Maybe the title should be Race, what is it good for...
In my diary post yesterday, I shared a couple of videos that I put together that attempt to speak as honestly as I can about the race question. In a thread there, someone mentioned that we really should think about the origins of race.
I put this video together last year in response to a conversation I was having with a friend about how black people should move forward. Because he couldn't get past this fundamental understanding, we couldn't really get to very many issues. Most simply put, race has no biological basis. It is simply a political and relatively modern construct.
Please take a look at the video and let me know what you think.
