Race Race – Study Room

Is race a biologically accurate way to classify people? Explain
How much genetic variation exists within the human species? How is that variation distributed among different local populations?
Why do we see variation in human skin color (i.e., dark and light skin pigmentations are adaptations to what?)?
What does it mean to say that race has been reified (definition of reify: to make something abstract more concrete or real)? What are some biological or social examples of the way that race has been reified?
What do we know about the connections between race and health/disease?
What do you find interesting about the way race is defined in other cultures (refer to the Global Census activity)?
