When we heard about race, that means we are talking about different culture, religion, their appearances, face, etc. But when we think about races but people are same but they just have different face and their religion. I think we should make every people equal rights. In Indian we have like song we sing in school and first line of song is we should believe everybody is brother and sister and we will protect each other. Also, In my opinion we should make different rules and things for different people. When we are watching like guess who they are?? But we can not judge them by their face or how they look. But we judge them by their culture, religion and where they from?? Sometimes I confuse by how to make different between some people. Last week , Sal saw us different balls and tell us to categorize them. I put them in three different parts like soft ball, hard ball and large balls. But at the end he told us what they actually mean like there is different races and different cultures but they all look same. Each ball worth something like for different countries just like we saw cricket ball and tell students to tell us where do you put that one. Also, when we watch that show The Office it was cool but it was kind of against race like the manger was making fun of different culture like African American, Indian and that stuff. He could not do that stuff. Also, when we are different from other culture that means we are new in different countries.
When I was in India, we had no problem with race that much but when I came here it was totally different because here is more people are coming from different countries. We should not go against them. Also, I would like to say just be equal to each other and try to accept everybody. Also, generally the racial categories represent a social-political construct for the race or races that respondents consider themselves to be and generally reflect a social definition of race recognized in this country

Way to live in Different social class....
I think since we are watching movie about social class. The movie is very interesting about how social classes are different in USA. How people are treating others differently if they are not same as them like if they are rich, they treat rich people better than poor. Also, they have different classes in school, and they get more respect than others. In the movie we are shown all different families or individuals who live in different social classes. We are shown how they dress, what they eat , what they say and most importantly how they view the classes higher or lower than them and how they view themselves.I think this is most important thing we should learn about and try to fix the problem. We should treat everybody the same. Because humans are same but they just have their own identity to prove them self differently like their race, culture, way they act and their believes. Another thing I saw in movie was social classes in school like rich students have different classes than poor kids. Why?? Just because they do not have that much money but I think that is biggest problem in USA. Many Americans believe in a simple three-class model that includes the rich , the middle class, and the poor. More complex models that have been proposed describe as many as a dozen class levels; while still others deny the very existence, in the strict sense, of social class in American society. Most definitions of class structure group people according wealth, income, education, type of occupation, and membership in a specific subculture or social network.
Today Mr. Sal was talking about preschool and how much they have to pay to get in, I mean why should they have to pay higher prices like colleges in preschool. Another important factor of social class is working people who are working hard and get money like blue color people, that is hard work for them and get less money. Also, Monday we are looking at different charts in class about how wealth, education, location, race effect on person. If you are rich it is most likely to get higher score in ACT and they earn highest money. But I don't think so it is big matter. When I was in we used to learn about caste system just like social class here. In caste system there are four different parts and if you are at bottom its class Sudra(untouchable), they have like not that much right like they can not touch any rich people or they do not get good school and lot of other stuff. But that problem is going down, people try to understand them not make them separate from them. When I was in school in India, and the one guy was from lower class, our whole class was not talking to him and does not give him respect. I think that is not fair for him but we have to follow what people do.
