Question PrejudICE/Racism...semantics?

Okay y'all...I think some of us have seen the madness on the "Chit Chat" forum. I was wondering what YOUR opinion is...maybe we can have a candid convo here since most seem to not have the energy to deal with the "other" GCers.

Race: A viable concept? Your definition? In the bigger picture?

My take? RACE is BS. No such thing. As I stated in the thread in Chit Chat, there is nationality, ancestory, heritage, and then there is SKIN COLOR. RACE is a mechanism used to classify and divide.

African-American - NATIONALITY

Black - SKIN COLOR (sorta)

RACE - ???? Little box to check on tests and surveys.
