I say you need to stand up for yourself but not in a physical manner.That will only cause you problem cause teacher will sue you for assualt.I say go above the teacher and get them like that it is safe and you can't get in trouble for it.

The professor is always going to think that they are better than you.If you don't do something you won't get anything done.If it doesn't effect your grades in the class don't bother it though.

I think as a "brown person" that you need to consider the fact that the professor has not realized that he/she is doing something you consider wrong. Some times I think we get to sensitive and look for the  slightest sign of racism. 

You spelt "you're" wrong.

I suggest you slap the professor and claim it was an emotional defensive response to ridiculous levels of ignorance.

WOW.....Now that's funny.

I don't think it's the right thing to do..........But it's funny. LOL :D

my spelling in the title was intentional......OMG!

professors like this usually <b>want to be humiliated by their lack of knowledge.</b> dont act ignorant towards them just because they think your un able to learn. just laugh at them and prove them wrong by staying on top of your game

The professors want to be humiliated by their lack of knowledge? No.

 how do you know he's picking on you because of your skin color?  You should consider all the possibilities before making an accusation such as that one. Maybe try a little harder on your work, study more, ask friends for help. Regardless you should let the professor know how you feel and your opinion, perhaps in a non-confrontational manner, and hopefully the way he acts towards you will change. 

Good luck!

well also if you can not spell you're right as a college student maybe you should not be talking.

you are defending your master as a trained dog would do ...you know no better....please read "the miseducation of the negroe " by woodson.  then if you can still criticize the quickness of my hands......you are misfortunately lost to those 90%

You should not take a violent approach. Verbal assault is not good either. I suggest that you do all that you can so that he has no reason but to give you an A on research papers and other assignments. Maybe you should ask the professor what his reasoning is for giving you the grade and criticism he gave, so that you may improve upon it. Usually, this is all that it takes. By asking him face to face, he should realize that you care about the grade that he gives you, and so he might be more willing to help you if you approach him that way.But if he gives you low grades, and gives no explanation, then you need to go to someone you believe can help you solve the problem, such as a professor of a similar subject, or the head of that department.

Tell them of how you have work very hard in this class, and are not receiving any positive grading for it. Show them an example, like your research paper that he criticized you on and graded low. I'm sure that if they briefly look over it, and you worked hard on it, they will agree in your favor and will address the problem.

If, however, you feel the problem is still not solved after talking with the head of the department, then maybe you need to go to someone even higher up who is not only unbiased but also as a strong sense of equality. I'm sure that by finding someone like this, you will be able to find a solution to prove your mettle.

Yeah, it may seem like tattling, but would you rather be the A student who whines or the C student who let others push him over?

I hope this helps you out. I really don't appreciate situations like this, especially when the minor student (ie. black, brown, female) is not given the credit they deserve, especially when others within the class might need the criticism more than the minor student.

Wow it always has to be about skin color. Give it a rest. In this day and age NO ONE conciders you unintelligent just because of skin color any more. That's why this country is riddled with doctors and lawyers and CEO's who are the same color as you.  Honey it isn't your skin color. Why does it always boil down to just because you're black you think everyone who doesn't give you an easy ride is because they are racist.  Try a little harder on your work. Violence solves nothing and will more than likely get you booted out of school. While I do agree it is fun to verbally lash out at someone, you better make dang sure that prorfessor is racist and had it out for you, before you go and do something you may regret.

you people are the scum that walk on this uninhabitable enviroment......... I clicked on this radom blog to entertain myself.... You all fail...Goodbye
