Common Prejudices

2000
This site takes an in depth view on some of today's hate crimes. We use South Carolina's proposed Hate Crimes Bill; s.45, sponsered by state senators Glover, Washington, Elliot and Jackson.Crimes we cover are based on sexism, ageism, homophobia, racism, and religious persecution. We also explore prejudices based on physical appearance/social status and physical/mental health. Also included are supplementary crimes that may not apply to the hate crimes bill specifically, but that we have found to be relevant to the topic. Lists of inspiring books, movies, and CDs, are also included.
