Social theory : Social Hierarchy based on skin color results in colorism which leads to the discrimination of people based on the color of their skin.

Explanation of theory (why are you taking this position? Why do you see the world this way):

I realized this idea because my parents made me think about this theory. My parents prohibit me from talking to black people or getting close to them because they’re “dangerous”. My parents think this way because they have experiences with black people and some friends have too.  Social Hierarchy is a society's categorization of people based on what they value the most and the least. In America, we have many forms of social hierarchies, the most common one is a hierarchy based on skin color. America’s social hierarchy of skin color values white people at the top and African americans at the bottom. This causes discrimination amongst the people because we are being taught to value people based on this structure.

He was planning this days before the shooting happened. He states that somebody either had to get rid of black people because "black people are killing white people everyday." This connects to my social theory because their viewing black people as bad without knowing who they are.

They prohibit me from talking or getting close to black people because there "dangerous". They think this way because they have had bad experiences with black people. They view them as criminals, robbers, an bad people.]]> 2017-04-20 20:35:14 UTC https://padlet.com/2020mdiaz/ndopi6jk6gxp/wish/167377841 Evidence 3 2020mdiaz https://padlet.com/2020mdiaz/ndopi6jk6gxp/wish/167377858 This video shows how they treat the black " If they come back then we might have to kill them".

What stood out to me from the song is " Cops give a damn about a negro, pull a trigger kill a nigga hes a hero" This stood out to me because polices don't care about black people and really will shoot them for no reason.]]> 2017-04-20 21:10:27 UTC https://padlet.com/2020mdiaz/ndopi6jk6gxp/wish/167382108 Solutions 2020mdiaz https://padlet.com/2020mdiaz/ndopi6jk6gxp/wish/167579150 What we can do to end Racism is learn about other people different than us and share common and differences about each other.  Words hurt whether meaning them or not.]]> 2017-04-21 19:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/2020mdiaz/ndopi6jk6gxp/wish/167579150 Creative Writing 2020mdiaz https://padlet.com/2020mdiaz/ndopi6jk6gxp/wish/167742082 Line 1: I am an African American men
