Question

There has long been a divide among sociologists about whether race or class is more important in contemporary America. Considering how connected American racial history and economic history are, how do you understand the relationship between race, ethnicity, and class? Taking into consideration the history of race in America, how does "color-blindness" become a kind of "history-denying" similar to fringe groups who deny the Holocaust? In what ways can you identify examples of "blaming the victim" throughout history while documenting the horrors of the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment-keeping in mind that the "experiment" continued until the 1970s?
