Description
We are discussing the issues of justice, discrimination, civil rights, feminism, etc.
I want you to interview 3 people, preferably of various ages and ethnic groups. Pose the same 5 questions to them regarding the pre-mentioned topics. Some possible questions may be: Do you believe racial equality exists in our country? Have you recently been discriminated against? How would you feel about your son/daughter dating our marrying someone from another racial group? Do you believe that women are treated equal to men in our society? Do you agree that gay men or women should be allowed to marry and be given full civil rights under the marriage law ? These are some possible questions; I'd like you to include others that you pose.
Write a paper (4-5 pages, double-spaced) summarizing the answers. Give details about the people interviewed, i.e., single, white male, 24 years old; married, black female, 40 years old, etc. Do not use their real first names. After you've summarized the responses give your own comments and observations. Did you think any of the comments could be perceived as judgmental, prejudice or racist, why? Were the people reluctant to answer the question? etc. Okay ?
People may be reluctant to give specific answers to your questions. Try to persuade them to give answers beyond a “Yes” or “No.” Tell them that their real names will not be used. They could be assured of that.
I hope that you will have an interesting and fun time with this assignment.

Discuss: Justice, Civil rights, Discrimination and Feminism
Gordon is a twenty four-year-old, single, white male. He believes that racial equality
exists and thrives in our country. Juxtaposing the current state of coexistence of races with that
during the era of segregation, which he did not interact with but read about, he explains that the
history of blacks has seen much worse segregation and that the current situation is very much an
improvement. The integration of immigrants into American society has helped give blacks and
other races a sense of belonging and relative superiority.
If Gordon had a daughter or son, he would not be comfortable with either marrying from
another race, especially if it was from the black or Asian races.
Justice, in Gordon’s opinion, is given equally regardless of race or gender. If you break
the law it does not matter what race or gender you are, you will face the consequences. In the
rule of law, there is no specification for race or gender. The law is just the law. It demands
accountability from all those who are subject to it.
Gordon has not experienced any recent discrimination that he could recall.
“People love who they love. It shouldn’t matter whether they are of the same gender or
not.”
