Duke Racism? This link is about racism incident that happened literally around the corner at Duke University. where there is poster of the black lives matter slogan was vandalized by a Caucasian person using derogatory words. To me this was just unnecessary there was no point in this person going out to do this, if that person really feel like that they should have just kept it to themself because that was so rude of someone to do. And the people of color that attend the University may feel unsafe or weary of their surroundings because they don't really know who could do something like that or it is like that. A section in To Kill a Mockingbird that reminds me of this is Mrs. DuBose is talking to Jem and Scout about how their dad represents Tom Robinson. "Your father's no better than the niggers and trash he works for!" By Mrs.DuBose saying that,that shows how low of a person she is. Her saying that was so unnecessary and disrespectful, and to say that to children was just over the top and didn't make any sense.
