Typically in today’s world one race or ethnic group will target another race or ethnic group causing the bullying to spread through the genes because it is something that had been taught.

my work, and my passion for discussions and topics around race and equality in America. TASS is known for its studies on ethnic backgrounds, and being Hispanic and bringing that perspective to the table is something that can help me connect more with the learning objectives of the seminars. Furthermore, through TASS I can also gain meaningful knowledge on the history of ethnic backgrounds in the United States. My passion and drive to learn can make me an active and energetic participant. I…

2. Share why it touched your heart and mind. This passage touched my heart and mind because as an immigrant it is difficult to hear how they labeled immigrants depending on what ethnicity they were. Their ethnicity depended on who was going to get a job and what job they would do and many of them hated each other because they were competing against each other and it all depended on what race they were. Many immigrants were against each other and talked down to each other using derogatory words…

“The economy is collapsing more or less everywhere, but only in Germany does the process achieve its maximum effect on people’s spirits.”- Heinrich Mann (Document 10) Germany was left in a state of devastation after WWI. However just because the war was officially over for them, did not mean the fighting had stopped in Germany. The entire World was in bad shape after the terrible war, but Mann explains how it seemed that nothing could go right for the Germans and with each blow the people’s hope…

Coming Together To Make A Change As I read “Black Men and Public Space” by Brent Staples, I couldn’t help but think of how many people are fighting and protesting against the leading republican presidential nominee Donald J. Trump. While Trump’s target is the Mexican immigrant, it directly affects all foreign and colored people of America. He’s setting a horrible example for his followers, letting them believe it’s okay to use racial profiling and stereotypes. Like many colored people, Staples…

Statement of intent: I am going to argue that racism is an ongoing cycle that is preventing us from progressing and developing our world. Everyday we look around us at the many faces, yet all we see is multiple races. No matter if you are tall short or thin, you are judged on the pigment of your skin. We have become a nation built upon discrimination, where we are all victims to our own species. Our very own spirits and souls have been manipulated into believing that all of mankind is made…

Through social interaction, culture is developed by certain behaviors, ethics, and customs in groups and societies. People can find a sense of belonging or identity in their race, religion, or community in which they share similar beliefs and values, or they can neglect their culture because it isolates them from different surrounding cultures. Examples of texts that demonstrate the controversy on culture are “Christa” by Sigrid Nunez, “Mother Tongue” by Amy Tan, “A More Perfect Union” by Barack…

Singapore is a cosmopolitan society. We embrace different races and religious beliefs. This sets us apart from many other countries. This is why we need to take into consideration of social theories such as by Karl Marx as well Emile Durkheim in order for us to better understand our own society and thereafter improve it to protect our strong social fabric. In this essay, I would discuss about the idea of division of labour brought forth by Marx and Durkheim. Karl Marx theorizes about division of…

Race and ethnicity are two important components that gives humans identity. Sometimes race and ethnicity can be confused to be same or used interchangeably.

It is determined from our appearances such as our skin color, hair, nose shape, lip size and other physical characteristics. Ethnicity is our cultural identity. Ethnicity can be determined from our language, tradition, religion, customs, and much…
