I agree!! People can call themselves ANYTHING. And they can check any box.

Race is primarily a social/cultural construct in the U.S. and not a scientific one.

I beleive that I am pretty good at determining someones racial background (not necessarily cultural) but I only identified 6/20 properly. I wish that I could have enlarged the pictures; I am sure I would have done better
