question 1

Prompt 2

   For many years race has been defined for your colored, nationality or ethnicity. In the video we saw two weeks ago we were shown that there was not scientific way of proving your race, and that this was just a human ideal and vision of the people that were different from them. No one can hide that actually your race back in the days determined wether you were going to work or rule. This being the case of spanish conquers coming to america and settling, after being settle they start conquering the civilizations and bringing slaves from africa to work on fields. So did the british people did with the slaves from africa, the idea that this race was a inferior start establishing.

  The next decades black people had to fight for their rights and the establishments of a set of laws that say that everyone is born free and equal. However still now a days your race will determine your privilege, power and perspective of the world. This is because in my country i was born in a certain community that has wealth and that has influence in big things, a race color that is known for having wealthiness. Not a color that is known for having very little food, money or influence. But still i would say that in a country as Colombia this race privilege are not as notorious as in the United States.
