Why do you think race is so important to people.

Answer:

Because Race Matters.

Race matters because it is an imperfect proxy for racism and racial discrimination.

Clearly, race doesn’t matter as a genetic concept. The idea that race is important because of a notion of genetic homogeneity has been thoroughly debunked.[29] Furthermore, race, as a scientific concept, never rested on firm scientific foundation.[29] Biologically, there are no pure, distinct races. Which is not to say that there may not be bio-chemical differences among individuals. Some of those differences might be closely associated with groups that we categorize by race. For instance, in a study of 1,256 female and 1,603 male patients, women had more rapid decreases in CD4+ T cell counts than men and non-whites had slower decreases than whites.[1, 13]

If race does not distinguish humans from one another genetically, then why does it matter? Several studies document that "race" has been shaped by cultural, political, ideological and legal functions in society. That is, "race" is a social construct; something that has meaning only because the society gives it meaning.[14] Such construct is no less powerful than a biological construct. Once society conveys meaning that meaning has impact and consequences.
