Coon, divided humanity into five races:

The world population can be divided into 4 major races, namely white/Caucasian, Mongoloid/Asian, Negroid/Black, and Australoid. This is based on a racial classification made by Carleton S. Coon in 1962.

In the 19th century and in the early 20th century, many scientists divided human beings into three races. White people were called “Caucasoid race”, black people were called “Negroid race”, and the people of East Asia and Southeast Asia were called “Mongoloid race”.

• Negroid (Black) race.
• Australoid (Australian Aborigine and Papuan) race.
• Capoid (Bushmen/Hottentots) race.
• Mongoloid (Oriental/Amerindian) race.
• Caucasoid (White) race.

The Sandawe are descended from some of the first humans and shared a common ancestor with the San tribe, who are believed to be the oldest race in the world.

Scientists are sure that Homo sapiens first evolved in Africa, and we know that every person alive today can trace their genetic ancestry to there. It has long been thought that we began in one single east or south African population, which eventually spread into Asia and Europe.

The French Grand Prix, which returned to the Formula 1 calendar in 2018 after a 10-year absence, is the oldest grand prix in the world. How can we be so sure? Simple: it hosted the first-ever motor race, way back in 1906, the first international event ever to be labelled a grand prix.

Anthropologists support the idea that anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens) evolved in North or East Africa from an archaic human species such as H. heidelbergensis and then migrated out of Africa, mixing with and replacing H. heidelbergensis and H. neanderthalensis populations throughout Europe and Asia, and H. …

These two concepts (race and ethnicity) are often confused despite their subtle differences. Race includes phenotypic characteristics such as skin color, whereas ethnicity also encompasses cultural factors such as nationality, tribal affiliation, religion, language and traditions of a particular group.

The Revisions to OMB Directive 15 defines each racial and ethnic category as follows:

• American Indian or Alaska Native.
• Asian.
• Black or African American.
• Hispanic or Latino.
• Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander.
• White.

Ethnic and racial identities are important for many young people, particularly those who are members of minority groups. These dimensions of the self may instill feelings of: Belonging to a particular group or groups. Identification with that group; shared commitment and values.

Commonalities such as racial, national, tribal, religious, linguistic, or cultural origin may be used to describe someone’s ethnicity. While someone may say their race is “Black,” their ethnicity might be Italian, or someone may say their race is “White,” and their ethnicity is Irish.

Race is not biological. It is a social construct. There is no gene or cluster of genes common to all blacks or all whites. Were race “real” in the genetic sense, racial classifications for individuals would remain constant across boundaries.

You can only have one race, while you can claim multiple ethnic affiliations. You can identify ethnically as Irish and Polish, but you have to be essentially either black or white. The fundamental difference is that race is socially imposed and hierarchical. There is an inequality built into the system.

Black or African American: A person having origins in any of the Black racial groups of Africa. Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander: A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands.

Mixed or Multiple ethnic groups

• White and Black Caribbean.
• White and Black African.
• White and Asian.
• Any other Mixed or Multiple ethnic background.

The United States

MULTIRACIAL PROFILE Nationwide, approximately 2.4 percent of the population, over 6.8 million Americans, marked an identification with two or more races. As is the case with many racial and ethnic groups, the multiracial population is not evenly distributed across the country.

The most recent Census in 2011 highlights that in England and Wales, 80 per cent of the population were white British. Asian (Pakistani, Indian, Bangladeshi, other) ‘groups’ made up 6.8 per cent of the population; black groups 3.4 per cent; Chinese groups 0.7 cent,Arab groups 0.4 per cent and other groups 0.6 per cent.

The CIA World Factbook defines the ethnic groups of France as being “Celtic and Latin with Teutonic, Slavic, North African, Sub-Saharan African, Indochinese, and Basque minorities. Overseas departments: black, white, mulatto, East Indian, Chinese, Amerindian”.

The major religions practised in France include Christianity (about 47% overall, with denominations including Catholicism, various branches of Protestantism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Armenian Orthodoxy), Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Sikhism amongst others, making it a multiconfessional country.
