Race and ethnicity are a big issue in America to this day. Race and ethnicity to me is basically a
culture or religion that a person has originated from. Anywhere you go in this world, Europe, china,
south America or even north America,there are mixed races and elasticities in each area and all of the
societies are affected by it. Society is affected by races and elasticities because of racism. I think that
racism should not even exist just because a person disagrees with one others religion or because they
don't like color or even culture.
People in every country are killed everyday because of race and ethnicity In the United States,
everyone see's obvious traits as black or white, not Caucasian or African American. Not only are people
just racist or prejudice about race and ethnicity , but they are sexist against male and female. Not to
mention that religious people are even put down everyday.
All of this affects any society anywhere. Nothing has changed race or ethnicity yet. Honestly I
don't think it ever will change. It could get worse resulting into more war. To some people , race does
not matter. I personally agree with that. But as far as a shared culture it does matter. There are some
religions that I do not believe in. AS for a family that practices a certain religion that is what they
believe and nobody can take what they believe and throw it away. Even though somebody doesnt agree
with the same things, does that mean tat we should downgrade that person just because they have a
different characteristic or because of what they believe in?
