True - I guess I was thinking there were 3 races - Caucasion, Asian, and Negroid. Are there more than that? Would Indian be considered Asian?
Yes. British newspapers frequently refer to “Asians” when they are talking about Indians... Strange but true...
A race is a sub-species. To qualify as a race a group must be: 1) Interbreeding. 2) In a geographically distinct area. 3)Physiologically distinct.
By that definition you could make the case that the Amish are a race.
Indians are considered caucasian (my husband is from India) but their actual skin color can be a variety of shades. My husband is about as dark as Dennis Haysbert (President David Palmer on 24 and also on those Allstate commercials)http://tinyurl.com/3yvmrm
I never have figured out that whole color-ethnicity quota thing myself. I’m with MLK on the ‘judge someone on who they are, not what they look like’ philosophy.
