Abstract The paper compares and contrasts the two works, "Race Matters" by Cornel West and "The Souls of Black Folk" by W.E.B. DuBois, focusing on the similarity of black experience nearly 100 years apart. The paper discusses the theme of hatred in these two works and looks at whether blacks and whites can learn more understanding and tolerance. The paper explains that Du Bois seems optimistic this can occur, but West, writing in modern times, is more convinced that nothing but hatred and misunderstanding will exist between blacks and whites for the foreseeable future.
From the Paper "Hatred has marked the black experience in America since southern planters first imported slaves into the country. For many years, the whites hated and distrusted the blacks, and yet relied on them for their manual labor. Later, the hatred translates into distrust on both sides. Author W.E.B. Du Bois notes, "With other black boys the strife was not so fiercely sunny: their youth shrunk into tasteless sycophancy, or into silent hatred of the pale world about them and mocking distrust of everything white.""

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper looks at this book which provides an in-depth study of anti-Semitism through the ages. It shows how the essenstial idea of anti-Semitism was the same at different periods in history but its style and form changed. It shows how at some stages it was based on religious reasons, others on economic reasons while some times simply on fear of the "other". It also looks at the most recent type of anti-Semitism in the form of anti-Zionism.
From the Paper "Part One of this book is entitled ?From the Cross to the Swastika.? This section begins in antiquity with the roots of anti-Semitism beginning in Hellenistic times in Greece and later in ancient Rome. The Jewish Diaspora in the Hellenistic world is described as the Jewish persistence at maintaining their own monotheistic faith, keeping dietary restrictions in accordance with that faith, their disassociation with Gentiles and their contention that the Jewish faith was made up of God?s chosen ones (Wistrich, 4). Greek literature includes passages that express anti-Semitic attitudes against the exclusivity that the Jews themselves created. The reaction of the Hellenistic people was that the Jewish people?s wish to remain separate from their culture was best translated into an expression of ?hatred of the gods? (Wistrich, 5)."

Cold Hatred, 2007. A discussion of "Where is the Voice Coming From?" by Eudora Welty. 1,304 words (approx. 5.2 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 44.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper discusses how Eudora Welty introduces her readers to the mind of a sociopath killer in her short story "Where is the Voice Coming From?". The paper discusses how the author strikingly illustrates the anatomy of racial hatred. The paper examines the short story that is a chilling account of a cold and calculated murder set in the South during the 1960s; the murder of a black man who had been campaigning for equal rights in the town of Thermopylae. The paper shows how the story is written in first person from the killer's perspective, without divulging his name, to allow Welty to retain a sense of moral distance from the character, who deserves no humanization or sympathy that a name would confer.
From the Paper "The narrator is a resentful, spiteful man who murders Roland Summers because he hates seeing African-Americans achieving economic parity with whites, let alone superceding poor whites in the South. Throughout "Where is this Voice Coming From," the narrator reveals his resentful attitude. He says that the black man lives "pretty close to where I live," emphasis on the "I" to emphasize his hatred for simply living in the same region as black people. The narrator's resentment grows deeper and becomes more directly connected to economic parity. For example, he states, "his street's been paved," refers to his "new white car," and his "paved driveway.""

Race Violence, 2004. Presents an analysis of U.S. racial violence and lynching patterns. 863 words (approx. 3.5 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 30.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines how lynchings were a manifestation of race violence that was largely limited to the period lasting from 1889 until 1930. In particular, it explores the social phenomenon of the small Mississippi town and how the experience of black lynching is almost one of the pariahs within homogeneous societies, rather than one of the minorities within intolerant societies. It also looks at how institutional race hatred, such as is reflected in the lynchings, was largely phenomenological and how popular awareness of Mississippi culture was first gained through the literature of Faulkner and others.
From the Paper "Because the number of lynchings is 400 between 1889 and 1930, a comprehensive study of these would have to explore the given reasoning behind the activity and the social context in which they were performed. For instance, the race-related killings in the United States surged following 9/11 were related to a singular event with national coverage that was interpreted by communities according to their existing knowledge of terrorism, Arabs, Islam and Islamic fundamentalism. Lynching must be explored as a methodology, as it only occurs in certain types of communities (small, closely integrated, racially segregated.) This is a deliberate methodology designed to instill fear in the black population, which differentiates it significantly from other forms of race-hate."

Race, Ethnicity, and Diversity, 2001. This paper is about racial hatred, how people learn to hate, and why their reasoning is flawed. 1,558 words (approx. 6.2 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 51.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper defines the terms race, ethnicity and diversity and applies them to racial hatred in America. The paper refers to the movie, "American History X", Malcolm X, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the Declaration on Independence, and the Brown vs. Board of Education on Topeka case. The paper talks about how people learn to hate and why people who have racial hatred are flawed in their reasoning for it. It explores why we would should not hate, especially in a place like America and how it goes against all the values Americans hold dear. This paper also addresses the issue of terrorism.
From the Paper "In American History X, Derek Vinyard was overwhelmed with hatred against all people of another race or ethnicity. He had a hatred against any expression of diversity. Race and ethnicity are simply words used to describe characteristics of people, and diversity is the word used to talk about the differences in these characteristics. Race, ethnicity, and diversity are just words and descriptions; they do not express the character of a person which it what really matters. Race is drawn essentially among color lines and color does not say much about a person. Race concerns the differing physical characteristics between people whose ancestors stem from different geographical origins. The three main races of the world are the Caucasian who are originally European and have white skin, the Negroid race, which originated in Africa and have black skin, and the Mongoloid race that has skin that falls somewhere between black and white. Race can also describe differences in facial features, body size, limb proportion, skull measurements, and hair color."

From the Paper "The more countries and lands they could conquer, the more power they had. But in order to win the favor of Western countries, they set themselves up as champions against communism. This gained at least partial tolerance for their earlier actions from the Western democracies. These democracies wanted peace and didn?t believe that another war could begin so quickly after the first war. The military was very unprepared for what came from this tolerance."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses the themes found in James Baldwin's book, "The Fire Next Time". The devastating effects of white supremacy and the degrading treatment endured by Baldwin and all other blacks is described as race, religion, hatred, suffering, white supremacy, the black separatist movement, change, liberation and vengeance as themes are shown to be a natural outgrowth of Baldwin's childhood in New York's Harlem. Finally, Baldwin's alternative to vengeance and "The Fire Next Time" is discussed as his solution to the race problem evolves into his major themes of love and humanity.
From the Paper "James Baldwin?s The Fire Next Time, published in 1962, was an ultimatum to American whites to wake up to the degradation they had been forcing upon American blacks at the cost of their own debasement. He was issuing a warning that if his advice was ignored there would be a heavy price to pay, a price as horrible as the destruction of the world by fire. Baldwin?s passionately expressed themes are race, religion, hatred, suffering, white supremacy, the black separatist movement, change, liberation, vengeance, and most significant of all, the one that can avert the fire, humanity and love.

Effect of Nazi Germany on the Jews, 2000. This paper takes a look at what caused the Holocaust, traces the progress of discrimination and oppression through society and the legislative body, and looks at the horrible outcome of the tragedy. 1,820 words (approx. 7.3 pages), 2 sources, $ 58.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper is focused on the progression of the anti-Semitic actions of the German people in the 1930?s and 40?s. It looks at the roots of hatred, the legislation that was passed that discriminated against the Jews, an overview of the Holocaust, and the war crimes trials at Nuremberg.
From the paper:
"Hitler harbored a hatred for the Jews that was unparalleled anywhere in the world. Where this hatred stemmed from is unclear, but it was very evident that Hitler blamed the Jews for all the problems in Germany and in his own life, and that he was sincere in his convictions. When he became Fuhrer his view was not only pushed upon the public, it became a nightmare for all the Jews in Germany, and later, for all the Jewish populations of Europe. Hitler sought not just to eliminate their power and influence, but to wipe out the people themselves. What makes it even more ghastly is that he felt that he was doing the world a favor by these actions, and that God had selected him for this mission of purification, which he called "the Final Solution". Using his unique speaking ability, Hitler preached that the Aryan race was the master race, and the inferior Jews were holding them back, spreading lies and evil in Germany. The story of the ordeal that the Jews in Europe endured includes the beginning of discrimination, the legislation passed against them, the concentration camps, the liberation of the camps, and the war criminals trial held in Nuremberg. All of these parts play key roles in trying to understand how this could happen and how it can be prevented from ever happening again."

Abstract This paper examines Amy Chua's discussion on how markets, democracy and ethnic hatred lead to genocide among minority groups within national social orders as expressed in her work, "World on Fired: How Exporting Free Market Democracy Breeds Ethnic Hatred and Global Instability". The paper explains Chua's contention that as nations have attempted to open their markets to free trade the wealth of these countries has been allocated to a specific population that fails to meet the needs of the impoverished within society. As this occurs there is a rising hatred among the citizenry who comprise the majority of the population who seek out those in the minority and slaughter those of the oppressing class.

Introduction
Thesis
Analysis
Conclusion
From the Paper "Ethnic stereotypes have been a powerful subject for theatre because of the emotional and psychological effects that it produces in the readers. Often ethnic stereotypes have been portrayed in various forms which have been helpful to identify and expose the social maladies present in the society. Perhaps the reason why social stereotypes have been described in various manners is that it often brings out different perspectives of racial discrimination and the responses of the affected groups towards racial distinction. The play Funnyhouse of a Negro by Adrienne Kennedy is an effort in this direction and describes the mental and emotional stress that the central character, Sarah has to undergo because of her mixed lineage."

Why the Holocaust Happened in Germany, 2007. This paper explores the idea that the Holocaust was not an exclusive event chosen by the German people due to their hatred of Jews. 1,521 words (approx. 6.1 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 50.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines Raul Hilberg and Christopher Browning's understanding of how the Holocaust happened. The paper discusses their claim that the Holocaust was not an exclusive event chosen by the German people due to their hatred for Jews, but was due to a combination of factors including the administrative smoothness of the operation, the impersonal quality of the killing and the belief that it had to do with the frailty of human beings in general. The paper concludes by refuting the argument presented by Daniel Goldhagen that the Holocaust was an exclusively German event. The paper uses MLA style footnotes but does not append a bibliography.
From the Paper "The pivotal question to the debate on the Holocaust is whether it could have happened only in Germany by ethnically German people, or whether it was a set of various factors that would produce the same results regardless of the ethnicity of the people. Hilberg argues that being German was irrelevant, and that such a thing could happen in any society even today. The Holocaust was not executed by the German people because of some deep-seeded German hatred for Jews, but instead was able to occur due to the vast German bureaucratic system. The "final solution" did not consist of a single department staffed with specialists in destruction, but instead it was a multi-pronged operation of a highly decentralized apparatus, which included all parts of German society, its ministries, armed forces, party formations, and industry."

From the Paper "American Imperialism as a Cause of September 11?
Perhaps the two most frequently asked questions after the terrorist attacks of September 11, were "Why do these people hate America so?" and "Are we somehow partially to blame for inciting terrorists?" There are no simple, pat answers. But, scanning some of the letters to the editors in this weeks TIME Magazine (Oct 22) might shed some light on the issue:
"The problem is that U.S. citizens have little reciprocal feeling for U.S. engineered human tragedy elsewhere. The U.S. needs to be aware that even among the countries is considers its subordinates and even within affluent nations the U./S. considers its compliant..."
