The Racket of Racism by Ms.Finkbeiner https://padlet.com/kfinkbeiner/rqaa26hdmjb8 What were some of the striking facts/ideas/statistics/concepts/patterns/ideas/quotes/lines/etc. Romano pointed out? Tell what stood out to you here. en-us 2016-10-13 14:40:23 UTC 2026-01-20 00:51:39 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Bigthunderstorm.png a striking fact was that basically the jail system is doing the same things slave owners did by basically setting someone up then using them for their service and making a product off of it https://padlet.com/kfinkbeiner/rqaa26hdmjb8/wish/133467957 2016-10-26 19:53:20 UTC https://padlet.com/kfinkbeiner/rqaa26hdmjb8/wish/133467957 https://padlet.com/kfinkbeiner/rqaa26hdmjb8/wish/133467963 The beliefs that struck me were that history repeats itself and that 151 years later, black males are still being put down by the government figuratively and literally . Literally with the black males suffering from police brutality and figuratively with so many of poor black communities all across the country. Romany  Malco also talks about the fact that whites thought that blacks could not think a hundred years ago, and how he gave an example of this same idea of blacks  years later.

They tried to limit (if any) black rights. They have been doing this since the beginning, going into the late 1900´s.
