Race-the Power of Illusion
In this article it is discussed whether the concept of race really actually exist. It states that we as humans are all part of one similar race that among the years have adapted into their own society. People look different because their bodies have adapted to their conditions. For example in hot climates with a lot of sun, having dark skin and curly hair can subcutaneously help against the heat.This is why it is possible that African's gained these traits to  be able to survive in their environments. We are all part of a superior group and so the question is posed, are we all really so different?
 I think this makes a very important point. It is possible indeed that we are all part of a similar race. Even in the bible it is believe that we all came from a group of people called Adam and Eve. It is true that the characteristic developed by each group of people was made to help them survive in their environment.
Is there such thing as race?
