Being different is something that people in society do not understand, and it frightens them. Society has standards and expects something out of us all. Racism is one of the main argued topics about “being different”. Racism has been something that goes way back, and has been the reason for many laws. From the slave days, the KKK, Martin Luther King, all the way up to today, racism unfortunately still exists today. Although there have been laws made, bringing about an impact, it still continues. We now have a black president which is a big step towards ending racism and shows that not the entire country is still racist. From (1800-1900’s) racism was at its worst.

However “Black Lives Matter” is not declared as a hate group, most people would disagree. If “BML” actually cared about black lives instead of their agenda, to just commit crimes and kill white cops, they would have marched right to Chicago where twice as many black people have been murdered due to black on black crime this year then have been killed by police nation wide. Statistically, more white lives have been taken by police than black lives. Most of the lives taken from blacks were from the doing of other blacks. Since most of those Chicago murders were at the hands of other black people, we must assume that it 's not a problem in their eyes.
