After reading "Mixed blood," I began questioning what I believe constitutes a persons race. The Google dictionary defines race as "each of the major divisions of humankind, having distinct physical characteristics." However, Fish makes an interesting point about how in different countries, specifically Brazil and the United States view races based on either the "worse race" or distinctive features. It is horrible to think that some races are still seen as worse than others. Evolutionary differences do not make people better or worse than another, people just needed different necessities to survive when we were evolving.
