I have been looking at the Human Genome Project as part of a research paper that I am writing and I found a page that I think is very important and should be spread far and wide.
There are NO human subspecies. That means there is only ONE human race and we are all a part of it. Hating someone for skin color is as stupid as hating someone for eye or hair color.
This also means that there is no genetic reason differences in performance in any area of life, it all comes down to socio-economic factors.

Yep :-) Most anthropologists have known this for a long time.
They don't say "race" they say "ancestry."
