The path for this race has already been set for us through God’s word. Others‚ such as non-believers and those who have strayed from the path of the Lord‚ are running the race of their own will and have chose to follow

When I decided to take this course‚ I felt that it would help me to better understand the power of race in our society. Having attended high school in a small‚ primarily white town‚ I was not exposed to heavy race issues until I began my college career.
