Race International Perspectives Big Question: How is race constructed around the world?

In Chapter 5, we learned how race is constructed in Brazil. This is just one example of how race is viewed within a culture out of the thousands of cultures found on our planet. For this assignment, you will research how race is viewed in a culture different from your own. In this case, the sources for your research may vary from traditional library research. Popular racial perceptions are often better encoded in music or art than in official histories or government documents. Anything from movies to music to online blogs can tell you how people perceive race.Instructions: Share the findings of your research in the form of a brief written essay (or a collection of images) on your class online discussion forum. How is race constructed in the culture you examined? What kind of research did you do, or what sources did you examine, to come to this conclusion? In the comment fields, discuss how your findings, and the findings of your fellow classmates, differ from Western perceptions of race.
