Racial hierarchy is shown in modern society?
Racial hierarchy is ranked by the ideas and belief of humanity aspiring being superior or inferior toward other racial group based on biological, political and even cultural difference among people. Showing that every racial group had different cultures and values that depicted their ethnicity background. This brought a lot of contradictions between racial groups that lead to segregation toward color people. It was seen as corruption to other race and separated the idea and color people from getting mix with white race. Therefore, this picture represents the structure of color that destructed the skin color and the acceptance of society. Which it was seen base on the system that African American were target by their background.
In addition, color race and black people struggled to live under the structure of hierarchy because their rights were taken away. They couldn’t grow and live their lives the way the wanted. Brought fear and pain towards the idea of not being able to proceed their dreams. It lead to segregation among black people because white race didn’t want them near or even have the same benefits as them. Following with color race that were under the categories of denying privileges. Not only did color race and black people suffer but they were tortured and beaten to know or see black person with a white person. It wasn’t allow to mix with white race because they had other beliefs and values. White race had the privilege of receiving a better education and have economically outstanding. But also better things that other race different.
An example that support the injustice would be “The Sweeter the Juice” book it states how Haizlip talks about the injustice of society and the benefit that white people encounter. Black people were denied their identity and social life. The main point of black people wanting to pass to white and leave behind their ethnicity because the pressure was forcing them . Black people were eager to be part of the white society to feel good and not be humiliated by the white race. But, also to gain the opportunities and benefit granted to the white. It states that hierarchy was a hug point that mark the history of race because it took the privilege of being one with other race.
Racial group created hierarchy as a way of believing and proving to other race that white people are better than other race do to their knowledge and education. That only white race were allowed to seek economic benefit and the power of society. In the article called “ Diversity”, immigration, and the new American multi-racial hierarchy, states that multi-racial hierarchy of privilege and disadvantage continues to exist. Due to the history of anti-Black discrimination and stereotyping in the USA,” ( Bell et al.). Different multiple racial migrates don’t have the opportunity as people white people and are put under the bottom class. They aren’t part of society. This effect color people because they can’t proceed with a job or be economically stable. There has been inequality and lack of interest of helping other race that need it. People from different race tend to only stick and treat their race well. Ignoring and leaving color race isolated from experiencing what there is to be. Pride is part of this system because it states how white people are selfish to help other race and help society with anything.

In modern society hierarchy had change but not completely, there is still some difference between color race and white race economically and living standard. As middle class people of color have opportunities and privileges given because racial groups has accepted and become one with other race. Everyone deserve an opportunity and benefit to succeed in life. But also to have something to support families. Hierarchy brought racial group together and stand for one another as well as providing benefit for race. Equality is given because race at this point doesn’t matter what matter making society strong. And providing safe place for other race to feel accepted and part of the hierarchy. USA was founded by immigrants and brought along the equality to help and connect others together. People were free to be and benefit from it. It's what makes society strong and well prepare to anything that would come in the way. It provide not just benefits but also the opportunity to receive education and health to have a stable life. Black people are part of society to help and provide like any other race does. Do to this it should that black are striving just like Latinos and some white to keep the justice and equality that was grant to them. Hierarchy of justice and development of becoming one with the other race. People help other race to have the same benefit because it shows that a lot of racial group suffer from lack of resource and other qualities. That prevents them from having a well and complete live regardless of other. In the book “ Autobiography of black man”, the narrator explains that black people were passing to white because they wanted to have the opportunity of what they have. But also that some white do accept the idea of having friends and sharing what was given to them because they know the hardship of being part of society. How many don’t even get the opportunity to have a better live do to circumstances in their lives.
