Chapter 8 Race and Ethnicity as Lived Experience Chapter Study Outline Defining Race and Ethnicity Race is a socially defined category, based on real or perceived biological differences between groups of people. Ethnicity is a socially defined category based on common language, religion, nationality, history, or another cultural factor. Sociologists see race and ethnicity as social constructions because they are not rooted in biological differences, they change over time, and they never have firm boundaries. Symbolic ethnicity is an ethnic identity that is only relevant on specific occasions and does not significantly impact everyday life. Situational ethnicity is an ethnic identity that can be either displayed or concealed depending on its usefulness in a given situation.

General Dewitt says, ?A Jap is a Jap, citizen or not, they will never change and cannot be trusted!? This anti-Japanese sentiment is shared by many Americans after Japan bomb Pearl Harbor in 1941. The Americans blame all the Japanese and people of Japanese ancestry for the bombing. They look at the Japanese Americans with fear and distrust. As a result, the Japanese American become the target of racial discrimination; Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston and her father, Ko Wakatsuki are among those being discriminated. To let people know how Japanese Americans are treated in America at that time, Jeanne Wakatsuki wrote, Farewell to Manzanar. Jeanne and Ko Wakatsuk are resilient when dealing with discrimination.
