Answer 1

No, we are not currently living in a society where race no longer matters. Despite significant progress, systemic racism and racial disparities persist in various aspects of life, including education, employment, healthcare, and criminal justice. While the election of a Black president was a significant milestone, it did not eliminate deep-seated racial biases and inequalities that continue to shape people's experiences and opportunities. Addressing these issues requires ongoing efforts to dismantle systemic racism and promote equity and inclusion for all racial and ethnic groups.
