Race, Politics and National Structures
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper discussing the origins of racism and its effects in politics. Despite federal laws disallowing it, the realities of today’s living arrangements is that, in cities, Blacks and whites still are separated by political boundaries, as surely as they were separated in the years surrounding the Civil War. The overrepresentation of Black individuals in the inner city is no accident. Neither was it by design, but the effects are the same as if it had been. Political systems help to marginalize African Americans, and then work to preserve the status quo they have created. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Racial and Cultural Bias in IQ Testing
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the layers of bias contained in the development of IQ tests. It was nearly a half century ago that professionals began questioning the reliability and validity of IQ tests that existed at the time and began to look more closely at the influences of environment and socioeconomic standing. Emphasis on multiculturalism further contributed to the realization that there was a strong possibility that IQ tests were not measuring what test developers – and those using the results – believed they were measuring. Though there still has been no great improvement in the tests’ abilities to overcome cultural and socioeconomic barriers, it appears that there is greater awareness of the inherent deficiencies of current testing methods.

Racial Structure in the Global Economy
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper using the insights of Nathan Huggins, Matthew Frye Jacobson, David Roediger, William Julius Wilson and Howard Winant to assess how still-emerging globalization of business may affect the preservation and development of racial inequalities already present in developed nations, particularly the United States. Certainly there is no overseeing committee intent on keeping people of color subordinate to white groups, whatever degree of “whiteness” those groups hold. The effects seen appear as that is the case, however. Without concerted attention to developing situations, it is likely that the racial balance and division of labor that existed in the past could become part of other countries’ histories, too.

Racism & Adolescent Development
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page research paper that examines the effects of racism on adolescents. Adolescence is a crucial period in the "physiological, emotional and cognitive development" of students (Jackson, 2005, p. 203). This is a "defining point" that directly influences both students' perceptions of their identity and their confidence in their ability (Jackson, 2005). Complicating adolescent developmental goals is the fact that racism continues to be a defining factor in American society, particularly in regards to the development of African American adolescents. The effects of racism are manifested in complex, often intertwining, repercussions (Banks, et al, 2001). This examination of literature indicates some of the cognitive, physical and social/psychological effects that racism has on minority adolescents. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Raymond Carver's "Call Me If You Need Me": Why People Act The Way They Do
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Because socialization sets the groundwork for appropriate social behavior, its existence is critical for a person's overall development. Without such, people would not be able to function in or participate with the rest of society. By passing down these socializing attributes from generation to generation, it ensures the continuation of a civilized society, which is obtained on a daily basis through family, school and peer groups. Raymond Carver's "Call Me If You Need Me" addresses these cultural characteristics as they relate to human behavior; by associating works of Sigmund Freud, one can readily surmise the relationship that exists between Carver's story and basic human interaction.
