Ⅲ. Discussion
Americans are said to be more racial-conscious than class-conscious. Why is that? To what extent can such a statement be justified?
The USA is a multi-racial and multi-ethnic nation, with people from all over the world.
Moreover, the U.S. is also a nation of associations, where people join organization of every type, including racially- and ethnically-based interest groups.
The U.S. government and its ruling elite have spared no effort to preach bourgeois values and capitalist doctrine to the American public.
The ruling class and its parties have never hesitated to crush radical movements.
