Race in America

My name is Mykal. I was assigned a project where I will write a blog on a specific topic. I decided that I'd choose race. In the article I chose, it showed how the racism went from pointing towards Native Americans to pointing to African Americans. This can definitely relate to current events. While there is still racism towards black people, there's also a lot of racism towards Muslim people because of 9/11, ISIS, bombings, and so on. Many people think all Muslim people are terrorists and want to ban them from our country, but that is not true. We can never say every single person from one group is the same. Not all Muslims are terrorists, not all white people are racist, not all black people are "ghetto", etc.
