Overview
This overview provides a synopsis of the current knowledge base. Having considered all the information, we make sense of it by taking a stab at the following: 1) What are the priority issues that deserve attention, 2) What are opportunity areas that community or voluntary organisations can already take action on, and 3) What knowledge gaps deserve further investigation?

History and Context of Race in Singapore
[Should focus mostly on Singapore-specific content, everything else can be linked, but some general context and links can be added.]
The concept of race is problematic. The social construction of race
- Scientific racism:eg Carl Lineas - unsicentific descriptors along color lines; the 'hopeful europeans' and irascible native americans' and 'rigid asiatics' etc.
- Colonialism: British Colonialism brought these ideas to our shores. Introduced racial divisions and polices that strengthens the role of the British as Colonizing masters. Also introduced stereotypes that we are familiar with. The lazy native. This is the emergence of the CMIO, also partly because of census purposes. Have we truly decolonize our knowledge and can question this whole idea of race, which is a European invention. "Can we think about our own differences with our own categories instead of use the differences inherited from the British." Imran Taib in possibility conversation.
