SOCI306  Race and Ethnicity
Week 1 Forum
Race & Ethnic Relations
Use the following site:
https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/table/PST045216/00
to explore your home town or current community, paying particular attention to the racial and ethnic makeup.
Next, Read:  Hayanga, A. J., Zeliadt, S. B., & Backhus, L. M. (2013). Residential segregation and lung cancer mortality in the United States. JAMA Surgery, 148(1), 37-42. doi:10.1001/jamasurgery.2013.408, available in the APUS library here:  http://ezproxy.apus.edu/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=mdc&AN=23324839&site=ehost-live&scope=site
Then, answer the following:
To what extent is your home town or current community segregated by race or ethnicity? Is this reflected in the public schools and the location of stores, or other factors?  What impact do you believe segregation has on race/ethnic relations in your community? Finally, what are some major concerns found in the article above, and could they relate to your area as well? Why or why not?
Explain your answer.
Instructions for all Forums:
Each week, learners will post one initial post per week.  This post must demonstrate comprehension of the course materials, the ability to apply that knowledge in the real world.  Learners will engage with the instructor and peers throughout the learning week.  To motivate engaged discussion, posts are expected to be on time with regular interaction throughout the week.  All posts should demonstrate college level writing skills. To promote vibrant discussion as we would in a face to face classroom, formatted citations and references are not required.  Quotes should not be used at all, or used sparingly.  If you quote a source quotation marks should be used and an APA formatted citation and reference provided.
