Does race and ethnicity play a role in how art is made? What is considered to be Asian American art? These are the questions one would ask in order to better understand the relationship between race and ethnicity and how it ties in with Asian American art.

Nevertheless‚ several people I recently interviewed never appeared to be certain when race was a good thing or when it was a bad thing to talk about‚ which in my mind leaves us all struggling with a particularly intimidating question: When should we talk as if race matters?

CheckPoint Assignment: Defining Race and Ethnicity Shane King 5-25-2010 Theresa Thurman I think that race could have several meanings depending on the individual.
