1 CHAPTER 12 RACE AND ETHNICITY CHAPTER SUMMARY Race is a complex and often misunderstood concept. Race is a reality in the sense that inherited physical characteristics distinguish one group from another. However, race is a myth in the sense of one race being superior to another and of there being pure races. Race is so arbitrary that scientists cannot agree upon how many races there are. The idea of race is powerful reality in our everyday lives. Race refers to inherited biological characteristics, while ethnicity refers to cultural ones. Ethnicity includes foods, clothing, language, music etc. A minority group is defined as one singled out for unequal treatment by members of the dominant group. Both race and ethnicity can be a basis for unequal treatment. The extent of ethnic identification depends on the relative size of the group, its power, broad physical characteristics, and the amount of discrimination. Ethnic work is the process of constructing an ethnic identity. Prejudice refers to an attitude and discrimination to unfair treatment. Individual discrimination is the negative treatment of one person by another, while institutional discrimination is discrimination built into society s social institutions. Prejudice can be learned based on the association with certain groups. Psychological theories explain the origin of prejudice in terms of stress frustration that gets directed toward scapegoats and in terms of the development of authoritarian personalities. Functionalists emphasize how different social environments affect levels of prejudice. Conflict theorists look at the exploitation of racial-ethnic divisions by those in power, and symbolic interactionists stress how labels create selective perception and the self-fulfilling prophecies. Dominant groups typically practice one of five policies toward minority groups: genocide, population transfer, internal colonialism, segregation, assimilation, or pluralism. We can see many examples throughout history both in the U.S. and globally that demonstrate these patterns of intergroup relations. The major ethnic groups in the United States, ranked from largest to smallest, are European Americans, Latinos, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Native Americans. Each minority group faces different issues. African Americans are increasingly divided into middle and lower classes, with very different experiences. Latinos are divided by country of origin. The well-being of Asian Americans varies by country of origin. For Native Americans, the issues are poverty, nationhood, and settling treaty obligations. The primary issues that dominate race-ethnic relations today are immigration, affirmative action, and how to develop a truly multicultural society.
