I'm thinking "race" is more than a social construct, obviously. But I agree that it shouldn't matter. But why are we always having to answer other than doctors' information sheets with our race/ethnicity? Quotas?

I was thinking about this issue earlier, and remembering when I went to Hawaii how impressed I was that they as a state are not that caring about "race." In fact, they are encouraged to intermarry. Remember that's where Obama is from.

I hope I have not offended anyone. That wasn't my goal. I was just trying to jumps tart the topic. I will leave, too, now--and I hope this thread continues. But I will place this issue in the community forum for a forum on this subject to get started.
