Post #4

The way Stokely Carmichael example of the difference between individual racism is “When unidentified white terrorists bomb a Negro church and kill five children. And institutionalized racism is when “Five hundred Negro babies die each year because of the lack of proper food, shelter and medical facilities,...” That’s a grand scale for one State. The govt. should not be able to ignore that, and because it does that becomes institutionalized racism. It is a community as whole that is struggling going through things no other community is going through. Primarily because according to Carmichael Traditionally there has been two communities in America; the white community and the black community.

I think we still face similar problems. Communities in this country today are facing the same problems. Schools are being closed in certain areas due to whatever reason but one thing seems to be consistent, which is the ethnicity of those who reside in that area.
