I think the writer’s race does matter when dealing with race. I feel that it matters when speaking from the perspective of another race. When writing for another race you are either writing from your biases or stereotypes or from a 3rd party. A writer may write about what they see but I don’t think the writing will capture the thoughts and emotions of that person for the most part. I also think it may help someone really understand just what that person of a different race is going through. I also don’t believe one should be limited to talking about their opinions on a particular subject matter just because they aren’t in that particular group, whether race or any other minority
