Walker: White People and Well-educated Black Man

A well-educated black man, with dreams of qualification it in the world, is What Jerald Walker was determined to do. Walker had grown up in a community where opinions abtaboo livids were shared by everyone. Whites discriminated against black concourse and anything that was believed as bad by black tidy sum, was blamed on the white people. In order to succeed, Walker would have to Be like his associate Clyde. Clyde did not fit the stereotype, of a regular black man. His brother said things like, whites arent an obstacle to success and only you cant stop you.In Scattered Inconveniences, Jerald Walker is up against what seems to be a snapper cowboy that is essay to intimidate and scare because his family wasnt from that part of the country. it turns out that the guy honking his horn and riding his bumper, is solely a good Samaritan trying to prevent a washer from falling out of the back of Walkers truck. I think that Walker is talking from his own experience, when he states tha t everyone is a racialist reasonable by nature, he is saying that we all learn stereotyping from the people around us.I dont think that his statement is necessarily organism a racist, I feel that everyone is discriminated against for something whether it be the color of our skin, the clothes that we wear, or the place that we live. I see myself being like Walker, just presumptuous this guy is out to hurt me and my family just because Im a different race. Not fitting the stereotype, I would probably react the same, just get mad and then feel really bad for just automatically thinking the worse first.
