    Race is a social construct.

    "Social construct" is something sociologists made up.

    It is a social construct itself.

    It is truly a shame that race relations have deteriorated so much in this country. You would think a half black / half white President would be a unifier, not a divider.

    It trivializes the underlying historical societal paradigms and original anthropological function of the cultural constructs. Simultaneously it entangles the association of individuals in the group with certain customs, behaviors and perspectives that might contradict those of their host culture and limit their opportunities for assimilation and social advancement.

    Yes, it's a shame all it took was a black President to bring back all the racist crazies we left back in 1955.

    What if she is black pretending to be white, but only so she can pretend to be black and purposely get caught and humiliated to make white liberals look evil.

    Sound like the plot for Blackception.

    There is no such think as a black race, it is in fact made up. It was made by racists though not liberals. The idea was to point out the difference in skin color in order to separate us. Enslave one "race" and label the other race superior. People did not always identify as black or white, you were from where you were from. In fact black people in America on average each have 20% of European DNA. Every "white" person in America has at least 1% African DNA.

    Repped.

    Sad thing is no one will stand up for this point of view.

    It happens to be the one backed up by #science.

    That's true, I think it was Bill Clinton who said it amazes him the amount of people who "don't believe" in climate change despite the mountain of evidence. People only hear what they want to hear despite the truth.

    Because they are two separate things.

    Scientists have long suspected that the racial categories recognized by society are not reflected on the genetic level.

    But the more closely that researchers examine the human genome -- the complement of genetic material encased in the heart of almost every cell of the body -- the more most of them are convinced that the standard labels used to distinguish people by "race" have little or no biological meaning.

    They say that while it may seem easy to tell at a glance whether a person is Caucasian, African or Asian, the ease dissolves when one probes beneath surface characteristics and scans the genome for DNA hallmarks of "race."

    As it turns out, scientists say, the human species is so evolutionarily young, and its migratory patterns so wide, restless and rococo, that it has simply not had a chance to divide itself into separate biological groups or "races" in any but the most superficial ways.

    "Race is a social concept, not a scientific one," said Dr.

    African and Black are not the same thing. One is a place another is a color. Black describes people with color. In truth you can have a "white" mother and a black father and still just be Black. If you look Black, that is you have dark skin then you are Black because Black is not a race it does not matter where your parents are from. This is why people are confused, because basically it was made up. A lot of black people don't even know what black is. You will here them describe African and Black as the same thing. The President is called the first black president even though he has a "white" mom because of the color of his skin. If we still had slavery today our President would be a slave because of the color of his skin. Scientifically though, there is no such thing as the races black and white.

    I think you're trying to hold colloquialisms to a rigid definition.
