These flaws make the biological basis of the race concept an untenable idea. The first flaw with the biological basis of the race concept is that features attributed to race vary in a clinal fashion rather than being broken into different categories. Perhaps the most iconic feature attributed to race is skin color, but skin color cannot be broken into discrete categories. As “Race the Power of an Illusion” demonstrated in the first episode, skin color variation in humans can be seen as a gradient where the similarity between variations can be determined by geographical distance.
People should not judge one another and feel so surprised if they see a individual who does not look anything like a Latino and should not criticizes that person. There are wide, diverse experiences in competition with the stereotypical images. So people are constantly judged by these images. Every Latino is unique in their own way and should not have to explain to a person why they do not look like a Latino because may come in all shapes, colors, and sizes. Society should realize that not every race will look identical because of the parents genetics which can have a big changes in how the Latino may look.
Just like artificial intelligence, genetic
They also share many similarities such as, economics, artistics, and social classes. The Indus River valley and Sumer have differences between the two of them. Those differences are their religion, politics, and their language. The Indus River valley and Sumer’s religion are different because Sumer’s religion was anthropocentric and The Indus River valley had multiple religions such as animalism, buddhism, polytheistic, and jainism.

Race exists as long as we believe it exists, but really, it's just a classification system developed by people. It has no meaning or value apart from what we determine it to have. According to researchers there is no genetics for division of human ethnicity, in the sense that different groups inherit distinctive physical traits for example hair, eye, and skin color, race is a reality. Race can be used in prejudice discriminative way to create a barrier, built within people’s minds in society. Which leads one race being superior to another and of there being pure races, race is a myth.
Differences ranging from the “color, hair, shape of skull, proportions of the body, etc.” (Darwin 213), are too small to even have affected the role of natural selection, however, if they were or were not important, then over the years, these differences would have, “fixed and preserved or eliminated” (Darwin 217) due to natural selection. Nevertheless, there is no prominent variation, even among people who live in different climates. Therefore, these differences are negligible compared to the similarities. Moreover, Darwin believes, “none of the differences between the races of man are of any direct or special service to him” (Darwin 217).
Evolutionary considerations are not conclusive either, because it is only pain behaviour, and not the experience of pain itself, that would be advantageous in the struggle for survival. Harrison concludes that since the strongest argument for the claim that animals are conscious fails, one should not believe that they are
Throughout “Are Humans One Race or Many?” , Alfred Russell Wallace asserts that human races, despite initially sharing an ancestry line, diversified due to the unique environments each group resided in. Wallace’s thesis postulates that the environment’s “physical peculiarities” (Wallace 218) and specific “climate, food, and habitat” (Wallace 219) are the underlying influences behind the growth of each race. Wallace believes that as human races fostered physical strength and higher thinking, humanity bypassed natural order and established superiority between human races.
Your race is determined by how you look while your ethnicity is based on the social and cultural groups you belong to. You can have multiple ethnicities but you are said to have a single race, even if it's "mixed race". Despite the social importance of race, the collections of common physical characteristics and the tags we use to define it can alter greatly over time. Ethnicity, meanwhile, may correspond with cultural habits such as the foods we appreciate, the languages we speak, and how we
Upon reading the assigned section, I found Richard Robbin’s views on human behavior to be incredibly enlightening. His discussion of human perception drove me into a deeper state of critical thought than I’ve experienced from an assigned reading. Due to the extreme variation in culture among groups of people, our perceptions of life will vary from person to person. Most humans share a common desire for necessities such as a source of food, water, and a permanent structure to occupy. Besides the basic requirements for survival and reproduction, many cultures view the world in vastly different ways.
