Despite the fact the 1800s was two centuries ago, racism is still persistent in the 21st century. Even with the election of the first black president, Obama is biracial, yet he is still recognized as black. Many black Americans thought racism would cease to exist with Obama in office. The color of skin and race still lives on, after all the United States is multicultural. As in the 1800s, racism had astronomically effects on society; nonetheless American citizens have more laws and agencies to safeguard against racism. Remember, slavery is a part of America’s history and it can’t be erased like an error. Harriet Jacobs wrote, “There are wrongs which even the grave does not bury.” Despite the abolishment of slavery, racism has simply adapted to the changes within society.

The technologies used are peripheral blood stem cells and bone marrow stem cells. They can be obtained by drawing blood which makes them easier to gather than stem cells from bone marrow. This is usually challenging because these blood stem cells aren’t very populated in the bloodstream. Bone marrow stem cell technology has been used for more than twenty years. According to the National Cancer Institute:
Random rounds and beats travelled by police personnel in districts and zones created from geographical boundaries have dominated law enforcement techniques for the last forty years. Although in more recent times, agencies have moved toward a more community based approach of officers using their best problem solving methods to limit problems and aid the public, most budgets require a more efficient leaner force to protect and enforce.

Let’s begin with racism, which dates back to as far as humans can remember. “It may be defined as the hatred of one person by another -- or the belief that another person is less than human -- because of skin color, language, customs, place of birth or any factor that supposedly reveals the basic nature of that person. It has influenced wars, slavery, the formation of nations, and legal codes” One of the most known acts of racism was the enslavement of Africans in the new world. This racism was a result of the racist belief that black Africans were less human than white Europeans.

Yet Shrek outshines them both, boasting the most impressive detail and most amazingly rendered creatures of any motion picture in its class. Set in a CGI (computer graphical illustration) world populated by kings, mythical creatures, and fairy tales Creatures. This made me remember fairy tale Creatures such as The 3 Blind Mice, The 3 Bears and Robin Hood. Mike Myers provides the voice of the potato-faced monster stringed into rescuing a beautiful princess (Cameron Diaz) from the far-away lair of a giant pink fire-breathing dragon. In return for this act of bravery, he's been promised to have his home cleared of all horrible fairy tale creatures by the short and wicked Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow). Shrek predictably finds himself getting all mushy over his truelove girlfriend Fiona, and also the princess turns out to have a monstrous secret of her own. This film is easy to foll...
