Black Americans Persuasive Speech
Bottom line is that black people today are still treated unfairly in this country. White privilege is a real treatment that is never going away. The president of the United States is a racist, he has no sympathy or respect for black people. When you can say that there were some “fine people” in the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, is a dead giveaway on where he stands. Reparations should be allocated to black people for what their ancestors had to go through. The economic growth that came from slavery in America is evident. My image represents the struggle that black people go through for over 400 years. You can see the pain through the children’s eyes and demeanor. Today you can find similar faces of distressed black

    For a nation to grow and come together there must be reparations in various form to correct these past injustices. He presents several types of reparations that could ease the white guilt, as well as acknowledging the effects of racism towards African Americans. One type of reparation he discusses is a financial one involving calculating the wag gape between white and black Americans, the difference would go to African Americans for perhaps ten years or so (Coates). A financial reparation not only recognizes the past of discrimination in the workforce that largely caused poverty in black communities but it would also aide poor black Americans that have suffered because of this discrimination. Another form is a bill that has been proposed in congress serval times called the HR 40, the Commission to Study Reparation Proposals for African Americans Act (Coates).…

    The first thing that you are going to want to do is stay undetected. Wearing flashy clothes and shoes is going to blow your cover, so i would stick to some moderate fashion. Get just about any backpack you want, just not too vibrant. Black would be an ideal color of choice. Try to keep your hair at a normal length, not to long and certainly no crazy colors! While in class don’t be that student who constantly calls out, and be sure to always raise your hand, never blurt out an answer. On the other hand you don’t want to be the kid who says absolutely nothing. Be a little social during class and be sure to raise your hand and share your ideas. Being a teacher’s pet will not get you very far socially. It won’t benefit you to talk smack about the…

    I want to know why are there racists in this world. I especially want to know why is it 2016 and we still have race issues going on in this country. Over the past year we have seen many shooting of African Americans. It is statistically proven that African American men are more vulnerable to get treated poorly for the same crime that a white man would do. I’m not saying that the shooting was all because of race. It’s just the fact of black people are racially profiled for no reason. I don’t think it is fair that I have to be at a disadvantage and would be profiled by certain people because of my skin color instead of my…

    I hope this email finds you well. We met several years ago when we were both students at UT (I enrolled in 1998), and a year or two ago with Elizabeth Morgan as were crossed paths walking across campus. I am reaching out today because the Office of Admissions is unveiling new efforts to recruit Black students and I'm hoping you are available to assist with one of those efforts. Specifically, are you available to present a 1 hour mock lecture from 12-1pm on June 16 and/or 17 to 80 Black families of rising seniors (40 families per night)?…

    It is an acknowledgment that one million Black people are locked in cages in this country and that Black women continue to bear the burden of a relentless assault on our children and our families. #BlackLivesMatter doesn’t mean your life isn’t important it means that Black lives, which are seen as without value within White supremacy, are important to your liberation. Given the disproportionate impact state violence has on Black lives, we understand that when Black people in this country get free, the benefits will be wide-reaching and transformative for society as a…

    “Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” George Santayana.(Brainy Quote) This means, regarding this research, that if African Americans do not remember the past, past achievements and accomplishments, past trials and tribulations, then history is bound to repeat itself. The purpose of this research is to persuade the audience that an African American studies class should be required by all states for high school students to graduate. African Americans are at a disadvantage in terms of education, because the school system does not require those students to be enrolled in an African-American studies course to graduate high school. Therefore those students are forced to learn about "white" America and know little about "black" America.…

    Good afternoon Mr.Teo and judges. Today, i would like to talk about why racial profiling should be used by submitting a statistical case to prove that it should not be too quickly dismissed. Allow me to start with a question: “If a witness to a crime gave a policeman a description of a robber, the policeman would be doing a good job if he looked for suspects that matched the description. Why does the same not apply to other instances?” Racial profiling is based on reasoned assumptions that it is a certain group of people who are most likely to be the cause of a certain crime committed, and is therefore reasonable to be acted out. My first point is, just because this form of profiling involves races and ethnic groups should not mean that it…

    America is most known to be the “nation of immigrant.” The nation that accepts foreigners and helps them pursue an American Dream. It helps you all together make someone out of yourself by providing opportunities to make that dream a reality. Although this may be true, the nation that gives you a label a label that makes you feel completely uncomfortable. Imagine you being called “illegal” out loud, and people just stare at you, how uncomfortable you would feel; every time you here the word illegal. Today, I will be talking about how The Library of Congress will no longer use the term “illegal” or “alien” to describe an undocumented immigrant.…

    Funny story actually, “I was gonna clean my room, but then I got high, I was gonna find the broom, but then I got high, my room is still messed up and I know why, ‘cause I got high, ‘cause I got high, ‘cause I got high” (Afroman). This popular hit called “Because I got high” by a guy named Afroman is what kids are listening to these days. I agree with grandparents when they say, “That’s music?!” Rap music needs to be banned due to its foul language, its bad influences, and its shady message.…

    In all of humanity, there was one thing that was always in our lives no matter how much we tried to get rid of it--racism. Racism is a giant problem in the world and it is still lurking today, as discussed in the articles “Is Everyone A Little Bit Racist?” by Nicholas Kristof and “Black Men and Public Spaces” by Brent Staples. Racism is everywhere and in everyone, as anybody can be racist, all races are stereotyped, some worse than others, and most discriminate without even knowing it. Fortunately there are solutions to the worldwide situation but some do believe in racial inequality and that it is alright to put others below them. With racism, we have taken it to the worse level, making it part of people's everyday lives, both whites and blacks.…

    For centuries a disease has plagued our nation just like AIDS has Africa, I bet you all are wondering what this disease is. You probably think that it can be treated with limited breakouts every few years. The virus I'm talking about is racism. Imagine living every day in fear knowing that where ever you go, everything you do is being observed and judged. Imagine walking into a store or a boutique and having someone watch every move of yours thinking that you’re going to steal something, or expose a bomb from under your clothes. Imagine being mocked and hated at school because you're "different". Imagine being left out because of your skin colour. No one enjoys being left out, but then, why do people judge? Why do people set a fire of hatred? Why do people discriminate? Why?…
