Professor dr. XXXX XXXX Student: XXXXX XXXX XXXXx Essay question: Is America a post racial society? The keywords in the question are: America, post racial, society
My definition(s) of the keyword(s) are: . America is a country in North America, which is very big. . Post racial: The affix post which means something should be ended.Ex: post graduation. .Society: Society is a agglomeration from people, who have several things in common. My thesis is: The race miscegenation in America was a problem for a very long time, even if speaking about racism and discrimination there is always a taboo. Main body paragraph 1 Topic When we think about America, automatically we think about the actually President Obama, who is the first Black President, first African American President and first mixed-race President. That would be normal, speaking about another country, where racism and discrimination are not so strong as in America. Example (s) Brazil, Portugal, for example, present more tolerance between races. Main body paragraph 2 Topic But that does not mean that there are not racism and discrimination in these countries, because there are. Maybe it should be difficult to speak about racism without knowing the difference between the two words : racism and discrimination. The dictionary reference gives us three important definitions of racism: Examples (s) "1-a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others. 2-a policy, system of government, etc.,based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination. 3- hatred or intolerance of another race or other races ." After having analyzed these definitions we can reflect about the question: Is America a post racial society? Answering this question is not easy, when we remember the most significant problem with racism and discrimination in America. The difference of the social stratum in America is so significant when we look about the economic standard of which race. We can see these differences are so visible, this makes difficult to see America as a post racial society.

Main body paragraph 3 Another way, when we compare America as a picture, which we see on television about the first black child, who could go at school with another white children, then we can think about this question and say that America is a pos-racial society. Whereas the situation from racism in America was to much bad for long time ago. So many black people were killed from another intolerants people. Another factors were the mark from the racist society. Examples (s) There were not restaurants, where black and white people could be together and there were separated School for the different races.
