PLN 6 S2

Today I read an article called "Schoolboys Face Court in Racial Taunting" by Myung Oak Kim. This article talked about how a minority was taunted and followed by three boys that continuously chanted "KKK". This suprised me because no one should be treated like this. Society has come to far and progressed to much to go back to this kind of treatment to other races. Though racism will always exsist, no one should be treated like this. Just because the boy was different doesn't mean he should be reminded of how African Americans were treated by saying "KKK". The KKK was a group of people who brutally murdered African Americans just for their beliefs and color of there skin. Even though this was long ago, it clearly still exsists in this society, when it shouldn't. We are all the same, and we should all be treated equally.
