ANT 2 Lecture 4: Anthro response 2
Document Summary
Race is an illusion due to the fact that white people simply think they are superior to colored people. Some white people truly believe that they were made superior to colored people based on the fact that they are white ad colored people clearly are not. Another reason is that some colored people have different cultures that involve them speaking differently or writing differently or cooking differently or eating different things. This makes some white people believe that the colored people are uneducated and simply not as good as the white people because they do things differently than the white people. Others have supported this with evidence of white people"s craniums being larger than coloreds people therefore the people believe white people have bigger brains and are smarter. Race and culture are related in some aspects and not related in others. I would say white people tend to have a different culture than colored people and vice versa.
