“Your job — as students who are receiving an education — is to be aware of your privilege. And use this particular privilege called “education” to do your best to achieve great things, all the while advocating for those in the rows behind you.”

Although the proportions of genes differ, meaning that genetic differences exist, these variations map very poorly onto what we think of as racist. This seems to introduce a logical contradiction: if race is not real, how can we speak of race-based therapeutics? The answer is that race is real, but it is not biological: It is social. What correlates very closely to most "racial" differences in life expectancy, mortality, disease susceptibility, and survival is the race to which one is perceived as belonging.

...For there are exceptions, and although they are rare, it is important from a medical point of view to recognize them when we see them if we want to devise the best possible medical treatments. However, many genetic diseases are no respecters of race: as we have seen, sickle cell disease affects Mediterranean people, Africans, and South Asians, among others; the autoimmune disorder sarcoidosis afflicts principally African Americans and Scandinavians.

Some genetic risk factors for diseases such as heart disease, prostate cancer, and low birth weight are present in African Americans but not in Nigerians and West indians, suggesting that factors other than African heredity are at work.""
