Question

I require assistance.
I am supposed to write a paper on things that the United States has had problems with, but hasn't been fixed.
Here are what I chose:
Social inequality. (Racism and prejudice.)
The education system.
I need specific historical examples to back up my answers.
For social inequality I chose these examples:
Mark Carson sexual orientation was gay, and due to this he was brutally murdered. (Shot to death.)
On August 25, 2010, a New York taxi driver was stabbed after a passenger asked if he was Muslim.
Hate crimes based on Religion/Sexual orientation.

I need help finding examples on the education system. Thanks.
