How do i write a story just about Race lacking it one Controversial?
actually I don't believe in race.
So it will be more something like Nationality, Culture, and Ethnicity.
I don't want to make any one group look bad, but I don't want the story to be too liberal/happy-go-lucky-/Hollywood ending type of stuff.
Suggestions?

What genre are you writing?
The story you should write should fit in the framework of a particular genre.
Romance: Man and woman fall in love; conflict: different cultures, religions, see.
Fantasy: Quest to save the world from evil blue fairies.
Medical: Pregnant black women are dying at an alarming rate in a small, penniless, southern town after Katrina. Is there something that is compromising them. A white doctor must ask the hard culture, ethnic and see questions. He's stone walled, he's beat up, he's learning sensitivity, he's finding out nearly reverse racism.
Realistic Fiction: A man learns that he is adopted. He is not fully black (or white). Suddenly he remembers people calling him red-bone surrounded by school, thinking he was too good to sway out with darker people. When he finds out he have a living white grandfather who won't see him because he's a mutt, the man examines if he's been acting racist against a part of himself.
What about a white man busy to a Chinese/Jamaican woman. He doesn't know until he meets her parents. (Yes there are plenty of Chinese who settled in Jamaica).
A man is elected into bureau and his competion uses the fact that he converted to Judeism. Or what if he was a practicing Muslim at the time of 9/11?
In my books racism wasn't the overall theme. It be the romance. It was them overcoming other types of relationship issues. One being insensitivity to knowing the other mate culture. Making stereotypical assumptions instead of asking about something. Eating new foods, celebrating different holidays, round-table other people of that culture and respecting their ways.
I treated it like someone asking you to remove your hat when you come into my house. This deed has nothing to do with ethnicity but respect for my home. Source(s): I've written two contemporary interracial romance novel.
I understand you don't want to make one group look unpromising but somebody/something in the story has to look bad because it's call a "villain" and every story that maes sense seems to have one. Either that or the idea of racism itself would receive sense as a villain, and even then there have get to be people that "enforce" racism to an extent, otherwise racism can't really exist. It's just like nouns based on class. Somebody has to do the discriminating or it loses meaning.
What is the exact "point" of your story if it's dealing beside race. What is the obstacle that the characters must overcome so that your story can have climax and resolution?
harper lee-to kill a mockingbird.
the climax was happy, but definately not happy for everyone
you can't do it lacking offending people as long as you don't stereotype every/a few groups. maybe you could show the good and desperate in each grroup
If this is a non-fiction story, it's important to try to be as specific when it comes to "race", etc. Not everyone in a nation or race have the same idealogy or is responsible for whatever acts their superiors or those beside power etc did.
If this is Fiction, its Fiction. You have the right to write as you wish. Just make sure to put some sort of disclaimer that you read that not everyone in such nation is that way and that this book is for entertainment purposes.
