Re: The Race of His Life (Score: 1)
by bystander on Wednesday, February 09 @ 15:03:04 EST
(User Info | Send a Message) | Well here are some quotes from the article I posted:
"Many anthropologists say that when bone marrow matches are sought, using race may slow the process of finding a match. "
"This thing called race is not a biological reality. His match was found as far away as possible. This could have been used as a critical educational opportunity, but the article simply noted that a match was found. It was a bizarre experience."
"Biomedicine has had a hard time dealing with human variation," she said. "We can't talk about discreet groups when it comes to biology. Yet in this country we continue to emphasize the categorization of people."
I find it funny that people draw completely different conclusions from reading the articles, one that race doesn't exist and the other that it definitely does.
