Is There a Bias in Race?
Sophew: I feel like you're making a potentially dangerous move in disavowing any relevant biology here. It's not an accident that you can know something about a person's ancestry based on just looking at them, right? The place where there's the most genetic diversity at this moment on earth is on the continent of africa. And i think the the place we need to get to in transcending race is not to deny that these biological facts exist and may yet surprise us. But rather than commit ourselves, in advance, to remaining unaware of them or denying they exist.
