1. After reading the text and looking over the lecture I was not surprised to learn about how race and life worked together in conjunction with inequality. I would not consider myself a minority or someone who has faced racial inequality. I grew up in primarily sheltered neighborhood and was not aware really of what went on around me. However, as I aged I grew to see how even things simple things like school or TV fostered racial thoughts. I believe that our ideas about race still come from the same social areas of life. Nothing is perfect and will not always change. A TV show that has racial slurs or stereotypes could still air on TV and effect todays youth. Personally, I believe ideas about race in my life come from my grandparents also.
