• SOC 308 Week 1 DQ 1 Constructing Race
• Constructing Race. Review the PBS website RACE
  The Power of an Illusion as you prepare for this
  discussion. This site offers many examples of how

  ordinary ideas of race.

  race is socially constructed, a system of thought
  and human behavior not directly based on nature,
  instead resulting from social ideas and
  practices. In other words, race exists because
  people believe it is real and important.
• Please respond to the following
• a. How has race been constructed in the United
  States?
• b. Provide a specific example of how race
  continues to be socially constructed.
• c. What groups are harmed, and benefit, from

• By the mid-twentieth century, European immigrant

  Today, Blacks, Native Americans, Asians,
  Hispanics, and non-white Europeans interact with
  the white majority in a system of race that can
  be broadly described as comprising whites and
  non-whites, whites and racial minorities, or
  whites and people of color. While unique ethnic
  groups share a culture in which ethnic conflict
  is present, including pressures to assimilate,
  the broader culture also celebrates the unique
  culture of many ethnic groups in America.

• Final Paper
• A sociologist must be able to analyze racial and
  ethnic differences in different national
  contexts. For example, in the U.S., we tend to
  think of race in a particular way. In order to
  develop this skill, select and analyze a society
  demonstrating ethnic stratification and conflict,
  including evidence of prejudice and
  discrimination. In addition to a description of
  the selected society, include an analysis of
  similarities and differences as compared to the
  United States.
• While the following example can be modified to
  suit your needs, this outline is likely to result
  in a high quality Final Paper
