With SB 1070 in full effect in Arizona, we can see now the real intent of how we are dealing with immigration, Racial Profiling. I honestly thought that America was moving away from this racial profiling of people but here i am completely sadden by the fact that we have not yet really moved forward. It is true that we have learn to accept most people who are our citizens in American, but towards our foreigners, particularly those of hispanic descent, we show extreme racism to. The only correlation i can think of that would resemble this new up rising of racism would be the pre 1960 where african americans were discriminated heavily. Yes, that might seem a little extreme or even farfetch if that, but it does seem like America is running into another relapse of its earlier dark history. It is sad that history is repetiting itself, but what even sadder is that its happening less than a generation, people who saw extreme racism in the 60's are seeing it again but to a different ethnic group. This law SB 1070 just shows how ignorant America is.
Please feel free to comment on this little excerpt of my thoughts and feelings.
