Difficulty's and down falls

The pitfalls that I might have in this project is that one of us might not be here so one of us will have to work alone or if your partner has all of the information then you will have to try to work something out and try to do something else. My partner and I might disagree on things and we might fight about what we should do.

People might be uncomfortable about talking about the "N" word or how they feel about the topic just because it is a sensitive topic and it is something people don't normally talk about. They might also be uncomfortable talking about when it is OK to the "N" word. I think that this will be a really sensitive topic because it is something most people don't like to talk about.

Racism around the world

Most of racism was started in the European country's. the blacks where treated like slaves and there where more black people unemployed then white people.The violence increased as racism got worse. The KKK have been around since 1870 and are still around. Some people still believe that white people are better then black people or as they say " the white supremacy.
