Article 2-Race and Discrimination

Reading this article I must admit I wasn't surprised. The world is still filled with hate and racism as well as discrimination that I found nothing suprising when I saw that people are more likely to stay away from neighborhoods that are largely populated with African American. Apparently according to the article many whites say usually areas populated with a lot of African Americans have poor schools, and higher crime rates now this can be true in most cases but not in all. The article had stated that many people just use the schools as an excuse not to move into those neighborhoods and I have to admit I agree! I don't think its only poor schools, and high crime rate that hold them back from living in those areas I think it just has to do with whites not wanting to intergrate with African Americans. This is just one of the many reasons why life chances plays a strong role in your life in allowing you to succeed, and better yourself something you cannot change such as race can play a big role in the opportunities you get in life.
