Do you think in our community today, race plays an important role in defining people?

Yes

Explanation: Being black, Hispanic, Indian, Haitian, etc. can play a huge role in our community with defining people. In society, people that aren't white and people that are from other countries have been judged unfiarly. Like the lynching of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and others. Ahmaud Arbery was killed just for running in his own neighborhood. The police offficer that killed him thought he looked suspicious, because of the sterotype that black people can't afford to live in nice neighborhoods. They thought that he didn't belong in that neighborhood, all because of his race. Also I've seen many videos of racist people telling forigners that they need to go back to their own country, they don't belong here, or something like that. So, if your not white people might define you as a criminal or "alien". Even though non-white people have more rights now then back when slavery was encouraged, it makes me uneasy how our community pre-judges us based on our race or ethnicity, before even getting to know us.
