“Show me race is genetic”

That one has a really easy answer. If race wasn’t genetic, then two white parents could give birth to a Chinese baby, or two black parents could have a fair-skinned redhead. That has literally never happened in the history of the world. Skin color is 100% determined by genetics.

I wonder why when looking for organ donors for (mixed kids especially), where it says "race", why doesn't everyone just list "Human"? Then there's no way that the transfusions, organs or T-cells could ever be racist enough to reject them.

Yes, /s.

I remember a medical article from a while ago, where researchers suddenly realized that medications affect different sexes and races differently. They had never bothered studying it before because the unspoken assumption was everyone was basically the same. Whoops.
