I agree completely. We are all of one race: the human race. There is no other.
Just as our relatives don't all look alike or even have the same complexion,
so to are our brothers of all colors and nationalities still our brothers. The
only people that don't believe this are the ones that due to their own
misplaced lack of self esteem have to believe they are superior to someone
else. What they fail to see it the flip side of that coin. That is, if you are
better than someone else then that means there is someone out there that is
superior to you. I don't know about you but I know there isn't any son of gun
that is better than I am.
