American Thinker: A subversive idea - the end of race

Chief Justice John Roberts: 'The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race." 

Thomas Kuhn, in his The Structure of Scientific Revolutions argued that science is not a steady, cumulative acquisition of knowledge.  Instead, “science is a series of peaceful interludes punctuated by intellectually violent revolutions.”  After such revolutions, “one conceptual world view is replaced by another”.  It is time for another revolution and this one involves the entire concept of race.

As a scientific fact, the black race doesn’t exist. Neither does the white or Asian.  There is no race gene.  In the year 2000, when the scientists at the National Institutes of Health announced that they had put together a draft of the entire sequence of the human genome, the researchers unanimously declared that there is only one race -- the human race.

The Hispanic “race” didn’t even exist until the 1970 census -- they needed some classification for “them.”  Here is a subversive idea; what if there truly isn’t any “them?”  What if the whole concept of “them” is simply a creation of our classification?  One can take data and classify it in a myriad of ways, but the classification doesn’t become real in any physical sense. 

If we treat the idea of race like any other scientific concept; old, invalid thinking must be discarded when new discoveries are made. Often this demands a profound shift in thinking.  Copernicus's discovery that the earth is not the center of the universe is an example of a similar realization that demanded this type of profound shift . . .

Whether we like it or not, there is no scientific basis for the concept of race and focusing on a human invention will never solve the problem of racism.  Let the revolution begin.
