Unpacking Race: Science vs. Cultural Constructs

Dive into the complexities of race as we explore its cultural significance and scientific validity. This episode reveals how race is not a biologically sound concept, but rather a social construct based on superficial traits like skin color and facial features.

Join us as we challenge perceptions and promote understanding, reminding us that our shared humanity transcends these artificial divisions.
