Racial Bias - Rosie 9D by Rosie Lee https://padlet.com/glee221/mcxrshwi1ddr To Kill a Mockingbird en-us 2018-08-24 03:32:43 UTC 2018-09-07 13:41:12 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Prizecup.png Mr. Dolphus Raymond (Pg. 183) glee221 https://padlet.com/glee221/mcxrshwi1ddr/wish/274191543 "Always does. He likes 'em better'n he likes us, I reckon. Lives by himself way down near the county line. He's got a colored woman and all sorts of mixed chillun. Show you some of 'em if we see 'em."

Mr. Raymond didn't like how the society had treated people with different colors back in the 1930's. The whites treated the blacks with no respect, called them names and were mean to them. The whites were treated the exact opposite from the black people. With this, Mr. Dolphus Raymond tended to be more with the blacks more than the whites. This had caused the white people to think that Dolphus Raymond was drunk, since most white people didn't hang out with the black people at that time.

Grandma says it's bad enough he lets you all run wild, but now he's turned out a nigger-lover we'll never be able to walk the streets of Maycomb again. He's ruinin' the family, that's what he's doin'."

I chose this quote from the book because Francis teased Scout that her father is a nigger-lover and that Atticus is ruining the family. Francis showed racial bias when he was talking to Scout that her father defending Tom Robinson is not a good idea for the family and to herself as well. He was clearly making a stereotype that all blacks are unacceptable and should be treated badly.

Jem stiffened. Mrs. Dubose's shot had gone home and she knew it: "Yes indeed, what has this world come to when a Finch goes against his raising? I'll tell you!" She put her hand to her mouth. When she drew it away, it trailed a long silver thread of saliva. "Your father's no better than the niggers and trash he works for!"

I chose this quote from the book because Mrs. Dubose is making Jem and Scout feel bad about their father, who was just defending a victim at the court. Atticus was defending a black man named Tom Robinson, and Mrs. Dubose is saying that Atticus shouldn't defend him because he is black. She had a racial bias in which she thinks that all black people is bad and shouldn't be trusted around white people.

Jem said, "Yessum, she took us." I remembered something. "Yessum, and she promised me I could come out to her house some afternoon. Atticus, I'll go next Sunday if it's all right, can I? Cal said she'd come get me if you were off in the car." "You may not." Aunt Alexandria said it."

I chose this quote from the book because Aunt Alexandria said "you may not" to Scout. The reason Aunt Alexandria said that to Scout was because she had a racial bias in which she thought all black people were dangerous and all white children shouldn't be with black people.

Though less likely to face overt obstacles, like being refused an appointment to see a home, minority customers were shown fewer available units than whites with similar qualifications, the study found."

"They's my comp'ny," said Calpurnia. Again I thought her voice strange: she was talking like the rest of them. " Yeah, an' I reckon you's comp'ny at the Finch house during the week."

I chose this quote from the book because Lula had a racial bias in which white children cannot come to the black church. It kind of made sense since there was a church for all the white people to go to, but it still didn't seem fair for Scout and Jem.

The Howard Journal of Communications study reveals that, during the ten seasons from 2008 to 2017, referees called a disproportionate number of personal fouls against female basketball players from historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) compared to female basketball players from predominantly white institutions (PWIs). The findings add to mounting evidence that racial discrimination remains an issue in sport today. In recent years, several high-profile examples have been reported in professional leagues nationwide, including the National Football League (NFL) and the National Hockey League (NHL)."

This order, given by me to Cecil Jacobs, was the beginning og a rather thin time for Jem and me. My fists were clenched and I was ready to let fly. Atticus had promised me he would wear me out if he ever heard of me fighting any more; I was far too old and too big for such childish things, and the sooner I learned to hold in, the better off everybody would be. I soon forgot. Cecil Jacobs made me forget. He had announced in the schoolyard the day before that Scout Finch's daddy defended niggers."

I chose this quote from the book because Cecil Jacobs had shown racial bias when he said that Scout Finch's dad defended the black people. He said that to make Scout feel bad about her father and also make her know that her father defending Tom Robinson is not a good idea.

Doctors consistently provide worse care to people of color, particularly African-Americans and Latinos. In studies that control for socioeconomic status and access to care, researchers have found racial disparities in the quality of care across a wide range of diseases: asthma, heart attack, diabetes and prenatal care, to name a few. Two studies performed in emergency rooms showed that doctors were far more likely to fail to order pain medication for black and Hispanic patients who came in with bone fractures."

I chose this article because the article states clearly on how the doctors provide worse care to people of color, while they provide better care to people of the color "white". The article also said that the doctors were far likely to give pain medicine to black and hispanic patients, in their perspective is totally unfair.
