A family called the Actons, refused to sign a consent form that would subject their son to such tests and the case went all the way to the Supreme Court which ruled that their son's Fourth Amendment rights were not violated because drug tests were reasonable searches.

Olin [163]

The San Francisco Borad of Supervisors blame the Chinese for these living conditions. They argue that it is as if the Chinese community existed in open defiance of the law and even say that they are stronger against the law than other races.

I do not agree with their assessment because it is profoundly racist, attributing this conditions to some racial essentialism and campaigning for the banning of Chinese citizens in American soil. Instead of this, the San Francisco Board of supervisors should try to address the political and social factors that have led the Chinese communities to live in those conditions: being denied certain jobs other than cooks or housemaids, affordable housing outside of ghettoes and the financial stability to look after their families, communities and the improvement of their spaces in the city.

What human race carries the eve gene
Nady [450]

In human genetics, the Mitochondrial Eve (also mt-Eve, mt-MRCA) is the matrilineal most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of all living humans, i.e., the most recent woman from whom all living humans descend in an unbroken line purely through their mothers and through the mothers of those mothers, back until all lines converge on one woman.

In terms of mitochondrial haplogroups, the mt-MRCA is situated at the divergence of macro-haplogroup L into L0 and L1–6. As of 2013, estimates on the age of this split ranged at around 150,000 years ago,[note 3] consistent with a date later than the speciation of Homo sapiens but earlier than the recent out-of-Africa dispersal.[4][1][5]

The male analog to the "Mitochondrial Eve" is the "Y-chromosomal Adam" (or Y-MRCA), the individual from whom all living humans are patrilineally descended. As the identity of both matrilineal and patrilineal MRCAs is dependent on genealogical history (pedigree collapse), they need not have lived at the same time. As of 2013, estimates for the age Y-MRCA are subject to substantial uncertainty, with a wide range of times from 180,000 to 580,000 years ago[6][7][8] (with an estimated age of between 120,000 and 156,000 years ago, roughly consistent with the estimate for mt-MRCA.).[2][9]

The name "Mitochondrial Eve" alludes to biblical Eve, which has led to repeated misrepresentations or misconceptions in journalistic accounts on the topic. Popular science presentations of the topic usually point out such possible misconceptions by emphasizing the fact that the position of mt-MRCA is neither fixed in time (as the position of mt-MRCA moves forward in time as mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages become extinct), nor does it refer to a "first woman", nor the only living female of her time, nor the first member of a "new species".[note 4]
