This marks my return to the blogosphere after an unplanned 3 days absence. In that time, I have tried to come out with what I plan to write for my Analytical Paper and come up with scholarly sources to back it up.
At this point, I am pretty sure I will be discussing the issue of discrimination and equality. I feel that is relevant in the times we live in. Discrimination, though reduced, is not really gone yet. It still rears it’s ugly head in many circumstances of everyday life.
People it seems, are hardwired to discriminate against each other. We cannot help but look down on people we feel are not as opportune as us. I intend to discuss why we discriminate against each other and hopefully offer some solutions to this problem.
I have only begun to search for sources that are relevant and so I’ll list a few I think apply:

Hopefully after going through all these I would have come up with enough material to make a compelling argument.
