Multi Lang: If someone tried to understand you using only your race, what important things would that person miss?

 That person would most likely miss the fact where I'm from, my real ethnicity, but most important my real race, because for example I'm born in america but my hair texture might make people think I'm from Latin america, my accent might also make them think that not american. People mainly make inferences because of what they see. People don't ask you about your racial ethnicity, your ancestry, or where you are from when you are a stranger so they will only think and have an idea based on you looks.


Reflection: people don't really bother to ask whether you are Black, White, Hispanic,  Asian, or mix race. People will mainly have an idea of your race based on your looks ( hair texture, skin color, or accent), who you surround yourself with, and  what you like. But once someone gets to know you more closely they will know much more about you.


Summary: As humans we are really ignorant, we don't bother to actually ask or really think from where a person is  because we think it might be rude but actually sometimes we really need to ask a question even if its a bit  rude. We can't just assume a person is from somewhere or is a specific race just for their looks. Its important to know that even though we tend to jump into conclusions quick its important to know that we are all different and that we share different roots specially racially.
