Discrimination

The federal law has taken the initiative to say that there will be not tolerance for discrimination against the Arab, Muslim, Sikh, and South-Asian Americans, as well as those that are perceived to be members of these groups. Legislation previously states this as part of the citizens of the United States’ Civil Rights, but after the 9/11 tragedy, felt the need to reinforce this fact. The Civil Rights Division’s National Origin Working Group has been working extremely hard to see to it that violations the Civil Rights legislation do not arise. Even though the federal law clearly forbids discrimination, there are some that are not adhering to the legislation. They tend to violate the federal law in some way shape or form, sometimes unknowingly; however, that does not serve as a deterrent from penalties.

1. The federal law states that there should be no discrimination of any kind. Unfortunately, people tend to ignore the Civil Rights legislation to the far extreme. There have been several reports of biased crimes that have been reported against those that people perceive to be members of these groups. Federal law does not permit for a person to be threatened, assaulted, be a victim of arson or vandalism due to a form of discrimination. Authorities therefore want to reinforce the legislation so that the public is aware of what violations of what this federal law will bring to them.

2. The Civil Rights Division’s National Origin Working Group is working quite intensely to prevent this legislation from being violated. Any one who decides to violate this federal law can very well expect to be brought to justice. Besides minimizing these crimes in any way, shape, or form, the government wants to be sure that these legislation violators are brought to justice.

3. There are also some violations of the Civil Rights legislation that the Civil Rights Division’s National Origin Working Group will also bring to justice. There are also people that violate the federal law in a way that they feel they may get away with because it may not be quite as drastic. They also choose not to adhere to the legislation because they feel that they can discriminate against perceived members of these groups in terms of employment, housing, education, public transportation and facilities, but this is highly forbidden, just as well, by the federal law. The Civil Rights Division’s National Origin Working Group is working extra hard to find these violators of the legislation, even though some feel that the victim may not even know that they are behaving in such a way, but there is a valiant government effort against this very notion. The truth will eventually come to the light one way or another.
