Racism
            
             Everywhere you go, everywhere you look, there is always somebody different.
            
             The American society focuses on that person, or group of people. They made them feel
            
             worthless and they treated them like animals.
            
             Imagine walking down the street and having people stare at you or call you
            
             names, or talk behind your back. Imagine not knowing the time because nobody will tell
            
             you. Why won’t they tell you the time, or spare you some change? Because your black.

             KKK hooded members by them. To top it off, Carver’s lawn was on the Atlantic
            
             highway, the main way through the capital. I strongly agree with Valerie Joseph when
            
             she says that she "wanted to believe that people actually cared, she wanted to believe that
