He/She feels like their culture is more important than
anything else.
Cultural Relativism promotes the perspective that a
culture must be understood in the context of their locality.
Example :
Aeta’s are well known for having a curly hair and dark
skin.
~ everybody knows it right? It is
understandable for the local society because they are one of
the famous ethnic groups in the Philippines and they are well
known especially in Luzon.
culture must be understood by other for that person’s sake, so
that each person must know each group ( ethnic ) traditions
and their culture.
Race (17th to early 19th Century)
 is one of the term used as a form of
Human classification that is based on observable
traits and characteristic.
 The categories are Caucasoid,
Australoid, Mongoloid and Negroid these categories
reflect people’s differences in skin color, size
of skull, height, body frame and other physical characteristic.

Social Changes due to the continuous growth of

Caucasoid Mongoloid
Human Population ( 108, 869, 850 is the current population
of the Philippines as of January 06, 2020 almost 1.41% of the
world’s population ) and they adapt to the dynamic of
surroundings, the other factor is modernization and
globalization.
Negroid Austroloid
Ferraro and Andreatta ( Gary Ferraro is a well-known Due to the social context associated with racial group,
writer for writing the Cultural Anthropology together with discrimination was further exacerbated. In countries that
Susan Andreatta is an socio-cultural anthropologist ) they practice slavery of African Population, Racial Discrimination
against individuals of African decent by colonizer became a
highly observable phenomenon.
Racism creates a deep cleavage that further
marginalizes the subjects racials oppression. In 2013 a study
of the Pew Research Center, it was noted that “all black men
are six times as likely as white men to be incarcerated”. This
vulnerability to incarcerate is attributed to the distinctly lower
household income of Black Families that White counterpart.
Filipinos have also been subject to various form of racism.
The question that everyone must answer in relation to
racial variation is this: Are humans really different from one
another, or are our differences just skin-deep?
Some scholars would argue that there should be
Biological Egalitarianism among humans to prevent further
racism. This perspective promotes the equality of our
biological makeup despite our ancestry.
