Biologically speaking race is not a thing. However; you might he able to make an argument for different groups of humans around the world being "subspecies" due to local adaptations to their environments and their genetic diversity.
My parents are gypsy and they faced discrimination for it back home, when we came down LonDon and we started telling people we were just white, it stopped. The concept of race is so stupid to me, if you believe it you're just carrying forward the propaganda of the elite trying to divide the working class.
It all comes down to evolution. We all come from Africa, but when a group migrated north, they lost the dark skin gene because of less sunlight. And race was born
pretty much it’s a social construct that is so far engrained there’s nothing that we can change now right?
same reason why racists talk about head shape
weird
what does this mean i’m not familiar

race science is nonsense and usually said by nazis who say s*** like black people have x head shape so their brains are small blah blah
There's more genetic diversity within the population of sub-Saharan Africa itself than literally all of the rest of the world's population combined, yet all sub-Saharan Africans are lumped into the same "race" of "black".
The concept of race is a social construct that was created as a means to justify the colonialism, imperialism and racialized slavery that was being committed by the West, and it still serves the purpose of justifying racial inequalities and imperialism perfectly well to this day.

The same kind of animal evolves differently in different environments. Have we been around long enough to evolve like that? I don't think so.

we have, its facial features and colour of skin
Of course it exists. Different race does not mean different species. Obviously we’re all human but there are definite phenotypic and genetic differences between races. We just needed something to call it and they came up with race.
It's a social construct. If you believe in race you need to acknowledge that there are multiple black races. sciencemag.org/news/2017/10/new-gene-variants-reveal-evolution-human-skin-color
Most issues we have in society boil down to how we stereotype people based on their outward appearance be it race, height, weight, age, sex, disability, you name it. And we could fix most of that if we allowed others to tell their story and respect their individuality instead of trying to put them into a certain group with others who share those features.
It's a social construct but like... It's different.
It exists and people are oppressed for it, so a simple answer of its not real doesn't work.
I think the classification of “race” is manmade, but we’re def not all the same, although we share a lot of similarities in behavior and spirit
Only in Mprth America. Oerseas people see you as Itslian or Indian or where ever you are from. In North America people say black, brown, white etc.
Been doing some research after this thread and found out whiteness is only 7000 years old
Also before invention of the wheel we had many more "races" than today cause people were not mixing, groups in the middle east were more diverse than the world today
