Race is a social construct that categorizes people into different groups based on physical characteristics such as skin color, hair type, and facial features.
-
These categorizations have been historically used to establish hierarchies, resulting in discrimination, prejudice, and unequal treatment.
-
Race is not a biological concept, as there is greater genetic variation within racial groups than between them.

Understanding race as a social construct helps to challenge and dismantle systems of oppression and promote equality and inclusion.
