Assignment:
Blog Post: Invisible Racism
Find an example from popular culture from any country (anime counts!) where the issue of race is addressed in some way and post it on your blog (could be a song, a commercial, a clip from a film or t.v. show, an interview, an excerpt from a book, etc.). Please post appropriate content.

Underneath your pop culture example, discuss how you think it contributes to race and identity.
