the 12 years old Tamir Rick, Who was shot and killed by police officers, after mistaking Rice's pellet gun for an actual firearm. latter on the city of Cleveland argued in court that "Tamir caused his own death", but following criticisms over the accusation, city officials apologized and vowed to change the "language" in a future court document. the use of inappropriate racial grammar could greatly offend people and particularly those who are the victims or the family of the victim, this type of languages is standard in legal responses to wrongful death lawsuits. the police stated that according to the cleaveleand.com , that the 12 years old was sitting under a pavilion in the park with a few people, suggesting that the boy could have been a threat to others. although the video footage shows Rick was sitting along as the police offcers pulled up and shot him without even giving the kid a chance to say anything. the languages that were picked up by the media were found to be offending for many people such as stating "Tamir was the cause for his own death", and blaming his family for the death of their son, how ridiculous! racial grammar'' and the words we use to portray individuals is the consequences of the society we live in, racial grammar is very important concept because linguistic is used in our daily lives therefore, if punctuation is not appropriately utilized as a part of a sentences, racism will never end, we must revise our method for utilizing these sentence structure or words.
When people rely on surface appearances and false racial stereotypes, rather than in depth knowledge of others at the level of the heart, mind and spirit, their ability to assess and understand people accurately is compromised. Racial violence and other forms of discrimination and violence in a culture cannot be eliminated without changing culture, therefore, i believe it is up to each and every one of us to change the world, and make a difference for once in our lives, and, to do so we must start today, if actions are not put into work then, nothing will ever change.
