In reference to racism this article is old news. Since we have ostracized ourselves and developed a monumental amount of apathy about racism, this article should help to remind us of our obligations to resolve this horrific endeavor on racism.

This particular study is tantamount to studies done by sociologists decades ago. Sociologists have compiled monumental amounts of data on racism in this nation and this data has been placed on hiatus and forgotten.By exposing a repeat of these studies in the media for a momment only serve the purposes of the journalists and the organizations that employ them. It does nothing to resolve the ordeal of racism in this nation. These particular studies on racism have vital info that is paramount to the survival of this nation. To have this data sitting on shelves in our universities and not applying it to help heal this nation is a crime to humanity. Studies on racism when exposed to the nation via the media can serve a tremendous purpose by creating an awareness that racism exists, however, it is imperative that we as a nation move to the next step and that step is applying the data of all these studies. If we do not move toward a resolution, the future of this nation as pertaining to racial harmony could be bleak and dismal.
