1. After reading the ideas of M. Alexander, we can analyze the importance of the use of language to avoid a law or on the contrary take advantage of the application of the law using determinate language. The language “Law and Order” was created to bring back the initial situation of people of color, where the inequalities, economic injustices, unemployment, and low income, take place again under the substitution to the language “Segregation Forever” of the Civil Rights Laws approved by the Federal Government. Was a new racially neutral language accompanied by the political movement of the affluent Southern.
  2. The politics of the southern states are an integral part of American politics, as they also participate in the decision-making process in the US. Despite this, they maintain their autonomy as liberal states in the South. Presently, we are witnessing progressive changes in laws that are improving the social situation of the populations of both the liberal and conservative states. However, there still exists a silent racial war in some states. One example of the influence of Southern politics is the law allowing pro-abortion in some states of the US, which has created a divide between the belief in life and the concept of “women’s rights”.
