It’s one of those words that get to me.
There are a few. I think my spelling and such is usually alright, but some words I start and just get lost in before the end. Psychology is another. I need a spell check to get it right.

hate, segregate, treat differently.... am I or was I doing anything like that? Do you think I am walking around thinking that whatever wasn't done by white man is a total shit? Dude, I live in Toronto, the most cosmopolitan city in the world, and I can tell you I like the mix very much. I know here profs who are black and have degrees from Harvard - I'd exchange my brain with thiers anytime. About 80% of my daily communication is happening with Chinese people only. I am the only non-Chinese in our office room. They are my friends. I can assure you I am totally devoid of any hate or anything. No one has done to me anything, so why I should hate them?
How exactly did you come to a conclusion I have to hate people who are not like me?

at home we have this saying: to speak - silver, being silent - gold. should probably follow it next time.

no, that's not what i mean. i don't believe that you are descriminating (acting out your prejudice views)... I just believe that you're being prejudice. It only takes the act of prejudice to keep the idea of race alive. so, just by continuing to have those views and beliefs keeps the idea alive. that's all.

ella. there are races and they can be identified genetically. that's not the problem; the problem is people making erroneous conclusions about individuals based on their personal prejudices. if you take race out of the equation these people will just find some other reason to discriminate (religion, language, manner of dress, social customs etc.)

race is only a sociological idea. the idea of a biological race is based only on the mistaken concept of a genetically isolated human group.
biologically there are no pure, individual races.
if anything... DNA research has proven that the idea of race does not exist in a biological sense.

well we're still able to tell them apart visually.
i'm pretty sure that DNA and genetics were unheard of when the word "race" came about.

No.... what are the biological differences between races?
--Physical appearance? and that's it... correct? or are you going to exaggerate and state that blacks are better sportsmen too?
soo... if we say that the ONLY biological difference between races consists in ones physical appearance... that alone cannot support the idea of a biologically inferior or superior race--
The biological differences within a certain race are much greater than any differences between two races.

this reminds me of a sketch by an absurd humorist group from quebec, called the chick & swell.
a guy finds out from his doctor that he's a buman. which, the doctor says, is exactly like a human except it starts with a b.

then they show him being constantly discriminated for being a buman in everyday situations...

ella, people should stop thinking that science now has all the answers.
next year we might discover something new like an extension to the DNA concept and then we'll be able to spot the differences between races.

Oh boy... biology is based on genetics...

soooooooooooo..... any genetic study is a biological study... and if a genetic study dismisses the idea of race.. it therefore dismisses the biological idea of race.
