ANTH 21 UCSD Talking with Family and Friends About Race and Racism Discussion
Question Description
Activity 4 (Thanksgiving Week): Talking with Family and Friends about Race and Racism
Sometimes its easy to talk to family members and friends about a sensitive issue like race, sometimes its harder because we fear rejection from loved ones if our opinions dont match. But risk taking and vulnerability are also what strengthens intimacy among acquaintances. Start a conversation about a race related issue with family or friends. (Thanksgiving dinner might not be the best time for this, since it may cause indigestion, and I dont want to ruin your holiday if you celebrate it.) In one paragraph, describe what you talked about, how it went, and whether you feel the conversation encourages or discourages you from having further conversations about race and racism.
