In the book Racial Formation in the United States written by Michael Omi and Howard Winant, They state that some people think "race is an essance" while others think of "race as an illusion," what do you think?
Moreover, what do you think about the implications of race regaurding the purpose or your organizations?

Hello Anessa,
Looking at race from the perspective of Anthropology, it originated from a combination of climatology and migration. If you want me to continue, e-mail me privately.
As for the role of race regarding the purpose of my fraternity, check out my response to the EBONY ISSUE.... in the Alpha Kappa Alpha list.
