Watch the “White Privilege” ( Tim Wise- The Pathology of White) video and at least two other videos in this module and answer the following question. The videos highlight the topics of race and colorism in cultures such as: America, Latin America, and India, etc.

The theme that is presented in this video is persuasive. The reason is that the speaker is giving a proper demonstration of racism in the USA. The speaker is involved in demonstrating proper facts about the black and white people of that country. In some parts of the video, the speaker was also using an augmented theme when other speakers are raising questions on in-equality for the black people. The speaker is giving proper information about the situation with the black people, then according to this information, the people were rising some important questions related to this problem.

What were the themes presented in the video clips you watched? How did the individual make sense of their own racial identity in relation to their other identities?

In that video, the individual is raising some important questions related to equality with the black people. In America, it can be noted that black people are always suffered due to the cruelty of white people. In that country, black people are not giving proper rights. This is the reason why some black people may choose crime and harm other peoples. On the basis of such action during the video, the individuals were rising a lot of questions. By asking such questions from the speaker they are able to know what kind of steps they have to take to resolve the issue of these persons.

What or how have you felt growing up or living in the United States as a

From the past, it can be seen that the government and people are not giving proper rights to black people. Due to this these people are always facing a lot of problems and unable to stand up and fight for their rights. From the growing age, these people are not given proper rights and kept separated from white people. The government of this country is just promoting racism in their country. Due to this, they were always suffered from growing age.

What have you experienced or felt about race and racism in the U.S.?

I have experienced racism many times in my life. I have seen many movies that were based on racism and promoting it in that country. Their government is not doing anything positive for the betterment of their future. Due to this, they faced a lot of trouble and unable to fulfill their demands in an effective way. In police stations, there is police brutality at the peak, and the black persons are affected badly. This condition was not acceptable to me and I felt extremely bad about these actions by the police members. This action also put a bad image on the other mind and people were not satisfied with the government.

What messages did you get about your racial group?  What messages did you get about other groups?

I have received many messages from the racial group and the other group. The racial group was extremely positive for white people. They said that we have no trouble from the white people we just want peace. We just wanted to change our bad image. Through this many problems can be solved easily.  The message from the other group was really contradicted. They seem extremely terrified of the black people and also don't wanted to hurt them because of humanity. In them, there are also some people that are kind and some are also cruel but it is unfair if the government treated all of them like the same.

What other social identity groups do you belong to? (i.e. gender, class, ethno-religious identity)?

I belong to the white Christian group and living in the USA. I am male and belong to the middle class of the country. It is not the matter what class do you belong it is just about humanity. I would say that if white people were treated worse then it is also not a good action from the higher authorities. I every citizen of this country is treated with equality then there will be complete peace. This can be done by the government that they must have to take positive actions to resolve these problems from their country. Just in case the government has to give proper rights to every citizen.

How has your racial identity intersected with your other identities? How have you made sense of your race in relation to class or gender or sexuality?

According to the given scenario in the video, I have a sense of my race-related to my class and gender. I would say that race doesn't define your personality it's your actions. There are some black people in the world that are showing noble behavior with white people. On the other hand, there are also some white people that have evil minds and hurting different people. Therefore, it is not a matter of race only. The main thing is that your personality. I would say that we just have to judge the people on the basis of their nature and personality not according to their race.
