I find it interesting to read that "Foo is not a race." I thought it was pretty established that "race" is a dodgy thing, at best. Such that any collection of people that have been together for a long time would ultimately qualify.

Back to the readings for me, it seems.




You could consider "Italian" to be a race; but Italy is just the country where Italians happen to be from.


If Italian is not a race, it surely is a tribal identity that transcends the borders of Italy the country.


I think every person reading malpractice is huge in Italy, took that as Italians are huge in malpractice...

And, I still see race as a dodgy concept.
