It is statements/questions like these that encourage racism.  I realize it is a seemingly innocent question, but the tone of it lends to lump a whole race/religion of people into one category and then analyzes them all according to one assumption.

Racism is commonly defined as a belief or doctrine where inherent biological differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, with a corollary that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule.

If you mean to imply that certain events which occur in the film are justified on a subtectual level of causality, much in the same way that, for instance, naughty girls in slasher horror films get killed because of the very fact that they are naughty, and not strictly because of the situation in which they find themselves in, then you might be correct.  Are you afraid this kind of subliminal discourse will have a negative impact on someone's view of inter-racial relationships?  I think whatever the spectator walks away with will simply reinforce whatever they already believe.  I personally think sentiment in favor of inter-racial relationships is obvious in Peter Jackson's KING KONG.

Congratulations, your ideology so far, would make you a great new Hitler. Please continue, the last one did some BIG things.\nSorry, but when I read things like this question I just wanna cry...\n:-(\n\nWhat parts are deleted? \nIf you want to strip your mind from others teachings, that is fine, but why wouldn't you want to take advice from others?\nDo you really thing the rulers of the world are pro-Bible? Where do you live? I would like to move there. If you write a book from the aspects of the common man, let us know.\n\nI can understand if you don't believe that the Bible is inspired by God, you don't give it as much credit as I do. Still you should at least reconsider your thoughts about the burning part. Even to a non-believer, the Bible can teach so many principals, that would help you through your life. I read a lot of literature from christians, non-christians, because I know, that I can only gain. I even gained from your question here, I like to reconsider my own beliefs from another persons point of view.

You can approach this from multiple aspects:\nThe light and dark as associated with the two locations.\nThe notions of civility and barbarism, and whether what is seemingly  civilized is in actuality barbaric.\n\nThese are some places to start.

You might be interested to check out a website that does research on topics such as this-- It's called Project Implicit, and it's an ongoing Harvard study. I found out about it while reading the book, "Blink", by Malcom Gladwell. (Great book, by the way-- I enjoyed it more than his other one, "The Tipping Point") You can register (it's free and quick) and participate, and/or see results of past studies. It has things that are race-related, gender related, and sooo much more-- really interesting stuff!! -- I'm going to post it as a new topic, for those who might find it of use-- I hope you're getting the answers you were looking for! -- Also, my thoughts on all of the above are pretty standard, as I have some Aboriginal blood in me- (MicMac) -- I'm curious as to why you posted the question, though, as there may be those who answer with the stereotypical racist comments-- Anyway, I hope the site gives you more information to satisfy your curiosity-- I have to say, it does make you THINK, and can challenge what you thought you knew about yourself!-- Bye for now, have a great week!\n\nhttps://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/research/

I have not seen anything that says it is better.\n\nWhat message should the young people of today pass on about Anne's story? \nThe message to take from Anne's story is to stop prejudice and discrimination right at its beginning. Prejudice starts when we speak about THE Jews, THE Arabs, THE Asians, THE Mexicans, THE Blacks, THE Whites. This leads to the feeling that all members of each such group think and act the same. That results in prejudice. Lumping entire groups of people together is RACISM, because it denies the fact that everyone is an individual. Even our own brothers and sisters or parents are not exactly like we are. So how do we dare to lump entire groups of people together? If any German had ever asked Anne to tell something about herself, I think she would be still with us today. However, nobody asked: she was just a Jew! Therefore, never base your opinion about anybody else on the color of that person's skin, or on the passport that a person carries, or on the family that person comes from, but only on what the person says and does and on NOTHING ELSE.

I agree with you in principal, and I feel political correctness is a form of "New Age McCarthyism". Unfortunately, the pendulum has swung the other way for now, but it was so badly biased in the past, that this is a natural effect. Hopefully it will find a stasis, and color, race or religion won't matter in the next few generations.

Below is Ashante's racist poem:\n\n  "White nationalism is what put you in bondage\nPirate and vampires like Columbus, Morgan, and Darwin\nDrank the blood of the sheep, trampled all over them with\nSteel, tricks and deceit.\nNothing has changed take a look in our streets\nThe mis-education of she and Hegro -- leaves you on your knee2grow\nBlack lands taken from your hands, by vampires with no remorse\nThey took the gold, the wisdom and all of the storytellers\nThey took the black women, with the black man weak\nMade to watch as they changed the paradigm\nOf our village\nThey killed the blind, they killed the lazy, they went\nSo far as to kill the unborn baby\nYeah White nationalism is what put you in bondage\nPirates and vampires like Columbus, Morgan, and Darwin\nThey drank the blood of the sheep, trampled all over them with\nSteel laden feet, throw in the tricks alcohol and deceit.\nNothing has changed take a look at our streets. \n\n  It appears  this girl is a home daddy taught racist. However I have to agree with the other poster in that it sounds more like her daddy's writting than a 7 year old girl. \n\n  I do however believe she is a racist, a home grown racist in a home grown racist education atmosphere. She would put Al "Shakedown" Sharpton to shame.\n\n   The oddity and fact here is that we in America have only two protected types of racism. That being the racism of Blacks and that of Jews. Either one of these two  races could say and do anything and no one will even flinch . But let it be any other race and especially a white person and even more so now a middle eastern person and you've got  what is necessary for a riot.\n\n   Fact is there is white nationalism and this poor misinformed girl dosn't even understand it. In real White nationalism they wouldn't even think of owning slaves. In fact they want nothing to do with them and rightly so. True White natinalism would have never brought slaves over in the first place nor would they have anything to do with their women. If this young girl who is touted as intelligent knew anything true of history she would have never blamed her bondage on "Whites" but in fact would have put the blame on the Jews where it belongs. It is fact that Jews capitalized and controled the slave industry and were responsible for the greater slavery of the black peoples.\n\n  And what is with  "Columbus, Morgan, and Darwin\nDrank the blood of the sheep?" Does she mean real sheep blood or is she intending us to believe that they are implying that they are the sheep of  ( Israel-Gods chosen). If that is her intended farce then we know that this poem is mostly fiction and that of a true racist mind.\n\n She is misinformed about whites taking the blacks land from them. In fact it was the blacks whom were taken from their land and the blacks who sold their own into slavery and gave them their weak men for slavery. It was a joint business deal between the black slave traders and the Jewish slave traders.\n\n And she states " They took the black women," Who took them? Well, this is full of hypocrissy because in America it is the blacks who took the white women!\n\n "They killed the blind, they killed the lazy, they went\nSo far as to kill the unborn baby" Well those who kill the unborn baby are only half the problem, the other half belongs to the black woman who agrees with abortion. It is factual that more blacks have abortions in America than any other race. So how is that black decission a  white mans falt?\n\n "throw in the tricks alcohol and deceit."  Most deciet I have encountered in America is from the Black man. Not to mention that I am hit up for money by blacks some 2 dozen tims or more a year. No one makes the black man buy or lust after the alchohol. Their ideal is that since there are many more bars in black areas which cause more drunken black men that it is the fault of the white man.

Radical Criminology: Theoretical Origins.\nOne of the first things to note or understand is that "Marxism", as a theoretical\nperspective, involves a number of different variants (or "ways of seeing" the social\nworld). In this respect, although we often tend to talk about Marxism as if there were\nonly one kind (just as we tend to talk about other sociological perspectives - such as\nFunctionalism - as if it only involved one basic set of ideas), it is evident that\nMarxism, as a school of thought, has been interpreted in a number of different ways\nby various writers.\nHowever, just as it's important to realise that any sociological perspective will involve\nwriters who may interpret the social world in small, but important ways, it's also\nimportant not to go too far in the other direction and see the work of any writer as\nbeing "complete unto itself" (that is, to treat the work of individual sociologists almost\nas "perspectives" in their own right.\nWriters who call themselves Marxists do have a number of things in common and,\nwhilst it's important not to over-estimate this "Communality of ideas", it's also\nimportant to recognise that what they share is a broad set of basic assumptions\nabout both the nature of the social world and how to study that world.\nHaving noted the above, a brief discussion of the basic theoretical tradition that has\ninformed much Radical Criminology will be useful for a number of reasons:\n1. Firstly, because it will help you to recognise a couple of basic variations in\nMarxist thought.\n2. Secondly, the next Study Pack in this series concentrates on the work of\nMarxist Conflict theorists who have criticised Radical Criminology from\nanother Marxist perspective ("New Left Realism"). It will, therefore, be\ninstructive to look-at and understand the theoretical traditions that each draws\nupon in order to understand both the differences in interpretation involved\nand, most importantly, the basis of the "New Left Realist" rejection of Radical\nCriminology on theoretical - as opposed to ideological - grounds.\n3. Finally, by understanding some of the theoretical assumptions of Radical\nCriminology it should make it easier for you to carry-out an evaluation of this\nparticular brand of Marxist Conflict theory.\nWhat I want to do in the following couple of pages is:\na. Outline some of the basic ideas involved in the theoretical tradition upon\nwhich Radical Criminology is based.\nb. Evaluate these ideas in relation to criticisms put-forward by Marxists\nworking within a rather different theoretical tradition (if this all sounds a bit\ncomplicated, things should become a bit clearer as we start to look at the\nabove ideas in more detail).\nAs I've previously said, an overall evaluation of Radical Criminology will be included\nat the end of these Notes\nInitially, the most important idea to note is that Radical Criminology was / is based\nupon the theoretical tradition of a variant of Marxism which we can term "Instrumental\nMarxism".\nIf you are particularly interested in looking at this tradition in more depth, Ralph\nMilliband's book "The State In Capitalist Society" is a good example here.\nThe basic idea to understand in this respect is that "Instrumental Marxists" argue that\nthe operation of all social institutions (for example, work, family, education, legal\nsystems and so forth) and specific agencies of social control (the police, mass media\nand the like) can be linked - either directly or indirectly - to the needs, purposes and\nbasic interests of a Capitalist "ruling class".\nIn this respect, all institutions in our society are seen to "function" in a more-or-less\nseamless way to promote the interests of a ruling class.\nWhilst it's important to note that Instrumental Marxists do not use the concept of\n"function" in the same

The best place to get information is probably the internet.  Just take into consideration that asnwers will be biased by the typographical location.  I.E an article in Alabama will be more pro KKK than the same article with a twist wrote in New York.

wasn't it something like whether people are truly rascist in their hearts and it was dangerous to ask because you might not want to know the answer or something? its been a while since i read that book...its one of my favorites though.
