Humanity has been enduring an ongoing battle for centuries: the strained relations among the races. Despite efforts to put the past behind‚ signs remain at nearly every juncture that there still exists a strong sense of racial dissension. While many Caucasians do not see the problem being as severe as it is represented‚ African-Americans angrily reply that the lighter skinned race has not had to endure such prejudice and‚ therefore‚ cannot begin to identify with the situation.

Running the Race I believe running the race means following God’s path set for my life. God gives each of us a choice to follow him or to choose to follow our own path throughout the course of our lives. Christian’s choose to run the race with a finish line in God’s kingdom. 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.
