Most Important Concept

We have covered a lot of topics this semester, but personally, the most important concept I learned was the idea of racial lumping. This idea struck me because I have been racially lumped before and I didn't even realize that there was a word for it! The fact that most Asian-Americans, as well as Latin-Americans, face this kind of discrimination is very unfortunate, but if we continue to learn about different cultures within different races, and begin to differentiate between ethnicities, racial lumping may not necessarily become obsolete, but it will start to decrease.
