Discrimination in society has always been a prevalent issue that was not confronted directly in contemporary American society. Through the years, human societies have progressed to great lengths that the possibility of a serious yet (considered) old social problem would surface again in what appeared to be a society highly-tolerant of diversity is considered least likely to happen. Thus, it is an important objective for us to know whether this occurrence is still happening, that is, whether discrimination in remains an inherent character of American society today.

             Narrowing the focus of this discussion, I shall discuss with you a specific facet of discrimination in American society, one that is significant and important to the maintenance of our country's unity and stability as a nation, and security as a state.

             What I shall discuss with you today is the prevalent practice of racial profiling, specifically in the field of criminal justice. I mentioned earlier that discrimination is a possible threat to our unity as Americans, stability as a nation, and security as a state. These fears are best reflected in the negative consequences that could possibly happen should racial profiling continue as a practice among our country's institutions today. .

             I assert before you today that the practice of racial profiling is a practice reflective of our country's current state: a country driven by paranoia, by the constant fear that it will always be threatened by individuals or groups that are 'different' in race, nationality, or culture. .

             Racial profiling mirrors our society's shortsighted view of diversity in the world, of breaking out of the conventions that have been inculcated in American society for years. .

             Racial profiling is, my dear audience, a reflection of the fact that American society has yet to move forward and become a more progressive and intellectually developed society in the future of human societies in the world.
