Week10 : Race_and_Ethnicity Heo SeonYeong 허 선영

1.summary

 Racial and ethnicity are different. Race is usually classified according to morphological features such as skin color and facial characteristics. Also, race is usually classified by another person. This is controversial about social identity. However, although ethnicity is associated with race, it is not a physical trait but a social trait shared by mankind. Therefore, they are classified according to nationality, religious beliefs, shared language, and common culture.
 Humans were divided into races from ancient Egypt. These early attempts developed with European imperialism and colonization of the world. Many of the 19th century natural scientists argue that race is an objective and spontaneous division of mankind. They also say there is a strong relationship between the biological species and other human phenomena. Therefore, race is a valid scientific category for describing and predicting individual and group behavior. Tribes reflect group differences in physical characteristics, moral character and intelligence.
 Some researchers and historians argue that various standards for racial discrimination are for the benefit of European Americans. As a result, the European American becomes the owner and sees African slaves as economic value. African slaves also become slaves to their children and increase the wealth of their European owners.
Prejudice is judging about something beforehand. These prejudices can be judged without real experience. Generally the negative view of an individual or group based on a social stereotype. However, prejudice should not be considered as discrimination. Prejudice can lead to discrimination, but it is definitely two different things. The bias is the result of hindsight. Developments can be made through explicit negative interactions with groups with fixed concepts. In general, prejudice and bias are considered negative. Sociologists, however, argue that these biases and biases promote adaptation for humans to survive.
 Racism thinks race determines human ability. Certain races are inherently prejudiced against being superior or inferior to others. Individuals are treated differently according to their racial classification. Racism appears at a personal level, when an employer fires someone because of race. Structureally, Asian-Americans are organized to excessively pursue leadership positions. Apart from this, racism is also seen in a variety of cultural and historical situations.


2.interesting point

 I used to think that the terms were similar to prejudice, bias and discrimination. This opportunity has allowed me to differentiate between prejudice, bias and discrimination. It was easily understood and interesting that what was made up of hindsight was biased and what was done without misgivings was biased.


3.discussion point
 Do you think you can get racial discrimination because you are a minority in your country? So how could some Europeans who moved to other countries and had only a few within the country control the country?
