racism in america

       Racism is embedded in the roots of the United States of America , it has been a predominate theme through out Americas history and contiues to play a vitual role in present time . The classic american dream which falsely portrays America as a land of dreams where ones background , race , national origin etc play no roles in determining the outcome of ones life or place in society an , absurd notion that people can just  pick themselves upon by their boot strings and achieve whatever in regardless of race  gender sexual orientation etc  . Another , being that people  have equal opportunity , everyone has a shot at reaching his or her true potential .

But the truth is that there exists a class nature of society in America . One that is decades old , where ones race dictated there placement in the society iregardless of your education potential and how hard you work as opportuities are with held from you

                                    

Common myths about the United States of America , myths which i myself once believed  , such as that the united states of America is a middle class nation , the United States of America is a classless society , citizens of the United States are all getting richer Imply that everyone has equal opportunity to succeed but the recent media attention on the extent of police brutality largely due to social media has open old wounds as this has been going on for years but the advancement of camera phones have only just propelled this problem to the front pages

Groups such as the black lives matter movement have played a vitual role is making sure that the names of the victims have not been forgotten
