It is clear that hate crimes tend to be directed at minority groups in society. A selected example under discussion here is going to be racism. Also the way the Courts acknowledge and treat these hate crimes…

Ladson-Billings writes that culturally relevant teaching is much more in depth than just adapting school culture to the culture of the students. In reality, it can also be used to help the students understand their own culture and to help them interpret and conceptualize knowledge (Ladson-Billings, 1992). For this to work and be effective, minority cultures must be acknowledged as a vital strength and asset instead of just adapting the white Caucasian to fit the needs of all minorities…

Canadian citizens see countless cultures and ethnicities around them no matter where they live. The country is so rich in culture it is a wonder why native-born white Canadians are continuing to keep such negative thoughts hidden, only to come out when they have the power to accept or turn away a visible minority. Research by Esses et al. (2007) has shown that White Canadians are often uncomfortable around visible minorities and would rather be around people of their own ethnic group. This is…

More so, the authors have seen a reduction in students of African descent with Intellectual Disabilities (ID). This is not surprising, as diagnosis of ID in students with African descent cannot occur. The reduction comes from the lack of ability to label students rather than the diagnosis being more culturally…

not represented by most school curriculums, and this needs to change. If diverse perspectives are included, it would benefit all students, non-minorities and minorities alike. It is the school's responsibility to seek out these perspectives, not the students. If diverse perspectives are included in the curriculum, it would have many benefits to students. Diverse perspectives could include thoughts from non-white,…

Current Issues: Civil Liberties defines hate speech as speech that degrades “a person’s ethnicity, language, religion, political views, or socioeconomic class” (Roleff, p.). Jeremy Waldron, a professor at New York University, wrote his book, The Harm in Hate Speech, on the thesis that hate speech “undermines the equal dignity of individual members of vulnerable minorities.” Any “well-ordered society,” according to Waldron, should restrict hate speech. He uses two examples to demonstrate the…
