I find race quite arbitrary, what does the amount of pigment in a person's skin have to do with their value as a person?

I wish with all of my heart that this was the case but race goes deeper than melanin.

To me it doesn't, I view it as nothing more than pigment that influences how the sun affects you.

Native Americans are better at storytelling. It's genetic.

You don't think having a culture that places an emphasis on verbal historical records might have an influence on that?

I thought race didn't exist? Now you're arguing for a genetic basis for race?
