"Race" isn't *just* skin color or phenotype. In fact, it isn't skin color or phenotype, DNA, culture, or whatever you want to call "race." What do I mean when I make that assertion?

“Race, which began as an anthropological fiction, has become a sociological fact. Socio-economic biracialism advanced as a ‘ solution’ for the color question has brought about a psychological biracialism which may bring about an entirely different ‘solution.’ An antagonism has developed on both sides which is increasingly similar to that between two Balkan nations. From being regarded as something present in and yet apart from American life and institutions, the Negro is coming to regard himself in the same way," George Schuyler. 2/
