2,400 words (approx. 9.6 pages) | 8 sources | 2002 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper will discuss the way that society imprisons black men by the cultural stereotypes that are placed on them for the acts they do. By understanding the social class warfare that is being made into an excuse to use the black man as a scapegoat into drug addiction and dealing, we can see why the system focuses on making these men the victims of a lower class problem that is being waged against them. The class ramifications, and the psychological premise of their conditioning are readily a certain way that they both find themselves in prison, as well are taught certain traits by white society that deem them in this way.
