How Do You Feel About Yourself

Poll - Total Votes: 16

I feel good about my race

I feel bad about my race

I am indifferent about my race

You can only vote on one answer.

Specifically, about your race -

"The term race refers to groups of people who have differences and similarities in biological traits deemed by society to be socially significant, meaning that people treat other people differently because of them. For instance, while differences and similarities in eye color have not been treated as socially significant, differences and similarities in skin color have."

So, do you feel good, bad or indifferent about your race?

I think the concept of "race" needs to be reassessed. I firmly believe there is only one race: human, homo sapiens. The characteristics used to distinguish people groups have more to do with "ethnicity" and culture, traditions. Whenever I'm asked to identify my race, I respond "human" or mark "other", because the features considered "racial" in nature are determined by less than one percent of our shared DNA. Everything else comprises our humanity, differentiating us not from each other, but from every other species on this planet.

My answer to the question is yes I feel good, and yes, I feel bad. We still have a long way to go in the refinement process.
