Race as we understand it is a construct. I didn't say there aren't any biological differences between people from around the wold but race is a social construct. There are physical/ biological differences between different ethnic groups of black people around the world, but with the way we view race they're still simply categorised as black. The fact that how i'm categorised is dependent on the era and/or location i'm in proves this.
