So, racism still exists in America, and why? I suggest it is due to the breakdown of education in America. We learn more from our parents thoughts and concepts, than we do at school, because we don't have a convincing education, that helps learners to decipher between truth and false information. By now, most of us have seen, read, or discovered that we are all made up of multiple races, dating back to the Denosivins, and the Neanderthals. So, how can any of us judge another persons race or color? Most of you might be surprised to find out that you have minority blood in you somewhere.
Genetic studies, and DNA recognition has proven without a doubt that we are all formed of a mixed background. Therefore, everyone on Earth should consider themselves brothers and sisters, and stop all the racism and judgement.
With DNA, the normal talk about race has no truth to it. Neither Blacks, Whites, or any color or race has an essential DNA makeup. Of course, certain races do have genetic characteristics with their own population, but they are not exclusive to any one group. Environment in your region do take effect on your genetic makeup as well, but mostly this shows differences within a race, not between races. For example, certain diseases once thought to only affect one race, have now found to trangress multiple races. Such as Sickle-cell Anemia, Sarcoidosis, which this White Anglo-Saxon, German, American Indian only has 1% chance of suffering from, yet I do anyway. I do not know all of my genetic makeup as of yet. I hope to get my DNA kit this year, and find out. I like to believe that there is more to me than just Scottish, Welsh, Irish, German and American Indian. I believe I have South American or African blood in me somehow, as I mostly associate with the culture of these two areas of the world, more than any other cultures. But, maybe not. You can now prove who you are through companies such as My Heritage, 23 and Me, and FamilytreeDNA, just to name a few.
The UK has also launced the 100,000 Genomes project, in which they are harvesting thousand of genomes every week. More secrets about European background will be discovered through this project. As genetics has shown, at no point in out history have we stuck to our own kind when recreating. We have a huge diverse population all over the world, whether you like it or not, and it goes back to the beginning of man, and the mixture of Neanderthal's and Denisovins. In fact, there is proof that Sub-Saharian people mixed with the Neanderthal's of Europe, and created a whole new melding pot of humans, with mixed DNA, which most of us have at least 1% of left in our blood.
Look at this young mans video on his 23andme DNA makeup and health possibilities. He is very smart, and gives a great breakdown of his DNA. Enjoy and get your kit as soon as possible, and know who you really are!
To quote a fellow writer, "Race doesn't exist, racism does. But we can now confine it to opinions and not pretend that there might be any scientific validity in bigotry" (Adam Rutherford - The Ovserver/Genetics), that exists in many cultures still, and especially across America to this day! A country that supposedly strives for equality of all people...
So, if you are lucky enough to read this article, and have not thought about such things, you are now educated on the fact that you are not really part of a greather or lesser race, but the same as all the rest of us, and for that reason, we should all work together in this world on equal footing. Are there more intelligent beings? Of course, and this probably is due to genetic makeup, but it is not due to your race. We are pretty assured at this point, that geniuses span all races across the world, so it is not just White Supremacists that think they are the Supreme beings that should rule the world. No, we should all rule the world together.
