Same for red meaning indigenous peoples of certain regions (North America mostly).

Other cultures recognize different numbers of races to the extremes of Brazil, who recognize upwards of 20 different races, based solely on skin tone. In Brazil, you aren't 1 race, but a range of races depending on your current level of suntan.


@spoon: Show me any genealogical or scientific evidence that race is a verifiable human trait, and tell me the defining characteristics of each race.
You can research that yourself.
