demonstrate your understanding of the Module 8 theme “Racialization”

Background:
In Module 8 (attached PDFs), you watched several videos about how to talk – and listen – about race and privilege. In a couple of sentences, introduce the scholars main ideas and then reflect on two salient points that resonated with you. Use those ideas as a springboard in response to the following question:

Will increasing racial literacy by communicating more openly about racialization (kind-of like the class is doing in this discussion) have positive effects, negative effects, or no result on racial equity in the U.S.? Why or why not? For full credit, make sure to incorporate relevant conceptual frameworks in your response.
