Memorial, and not even to a nation struggling with the perils of racism and equality, but to generations of people who share in a dream and strive for freedom; a dream that many still dream today. Even though we are closer now than at any point in history, we have yet to experience the freedom of which Dr. King dreamed. Racism is not a problem only in America, most every nation deals with racial issues on some level. Though none of us could ever forget the tragedy of the Holocaust, we tend to forget

costarring and directed by the American iconic tough guy, Clint Eastwood. The reason the film has been selected to do the report on was, I had the movie at home. Clint Eastwood’s performance as the character Walt Kowalski demonstrated a prime example of the socioeconomic conditioned stereotype, produced as a result of the World War Two social conditioning.

concerns we have today. Innocent victims are targeted by police physically and violently. The government has taken action on this issue with a positive impact. However the statistic is rising yearly in a negative way. Race plays a key factors, black people are more targeted than other races.
