Of course, individuals vary greatly within each racial group and should be treated as such.

Of course, individuals vary greatly within each racial group and should be treated as such.

Formation of a new race takes place when, over several generations, individuals in one group reproduce more frequently among themselves than they do with individuals in other groups.

Deconstructing the concept of race not only conflicts with people's tendency to classify and build family histories according to common descent but also ignores the work of biologists studying non-human species.

We emigrated to South Africa and later to Canada so I went to school in several places.

Nonetheless, much has been learned by studying the statistical differences between the various human races.

Sometimes it is claimed by those who argue that race is just a social construct that the human genome project shows that because people share roughly 99% of their genes in common, that there are no races. This is silly.
