Bibliographic Essay Proposal

For my bibliographic essay, my topic is dealing with an issue thats been going for many years
and still currently unrest today. The topics I wanted to do were hard to choose from since there
was too much to talk about and the ideas that I wanted to make were broad. However I choose
this topic for my bibliographic essay because it was easy to write about a subject that has many
current situations dealing with African American citizens. People in America today think that
African Americans are now confronting the issue of how unfair people treat them. Actually its
been going on since the 19th and 20th century, however in todays society African Americans are
coming forth to exploit the wrong matter. To sum it up, the question that is making individuals in
America wonder why do African American citizens believe that their lives dont matter? The
current issue will still probably not be put to rest because the issues of African American citizens
want to be swept under the rug since blacks are stereotyped and judged of what they should be
instead of how Blacks actually are. Reflecting to that, my main points are covering black
stereotypes, discrimination, murder, and arrest. I believe that these four main points will illustrate
the unjust matters in Black lives in America. In conclusion for my topic and bibliographic essay
paper; the past conflicts of African Americans being hated upon, favoritism, and Whites being
prejudice to African American citizens is still currently going on today.
