Race is a biological thing and of course it's real. Why can't we just accept that there are different races and be proud of that?
We're one species, and should hold together as one, be there for each other, empathize with each other. But saying we're one race is like saying we all have the same hair color... Why would we act like this isn't real, instead of accepting that it is okay that there are variations?
There are different skin colors, hair textures, nose shapes, etc. That human variation is all real. What isn't real is race. That is to say, these phenotypes don't combine into meaningful or stable categories that reflect some reality outside culture.
Hot damn. I was just about to say that I like the view but it disagrees with biology - then googled it to be sure, and saw that this is actually true. In biology, humans aren't categorized into races anymore. I had no idea! I learned something today.
