Beckles, Jr., (a.k.a Vic "Iceman" Beckles) explore cold cases, and numerous civil rights violations in America through “The Injustice Files.” OTHER RECENT REVIEWS: Published: Feburary 14, 2011 Augusta, GA Disgraced Cop-- Deputy Jack Rackliff is being fired from the Augusta Richmond County Sheriff's Office for not being "truthful" during an interview process, and for the wrongful arrest of renown Firefighter, Military Veteran, Church Pastor, & ex-Cop; Rev. Dr. Franklyn V. Beckles, Jr. (Currently a Published Book Author and Independant Filmmaker), -Violating his civil rights, and telling jailers to keep him in jail, despite bail! Each time Rackliff was asked about the incident, his story would change, while he and the sheriff cohersed false statements alleging that Rev. Beckles was irate with the deputy, when Rev. Beckles secretly had witnesses listening to Rackliff being the one who was irate and hurling false accusations on his cell's speakerphone. Which all turned out to be case of mistaken identity, Rackliff arrested the wrong person, and he knew it. Rackliff belligerently confronted Rev. Beckles trying to get him to confess to something he didn't do; Rev. Beckles, had already called his wife, who was listening to the whole senario along with their son, and mother-in-law. Rackliff, realizing that he was busted, and when Dr. Beckles asked to speak to his attorney, the deputy got even more angry and put handcuffs on the pastor & firefighter. Needless to say, the charges was eventually dropped, followed by a civil lawsuit (one of many for uninfortunate circumstances like this which happens all too often in The South, and places like Augusta and Aiken County.) Against The Augusta Richmond County Police Department.

Despite the desire to bring closure to these crimes, the real value in "Injustice Files" lies in recounting that terrible history, through archival footage and first-person testimony. And while the program -- which comes from CBS News' CBS EYE Prods., under "48 Hours" producers Susan Zirinsky and Adrian Green-- features some of the same overproduced elements as that franchise, it's handled seriously enough to treat the material with the gravity it deserves. Although ID has boosted its ratings with tabloid titles like "Hookers: Saved on the Strip" and "Who the (Bleep) Did I Marry?" -- and provided critics easy punch lines in the process -- to lump this show in with those wouldn't do it justice.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RacismEvolutionary theories about the origins of racism
See also: Ethnocentrism
Biologists John Tooby and Leda Cosmides were puzzled by the fact that race is one of the three characteristics most often used in brief descriptions of individuals (the others are age and sex). They reasoned that natural selection would not have favoured the evolution of an instinct for using race as a classification, because for most of human history, humans almost never encountered members of other races. Tooby and Cosmides hypothesized that modern people use race as a proxy (rough-and-ready indicator) for coalition membership, since a better-than-random guess about "which side" another person is on will be helpful if one does not actually know in advance.Their colleague Robert Kurzban designed an experiment whose results appeared to support this hypothesis. Using the Memory confusion protocol, they presented subjects with pictures of individuals and sentences, allegedly spoken by these individuals, which presented two sides of a debate. The errors which the subjects made in recalling who said what indicated that they sometimes misattributed a statement to a speaker of the same race as the "correct" speaker, although they also sometimes misattributed a statement to a speaker "on the same side" as the "correct" speaker. In a second run of the experiment, the team also distinguished the "sides" in the debate by clothing of similar colors; and in this case the effect of racial similarity in causing mistakes almost vanished, being replaced by the color of their clothing. In other words, the first group of subjects, with no clues from clothing, used race as a visual guide to guessing who was on which side of the debate; the second group of subjects used the clothing color as their main visual clue, and the effect of race became very small. [60]
Some research suggests that ethnocentric thinking may have actually contributed to the development of cooperation. Political scientists Ross Hammond and Robert Axelrod created a computer simulation wherein virtual individuals were randomly assigned one of a variety of skin colors, and then one of a variety of trading strategies: be color-blind, favor those of your own color, or favor those of other colors. They found that the ethnocentric individuals clustered together, then grew until all the non-ethnocentric individuals were wiped out.[61]
In The Selfish Gene, evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins writes that "Blood-feuds and inter-clan warfare are easily interpretable in terms of Hamilton's genetic theory." Dawkins writes that racial prejudice, while not evolutionarily adaptive, "could be interpreted as an irrational generalization of a kin-selected tendency to identify with individuals physically resembling oneself, and to be nasty to individuals different in appearance".[62] Simulation-based experiments in evolutionary game theory have attempted to provide an explanation for the selection of ethnocentric-strategy phenotypes.[63]
