Thanks for writing this post. I agree with you 100%. People are individuals regardless of "race" (which is a misnomer anyway, the real term used here should be "ethnicity"). The biological definition of race is that if two people (one male and one female) belong to the same race they can potentially create offspring, which is true for humans. Therefore we all belong to the same race. The differences that exist between us are due to culture and environmental adaptations (culture partly explains the way we act and adaptations to the environment over thousands of years show in our physical features including skin color). I wish people would be less judgmental about other people especially about the color of their skin.
Is it normal that I want to be a different race?
