these forms of racism can sometimes be invisible. Implicit bias is a subconscious preference for a certain group over another. Systemic racism is a form of racism deeply embedded within the laws and regulations of society. De Facto Segregation is a form of segregation in which groups of people seperate even if the law isn't requiring it. "The second highest level of implicit racial preference was among whites tested for bias against blacks, with 48% of whites recorded as having a subconscious preference for other whites over blacks." The second being white people tested for bias against Asian people, with 50% of white people having a subconsciouss preference for white people over Asian people. It is highly difficult to eliminate something that many people don't even realize is there. However, with a continuous spread of awareness more people will begin to learn about this issue.

This act was to help ban all discrimination based on race, skin color, or religion. In 1964 president John F. Kennedy introduced the bill right before his passing, and after his passing Lyndon B. Johnson passed the civil rights act. Because of this act is it now illegal to use or do anything discriminatory against people say of color. This act and movement has helped to desegregate the United States, and continues to do so because without it racism would still be legal and the civil rights movement would not have had accomplished nearly as much as they set out to do.

These things come from having years of misinformation such as the fact that black people have a higher pain tolerance than white people or stereotypes that every person of color is either a hoodlum or a robber. These stereotypes come from years of misinformation and rapid lies that spread all across the nation. Growing up in societies both then and now hearing these stereotypes, even though we know not everyone is bad, it's still put into out heads that every person of color is bad. With that we subconsciously think less of people of color and think the worst in them. This is why more people of color have been and still are more wrongfully convicted than white people. This issue is embedded into our society with roots so deep that it's nearly impossible to break. This issue from many years ago is still trying to be undone in today's society and is an ongoing issue that will take seemingly forever to break.

Police brutality is the unneccessary abuse or violence imposed by the police, typically upon black people. Police officers are taught to assume black people are moore dangerous than black people. They are taught to become suspicious of a black person if they are simply doing things like walking at night or wearing a hood.  In 2019, 1140 police violence deaths (1080–1190) occurred in males and 53 (51–55) occurred in females. It is highly likely that several of these deaths were the direct fault of the police officer. Policy brutality was a significant part of many people's lives in the past, and continues to carry into modern day. On May 25, 2020, George Floyd was killed through a terrible case of police brutality. The civil rights movement swung into action after this horrible incident occured, hoping to prevent such a thing from occuring again.
