Exploring Race with Videos
Essential Questions:
- How does race/racism affect our lives and society?
- How do I participate in and/or am affected by systematic Oppression/inequality?
Please add the following 3 terms to your Ethnic Studies Glossary
- Implicit bias: negative associations that people unknowingly hold. They are expressed automatically, without conscious awareness.
- White fragility: discomfort and defensiveness on the part of a white person when confronted by information about racial inequality and injustice.
- White supremacy: white people are seen as central and inherently better than POC.

Race, Ethnicity, Nationality, and Jelly Beans
The first video is a straightforward, student made video that explains the difference between race, ethnicity, and nationality using jelly beans!
The second video explains a bit about the history or race and how it is a social construct (made up by people, not biological).
