How do you think race as a social construct helps us to understand things like prejudice and discrimination?

Social Studies
1 answer:
kipiarov [429]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Once the race is understood as a social construct, several policies and social issues will be created to regulate the members of that race, and traditionally these policies create segregation and prejudice.

Explanation:

I think that two good examples to illustrate this point is the Jim Crow system in the Southern of the USA, and the eugenics policies executed by the Nazis. Both were influenced by the racial racism that emerged in the late 18th century but became strong in the 19th century. When we analyze their practices, it's clear the idea of segregation, to create a strong race, to avoid the racial mixture, but above all else, to control races considered degenerated or dangerous, avoiding their spread. This happened with black people on the US (Jim Crow system), and with the Jews and several other social/racial minorities in Europe under the shadow of the Nazis.
