Quiz 6 Question 1




This political campaign exemplifies the racial divide and apparent opinion of a large contingent of the state of Alabama (Tim James almost won the position of governor in Alabama with a decision only coming after a run off). The obvious racist aspect of this campaign is the fact that Tim James is advocating giving drivers license tests in only English because that is dominant language in the United States. He doesn't take into account the fact that the Hispanic population is rapidly approaching becoming the majority race in the United States. That fact aside, nations are developed among many different cultures especially in a country such as the United States, so for a politician to run a campaign based on excluding certain cultures and races is absolutely absurd.
