Genetic variation within the human species is celebrated with this discussion. Humans aren’t alone in our constant search for identity—we’ll reveal other animal species that segregate themselves into specific cultural communities. Try some activities and discuss ideas that may challenge how you think about the very human-specific term, “Race." Dr. Nicole M.
