Why do you think race is so important to people.

Answer:

Because Race Matters.

Race matters because it is an imperfect proxy for racism and racial discrimination.

Clearly, race doesn’t matter as a genetic concept. The idea that race is important because of a notion of genetic homogeneity has been thoroughly debunked.[29] Furthermore, race, as a scientific concept, never rested on firm scientific foundation.[29] Biologically, there are no pure, distinct races. Which is not to say that there may not be bio-chemical differences among individuals. Some of those differences might be closely associated with groups that we categorize by race. For instance, in a study of 1,256 female and 1,603 male patients, women had more rapid decreases in CD4+ T cell counts than men and non-whites had slower decreases than whites.[1, 13]

If race does not distinguish humans from one another genetically, then why does it matter? Several studies document that "race" has been shaped by cultural, political, ideological and legal functions in society. That is, "race" is a social construct; something that has meaning only because the society gives it meaning.[14] Such construct is no less powerful than a biological construct. Once society conveys meaning that meaning has impact and consequences.

Inchcape Rock is a popular poem by Robert Southey about the Inchcape Rock Legend, a reef which is situated in the North Sea, close to the coastal region of Angus in Scotland. The Inchcape Rock is known for its infamy as causation for shipwreck. This poem by Robert Southey revolves around the famous folktale of an Abbot, a monk who placed a bell on the reef to issue warning to seamen and seafarers about the impending danger during storms. According to the folktale, whenever the bell used to ring, the seafarers used to bless the Abbot’s wisdom and thank him for saving them from danger. But a sea robber named Ralph cut down the bell to earn money and treasures from the ships that fatally crashed against the rock. However, a day came when Ralph’s vessel too encounters a storm and crashes against the rock. This is when he hears death bells ringing.

This is probably more than two paragraphs, so I suggest taking what you like best out of it. I just wanted to write enough that way you would have enough for your assignment. I included the main idea and events. Have a wonderful day!

Against nature in line 15, the author begins a narrative about an experience she had in nature. how does the author use this nar
nikklg [1K]
This narrative engages the reader because it is such a change from the list that precedes it.

The reader moves from a list in lines 1-10 and then moves into the author's personal experience of tachycardia. This engages the reader because it is immediately interesting, and the reader wants to continue reading to find out how this attack connects to the larger theme of nature.

Furthermore, the language Oates uses features clear imagery -- we can easily imagine her lying there, on the ground. The effect is a powerful one and immediately interesting to the reader.
