Excluding Ethnicity and Nationality.

Okay let me put this very bluntly and clearly...THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A RACE! A race is a completely biased and made up system of trying to separate human kind from itself. For instance. I just declared that there is no such thing as black people and white people anymore. They will now be blue eyed people and brown eyed people. I have no right to classify humans any way that I want and neither to the ignorant, rich men who decided that race should be defined by the color of some ones skin.

The only true race, in my opinion, is blood type. And there is no way to descriminate against people that way. Because you cant tell by looking at them.

Eliminate the lie that is race and you eliminate racism. Huh, interesting concept. And another side note I'd like to add. I have never seen a white or a black or a brown person. I'm pretty sure we arn't solid colors.

Hm...race, excluding ethnicity and nationality. Dude, that's what "race" is. Consider for a moment, that we are all the same, save ethnic background and nationality (to a lesser degree).

If everyone was of the same ethnic background, we would all be the same color...probably a darker tan or a mocha brown. Also, this would rule out the need for nationalities based on differences in culture dictated by who kept to what areas of the world, because they were afraid of the people of other colors, and travel was brutally harsh and inefficient way back in the feudal/medieval days.

So, excluding ethnicity and nationality, what "race" are you?

I am the mixed child who is ridiculed for my lack of ability to simply blend in. I am the Hispanic who came to America in hopes of a new future, yet finding only a wall of steriotypical bias. I am the African American who has had a life filled with hardships which led to an early grave on the street. I am the Caucasion who carries the label of racist before a word is said, but would lay my life on the line for a stranger of any ethnicity. What race am I you ask? I am a member of that which is truely superior yet widely looked over, the human race.

race is a social construction in Ghambia they thought that white people were the returned ancient dead. and that they were white due to their closeness to the "source of existance".

Ethnicity is a function of migrancy

your kids will be racially white and nationality Italian -american
