I personally did not get a lot out of today’s lecture. Maybe I was day dreaming about being outside in the 78 degree weather in February. Whatever it might have been, I know we discussed the impact color and race. I found it interesting that you were able to pull up a website and it showed the different races and classifications. Even though it is 2018 and segregation is no longer a thing, there is still the issues of blacks and whites. There might not be signs that say black restroom and white restroom, and blacks do not have to sit in the back of the bus. However, that does not stop people from living into the stigma of race. If everyone was able to follow/ accept laws there wouldn’t have been a need for signs to segregate people in the past. We carry around the common sense of race, but there is a lot more to race than what people see on the outside.
