Racial Relations

What kind of impact might they have on the communities in which they took place?  What impact might they have on whites? on African Americans?
MSU Rocked by Racial Intimidation
1. Because of the unwelcoming  community, the intimidation only continued which seemed odd considering it had gained so much support to stop it. What's even worse, is prejudice and this kind of hatred didn't seem to be around as much anymore. It's cruel and it makes people, of all races, realize that racism hasn't died down.
2. It might make white people feel responsible for this happening, even if they had taken no part in it. It's concerning to think that people who are similar to you in one way are the complete opposite in another, and yet both can still be identified as the same. Which is why...
3. ...black people are probably scared of integrating with whites, because they might end up being stabbed in the back. By continuously being victims of hatred, they get tired of it and want to prevent it from happening in the future. The hope for a miracle or equality may not even be prevelant anymore because it seems too far out of reach. These kinds of issues only bring further attention to an issue that shouldn't even be one.
