Race and Ethnicity today: terms to know and understand Race - classification of human beings based on genetic differences – hair, skin, facial differences. Ethnic Group - a group of people recognized as a class on the basis of certain distinctive characteristics such as religion, language, ancestry, or national origin Stereotype - a generalized idea or image, usually negative, that is learned about a group of people Prejudice - a negative or hostile attitude toward another social group, usually racially defined

Racism - Prejudice + Power Racial Discrimination - Unfair or unequal treatment of members of some specific group Ethnocentrism - Belief that norms and values of one’s own culture are superior to those of others(religion, appearance, social status, etc..) Multiculturalism(Pluralism) - retention of minority group identities with individual racial and ethnic groups accommodating themselves to one another’s individual differences
