One: Issue Are Definitions of Race Just Political? YES---Lawrence Wright NO---Clara Rodriguez and Hector Cordero-Guzman
1. What exactly is the "one-drop rule" of racial identification as
practiced in the United States? Explain why you think it is that the "racial categories" appearing in the US Census have never remained the same from one census to another.
