Agenda for 1/6 - Gold

Like height, race (skin color) is a spectrum. Where you draw the line is arbitrary.

Where does white end and black begin?
1. The "difficult conversation" about Race...?

2. If race is a social construction, can we just make a new race in America? The US Census reveals history of U.S. racial identity

3. So if race is a social construction (created and perpetuated by society), so are our ideas (stereotypes) about people of different races. What stereotypes must black men endure?

4. Race - Keynote
5. "Race" may not be a biological reality, but what about "white privilege"...a media analysis of the concept.
