The Changing Face of America


The Changing Faces of America

"We’ve become a country where
race is no longer so black or white." 

"What is it about the faces on these pages that we find so intriguing? Is it simply that their features disrupt our expectations, that we’re not used to seeing those eyes with that hair, that nose above those lips?" Lise Funderburg, National Geographic 

There has been a lot of controversy in the US due to race.  Such as the ongoing mayhem in Ferguson and the death of Eric Garner.  America is made up of all immigrants.  So we are not all one race we are all different.  National Geographic states that in 2050 most americans will be biracial.  I believe this will end the violence between the white and black people in America.  It will climate the divide between black and white americans we have made and make our country.
