In the inner city a lot of discrimination occurs, just from the little things such as, discrimination in a workplace or school environment. Another example of this is when a group of ‘white’ boys wouldn’t want to socialize with ‘black’ boys as the stereotype for boys of that ethnicity isn’t the best at this present moment of time. This can be seen as racism to a certain extent, because, they feel like they are superior to other races, and feel like they are not good enough to be in their presence. Another piece of discrimination that is going in the inner city, is the way people have been treating Muslim’s recently, due to the things that have been going in Syria with the Islamic State terrorist group. Another reason people scrutinize Muslim’s in today’s society is, the terrorist attack on the Charlie Hebdo magazine which happened in France, and sent shock waves all over the world and made the hashtag ‘#JeSuisCharlie’ trend on Twitter for a couple weeks. This hashtag was to support the people of France and all people who were affected by the attacks to show their respect. This lead to other major politicians all over the world to speak up about the situation of terrorism and how the whole of the world should work together to shut it down. Another piece of evidence of discrimination in the inner city is, the situation going on in America where, the police force are killing innocent young black men with bright futures. It’s at the point where the U.S government would defend a ‘white’ racist serial killer, but would kill a young black man who is in a wheelchair with both hands in the air, and the rest of the society would just turn a blind eye.
