Discrimination in society

Summary

"People of color must endure racial discrimination even as others may be blind to it. There is a lot of statistical data showing American institutions treat citizens very differently based on race. Many individuals believe this widespread racial discrimination occurs in numerous ways, from racial profiling and police brutality against black citizens to public examples of racism against people of color.Yet the prevalence of racial discrimination is a controversial issue, with Americans having opinions that often differ based on their race."--Provided by publisher
