Which box do I check? | Am I Normal? With Mona Chalabi
How we identify makes a difference in our lived experiences, but it’s not always reflected in the checkboxes we see on forms. In this episode, Mona Chalabi explores why language matters in data collection, and why the categories we use should reflect who we really are. Want to hear more from Mona? Check out her…

What TED Will Look Like in 40 Years — According to Sora, OpenAI’s Unreleased Text-to-Video Model
Sora, an unreleased AI model from OpenAI, generates realistic and imaginative video from text prompts. Acclaimed filmmaker Paul Trillo was granted early access just before the TED2024 conference. This year marks TED’s 40th anniversary — but instead of looking back, we asked Sora to show us what the next 40 years could look like. (Footage…

Any group that has a big enough community should be considered in the census , for example Indians and Pakistani Americans are lumped with Asians despite having completely different cultures , Arabs are lumped with whites … etc

I allways have trouble when answering my race because I’m alot of things, Im ittalian German and Irish(and some others) for the “white?” Side of things I suppose? But I live/grew up on a reservation and am also native American and Mexican. My skin color is white, so do I say white? Or ittalian? Or like???? Idk, very confusing for me. I normally just list a few things idk XD, forms I say native American.

Aside for no real reason to ask these questions, I think what may shed some clarity is “Race”, “Ethnicity”, “Nationality” are all differnt things, yet most dont know the difference.
Me, I am:
Race: White
Ethnicity: Italian, Spanish, French
Nationality: American
I am not European/American, thats just stupid in my opinion, its like saying Afro-American, yea, i am going to get a lot of hate on this one, but from my point of view it means one doesnt know the difference of race, ethnicity and nationality, is Afro-American mean: Ethnicity: African, Nationality: American? if so, then why dont we change every catagory and change every person who not an american indian into their Ethnicity Category / American?

Lived experience = racial identity = community. We need more categories. This is the reasoning we now call “progressive “.

Started off well on the importance of language and limitations of data but then veered off into some very weird directions. If you consider race to be a social construct then we shouldn’t be using it more, we should be moving away from it. But I don’t think race is a social construct, there is a biological reality underlying although that is complex and I think many people have very different ideas on what is meant by the term but that discussion should be a separate topic. Also the term “lived experience” is redundant. You can’t experience something without living it. There’s no unlived experience. Even if I read a memoir of someone who fought in WWII, talked to survivors, visited the sites and so on, I would never experience being in WWII.

I always have a gripe about how “Hispanic/Latino” isn’t considered a race in the USA census. According to the census, I’m a white person with “Hispanic or Latino descent”. And while that could be accurate due to my lighter skin and large portion of DNA coming from Spain, I just feel weird putting “White” as my race.

Thank you for this Enterprising monologue. I’m South African and of mixed heritage. Here my race are classified as coloureds. And as Trevor Noah said “we made here in Sa, it’s rather true but it’s fraught with ambiguity. I can’t identify with another coloured person’s culture or heritage as mine is solely different in comparison to one another who is on the other side of my country- even though we tick the same boxes on any government issued form( bloody irks me) and that’s the conundrum. To term ethnic, racial profiling for demographics as a social construct couldn’t be more on the point.
For me it doesn’t matter the colour of your skin, your heritage, your language to be set aside as a difference. Because from some form or another we definetly have had intermingling some where along the line. So phenotypic appearances and typical differentiation should not be encouraged. Ie your black and you’re white by your skin colour or lineage.
We should be celebrating what lineage,colour, dialects, skin colour as a form of uniqueness. As hybridization is going to be far more common as the people become more tolerable to one another.
So if someone were to ask you what are you? My belief is to say I’m human, from Africa, and a Republican of South Africa. So many atime due to accepted racial profiling one would say I’m coloured. And for me that’s not good enough.
When these terms will disappear who knows.

We are all coloured the only exceptions are albino and most of the time they too have a slight colour, I held up a black piece of paper beside my hand well I’m not black so I tried a white piece well I’m not white either there were green and purple pieces and even orange with many dots in different colours and none of them was the same colour as my skin so I think I’m pretty unique (just like the rest 😉 of us).

Just create races checkbox such as “Human”, “Orc”, “Undead” and I’m sure many problems would gone. Human tends to differentiate itself more than it needs to be.
