Chapter 11: Race and Ethnicity

Are we living in a Post-Racial (colorblind) society? Research indicates that those who “ignore” race are the most racially biased Race affects a person’s place within the stratification system Wealth Life Expectancy Drop-out Rates Home Ownership Prison Rates Victims of Crime The Unequal Opportunity Race: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX_Vzl-r8NY

Race as a Social Construct  Race is not biologically real - it is socially and politically constructed via law, public policy and social practices. Society socially constructs which racial differences are deemed important Race: The Power of an Illusion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8MS6zubIaQ

Racial and Ethnic groups Racial Group: group set apart because of obvious physical differences Ethnic Group: group set apart primarily because of national origin or distinctive cultural patterns Minority Group: subordinate group whose members have significantly less control of power over their own lives

Prejudice and Discrimination Prejudice: Negative attitude towards an entire group of people Racism: belief that one race is supreme and others are innately superior Discrimination: denial of opportunities and equal rights to individuals and groups based on some type of arbitrary bias Jane Elliot’s A Class Divided: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ml7eEklNwNE

Stereotypes Stereotypes- unreliable generalizations about all members of a group that do not recognize individual differences Ernestine Johnson’s spoken word: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tN4Zulagb8

Psychology of Racism White Privilege- rights or immunities granted to people as benefit of favor simply because they are white http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/09/02/jose-joe-job- discrimination_n_5753880.html People will internalize their position in the social structure based on their racial positionality Doll Experiment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybDa0gSuAcg
