Abstract
This questions the stereotyping and hate crimes which are still prevalent amongst U.S. officials and citizens almost ten years after the World Trade Center attacks. The author argues that a major problem that existed and still exists regarding the Muslim Americans is America's lack of education and knowledge and high degree of misunderstanding regarding Arabs, Muslims and the distinction between the two. The paper also discusses several organizations aimed at countering these discriminatory sentiments (e.g. the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC), and the Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services (ACCESS)).

From the Paper
"Immediately after the September 11, 2001 attacks, the Arab-Americans and immigrants from the Arab or Muslim countries experienced an unprecedented backlash from stereotyping to actual hate crimes and a variety of civil liberties violations. The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) received a tremendous increase of discrimination complaints in the workplace, public accommodations, and at airports. In addition, the U.S. government instituted a number of their own discriminatory policies and administrative measures targeting Arab-American and South Asian communities. These policies included massive secret detentions, selective law enforcement through so-called "voluntary" interviews and deportation of Middle Eastern men, a proposal to fingerprint immigrants and visitors from certain Arab or Muslim countries, and singling out Middle Eastern men for heightened enforcement of minor immigration law violations.
"In addition, the government detained scores of immigrants of Arab or South Asian descent merely on the basis of their ethnicity. According to a report by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), around 75 men, largely of Arab and South Asian origin were rounded up immediately after the attacks and held in secret federal custody. The number of detainees continued to grow as the government continued to selectively target Middle Eastern men for questioning."

Part Two: Review of An Organizational Problem Based on Race/Color Employment Discrimination

From the Paper
"Law offers equal opportunity in employment to all the citizens worldwide with the aid of Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. This is done because the people of the world particularly those that constituted the under privileged lot felt a strong need to speak up their minds and raise their opinions against the discrimination that is prevalent in varied forms at different levels of the society. Thus in order to curb the problem of discrimination in the employment sector, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission abbreviated as EEOC came into existence under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and started functioning on July 2, 1965 (U.S. EEOC: An Overview, Office of Communications and Legislative Affairs, 1998). Thus, with the aid of the drafting and implementation of several anti-discriminatory laws, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission provides its citizens with the employment opportunity that strictly forbids discrimination at all grounds and on all basis and in any form."

Abstract
This paper discusses how America's working environment might be if the Civil Rights Act of 1964 had not been enacted. Title VII is one section of the Act that prohibits employers from discriminating on the basis of race, sex, color, religion, or national origin. This paper highlights the evolution of Title VII, its impact in the workplace, discusses who is covered and who is not, and examines what types of policies a company should implement to avoid violations of Title VII.

From the Paper
"This act protects all employees, regardless of classification or managerial level, in both the private and government sectors. In 1991, the act extended to all U.S. citizens employed by American employers outside the United States, except where it violated the law of the hosting country (Bennett-Alexander et al., 2003). In addition, it also protects foreign nationals employed within the United States and its protectorates. Unfortunately this act does not cover everyone. Employers with less than 15 employees are not require to follow the guidelines set by Title VII."

Abstract
This report identifies ways in which discrimination - both direct and indirect - can present itself in organizations. The current state of a large city-based retail organization shows that currently only 10% of the employees are male, compared with an industry average of 35%. Not only is this not consistent with the industry, but it also falls back on poor HR practices within the organization which could be viewed as discriminatory. The paper shows that good HR and anti-discriminatory practices begin at recruitment, and by improving the advertising, application, and interview process of recruitment we can minimize the chances of possible discrimination against an individual. According to the author, improving the company?s overall complaint and grievance handling procedures and ensuring employees are aware of anti-discrimination legislation and have sufficient supervision will ensure that there is no chance for legal action against the organization.

From the Paper
"Indirect discrimination can only occur if a person is required to meet an unreasonable criterion or condition. An example where the condition which must be met is reasonable is in the case of airline pilots - it is not unreasonable to state that the applicant must not be visually impaired, however it is unreasonable where previously applicants for the police force were required to meet a height requirement."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that Title IX attempts to resolve the gender issue in sports in high schools and colleges. The writer looks at how Title IX helps our schools and questions whether Title IX good or bad. The writer examines the ramifications and significance of Title IX in society. The writer argues that Title IX is an anti-discriminatory law that has given females infinitely more opportunities in education, personal development, and athletics, but it is certainly not flawless as it has greatly damaged many male athletic programs at colleges across the United States.

From the Paper
"Females passionate for sports simply would've had to limit their passion to games inside their backyard / neighborhood. Considering the many incredible female athletes today, there was probably a lot of talent gone to waste back then. But more importantly, it was unfair for females because males had many opportunities to get involved in athletics. In addition, even if a woman managed to beat the extraordinary odds and become a successful athlete, she would rarely ever be rewarded for her talent and dedication; though women worked and trained just as hard as male athletes, there were very few scholarships or educational opportunities for them (Eitzen). Male athletes, however, could be rewarded with a college education for their athletic ability. And female athletes couldn't simply because they were female.
"Not only did Title IX remediate the injustices mentioned above, but also its successful legislation resulted in so many benefits that never would have been imagined. First of all, Title IX fixed a major injustice by allowing exceptionally talented female athletes opportunity to earn scholarships for a college education, just like their male counterparts. "

Abstract
In this article the writer points out that when the anti-discriminatory legislative amendment known as Title XI was passed in 1972, many Americans laughed at the idea of women participating in competitive sports at all, much less female sports competing for an equal level of spectator attention and funding at institutions of higher learning. This paper looks at the legacy of Title XI, as today, powerful and positive images of female sports stars such as Venus Williams adorn the covers of magazines, and women everywhere run in marathons, take their daughters to soccer leagues or participate in such leagues themselves, and simply enjoy the delights of hard, physical competitive effort. The writer argues that Title IX must continue to mandate equal funding as without equal funding it will be too easy for colleges and high schools to go back to the old traditions of supporting male sports disproportionately, in comparison to supporting female activities.

From the Paper
"Encouraging women to participate in athletics is not merely an issue of equality in school, or about building champion athletes who can win college championships. It is also an issue of health. As America becomes increasingly concerned about the inactivity of its citizens, encouraging a group of people such as women who have been historically discouraged from being physically active is vital for the well-being of the entire nation. Also, when people compete in athletics, they experience a positive uplift in their sense of self-esteem as well as their physical prowess. Women must see other women, like themselves, participating in sports, rather than simply see images of themselves as spectators on the sidelines to gain this sense of positive esteem."
"Critics of Title XI argue that by requiring institutions of higher learning to provide equal funding and equal opportunities for men and women is not valid, because there is less public interest, amongst both men and women, in collegiate sports."

Abstract
The paper attempts to study the different forms of oppression, such as sexism, racism, classism, and nationalism, and presents a comparative analysis of these discriminatory and oppressive systems. It also attempts to study the interlocking and operation of the oppressive forces in societies and discusses the steps involved in the elimination of oppression.

From the Paper
"Before defining and differencing the different forms of oppression it would be worthwhile to understand clearly the concepts of discrimination and oppression. Discrimination relates to "a way of organizing relations between groups of humans which serves to keep one group economically and politically disadvantaged as compared with another," where as oppression implies ?any way in which humans as individuals or as groups, are treated with less than complete respect.? [McCullough, 1993:6] Discrimination is also understood as the process by which the members of a socially defined group are treated differently or rather unfairly because of their membership in the particular group."

Abstract
This paper explores the end of the Meiji period in Japan and the beginning of the country's modern period (1867-1912), which ultimately led to Japanese seeking their fortunes in the West, especially the United States. It traces the history of these immigrants, their impact on the economy, and the pitfalls they encountered in the form of racism and discriminatory laws. This anti-Japanese feeling reached its peak in 1941 with the Japanese invasion on Pearl Harbor and the internment of all Japanese-Americans on the West Coast of the United States. The paper also looks at how the American government has since awarded reparations to those interned and how descendants of Japanese immigrants fare today in American society.

From the Paper
"While many Japanese back in Japan initially waxed enthusiastic about the United States and its culture, the feeling in America was hardly mutual. As was typical of majority White America's relations with Non-Whites, Japanese immigrants were scorned, and their culture denigrated. First, the United States had passed the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882. This was followed by restrictive measures against the Japanese. As Californians and other West Coast White Americans clamored to stop the flow of Japanese to their region, the American Government relied on a rather ingenious and disingenuous clause in its commercial treaty with Japan to staunch the flow of Japanese Labor by refusing to issue permits for their travel to the Mainland. The Japanese, along with the Chinese, were called the "Yellow Peril," their competition for American jobs and resources keeping these jobs and resources from "real" Americans."
