Lind's Character

I believe that Lind tries to show us that his beliefs on interacial marriages are rising and that each race will soon become to complex for there to only be one race, but many races combined. Lind has proven to me his authority. He was the editor of Harper's which appeared in the New York Times Magazine in 1998. This tells us that he has something to say and that we should listen to him. He shows the audience that he is trustworthy and honesty in his research by telling us where he received his information on the topic. Also he tells us statistics of many surveys that prove his theory of the races combining. Lind argument is clear on the fact that he wants to explain to us that when we think America is changing, there are still changes we will face over time. Lind's motives are not seen as offensive but as an explaination of his thoughts that our world, concerning race, is evolving right before our eyes.
