This paper aims at finding register shifts (Halliday & Hassan, 1976: 22) between source texts (English anti-Iranian movies) and target texts (the subtitled versions of the original movies in Persian) in terms of anti-Iranian discourse. The paper's main question is what attitudinal shifts have been made by the translators in subtitling anti-Iranian discourse in three movies: 300, Not without my Daughter, and Argo. The study's methodological approach is placed within the framework of Descriptive Translation Studies (Toury, 2012), in the school of Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough 1985;1992), and it is based on Appraisal Theory (Martin & White, 2005). Each of the movies were analyzed based on the appraisal theory in order to discover the linguistic attitudinal markers that showed an anti-Iranian stance taken by non-Iranian characters towards the Iranian characters. Then, the Persian subtitles of these evaluative attitudinal markers were also analyzed. The results indicated that these attitudinal markers were intensified, modified, or kept unchanged by the translators. In most cases, the attitudinal markers had been kept unchanged. Such tendency could be an indication of either translators' unawareness of such stance-takings in movies or their intentional attempt at revealing how several Hollywood movies try to depict a negative picture of Iranian race to the world.

Far from being a past or obsolete phenomenon, racism is branching out and spreading in many forms today. The scope of the concept of racism remains, however, difficult to demarcate. So is the differentiation of this term from other notions that designate similar attitudes, behaviors and practices. This paper discusses some issues of current interest in relation to racism, starting with the link between the terms "racism" and »race«, and debating the current distancing and even separation of the two concepts, despite the linguistic link. The paper also analyzes various definitions and perspectives on racism. Some content issues are approached, such as the fact that racism is, as contrary to some shared attitudes such as xenophobia, both an ideology or theory and a set of exclusionary and marginalizing practices. Furthermore, different forms of racism are addressed, from 'classical', biological racism, which resorted to biological differentiations, to the forms of racism that characterize the contemporary world, which emphasize cultural differences and/or include racist views and practices embedded in social values, norms and even in the functioning of society. These present-day forms of racism have been referred to by various expressions, such as cultural racism, differential racism, symbolic racism, racism without races, neo-racism, and institutional racism. Some conclusions are drawn from these delimitations, discussions and reflections, such as that maybe it might be more accurate to speak of racisms in the plural, given that the hypothesis of multiple racisms is increasingly confirmed by practice, as well as the fact that not only multiple racisms but also multiple dogmata should be considered in order to have a comprehensive overview of exclusion, marginalization, oppression, exploitation or discrimination.

Languages, the way that is spoken have always been a distinctive matter in terms of accent, race, and/gender. In the paper, I discuss whether colors were/are means of racism1 or in any sort of discrimination in the English language and try to cultivate the hypothesis throughout the research with examples on the basis of words including colors black and white and I compare my findings with their equivalents in Turkish language and make a general assessment of the situation at hand; thus, showing whether there could be a deliberate color association in the English language, manipulating for a change in the way people think about objects, events or others. Even though this is majorly a study of psycholinguistics, I limit my assessments on the psychological aspects of this research to the minimum, hence I do not have a degree in psychology, allowing me to make professional assessments, but I focus more on the linguistic and translational aspects of the topic in general. However, the interdisciplinarity of this field allows us to make assumptions or claims. The main questions of this paper are: "Could color black or the word black be indicating an ongoing pattern of disfiguration in the linguistic discourse?", "What do we see when we compare these words with their equivalents in another language system, is there a pattern in the target language too? How to discuss the if so's and if nots?

Race and racism are some of the most momentous contemporary issues of our time. The impact of racial classification and racism can be felt by all people from different walks of life. It is one of the most determining element of a person's life in areas of status and employment, among other factors. The perception of race and its consequent product of racism has for decades being the center of controversy as this has perpetuated itself in every layer of the structure of a society. The discrimination a group or a community face due to their skin colour is something inexplicable and immeasurable to what they have endured and continue to endure regardless of how rapidly the society develops. Modern society, even though having undergone various stages of evolution, has failed in its egregious attempts to prevent and eliminate racism from its roots due to its weak perception that a person's race is what defines their worth. In this context, this paper aims to study the different races and the impact of racism on people in a more comprehensive manner. It throws light on the history of race and the different types of races present in the world. The primary purpose is to study the impact of race on our country and how it has affected people in its aspects of racism.
