Logan Smith Argumentative Essay
On August 11, Logan Smith, a North Carolina man, was shaming and naming people on twitter. The people who he called out were in the Charlottesville white supremacy march. According to Smith, he believes that if racist people are no longer going to hide their identities, then they should be known to the public for who they are.

Although some people like how Smith is acting, he has been receiving a lot of death threats for him and his family. All because of him exposing the names of some people who were in the march. Although he knows some people can file a lawsuit against him, he will deny charges because he insists that he confirms their identity before posting the pictures online. But Smith is not the only person who has been receiving

    Summary Of Nicholas Kristof's Saudis In Bikinis

    I can relate to this like when we go to Colorado there are store clerks that follow black people to make Shure they are not going to steal anything. Even though most black people are foolish doesn’t mean all black people are that way. I think just because someone is a different color or looks like a criminal doesn’t mean that they are; or even if they were they want or they have changed, and we should give them a second chance. In this story it gives examples like when he is going back late at night to return a deadline story he was mistaken as a burglar. Why would they mistake him as a burglar the only reason, why is because he is black and people think that black people are out to steal and hurt people. I thought that Saudis In Bikinis was a well written news report. I think that Saudi women should be able to choose whether they must where insane things like full body curtains. But that is their way of life, we should not be able to mess with their core beliefs especially just because they are not moving as fast as we would like. I learned that sometimes people are fine doing what they do even if it is not ok with…

    Westboro Baptist Church Analysis

    In efforts to expires the disapproval of the Westboro Baptist Church other groups have met in areas where the church was picketing and turned away from churches protesters. Perhaps one of the most famous counter protests happened after the September 11 attacks. One young man Jared Dailey , stood across from the group and held a sign that displayed, “NOT today Fred.” Two days later the number shifted from 1 to 86 people standing across from the group. In future protest against the group the slogan that began Dailey used has been popular in use. As a means to counter the Westboro Baptist church organizations such as, The Boston Center for the Arts and an ad-hoc group in Richmond countered the protest by doing pledges and then donating the money to LGBT (Lesbian, Bisexual, and Trans-gender) organizational projects. Others have arranged protest and hackers have been known to hack the Westboro batiste Church websites and disable them from the internet. There have been violent actions also against the group. There have been recorded incidents of angry mob attempting to attack the group, a fire near their meeting lace estimated at $10,000 in damage, and also Army Veteran Ryan Newell was arrested with ammo and an attempt on an attack of the group. For the most part the general public objects to the Westboro Baptist Church and their…

    Trayvon Martin Case

    In response to the recent event, Florida's Frederica Wilson displayed her displeasure during a Congress session in witnessing the youth of her community have their lives ended due to baseless fear. She delivered a speech on behalf of him and other young black males. "I encourage the citizens of Florida and the citizens from around the world to continue to fight for justice for Trayvon Martin. Justice must be served: No more racial profiling. I'm tired of fighting when the evidence is so clear, so transparent..." As the case gradually progresses, more information was released about previous reports George Zimmerman provided. Though new evidence has been released, it was unacceptable for the press and media to openly comment on what was currently going on. The Stanford Police Department were leaking insignificant information of Trayvon Martin, butchering what was left of him now. "They've killed my son... and now they're trying to kill his…

    Evil Everywhere: Poem Analysis

    As the mother said in the poem: “O, here’s the shoe my baby wore, But, baby, where are you?” (Randall 8). She had just told her daughter to go to a safe quiet place and that costed her life. After this news, there were all sorts of finger-pointing and negativity. Martin Luther King stated to the governor at the time, George Wallace, “The blood of four little children ... is on your hands,” (Graham). This bombing sparked a racial division that still flows into today. When the news of the Charleston shooting broke, it had people relate right back to the bombing in 1963. This had déjà-vu written all over. Everything from the motive, to the outcome had similarities. Society is so scared to call the shooters motive by how it is; they try to cover up the fact that he was racist. They try to create confusion so there is not uproar of racism because of…

    Hate Speech And The Costs Of Keeping Quiet By Turkle

    Greg Lukianoff an attorney, graduate student from Stanford Law School and author of, “Twitter, Hate Speech and The Costs of Keeping Quiet.” Where Lukianoff argues against hate speech being removed from social media since the First Amendment says freedom of speech. Therefore, he writes, “‘Hate speech’ is constitutionally protected in the United Sates. But the push against ‘hurtful’ and ‘blasphemous’ speech (primarily speech offensive to Islam) is gaining ground throughout the world” (388). Lukianoff claims humans need to hear these hateful comments because it keeps them aware of the hate around the world. Of course, it is important to stay aware of hate and true it does not disappear when social media removes it. Nevertheless, the goal is to eliminate the hate but, hate does not stop if the toxic people are not punished as result, of this toxic people stay ignorant to the harm they are causing and it is an endless cycle. Social media also makes it harder to fix the toxic environment because it keeps humans…

    Million Hoodie March: Social Media Analysis

    portrayed as being a criminal while others can. This led to outraged and it led to the “Million Hoodie March” where people wore hoods to act in solidarity (Rowley 2012: 521). In addition to this, Rowley also brought up the question on why had there been such work to make Trayvon look so innocent on the news. For example, when the media showed photos of him, he was depicted as extremely innocent because it was a photo of him at a younger age and the repetition of how he was holding skittles and iced tea further emphasize his innocence (Rowley 2012: 521-522). However, the network allows individuals to search up pictures of how Trayvon really looks like, such as being in a hoodie, wife-beaters and other photos that showed his true side as well. Therefore, although media chooses to…

    The Pros And Cons Of Peaceful Protests

    “The Black Lives Matter protest began after police has shot quite a few unarmed African- American people. It trended on social media and had remained civil until a protester shot and killed five off- duty police officers. The shooter also injured several more police officers. This started a chain reaction of crimes all over the United States.”(Nmrussell2) When protesters create chaos and crime for the city they are protesting in, the protest loses all credibility. Social media also affects the way the public sees the actual crime taking place. It puts the idea of what the protest is about in the eyes of the people, but not all facts of the case. The small details of the case that are missing could change the minds of several…

    White Supremacy

    In the aftermath of the election victory of Barack Obama, white supremacists rushed to online discussion forums to vent anger and disbelief that voters had chosen an African-American candidate as the next president of the United States. The Anti-Defamation League, which monitors and exposes extremist activity and rhetoric, said anger among white supremacists and other right-wing extremists in response to Obama's victory, resulted in an avalanche of vitriolic ranting postings on racist Web sites. At one point, the chatter so overloaded the server of the most popular white supremacist internet forum, Stormfront, which was temporarily shutdown.…

    Spread Of Islam Persuasive Speech

    Milo went on a national tour spreading his hateful ideas and, like what will happen on May 1st, will be subject to a passionate protest by those of the respective college community. However Milo, just like Robert Spencer, continued to spread his ideas across America misrepresenting the people of Islam. A common reason that he was able to do this is due to the fact that the opposing community on the respective campus only protested outside of the event and refused to participate in the Q&A sessions that he provided. It turned his events into a circle jerk of hateful ideas driven by a complete lack of understanding for the religion of Islam. Unfortunately, I predict the same result will happening on May 1st, with Robert Spencer spreading his hateful and xenophobic ideas without anyone who is knowledgeable and much more understanding of the religion of Islam (well more than I will ever get to considering I'm a Christian) rebutting his ideas. I want to pass this idea on to you because I will not let my college community become a breathing ground for the birth of hateful ideologies that target a large group of people around the world that I truly believe are the opposite of what people like Robert Spencer and Milo Yiannopoulos spew throughout…
