As I was working on my research paper, I came across an article about a young man who had been racially profiled. After being racially profiled at two different schools, his mother moved him to a historically black college. In class, we were shown an sample paper on students who go to a historically black college. Did going to a historically black college actually help him? Even though he is doing better, going to a historically black college is not always better. I know a young lady who is about to go to a historically black college, and when she went to preview it, she said that the girl treated her bad. She said the girls who were suppose to be her roommates turned on her and no longer wanted to be her roommates. Going to an all black college is not always the answer.

Racial profiling is something that has been going on in our world for years. Even though my paper was about black people being racially profiled, other minorities suffer with it as well. After 9/11, Arabs and Muslims were racially profiled. Even though some people could understand why, no one should be subject to racial profiling because of their skin color. In the article I was reading, this young man was racially profiled at two different schools before he went to his current university. Even though he is now at a historically black college, I do not see how that would help. I would think police officers were worse there because there is nothing but black people. Moving around will never solve the issue of racial profiling. Until America decides to really do something about it, racial profiling will continue to be an issue for America.
