Orenthal James Simpson Research Paper

James J Walker is a man that is put down in history as one of New York City’s mayors. Still James J Walker had a darker side to him that the public didn’t witness. James J Walker better known as Jimmy Walker was born June 19, 1881. A young boy that grew up in poverty, not being a great student, and dropped out of college later was graduated from New York Law School in 1904 and later went into politics and joined the State Senate. After many years in the Senate, Jimmy set his sights in on the 1926 elections for Mayor of New York.

In the trial of Orenthal James Simpson (O.J. or Juice), Mr.Simpson was proven not guilty, but in the opinion of many OJ was guilty. In my personal opinion Mr. Simpson did not get the sentence he should have. OJ was guilty and everyone knew he was, even himself knew he was guilty. This man went to his trial expecting to get a death row sentence. OJ murdered two human beings in cold blood. This man should be watching his life passed behind four walls but instead the jury turned him loose, until 2007 he was arrested for robbery with a deadly weapon. OJ should have never walked out of the courtroom from the murder case and the robbery would have never took place, he is a criminal.

“Never be happy with just good. Every single day, you need to do something to make yourself better than everybody else. That’s the only way we’re going to improve,” said JJ Watt, a NFL player. JJ Watt is a defensive end for the Houston Texans. He is not only a very good football player, he is an amazing person. When Hurricane Harvey hit the Coast of Texas, he spent his time, money, started fundraisers and got other people to help out. This is why Kindred should invite JJ Watt to speak to our community.

Understanding that the poverty of black Americans did not just stay within the home is a big step in understanding urban poverty. Urban poverty reached outside the home, into the parks, schools and playgrounds. With poverties reach being that extensive, there was something other than adversity causing this. Louis Gates wrote an article about this called “Black America and The Class Divide.” (Jr.)

like their jobs in the South. And those who found a job were lucky to have a job at all, because many blacks could find no job, leaving them to live with other job-less blacks in unsanitary and run-down housing. This type of housing grew, creating black slums, or ghettos,

Most of the time, the Blacks had to pay a large amount of money for taxes and did not receive much in return. However, black children were allowed to go to school and receive an education. Many of them dropped out after only two or three years however so they could help their families tend the farms. For those who did continue till they were old enough for collage, they did not attend because, one, tuition was immensely expensive and because two, not many collages would accept Black scholars.

According to Daily Life... (Kaldin, 2000) the population of suburban areas during the 1950s had started to double from 36 million to 74 million. This rise in suburban residents had continued from 1950 to 1970.When more families had started to move to suburban areas, they came together by adding things such as playgrounds, libraries, and schools to the neighborhood to benefit their kids. This “flight to the suburbs” was difficult for blacks because of the racism in society at the time. Many black people were ignored and shunned at this time in society, so it was hard for blacks to move into suburbs knowing that they could be ridiculed in these areas because of their skin color.

There was unemployment to a certain degree amongst the black community, as over 10% of black people were unemployed. This could be linked to poverty and poor quality of schooling and education Poverty and the condition of living and housing was a major

Racial segregation has had a long history in Chicago. While separation by nationality had always been apparent in the city, with neighborhoods typically being dominated by a certain ethnicity, no group of Chicagoans experienced the degree of segregation that African Americans faced in everything from the housing districts to public services. Forced to live only in designated areas by de facto segregation, redlining, and other tactics, they had limited chances to escape the cycle of danger and discrimination of the city. Confined to only their deteriorating neighborhoods,they had little chance.

Public Education for African American children was much harder, deprived of money, and good supplies. Often times they would have to use the old discarded school books from the white kids, if anything at all. African American school buildings were worth a sliver of what the white communities were worth, which made is so that some students couldn't even attend. “Less money went to schools for African American students. Sometimes black students used the books discarded from white schools” (Ncp). The property taxes on land depleted and schools wouldn't have enough resources to teach as many kids. Some teachers even were getting paid almost nothing. The students were unable to receive a good education. “The value of farm land plummeted, and that meant that property taxes that supported schools fell as well.” Some schools cut school lunches, and lunch workers. Students had to bring their own lunches, and most of the time it was nothing more than a biscuit. They had to drink the water from the school well, and most of the students didn't eat at all. Some students went to school hungry, and came home even hungrier. “Some schools saved money by getting rid of cafeterias and cafeteria

The immigrants from abroad and the African-Americans both left their homelands of restricted opportunities and sought to find better ones. The African-Americans came without proper clothing and skills, unaware of the future obstacles ahead. Their environment and surroundings were significantly different in the South than the lively cities in the North. Before migrating, the African-Americans lives consisted of mainly working in the fields in the blistering, hot sun, or working as servants or tenants for white property owners; they had never laid eyes upon a building or factory. For the immigrants, coming to urban America was an enormous change as well. They were oblivious to the American culture, American politics and economics, and were unable to read or speak English, in most cases. While settling in the northern cities, there were certain harsh conditions that the African Americans along with the immigrants experienced. They both were forced to live with their families in small, unsanitary living spaces due to the intense persecution and racialization from American outsiders. Families in neighborhoods grouped together, and each family member contributed economically to the family income. To relieve these challenges and harsh conditions, both African-American and immigrant groups were obliged to do certain tasks in the new, metropolitan surrounding.

Homer Jay Simpson was born on May 12, 1956, and was raised on a farm by his parents Abraham and Mona Simpson. His favorite places to hang-out is at the local Kwik-E-Mart, the Krusty Burger owned by Krusty the clown, and Moe’s

Colored people during that period were not just facing racial segregation but also, they faced serious poverty. For example in the documentary “Journey to Justice”(NFB,2000), black people lived in a city called, purposely “Afric Ville” which was basically the sewer, dump and garbage of all the other regions. Footage of little kids playing in the garbage were shown, which draws upon racial inequality because in fact, Afric Ville was just outside Halifax were whites dominated and actually lived a pretty decent life full of wealth, health and education. “In other words, though they are in a similarly precarious economic position as poor Blacks, poor Whites still experience race-based privileges, while poor Blacks are oppressed not only by poverty but also by racism”( Mathew Desmond, Mustafa Emibayer,2009;14-15)
