When it comes to mixed races, Tannenbaum had a very
open mind to it. As Denii Rincon claimed in her blog,“Tannenbaum’s notion that
slavery will never truly end unless there is mixing of the races is wrong”
(Rincon). Denii Rincon describes how only because people have mixed children
doesn’t necessarily mean slavery will end. Rincon explains how she believes
that a well-educated establishment would help end slavery and can one day end
it. She goes on to describe her own experience on being in a mixed cultural environment.
She tells her reader about all the different races she grew up around which
helped her be accepting towards other races. As she continues to tell readers
about her experiences with other races she mentions how Tannenbaum would have
been pleased which means in certain aspects Rincon agrees with him. The only
agreement that seems to be shared by Rincon and Tannenbaum is the positive
attitude regarding mixed races. Denii Rincon goes on to tell her idea by
stating “will learn to accept other races as a part of the United States
if they are simply exposed to other races as children in a positive way”(Rincon).
Denii idea is if people were to be more
exposed to other races at an earlier age then acceptance of different races and
cultures would be accepted. I agree with
Denii Rincon claim and ideas for mixed races. She has very valid points and
even has a personal understanding because of her exposure to different races
and cultures. She ends with telling her readers that being well informed and
educated about other cultures is the key to abolish slavery.
