Write a response  to the assigned readings and media on biological conceptions of human difference (link above). Be sure that you use specific evidence from at least two of the assigned readings/media.

You might consider:

• Biological vs. cultural/social conceptions of difference: if biologically we are 99.999999999% the same, how do we understand cultural and social conceptions of human difference? How to you weigh the biological/genetic limits of human difference with the ways in which human societies use them for positive (e.g. empowerment of particular communities, pride in being Black, Black Love, etc, for example) and negative (racial/ethnic supremacy and hate) ends?
• How do we make sense of science's role in supporting racial and ethnic supremacy? We often call this "pseudo-science" or junk science (which it is!), but it was treated as legitimate scholarly discourse in its time. How can we be skeptical and understand, for example, scientific knowledge as something always developing and growing and becoming whole while also recognizing how little we really know and the role of science in racism, eugenics, etc?
