Race is a point of discrimination that springs from the heart of xenophobia. The only difference in color that really matters is the difference between day and night.

There was a comic novelist in the 1950's named Max Shulman, and in one of his books, "Anyone, got a match?" was one of the best descriptive lines about race. "There is only one race, the human race." which I thought summed up nicely how questions of race should be answered.

Note: In another Max Shulman book, "The Many Loves of Doby Gillis", I got my first exposure to "logical fallacies" and they were explained in a very comic an understandable way. There was later a TV show, Doby Gillis, based on the book, which is actually a collection of short stories with the main character of Doby Gillis. Anyway, the point of this mote was that nowhere in high school or college was I taught "logical fallacies", which I had to learn form a 1950's comic novel, which really points out in part how the dumbing down of America happened.

Race is a social construct to divide and label people. I wish I was as color blind as my dog.

Race is not real but genetics is very real in terms of gene expression as is culture and ethnicity.

Powerful and true. If I remember nothing else from this, I want to remember the phrase "post racist society."

Edit: that one silly word makes a difference. Added a missing "else."
