I'll try to be concise and short.  The term race is really a Marxist Construct. It aligns with Identity Politics. Identity politics is placing people into "boxes" either by race, disability, gender, etc., and then turning them against each other. "Race" is exactly that, it identifies people of the same skin color, eye color, hair color, the same rituals, etc, and places them into boxes.

"Race is understood by most people as a mixture of physical, behavioral, and cultural attributes," said Nina Jablonski, an anthropologist and palaeobiologist at The Pennsylvania State University, who is known for her research into the evolution of human skin color.

"Ethnicity recognizes differences between people mostly on the basis of language and shared culture." said Jablonski

That quote, taken from a Live Science article, shows how far the far-left radicals have saturated our scientific realm with their tainted beliefs. While I do my best to keep all my articles non-biased, it plainly shows in that quote. It's rather disturbing.

But in essence, what she said is rather true. They're looking just for physical traits, not anything of cultural values when it comes to race. Race if you do your research traces back through Europe. To the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (The USSR) when people were escaping WWI and WWII into the allied countries and America. Here is one article that I found when I dove into the rabbit hole of a subject.

Why are they on forms everywhere including official government forms? My guess is that on the Federal forms it was put on during a Democrat administration, and the next Republican administration was too lazy to have it changed, even if it was racist. This topic people just don't know about due to the misinformation out there about it. So I encourage everyone to educate others about it and to do their own research.

The word race is part of the "Big lie" and as long as we keep using the term, we keep propagating the Democrat's lie.
