Race and ethnicity

I thought this chapter was very interesting because it talked about race and ethnicity but didn't stereotype different nationalities in an offensive matter. The first thing that caught my eye was a sentence on the first page "Scientists believe that race is a social and not biological." I thought that was very interesting because it sounds so true. As i grew up and hung out with different nationalities or groups i found a change in the way i thought about things or how i handled situations accordingly. I felt like i had different characteristics when i was with different people. I didn't mean to get like that, but sometimes peoples personalities rub off on others without people even noticing.
