g-Race Review the PBS website RACE The Power
of an Illusion as you prepare for this
discussion. This site offers many examples of how
the science of human difference contradicts
ordinary ideas of race. As we see in the readings
and in this website, 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 How has race been constructed in the
United States? Provide a specific example of how
race continues to be socially constructed. What
groups are harmed, and benefit, from these
constructions of race? For more classes
