Abstract
- This article presents a study which analyzed how the mainstream and African-American press framed the public debate on racial profiling before and after September 11, 2001. Key words and themes emphasized in both editorial and news stories are examined. The term racial profiling is generally used to describe the practice of stopping and inspecting people who are passing through public places where the reason for the stop is a statistical profile of the detainee's race or ethnicity.
