Ok, I firmly believe that RACE truly is only a social construct but let me go out on a limb here.......

RUGreek,

Could one of the reasons you believe race is a biological construct be due to the fact that there are certain diseases that are inherently found in those of African descent (for example Sickle Cell Anemia)?

Really besides something like this, I know within the African American community we come is ALL SHADES, ALL SKIN FEATURES, ALL HAIR TYPES, ETC., so I am really trying to understand you point.
