Throughout the course of the legislative session he said that sex education should take place in the home and was pleased to see the bill pass in the Senate.
Parents have the right to decide how they will raise their children and what they (under the adult legal age) can or can not be taught. An abstinence only sex education would perhaps serve as a foundation and further education if wanted can take place in the household.
Current Utah law permits instruction about, but not advocacy for, contraceptives and sexual intercourse, but requires parents to give permission for their children to take the class.
Such a requirement may be necessary to give parents the option to opt out their children due to strong religious beliefs.
So, while African American juvenile youth is but 16% of the population, they are 28% of juvenile arrests, 37% of the youth in juvenile jails and 58% of the youth sent to adult prisons. 2009 Criminal Justice Primer, The Sentencing Project.
In her essay, Amanda Geller explains that paternal incarceration often results in high rates of juvenile delinquency. So high African American arrests will likely have an effect on family dynamics and influences children of incarcerated parents to alter their behaviors.
Two. The police stop blacks and Latinos at rates that are much higher than whites. In New York City, where people of color make up about half of the population, 80% of the NYPD stops were of blacks and Latinos. When whites were stopped, only 8% were frisked. When blacks and Latinos are stopped 85% were frisked according to information provided by the NYPD. The same is true most other places as well. In a California study, the ACLU found blacks are three times more likely to be stopped than whites.
I read in another article, that the police claims that one of the reasons why they stop blacks so often is because if they live in higher crime neighborhoods, their actions often trigger the police's "suspicion instinct".

strong imagery and metaphors
They will be the James Merediths, with the noble sense of purpose that enables them to face jeering and hostile mobs, and with the agonizing loneliness that characterizes the life of the pioneer. They will be old, oppressed, battered Negro women, symbolized in a seventy two year old woman in Montgomery, Alabama, who rose up with a sense of dignity and with her people decided not to ride segregated buses, and who responded with ungrammatical profundity to one who inquired about her weariness: "My feets is tired, but my soul is at rest." They will be the young high school and college students, the young ministers of the gospel and a host of their elders, courageously and nonviolently sitting in at lunch counters and willingly going to jail for conscience' sake.
