Abstract
To claim that race does not exist sounds shocking at first. So many decisions and views of the world are made taking the idea of race into account. Yet the genetic claims of race, as such claims usually perceived and discussed, are not grounded in genetics because race, aside from being a social construction, does not actually exist. Collins (2004) makes the issue clear: the human species does not have "races", even though much of human history is about race and ethnicity.
race, as it is defined by human beings, is a quirk of genetic code. race is a pile of traits that get lumped together by human bigotry, even though the idea of race is, in and of itself, racist because amalgamating these disparate expressions of genetic code into an identifiable definition that stereotypes lacks a spirit of tolerance for the rights and views of others.
