Forms of dignity- : From the above definitions, one can clearly observe that dignity can be understood in two forms:
First, dignity can be understood in personal terms. Personal dignity operates at the level of the individual, and is perhaps best understood as a sense of perspective on self-worth. To have personal dignity is to appreciate oneself sufficiently that one would withstand pressures to lower one’s self esteem. The perspective for which dignity can be seen as self worth is for instance, what we at codewit try to do by creating awareness amongst Africans and the black race as a community. An awareness of self worth and value, which attempts to reinvigorate our strengths and potential as human beings and as a dignified race. Dignity can also be understood to operate at the level of community. At the communal level, inclusion is the essence of dignity. To treat another with dignity is to consider another presumptively worthy of full integration into community membership. Dignity, in this sense, is universal and undifferentiated respect for
social value. It is universal in that dignity inheres to every member of the community. It is undifferentiated in that the forms of social respect extended through an acknowledgment and confirmation of dignity are equal among all community members.

Problems associated with racial dignity and the way forward:- This brings me back to initial question.." how come in today's world a particular race is deemed more inferior than another and vice versa..?" The answer to that question is not farfetched. For centuries past, the black race in every part of the globe, had been skilfully brainwashed to the point where he accepted the white man's theory that he, as a Negro, was inferior, however, deep down within us we wanted to believe that we were the equal of any man; but didn't know where to begin or how to resist the influences that had conditioned him to take the least line of resistance and go along with the white man's views. Racial dignity therefore, requires the basic rudiments of understanding that the pursuit of racial justice through legal means demands acknowledgment and confirmation of the essential dignity of persons subordinated on the basis of race.
This requires that one must pay attention to both self worth dignity and communal/societal dignity. Holistic respect for dignity of another requires that one view others as possessing not only inherent dignity at the personal level – that is, equal humanity – but also a presumptive social worth that makes possible sincere inclusion and acceptance into one’s own community.
