In all actuality, there's only one race: the human race.
Take for example, cows. There are white, black, and brown colored cows. Would anybody consider these cows different "races"?

I understand that, but for scientific purposes you can't negate the existence of racial classifications.

There's no such thing as race. There's melanin. Black people have more of it. White people have less.
The idea of "race" in reference to skin tones didn't exist before the 1800s. People used to associate race with nationality; such as the "english" race or the "assyrian" race. The idea of race in association with skin color came up after Darwin published his book about evolution, an inherently racist philosophy. Racism of skin tones existed before then, of course. But it was amplified after the philosophy of evolution was popularized.
Scientists agree that, biologically, there's only one blood.
If you disagree with this concept, would you like to have a debate about this?
Krazy:
how is evolution racist?

Actually Darwin's second book specifically refuted the notion that there are multiple human races. In fact he spent the entire book proving it. Of course it wasn't definitively proven until melanin was discovered etc, but of all the early biologists, Darwin was probably the most in opposition to racism.

It teaches that blacks are lower than whites. If that's not what it teaches, then it certainly gives off that impression. In fact, there was an evolutionary textbook in the 1920s that was in some U.S. public schools that specifically taught that the highest race were the european caucasians, while the lowest race of homo sapiens were the blacks from a certain region of Africa. They probably don't have that textbook anymore, but it's interesting to note.

That's interesting. However, a lot of people have used evolution in support of racism.
Krazy:
That was in the 1920s, when people also believes in gender roles like you do.

Lol. Would you like to have a debate on this? Not on gender roles. But the notion that morality changes?
Krazy:
What don't you get through your head? I'm not debating something this simple.

So you don't want to debate it?
