How Does Race As A Social Construct By Emanuel Lusca

In the article, "Race as a Social Construct" Emanuel Lusca tells about his and other views on race stating how it's a social construction. Lusca fulfilled his goal to convince his spectators by giving multiple examples and facts. Lusca uses many writers work as examples to tell about their views on race. A couple of examples of the multiple writers work he uses are Ruth Frankenberg, John Searle, Franz Boas, and Takaki. He uses the writers to help his audience believe what he is saying is true and to help make his work way more factual. When talking about others work he not only tells their opinions on race, but also tells us his opinion over the certain article. Lusca also gives a summary over each on of the writers work to help his readers understand the point of the article. By giving us all these examples it helps his audience know he is very well informed over the topic “Race as a Social Construction”. Lusca did a very well job on his articles layout so his readers can have a good understanding and follow what he’s talking about. Lusca uses a bunch of sources to help out what he’s saying, but he also uses a bunch of his own words and opinions. I think he expresses his opinion a lot

When Lusca says a social construct is “ontologically subjective” he is saying it changes from person to person. Racism in my opinion is dumb and pointless we’re all people. It shouldn’t matter what race you are black, white, chinese, indian, or mexican we are all the same. People should not think being racist is cool or okay but they do still to this day. When Lusca says race is “epistemologically objective” he’s saying people should not dwell on race and think anyone is better than others because that’s something society made up. Race has to do with a lot like what jobs we have, the houses we live in, and the food we eat. There is nothing saying that a social construction is real what’s so
