Race to me?. Any act done in which the winner is the one who finishes first.

Seriously, the whole race discussion has been done to death. No new and valid points can be added. It's all treading the same old waters. Give it up.

People just say purple because its a crazy color or whatever, and they say it to mean that they honestly dont care what color you are

Either that or theyre referring to nerds who are badly bruised from numerous beatings.

I always hear people refer to "purple" as I race. I admit I don't get out all that much, and I've never met a purple person. It might be some sort of expression, but I've always felt a little foolish to ask. Of course, there's also the fact that I am a fool.

Race. Your "blood." It can also refer to what country you're from, I suppose.

race is non-existant in a biological sense. culture and ethnicity are more useful ways of seeing differences. rascists are usually scared of the unknown and different culture another person may represent, but a black and white british person may have more in common than a white brit and a white russian.

While race does have cultural aspects of it, in todays world race referrs mostly to your genetic heritage and the general groups we can make out. Since, at least in America, genetic background is not supposed to be tied to your culture, we've moved away from that. Race therefore, in the modern definition we live with, is governed by your genetics.
