March 6: In-Class Writing – Serena, Abelle, and Wendy

In Zack’s essay “More Than Skin Deep”, she discussed the skin color, because some people determines the race of other individual or group. According to Zack she mentioned that “skin color has a lot to do with race, but skin color differences are not socially neutral variations in the same way that differences in hair or eye color often are.” (Pg. 145) Zack also stated that some people still have the discrimination of skin color, and the combinations of genes that are more frequent in each of the major racial groups are not present in all members of those groups. And people in the USA always have the issue with the black and white in their history, so black and white have the conflict in the past and future. The blacks are still fighting for their rights, and the whites have always had the upper hand or “white priviledge”. Our group focused on both how skin colors are treated and also the fact that black and white conflicts still exists.
