Due to interracial marriages, do you believe that there will come a time (say a thousand years from now) that there will be no pure Caucasians, Asians & African race? We won't see a "white" or a "black" or a "brown" race but a combination or a new race? What's your opinion on this? Racist remarks will be reported so don't even think about it!

What I' trying to ask is no more PURE white, black & brown but a COMBINATION or a NEW, SINGLE race. An Irish marrying an American have Irish-American kids, A Russian, Russian-American, this isn't what I'm asking because this is not interracial marriage. You still have Caucasian kids when this kind of marriage happens. Brown marrying white or brown marrying black or black marrying white and so on. That's interracial marriage. There will come a time when Caucasians (white), Brown (Asian), Black (African) race will no longer exist but a single kind of race will emerge. Thats the possibility that I'm asking about.

This is the problem with dividing people up by races, and it's why anthropologists tend to avoid it nowadays. But to answer your question...maybe, but it would take much longer than 1,000 years. Then again, how many people do you need to be called a "race." Maybe there's a new race right now?

Is there such a thing as a pure race. Of course there is. If you consider the intermingling over the thousands of years you will find that humanity is now a race of pure individuals who have such a combination of genes in them that I think it hard to find a single human who is not mixed to some degree. Therefor why not consider the race of humanity as already pure and making it purer each and every day?

I asked the same question a few months ago. I believe that in 100 years, most Americans will look like they are related to Vin Diesel, Mariah Carey, or Halle Berry.

i think there are no pure race, even if you can categorize persons into races it's not genetically true, some scientists say that the homo sapiens did mated with neanderthal and we are the combination of these two... so there are no pure white or black, we all share the same DNA, and we're all from the same original soup...

Race is an illusion...because we are all Homo Sapiens, and can produce viable offspring with all members of our species, but I know what you mean!
Think of it this way...Right now our species comes in 3 or 4 distinct "flavors". Perhaps in a thousand years, because of global travel, etc. Homo Sapiens may only come in one generic "flavor"...

that is highly possible. But then again, in a thousand years maybe there will be a renewed form of segregation( and I don't mean that as a racist remark, but I think that that is also possible.)

Well, it's just like what the Indian comedian Russell Peters once said! He believes that one day, because of all of the racial mixing going on, we will all become a hybrid of Chinese and Indian...[because they're the two largest populations in the world!!]
WE WILL ALL BE *BEIGE*. haha

Your a bit behind the times. (no offense intended). Already no "pure" blooded person exists, so, as an answer to you question: it already happened.
