What about the Aborigines or the Native Americans?......the list goes on and on of other races left out.
To me, that is so stupid.

Because our society was built on judgments, I think it is sad that we as humans feel the need to categorize ourselves...we are all simply humans...sharing a planet.

Origination ... the first people had to categorize by origins of "people in other nations. THis defined the color, language at points around the world. Hence, the names of the people today. USA, English, African and so on..... simplicity.... have a great day.............

I agree. Yeah, you've got people telling you it's done all in the name of science and blah blah blah, but it's as menacing as it is 'helpful.' You take it as you may.
They base people's races according to their skeletal structure or something. Believe me, I'm no expert in this topic, but I know enough of it to justify its absurdity. I've come across black people who carry the skeletal structure of a 'caucasoid' and vice versa.
Each and every single one of us has been a product of interracial marriages. We don't need our skulls to tell us that.
