No person of any race or ethnicity has a biological or spiritual claim to being better than anyone else. Race has served to separate society into different levels for the benefit of a few people who have been defined as white, to the misfortune of anyone considered nonwhite or of color. “Although race is something imagined (or constructed), its effects are real. From lifespans to salary to where you live, race has a measurable impact on a person’s quality of life.”
