What is Racism
Racism or race at that matter may be one the hardest definitions to define because of there use in everyday society. In that respect race cannot simply be defined as a single definition, since race or racism have many factor that lead to a different definition. Though when racism is considered you must remember the many movements which happening all around the world just because of race. The United States has a lot history relating to race and may be one most notorious countries in world when it comes down to race, but of-course not present day America rather the past specifically the 1950s as related to American Civil Rights. Racism in partial created by stereotypical norms of a single group that then becomes an expression of the entire group. Racism is simply a dislike or fear of another group because of their skin colour in most occasions. Race is very simply described as persons skin colour. The African American society was more or less under the influence of the white American society by the means of control. The African American population in American be began as slaves who were owned by white slave owners, thus racism was used to keep everyone alert and segregate one group from another.

Segregation
Segregation was used as deterrent in the United States to control the other group as if they were a lower class or use them for work. Segregation is simply the separation of groups. The most powerful group creates and segregates the other groups and subjects them to undeveloped areas such as ghettos. The white class in America took control of the African American class which latter led to anger and aggression with each coming day. Segregation created the building building blocks for the Civil Rights Movement. Segregation can occur through race, sex, language, complexion, country of origin, eye colour, and many more. Despite their status as second-class citizens often occupying segregated ghettos away from the American mainstream, the struggles of Black people have been remarkably central to the story of American democracy, and will continue to be central to the task of completing the great American Revolution.
