      The book describes race as a primary aspect of personal identity. Race is also used to categorize people in society. In American history it has always been a white predominate country, and it is because of this that we have such racial gap in our society. Many white folk had better access to better schools that those of color. I do believe that many people use race to classify many different peopl in todays society. The reason for this is because of how different everybody looks visually. I believe that race is a very important thing in todays society because not only does it remind America of its past, but i believe that it brings a melting pot of people into the country. The Census Bureau should allow people to check multiple races to define themselves because i believe today, there are a lot of people that are more than one race.
