theres a race section on american transcripts????

for my education transcript personally, as far as i know, yes :(

#they make you mark down your race #options are: white. black. hispanic/latino. asian. native american. other. #💀 and then in parentheses they write “if you are from middle eastern origin mark down white” #like bruh what if someone of “middle eastern origin” was brown 😭 what then #my brown grandpa and his entire family would NOTTTTT mark down white 😭 #and i can't put asian because they are referencing to east asian. and i am FAR south west asian. smh #i assume they put down race on transcripts because in highschool or college you can win certain scholarships if you're black or native. etc #but yeah it's annoying seeing people put into categories that don't even make sense
