Even after legal slavery ended, there is still an underlying tone of prejudice from white to black that exists until this day. As a result, there is a prejudice towards whites stemming from blacks that have gathered in retaliation to this hatred. De Tocqueville points out that caucasions as a people can and will never really see themselves and the blacks on equal footing, simply given the subhuman history that the black race has in America. I personally disagree, but the world around me demonstrates subtle prejudices and differences in the way situations are handled between blacks and whites. Although slavery itself is no longer practiced, underlying racism is still alive and thriving in our society and probably will always have a presence in the back of everyone's minds.
