Rameraz


            Richard Ramirez was born in 1963 he was also known as the "Night Stalker" What kind of person is prejudice? Is it a person who is rich and looks down on others? Is it someone who is poor? Are they mean? Or maybe even a nice person? All of these people are the answer. People all over judge others on stereotypical ideas, or believe they are inferior doe to their race, religion, or sex. It happens every day, one will shy away from a black man on a dark street, or another may poke fun at the Arabic sales clerk. Essentially this causes tension between people, and in the end it causes hurt. As was Tom Robinson's case, he was a victim of the government judicial system by way of racism. Diallo too was a victim in that he was a suspicious looking man who was black and he was not compensated for his unjustified death. The trial of Tom Robinson was unrighteous in that it took a sensitive black man and framed him. (TKAM 204) Tom was charged by white trash on the account of rape. All ways of life in Maycomb county pointed to blacks as inferior to whites, although it was proved otherwise by his attorney, Atticus Finch. (TKAM 204) Throughout out the trial Atticus makes stunning points as to Tom's intentions as well as health. The Ewells who accused Tom of rape were not respectable people, as well as alcoholics. The evidence shown suggest that Tom merely acted out of his heart for Mayella Ewell's sake. These actions of Tom's led to Mayella tempting a Negro, which in Maycomb county is despised. Mr. Ewell was witness to the tempting and he let her have it. Soon the Ewells would find by blaming Tom of rape, it was the best defense to what Mayella had done. Tom was guilty of nothing, except pity, yet with all the evidence shown, as well as persuing the Ewells as not trustworthy and alcoholics, an all white jury found Tom Robinson, guilty. The Diallo trial was racially divided, in that it consisted of a black mans rights being oppressed by four white officers.
