Race is biology and ethnicity is culture!

Race is biological. Ethnicity is cultural. So an example would be someone who's American in their ethnicity because they were born and raised in America, but their physical characteristics belong to a certain race, such as African.

@Reject And there’s the gun culture too. But the best is NFL football 🏈

@SimplyTracie True. It's pretty messy over here, but NFL football is fun. I especially love the half time show! 😁 It's the best part!

Yup- ethnicity is derived from the environment in which a person is raised- including languages too.

Race is a man-made construct and isn’t a thing- we are all the same human race; we may differ in obvious ways in appearance, but we are all the same race.

Race is that one thing and ethnicity is the other one.

A race is a group of people with common ancestry or ethnicity.

Ethnicity is the group you identify with.
