Cornel West's "Race Matters": Xenophobia, Consumerism And Hedonism
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. In his book entitled "Race Matters," Cornel West claims that xenophobia, consumerism and hedonism are elements that serve to stifle any positive racial progress. The manner by which these three elements have a negative impact upon racial progress is, indeed, clear and can readily be witnessed in everyday society. Fear runs
rampant between and among racial communities, often for no other reason than ignorance of the truth, illustrating West's contention that xenophobia continues to play an integral role in racial segregation. Consumerism, ever since its appearance in the latter part of the nineteenth century, has cultivated myriad hateful qualities that have served humanity no good purpose; one of the most instrumental is that of racial partition. And while hedonism might appear to represent one of life's most beneficial aspects, it actually perpetuates the separation between and among races. No additional sources cited.

Criminal Sentencing: White Black and Mental
[ send me this paper ]
(8pp). What we will be looking at in this
discussion are basically two issues that have
somehow become enmeshed: According to Davis
(1998), more than 70 percent, of the imprisoned
population, are people of color. It is rarely
acknowledged, that the fastest growing group of
prisoners are black women, and that Native American
prisoners are the largest group per capita.
Approximately five million people - including those
on probation and parole -- are directly under the
surveillance of the criminal justice system. And
according to Ditton (1999) sixteen percent of those
incarcerated in state systems are mentally ill.
One of the questions that then arises from this
data is, are the white mentally ill sentenced to
incarceration at a different ratio than people of
color? Bibliography lists 8 sources.
