Is the US a Post-Racial Is the US a Post-Racial SocietySociety
YES◦ Racial categories are
no longer recognized, by government agencies, as having scientific or anthropological meaning
◦ Because race is a confusing term taking on many different meanings among post-1965 immigrants
◦ Since post-1965 immigrants are not facing any overt attempts as Deculturalization and Americanization
NO◦ Many native-born whites and
blacks still think in the racial categories created by law and judicial decisions from the 18th century to the Civil Rights Movements
◦ Since government agencies require the use of racial categories
◦ The legacy of race-based laws and Deculturalization still contribute to educational and economic inequality
◦ Since many immigrants from Mexico and Central America as assimilation into native-born Hispanic communities suffering from the legacy of the past
