class room interview

Our class room interview topic for the day was the question "is the justice system fair to all groups in America?" This topic has been floating a lot recently from the Ferguson case to the Eric garner case. When I asked my class mate how she feels about this subject they stated that they do indeed believe the justice system is bias to certain race groups. She talked about general aspects that happens within the police. For instance, Hispanics and blacks seem to get pulled over by police a lot more than whites do. on the other hand She also mentioned that media plays an important role on identifying this crisis to build a "better story" for the public to talk about. Its very rare to see or hear about a black cop killing a white kid and getting off from murder but that does not mean that never happened before. There is definite controversy but this reaction between cop vs blacks has been going on for decades and its hard to say if things are changing. I personally feel that the system is unfair to certain groups personally because I experienced it personally as being a black man. I feel like the police stereotypes before we do anything and that the pigment of our skin does matter.
