Also, it was due to the migration of the blacks from the South to North after the liberation of the slaves that racism became common in the north as well as there were many black slave holders, particularly in the southern regions of Louisiana (Dutch, 2005). He further commented that being in those some parts of the primary society at hand lag behind in economic terms, they took out their anger on the small segments of society that just moved in and became middlemen by buying and selling goods and become successful.
He further noted on the history of slavery, which according to him was the Western civilization itself that took a stand against slavery around the world, and spent enormous amount of time and effort in order to impel this ideology to free slaves from South America into Africa and throughout the world. In his book he specifically noted that the Britain was the primary force behind this movement.
Furthermore, he highlighted the fact that America was the only country that used the issue of black/white-slavery as a political based on race. However, slavery was never controlled to one race in other countries as well (Amazaon). For example, the Arabs incarcerated Europeans, while Asians imprisoned other Asians. All this is still happening in some parts of Africa.

In addition, they were often enslaved by fellow blacks, capitalizing on the white man's desires, and so, another misconception about slavery is demolished, races did not band together; they worked against each other when enslaving their neighbors. Slavery ended due to several instances, such as nations becoming larger and larger, taking over more territory, and thus reducing the areas available for slave capture. These areas tended to be small and
R's of American Racism: Representation, Rejection, and Realization Racism is a system of meaning that promotes and legitimated the domination of one racially defined group over another. Racism assigns values to both real and imagined cultural and physical differences, benefitting the dominant party and making negative claims about the subordinate, so that this dominance may be justified ideologically. The seeming illogical or even counterproductive nature of racism may be explained in
Sixties Sit-Ins -- 23:12, 15-16 All of the assigned sources seem to have as their major emphasis a support and acceptance of what the sit-ins were meant to accomplish. The writers seem sympathetic to the cause of Civil Rights. However they all seem to frame their subjects in language that misses the real point of any Civil Rights Movement in any era, any country; they also all seem to miss one

By almost all accounts, red states are poorer economically, have much poorer health and educational outcomes, and a lower quality of life overall than blue states.
