  1. Racial Profiling

  2. Purposeful Racism An example of Purposeful Racism would be in the Arizona Law number SB1070 called the “Support Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act ”. This Law allows Arizona State Police Officers to detain any suspicicouslooking characters. Officers may even detain legal citizens because of their ethnic background. Another example of Purposeful Racism can be found in Airports.
  3. Airport Security Since the attacks on the United States soil on September the 11th, 2001, security in airports has risen exponentially. Most common airport screenings include walking through metal detectors, placing baggage through screening, and taking the shoes off. If TSA officials suspect anything out of the ordinary, they are free to have a same gender to gender pat down, or a hand -wanding which is a private screening.
  4. Accidental Racism Accidental Racism occurs almost everyday in our lives. An example of accidental racism could occur when you are walking down a sidewalk, and see an african-americanman who looks suspicious, your initial instinct would be to avoid contact and sometimes cross the street to the other sidewalk. A recent example of accidental racism would be the Trevon Martin murder case.
  5. The TrevonMartin Case On the night of February 26th, George Zimmerman was on the local neighborhood patrol when he spotted a teenager walking after dark and looked supicious, wearing a hooded sweatshirt, so he called the police. Zimmerman than decided to follow the teenage male against the will of the 911 dispatcher. Zimmerman than fatally shot the teenager in the chest. What happened inbetween is still unknown, but many believe this was a racial profiling case against young african-american males. Although, Zimmerman is not a white male but of a minority group.
  6. Conclusion Racial Profiling is still strong in the world. As it was not long ago slavery was abolished in the world with the last country in 1981 with Mauritania. A thought we want you all to think about is that the TSA ( Transportation Security Administration) has just recently on April 4, 2012, started a “ pre- check” security system at New York’s LaGuardia for those who qualify. Will ethnicity be a requirement?
