1. Define individual, institutional, oven, and coven racism. What are your views about these different perspectives on racism?

2. What is meant by white privilege? Give one example in U.S. history that has contributed to the development of white privilege. If you are white, give a teal example of how you've personally experienced racial privilege in your own life or that of a friend or family member. Comment on how you benefit from historical and current racism, even if you have never acted in openly racist ways. If you are a person of color, give an observed example of how white people or people of European descent continue to benefit from historical and current racism even if they have never acted in blatantly racist ways themselves.

3. Select two of the following groups and discuss how each group's history as a target of racism may impact its current access to resources, power, benefits, and the American Dream:
• American Indians
• African Americans
• Asian Americans or Pacific Islanders (if you choose this general group, select a specific group of immigrants, rather than generalizing about all Asian Americans or Pacific Islanders)
• Latinos or Hispanics (if you choose this general group, select a specific group, such as Colombians, Mexicans, or Puerto Ricans, rather than generalizing about all Latinos or Hispanics).
