Arnold Farr is a man who is very opinionated when it comes down to essentialism and racial identity. Farr breaks down every single part of essentialism and racial identity. One type of essentialism that was talked about was the “original essentialism.” This was used to link people together that just happened to live in the same region, features, and character and social behaviors, which were false to their true identity as a people. When in fact, it was a coincidence that these people’s behaviors were slightly the same. In fact, this type of thinking was the type that was used during early slavery and is still used today, by some groups of people who happen to hate minority cultures. For example, the Ku Klux Klan still uses this type of thinking because they were brought up with the idea that certain minority cultures are inferior to others. Another term that Farr uses is “reesessentialism.” In his chapter, he mentions that reesessentialism was used to take the place of a stereotype, which was made by an original racial essentialism created by oppressors or people that looked down upon a culture or group of people.
