Do Americans Prefer White People to Black People in Business? ThinkProgress reveals a year-long research study that took place on the well-known, online marketplace, Craigslist. In the experiment, old IPods were put up for sale. The IPods were the same in a series of pictures, but the IPod was held by different people. In some of the postings the device was held by white hand, in others by white hands with various tattoos on the wrists, and in others by a black hand. The question that was asked

People in our society today still discriminate against one another because of what a person looks like, how they act, or how they are dressed. The main thing people discriminate against others now, is color. In society today, people are rude and disrespectful to one another because of the color of their skin.

In the article ‘Black People in a White People’s Country’ by Gary Nash, he explains how slavery gave Africans a low role in America’s society, and how because slavery was allowed in the New World, they were “Socially and legally defined as less than people...”.

The lives of black girls do matter and more people within our societies need to be aware and take a stance on how these girls are being treated on a daily basis.
