How does this view compare with the traditional, biological view of race?

Sory for the last minute notice but I just realized this was due today.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper discussing the current view that race is a social construction supported by political realities.  Include the following:

• How does this view compare with the traditional, biological view of race?
• How did the traditional view assist or inhibit the assimilation of underserved groups into the overall American majority?
• Which approach – assimilation, melting pot, fusion and/or pluralism – matches most closely to the new definition of race in contemporary America?
• Which definition of race do you support?  Why?

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines, and include at least two sources in addition to the textbook.
