Recommended: Brief history of racism in the united states

Donald Trump once said “I will build a great big wall on our Southern border, and I will have Mexico pay for it.” Most people see it racists because he is the one that wants to have it built, but he is making Mexico pay for it. It is pretty messed up for him to do that.Donald Trump dose say some hateful things about all mexicans just because they are coming into the U.S without papers, all they are coming for is a job to help keep for on the table and a roof over their heads.

  • Argumentative Essay On Cesar Chavez

    1314 Words  | 3 Pages

    Formally, an immigrant can be defined as “a person who comes to live permanently in a foreign country.” But in some cases, there has been people like Cesar Chavez who have made a difference in history as an immigrant. Unfortunately, there are those who are not as lucky as Cesar Chavez and end up getting deported just like what happened in Operation Wetback in 1942. Now, they have made a way for immigrants to become U.S. citizens by taking the citizenship test. However, Donald Trump is one of the many people attempting to keep immigrants as far away from the U.S. Border laws are also another one of the many reasons why not many immigrants get the chance to enter this country because in many ways the laws that surround the border are in some ways unfair and not really the best. Immigration still remains a problem in our country

    Across the nation, millions of Americans of all races turn on the television or open a newspaper and are bombarded with images of well dressed, articulate, attractive black people advertising different products and representing respected companies. The population of black professionals in all arenas of work has risen to the point where seeing a black physician, attorney, or a college professor are becoming more a common sight. More and more black people are holding positions of respect and authority throughout America today, such as Barack Obama, Colin Powell, Condelezza Rice and many other prominent black executives. As a result of their apparent success, these black people are seen as role models for many Americans, despite their race. However, these groups of black people are exceptions to the rule and consist of only a tiny fraction of all black Americans. These black people in turn actually help to reinforce the inequality of black Americans by allowing Americans of other races to focus on their success. A common thought is, "They made it, why can't you do the same?" The direct and truthful answer to that question is Racism.

    “…Everybody jumped on him, and beat him senseless… Everybody was hitting him or kicking him. One guy was kicking at his spine. Another guy was hitting him on the side of his face… he was unconscious. He was bleeding. Everybody had blood on their forearms. We ran back up the hill laughing… He should have died… He lost so much blood he turned white. He got what he deserved…” (Ridgeway 167). The skinheads who were beating this man up had no reason to do so except for the fact that he was Mexican. Racism in this day and age is still as big of a problem as it was in the past, and as long as hate groups are still around to promote violence, society is never going to grow to love one another.

Donald Trump has clearly not thought about how this can have a significant impact on our country economically, and how it can affect families and communities. Everyone should be treated equally and not be differentiated because of their status. Undocumented immigrants want a better life for them and their families; why can’t they just receive the U.S. citizenship opportunity?

Many whom were living in the new seized land of the U.S. were offered legal citizenship as an agreement to ending the war. However granted legal citizenship for the Mexican Americans would not mean that they gained equal treatment. The problem with the racial caste system was that Mexican American was mixed with Spanish and Indian ancestry and did not fit with the white and black racial categories.

  • Trump: Hate Crimes In The United States

    Trump caused all of this, he is to blame. Reporters of these cases came to conclusions; "It became so clear — at least in many people's minds — that the Trump presidency represented a kind of white nationalism, and we saw people who have white nationalist ideas or tendencies just go crazy," (Jaeger). It is clear that since the number of hate crimes went up directly after the election, that it was caused by Trump winning. Since Trump made the idea of a “white nationalism” (Jaeger), than in return, people against that or for it, will want to expose as much of their opinion as possible. Trump is an unqualified candidate, who encourages the disgraceful behavior of his followers. He caused a lot of commotion within the U.S, and in some cases it
