Here is my 1st answer to question #2 from the beginning of the semester

Black is related to something or anything that is dark and unwanted. It is the color of depression and disappointment. Being black in America translates to having the black color, being uneducated and always causing troubles. Being black means not enjoying all the human rights as well as not being heard for social justice (Messner 1970). It translates to having no voice to one’s freedoms and rights; your rights can be violated by any white, so long as you are of the black race.

 Americans will have to complain about social injustice, but then a black complaining of how injustice is for the police to brutality kill unarmed black men is senseless (Touré 2011). Being Black is being judged even before opening your mouth; it is knowing people around you already know you even when you haven’t introduced yourself.

In America, blacks are viewed as slaves. They are expected to work hard, produce much but sleep for fewer hours since their color and body is well positioned to working as compared to that of Americans. Most of the companies would employ black people in contracts just not because they cannot perform but to limit the competition for promotions and wage increase requests. It hurts when a black person has to work four times harder than the white in order to prove how intelligent and capable they are just like the whites. Thomas Jefferson in 1990 argued that the difference between the blacks and whites was that blacks required less sleep after a day of hard work and had a low capacity for reasoning, unlike the whites.
