What? I suppose I do not understand the idea of what you mean by race versus culture but you seemed to state your point below.

By looking at the methods used to acquire it, mainly.

How do you ensure that your emotions/bias are not affecting how you interpret information? I read throughout different philosophies about paradigm shifts, how do you keep yours in check?

There are things that could unite the races, but it's none of what you said. At the moment the only thing that comes to mind would be something like a hostile alien invasion where the differences between us are dwarfed by the differences between us and some opposing force.

Why not though? I guess, I mean, isn't it a mental exercise mostly? All of this. Everything. How we relate, how we develop culture, how we preserve it. Groups and subgroups. I suppose, I should premise, I study human behavior and I study social groups. I like to also look at decision-making and what influences decision-making. I feel that since humans started creating groups - cultural practices have been a way to cement in-group identity. I think the concept of "race" is an interesting one that hasn't always been recognized in early human history (and human categorization) and nowadays, it's often politicized. It's hard not to find research that isn't politicized, in my opinion, because humans are biased. It is hard to meet people who can identify their biases and acknowledge it while looking at information/history and how it influences interpretation.

Not sure what country you're talking about but my country, America, is very far from racially homogeneous. But anyway, the differences between people within a race are generally minor compared to the differences between people of different races.

I am sorry. I am from American - I was referencing to a county but like I said I am just curious to self-awareness, insight, and the driving decisions behind people's beliefs and statements and if they have the ability to recognize how they come to that sound reasoning. Even just linguistically speaking, how people share their thoughts/ideas prompt me to think about self-awareness. I think we all have the ability to see when others have it or not, but I wonder how much we recognize it within ourselves.

Thank you for your response! I value your input on this topic. And I apologize that my questions are unclear as it is late!
