The term was first used to refer to speakers of a common language, and then to denote national affiliations. By the 17th century, the term began to refer to physical (phenotypical) traits.Modern science regards race as a social construc |

Our differences don't stop on the outside. Are blacks, whites, asians ect different subspecies? |

Those that see a difference are either oppressors or oppressed. Genetics and race "Neither race nor ethnicity is detectable in the human genome. Humans do have genetic variations, some of which were once associated with ancestry from different parts of the world. But those variations cannot be tracked to distinct biological categories. Genetic tests cannot be used to verify or determine race or ethnicity, though the tests themselves are associated with an increased belief in racial differences."

Since we're still able to reproduce together we are the same species, however that's not very helpful. Something needed to be made up to differentiate called race. That is also divided up by regions often times since races divided by only skin colors can themselves can be quite different. |

Do you see gazelles and deer mating? No.... Do you see horses and zebras crossbreeding naturally? No... Do you see Robins and Bluebirds making mixed babies. No.... See the pattern....humans are NO different. |

Example: African Americans have low levels of "renin", so certain drug classes (ACE, ARB, etc) that work on the renin pathway are rarely, if ever, prescribed. These drugs work wonders in Caucasians though.

Are coyotes and dogs different species? They can interbreed. Since they are similar, yet different, are they not varients of a kind, different races of felines and canines?
