What Does Race Have to do With Society? ● The Functionalist views racial and ethnic inequality as having a specific function in society. “The main function of ethnic and racial inequality is to ensure the unpleasant but important work gets done” (Curry, Jiobu, Schwirian, 232) ● The Functionalist theorist of sociology feels that the racial and ethnic minorities have very little job skills. They also feel that every society has jobs that are undesirable to the people in that society. The jobs that give low pay, have poor working conditions, and have little prestige. The minorities don’t have the means to compete for the high paying, desirable jobs, therefore they have to settle for the undesirable jobs. ○ For example, Asian immigrants are working in sweatshops and Mexican immigrants act as maids, gardeners, and field hands. That is the function that racial and ethnic inequalities play in society.
