The essay is an argument on the injustice of racial profiling. Racial profiling is the practice of law enforcement officers in stopping an individual of a certain race or ethnicity and investigating them based on their ethnicity. Such practices may occur in traffic routines, guns or drugs (African Americans), illegal immigration (Hispanics or Latinos), or in matters connected with security (Muslims and Arabs). Racial profiling was authorized in 2001 with the Bureau of Justice Assistance, a division of the Office of Justice Programs, United States Department of Justice, establishing the web-based Racial Profiling Data Collection Resource Center. The website was designed to train police officials in the ropes and tactics of racial profiling and also served as clearing house for police agencies, legislators, community leaders, social scientists, legal researchers, and journalists all of which can be used to collect and formulate racial profiling analyses (*The Institute on Race and Justice at Northeastern University. (2011).). In 2003, however, the Department of Justice issued its Guidance Regarding the Use of Race by Federal Law Enforcement Agencies forbidding the practice of racial profiling by federal law enforcement officials (*Amnesty International USA.(2007)
