		Unfortunately, those who regularly use racial slurs may not be the sort of persons inclined to heed counsel from a religious leader of any denomination.
		In some settings, racial banter, when it works both ways, may actually be an indication that racism in America is fading, that judgment by skin color is gradually giving way to judgment based on character.
		It will never be old-fashioned, however, to condemn genuinely hurtful expressions, or those that convey a message of racial inferiority or superiority, or words that label a person on the basis of class or which tend to maintain negative stereotypes.

	When Law and Order Works
		Abstract: Racial and ethnic violence continues to be a major problem in the United States Boston which experienced heightened racial turmoil since its desegregation process presents an excellent case study of a police department that faced the problem in a straightforward manner.
		Racial incidents continued to occur, but were generally not treated as "priority ones." Supervisors did not respond to incidents as the policy required.
		Statistics on racial incidents can be misleading (prior to 1978 they were not even compiled and underreporting is common), but it is nevertheless significant to observe the steady decline in racial incidents from 1978 to the present, as shown in Table 1.

		Many critics of racial profiling claim that it is an unconstitutional practice because it amounts to questioning individuals on the basis of what crimes they might commit or could possibly commit, instead of what crimes they have actually committed.
		While this usually refers to discrimination against minority racial groups in Western societies, it can also (arguably) refer to the opposite situation, and in that case is often called reverse discrimination when it is due to affirmative action or other attempts to remedy past or current discrimination against minority racial groups.
		Racism infers an assumption of racial superiority and a harmful intent, whereas separatists sometimes prefer the term racialism, indicating a strong interest in matters of race without a necessary inference of superiority or a desire to be harmful to others.

	Aguilar v. Avis Rent A Car System Inc.
		A jury found that defendants had engaged in employment discrimination, in part by permitting plaintiffs to be the target of racial epithets repeatedly spoken by a fellow employee.
		Defendants argue that the use of racial epithets outside the hearing of Hispanic employees does not contribute to a hostile work environment if the audience does not find the speech unwelcome and the subjects of the racial invective are unaware they are being maligned.
		It certainly is possible that the use of racial epithets even outside the hearing of plaintiffs would contribute to an atmosphere of racial hostility that would perpetuate the hostile work environment created by defendants.

	Mark Twain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although Twain was against racism and imperialism far ahead of the public sentiment of his time, those who have only superficial familiarity with his work have sometimes condemned it as racist because it accurately depicts language in common use in the 19th-century United States.
		Expressions that were used casually and unselfconsciously then are often perceived today as racist (today, such racial epithets are far more visible and condemned).
		Twain himself would probably be amused by these attempts; in 1885, when a library in Concord, Massachusetts banned the book, he wrote to his publisher, "They have expelled Huck from their library as 'trash suitable only for the slums'; that will sell 25,000 copies for us for sure."

		He pointed out that in some songs curse words are replaced with clean words while, in others, epithets and curse words are merely covered up by silence, allowing listeners to still infer from context the edited words.
		Writer Joan Morgan said the announcement amounted to "absolutely nothing." She called the recommendations "short-sighted at best and disingenuous at worst." It was, she said, an "anemic, insufficient response" that failed to address homophobia and other issues in certain strains of hip-hop culture and rap music.
