Ethnic Germans

I do believe there is such a thing as white privilege. As a caucasian, I may have benefited without realizing it. It may have been by someone who discriminates but did not against me because of the color of my skin and maybe someone else of a different race came up to that same person with the same manners as me, but that person treated them differently. With that being said though, that does not mean it doesn’t go the others ways as well. White people are most certainly not the only ones who…

important for the development of ethnic relations were different. In China, before 1949, the country was in turmoil where after the 1911 revolution that overthrown the imperial family there was the period of warring states period between the Chinese warlords, foreign invasion from Japan and the civil war between the CCP and the KMT. The ethnic relations were not really at the top of the national agenda when all these chaos were taking place. Therefore, the development of ethnic relations did not…

however, they also have distinct experiences that form their identity as well. In general, the similarities of multiracial individuals include the development of identity around their race, as do other populations. People of Color, Whites and White Ethnic Groups all have the potential to move through stages of racial identity development that include a form of awareness, conflict and tension, integration and social action. For example, Sue and Sue (2013) discuss the Racial/Cultural Identity…

Race and culture are terms that are often used interchangeably, however there are distinct differences between these words. Often, one’s culture is assumed based off their race, yet culture is not always a direct result of race. Race is constant and cannot be changed, and comes with birth. Culture on the other hand, is adopted, and is the result of one’s surroundings, friends, home, and beliefs. While it is true that races are often associated with a certain culture, being of a certain race is…

General Discussion The current studies partially supported my hypotheses. As predicted, White individuals felt more betrayed by low SES plaintiffs than high SES plaintiffs, but only when the plaintiff also had a counter-stereotypical job (i.e., a rap musician). In the case of low SES White rappers, perceptions of racial ingroup betrayal led to a shorter suspension length, by a week, for the policeman involved in an altercation with the plaintiff, compared to high SES White rappers. This result…

Stuart Hall (1997) wrote about the impact of classifying and stereotyping various forms of difference in society. According to Hall (1997), race, like many other forms of difference, is socially constructed (p. 225). As such, individuals’ racial identity varies over place and time (p. 239). Hall (1997) suggests that stereotypes are used to maintain the boundaries between different groups of people because racial boundaries have proven to be fallible (p. 258). In his text, The Spectacle of the…

of caring for the new ethnic immigrant groups” (2). 2. What are some examples of ethnic groups that have experienced this kind of treatment in the past in the United States? – From the beginning of the European settlement, this kind of treatment has taken place in the U.S. because many worry about the, “…economic impoverishment of the newcomers and the fears about them ‘taking away’ jobs from those already in the country or impacting their wages...” (3). In the past, ethnic groups such as…

Acuna declared that the future of Chicano Studies is in jeopardy due to the…

members of a specified race or ethnic group. While it may be clear that ethnic and racial slurs have no place in company communication, there may also be problems with subtle references to “those folks “or” you understand how they 're.” If ethnicity or race truly enters into the matter of your communicating in a drugstore, for instance, there 's generally an aisle for black hair care products then it makes sense to mention customers. The key is that mentioning ethnic and racial groups should be…

Hugh Seton-Watson divides nations into two categorized on the basis of their formation process; old continuous and new nations, which he believes is more relevant distinction than historical and unhistorical typologies. The old continuous nations, France and Britain for instance, are those which developed national identity or national consciousness before the formulation of the doctrine of nationalism. They date back to the 1600s before the French Revolution. The old nations emerged through…
