The Myth and Tragedy of Race

Race does not exist. What actually exists biologically is human behaviour. And human behaviour when analysed anthropologically you begin to see that race is a social construct a mechanistic tool used to divide. Of course well informed people with a good biological understanding know this. So why do we continue to perpetuate the myth of race? Because human beings need to feel important.

We all have stories that we have to tell ourselves. But back to this idea of race. Was white slavery a social construct perpetuated by a people wth better resources, and technological advancements you could say yes? But for those chained up social dominance was not a motive.

To them togetherness and family are virtues. To them what happened was upheaval bedlam, and total separation because for them their culture is their identity the way they cook their meals together is their identity . Their way of life was their identity. Now early settlers of all countries believed in colonisation was the way forward for mankind. Colonisation through force. Not colonisation through togetherness. Learn from history the answer to the race problem is to forget race, and to become unified as one human race. Now that does not mean we have to forget our religions, or philosophies what this means is that as an entire group of people our main goal should be togetherness.
