Although John Berger and Anthony Appiah discuss very different topics in their essays Ways of Seeing and race‚ they are very similar in several ways. I found that the two have similar writing styles. Although Berger’s is a little bit more complex than Appiah’s‚ I found that they both write using extremely long sentences and difficult vocabulary. Aside from writing styles‚ I also found Berger and Appiah similar in their views. Both seem to go against the normal view of society. For example‚ in

In the film Race an Illusion‚ the social concept of race is evaluated. The government needed race to justify slavery and segregation of humans based off of biological differences.

Forensic anthropology is concerned with the employment of the scientific standards and principles of anthropology in order to investigate crime. It is the unfortunate task of the forensic anthropologist to make use of race as a means of classifying human remains on a near daily basis

about race relations‚ however they have been short-lived‚ and have not led to a greater degree of progress towards racial equality.

Race should not be considered in a social matter‚ such as job interviews‚ events‚ and any other occasions of interaction. Race is simply biological. It is a part of them‚ yet to others‚ it shouldn’t matter what color of skin or where a person origins are set unless it affects a situation or is needed to be addressed. In the modern world‚ race cannot go unnoticed‚ but people do not have to let it influence the way they act towards a person. In the essay‚ “What is Race?” by Victor M. Fernandez‚ the

social class over race and gender is supported by the realization that socioeconomic disadvantage is in reality a present handicap‚ rather than an intergeneration one and it can be assessed at an individual level and not necessarily in aggregate (Magnus & Mick‚ 2000).

According to Realists‚ no two individuals are the same and therefore the ensuing natural propensity creates categories for placing
