Among the posts in those search results above, you'll find some good responses to this very question. You should get some good ideas out of them.

Remember it says "autobiographical" (meaning a story about YOU) about race in YOUR community. Only you can decide what to write about since only YOU have lived YOUR life. So be sure to use the ideas in those search results to get started.

How do you feel about race and other racial groups? What data do you have to back up your opinions? Are these data personal? What references do you have to support your own experiences?

I searched Google under the key words "race community" to get these possible sources:
