Questions from a religion article

These questions are just designed to help you hone in on the basics of Bantum's argument. We'll have time next week to discuss the complexities involved... for now just try to make sure you understand what he's trying to say here, even if you don't agree with him. 

1. B. says that race is no longer a beast armed with bold ignorance and legal codification. What is it now?

2. What does B. mean when he says that race is a process rather than an essential biological fact?

3. Give some examples of ways that B. thinks race has become embedded within the pattern and hopes associated with our identities. Put another way, what are B's examples of how race is still alive in the U.S. today?

4. Having read the full article, give a brief explanation of the title of the article, or why B. thinks that Christians particularly cannot be "post-racial"

5. Finally, give at least one example of how race plays a role in the UD community. If you don't think that it does, write a couple of sentences explaining why.
