This project is about racial profiling and will be used to bring awareness to it. When a benign racial profile, you feel singled out and alone. It being judged on your race, which isn't something you can change or control, and that experience can be really alienating. Because at the moment you feel like you did something wrong, but you did nothing but be you, being profiled makes you feel like that is something wrong within yourself, and it isn't, it's just that people have this preconceived notion about what they expect u to be cause you look a certain race.
I’ve chosen this for of project because my brother told me about and incident he had at Acme and how they called him to the side to check his book bag and make sure he didn’t take anything.
My for of out reach is going to be a meeting at the school gym with other students and I’ll have a pice of paper with the question (Have you ever felt racially profiled and if you have can you please share the story about it? If you have not why do u think that is? )
That they are not alone when it comes to being tacky profiled and that it happens more the they know it’s not their fault but instead it’s the people who have clouded perceptions even when the evidence it right there.
