Hey, your article was well laid out and an interesting read. You may want to add a bit more detail and information regarding the specific laws and legal consequences of racial profiling. Check out these links: http://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/RL31130.pdf http://www.readperiodicals.com/201110/2727872991.html --Skes7272 (talk) 23:54, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

This journal article explains why racial profiling is difficult, and argues that it is expressive, you may find this interesting. http://search.proquest.com.uproxy.library.dc-uoit.ca/docview/210985131?accountid=14694

On another note, I would suggest reading this book if you haven't already for your classes. The book sheds a lot of light on policing tactics, reasoning, and training. There's a relatively large component on racial profiling, and discipline within police agencies.

Here are a few things that can be added to the topic:

Racial profiling has become a serious issue today where the police are targeting the black community because of their race. There have become more police presence in the black communities which has led to higher number of African-Americans being put in jails. Racial profiling has led to a significant high number of black males being in the prison system in the U.S. There should be changes made which will create more justice for the black people in our communities. Moreover, there have been many cases in the past few weeks involving police shooting of black males.

Here are a few articles which would show how police are racially profiling and taking lives of black males :

This is a very interesting and informative topic, and it's important to inform others of racial profiling - especially when it has been all over the news lately. I found a links on racial profiling in Toronto that might broaden the topic of racial profiling:

To expand on racial profiling on it's own, here are a few articles to read: Human Right Commission: http://www.ohrc.on.ca/en/paying-price-human-cost-racial-profiling/existence-racial-profiling "The Toronto's Police's Long History of Racial Profiling" http://www.vice.com/en_ca/read/the-toronto-polices-carding-practices --MadelaineSouthwell (talk) 16:51, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Very informative article, here's a website in regard to the effects of racial profiling.http://www.ohrc.on.ca/en/paying-price-human-cost-racial-profiling/effects-racial-profiling--Sgobeshia (talk) 16:54, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Your topic is good, and decently written. You might want to try talking about the sociological aspect, and how ethnocentrism can be a factor; here is an article on the sociological perspectives on race and ethnicity; https://www.inkling.com/read/sociology-richard-schaefer-9th/chapter-10/ch10-section-3 and one on ethnocentrism; file:///C:/Users/Vanessa/Downloads/Hall_columbia_0054D_10802.pdf --VnessElizHart (talk) 16:56, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

This topic is a very serious topic, thus your article was very informative and I believe with your information and an expansion of more information this will truly help individuals understand the importance of this topic. Here are two sources to help expand more information to your article http://www.ohrc.on.ca/en/what-racial-profiling-fact-sheet and http://www.vice.com/en_ca/read/the-toronto-polices-carding-practices--Rabirami (talk) 21:39, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

I think that when explaining sensitive topics such as this that it is crucial for one to be as precise as possible when suggesting any opinion or observation of a given situation. I immediately got the impression that the only racial profiling to be spoken of was subject to the specific "black male", and not various other forms and victims of such circumstances. Indeed, in certain societies it is evident that the "black male" is profiled due to erroneous deviations of idealized standardizations, however, for a Wikipedia article I think that it is appropriate to be more specific and sensitive to the preciseness of your title if only referring to one ethnicity, due to the fact that such a topic is in reality a much larger area of focus. Additionally, when uttering phrases or perspectives that are not objectively known, such as the presumption that black males are profiled due to their differences of speech, while conversely, this statement is a stereotype given the understanding that not all "black males" speak the same, different ethnic males speak in slang too, and such generalized behaviors are not specific to a particular ethnicity but rather a cultural atmosphere. Below are some websites to perhaps enlarge this important understanding in the academic world(emphasis on first website) http://roderic.uv.es/bitstream/handle/10550/30033/99.pdf?sequence=1 http://www.ohrc.on.ca/en/learning/what-discrimination/racial-profiling — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamtomlinson324 (talk • contribs) 23:50, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello, this article is very informative. I would like to have seen a commentary on how black males behave as a result of being constantly racially profiled. This article could help

Hello!

I think your topic is great but I too would have liked to see more about black males and how they are viewed in the work force and expectations society has on them to conform to the general population of Caucasians; How does this effect their work performance, does racial profiling effect the way they communicate with other cultures, does it minimize or highten their respect for others. This article talks about whether racial profiling is a good or bad thing in Toronto and other cities. It also includes results from conducted surveys in support of their information. http://canada.metropolis.net/pdfs/WortleyTanner_e.pdf — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beauty4ashes7 (talk • contribs) 22:00, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
