A couple follow up questions if you don't mind me asking...1. Have you ever met your great grandparents or do you know who they are? 2. If you had the chance to take a DNA test on finding your specific African ethnic background would you do it? -Mr. Navarro]]> 2021-11-08 19:45:12 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876189800 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876329695 Vincent Fang]]> 2021-11-08 20:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876329695 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876331372 I can relate to it. Seeing the people of my community get attacked for just solely their appearance. Not just my community, but other communities as well. People are attacked for no reason besides the sole purpose of it being "fun" to them - Angela Li]]> 2021-11-08 20:49:42 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876331372 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876335442 To me this means that it isn't necessarily enforced that the race of a person can matter to another person, rather it is more built off of how a person was raised. Not everyone thinks differently solely off of race. However, this doesn't mean that this isn't common. -Preston Fan]]> 2021-11-08 20:51:55 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876335442 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876336090 What about what you see on social media? Does seeing people of your own race struggle because of their skin color affect you? (Brie J.)]]> 2021-11-08 20:52:17 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876336090 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876336453 2021-11-08 20:52:28 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876336453 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876337104 I agree that race is a social construct because many people see white as the superior race and any other race that isn’t white can’t compare with them. I wonder why race is seen in this way?]]> 2021-11-08 20:52:48 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876337104 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876337830 I think this is a fair first assessment of race for someone that hasn't had an education on race. Although its not a bad first judgement, I felt ike the author of this could have delved deeper.

Or do you choose not to know? -Oscar Martinez ]]> 2021-11-08 20:53:35 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876338522 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876338901 I agree with this and a lot of the times I wonder what’s the real reason behind this? What do white people have that colored people dont? - Viri Garcia ]]> 2021-11-08 20:53:48 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876338901 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876339648 I’ve also heard from many African Americans that they don’t know the roots of their ancestry so they have a Black culture, something that other races don’t have. I wonder how the many different African cultures blended to create what culture that many African American people celebrate today. David Kim]]> 2021-11-08 20:54:13 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876339648 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876340054 I agree with this because people can categorize you in a certain racial group just based off your phenotypes and can assume stereotypes about you based on what group you were assumed to be a part of. During the race diagnostic, I was surprised to see a lot of people be part of groups I didn’t think they would be part of. -Aaron Wu]]> 2021-11-08 20:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876340054 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876340592 Since you personally haven't been affected by race, have you seen others that are discriminated against due to the color of their skin? - McKinna Lincoln]]> 2021-11-08 20:54:42 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876340592 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876340713 Thank you for sharing your reflection and opinion. What you're mentioning is a specific part of how race can affect your community and society in general. Did you experience any of this first hand to be writing about it? Or did you hear about this from the news or social media?

We all have a race and/or look a certain race, and we get treated differently because of it. I think that appearance, like our height and the way we dress affects how other people see us as well. -Jasmine Lai]]> 2021-11-08 20:55:04 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876341217 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876341311 Thank you for sharing your reflection - especially during COVID, a lot of violence was centered towards Asian American individuals, all because COVID originated from China. So thank you for bringing light to this.

Some people think that this race is superior and this race isn’t but in reality we are all the same. I wonder why race is seen in this way? -Stanley Zhu ]]> 2021-11-08 20:55:52 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876342716 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876342775 I can relate to this statement because I have witnessed people being discriminated and assaulted based on their skin color. Because Covid-19 came from China, a lot of elderly Asian folks have been targeted by many people for "bringing" Covid-19 to the US. Racism is prevalent in society because that is what the foundation our country has been built on. - Sunnie Lee]]> 2021-11-08 20:55:53 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876342775 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876344686 As a person who is asian as well, this quote connects with me. Although I have never experience the asian hate crime, I have seen vids of other asian people getting assaulted.

I remember reading an article about an old Chinese lady in Chinatown being beaten by a white man. The woman was able to defend herself in the end but it should never have occurred in the first place.

Some people get hate on there race and treated differently. It affects most people everyday life on not getting the same treatment as others.

I think that's why Ethnic Studies is a class for people who want to learn more about it.

We learned during the race diagnostic that sometimes judging someone by their phenotypes doesn't always work and that it just gives out a general idea of their background. -Aaron Wu]]> 2021-11-08 21:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876365062 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876365162 maybe see people around you. see how it affects them by their race.-Luis Castaneda]]> 2021-11-08 21:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876365162 https://padlet.com/navarroa12/dyc6acx8xho2oc14/wish/1876365702 As an Asian as well, this quote connects to me.
