yes, there is. "race" can mean different things. Do you seriously correct someone when they say "the african american race?" you know precisely what they mean. stop being stupid.

Actually that is ridiculously untrue.

There is no such scientific class as race. Sociologists group people in terms of ethnicity, culture, and nationality.

Race is a pseudo scientific term which lumps people together based on arbitrary observations, such as skin color or eye shape.

Terms like Caucasoid, Negroid, and Mongoloid were used as tools by a small group of people (supported by a large racist population) in mainly America to give them a base from which they could erroneous-legitimately start building pseudoscience with an edge for ethnocentrism.

Racism, as a term, is still valid in that it encompasses the negative feelings and actions of people who erroneously see race as a basis for discrimination of people.

of african american descent.

It does not mean they start with the racial passive of eating chicken faster than normal and getting extra regen from grape drank.

your skin pigment determines your race in most situations. how more simple can it get? there are cultural connotations that are constructed and placed upon you by society based on this information. that doesn't make them any less real.

This guy's parents had darker skin, but he doesn't. I also don't think that his parent's had black skin. I've never seen ANYONE with black skin.
