Abstract

I grew up in a very small town of twelve-hundred people. Now that I look back, I realize that my town, Greenfield, contained absolutely no diversity; the population was one-hundred percent Caucasian. However, when I'd visit my friends in neighboring towns, they had lots of black friends who became my friends too, and I never thought anything of it. Until quite recently I had no idea racism still existed; I had always thought of it as something that had happened in the past, brought up only in history books. After being at Augustana College for some time, and doing some research I realized that the idea of racism is still a very much discussed concept. I believe the most prominent issue about racism has to do with schools today. The United States is rapidly becoming a multicultural society and therefore our schools are becoming very multicultural as well.
