a) What is racism?

b) What types of actions are racist?

c) Which sectors or social groups in your community do you consider to be more vulnerable to racism?

2. List and write on the board behaviors that happen in your community and that you consider to be acts of racism.

Race is a social construct based on physical characteristics. These constructs have allowed for the oppression and domination of one group of people over others. Because of these constructs, some people have been considered superior and others inferior.This belief harms the dignity and fundamental human rights of the less privileged. Slavery is the extreme case.

This occurred for many centuries. For example,enslaved Africans were brought to Veracruz and occupied the lowest position in the social hierarchy,even below the indigenous inhabitants of the American territory.

Today, some people still treat others unfairly because of their skin color. They might think that people with darker skin are not as good as people with lighter skin. This is not correct. Everyone should be treated the same, no matter what they look like.
