Race Relations is a web site for racial profiling, but not in the way you may think.   Essays on race and racism that profile the nuances of race relations, racism, and other racial issues in America are the primary focus of Race Relations.  But, the essays on race will also touch on different racial issues regarding race relations around the world.  Moreover, many of the writings can be viewed from a worldly perspective—in the sense that methods of racial discrimination and oppression used by the social and economically powerful in one culture, are the same ones used by the powerful in another culture.  Cultural and societal variations of  racial discrimination, racial profiling, institutional racism, and racism in general, basically have little effect on the cross-cultural themes and lessons that can be learned about the general dynamics of racism, race relations, and other racial issues.  Racism in America is a modern day microcosm for all racism.  You can use the problems and effects of racism in America—and the resulting dysfunctional interracial relationships—as a crystal ball for other problems involving race relations in the world.

Race Relations is about racial profiling —profiling in the sense that the essays on race may discuss  not only obvious stories about racism and race relations, but also  intraracial and interracial relationships.  Though America has naturally made strides in race relations and dealing with racial issues because of its flagship status as a truly multicultural society, there is still vast room for improvement.  Race Relations  hopes not only to keep the much needed discussion about racism and racial issues open, but will quite naturally flow into the benefits of multiculturalism and issues involving cultural diversity.

I can’t promise it,  but my plan is to update Race Relations on a fairly regular basis.  In any event, I will be adding new essays that have something to do with intraracial and/or interracial race relations on a regular basis.  So feel free to visit the site and make comments about the essays on race.  Perhaps in the future Race Relations will open up a forum where members can expound upon the essays in the blog, and start their own discussions.
