The black Men no longer belongs to an inferior “race”, but to a “human species” to which time has taken charge of establishing a new consideration. Image: ninastock/pixabay.com

Explanation/Think several times before talking about others using offensive terms is a mark of affection and consideration that takes into account the dignity of each human being. If in fact, driven by an imperialist and expansionist desire to the extreme, the great powers set out to conquer the world by using all the sulphurous means possible and in particular the commercialization of black people, efforts undertaken with the aim of changing mentalities, have made it possible to better appreciate others as they are, and no longer establish a scale of consideration between Mens who are all equal from the point of view of the species.

Used for the first time in the 18th century, the notion of race made it possible to distinguish human groups. This term, both valorising and devaluing, favoured the trade of black slaves, and the colonization of geographical spaces in a primitive state and of lesser consideration due to the skin colour of those who lived there, by a set of advanced civilizations which had a high self-esteem, to the point of assimilating black Men to a “race” of barbaric animals that had to be civilized at all costs but whose dignity has been restored by time, through an incontestable truth based on scientific studies which already certified from the 20th century that it is no longer relevant to use the term “race” to characterize the different geographical subgroups of the human species because genetic diversity is much greater between individuals of the same population than between different groups. In other words, the differences would be even more marked between individuals in the same population. Limiting ourselves to the level of skin colour to establish hierarchies of consideration it's not being aware of this reality.

Even if the domination of the “white race” over the black between the 18th and 20th century contributed to bringing black Mens to have a less consideration of themselves, and to mystify a colour of skin which would be that of God if we take into account the notable influence of evangelization campaigns under the cover of an hegemony which contributed to devaluing the cultural potential of African Territories whose people were reduced to the lamentable degree of consideration of an inferior “race”, today, thanks in particular to the development of research in genetics in particular, the black Men no longer belongs to an inferior “race”, but to a “human species” to which time has taken charge of establishing a new consideration which breaks the limits of the perverse divisions which now belong to another bygone era, despite the fact that some people unfortunately continue to develop xenophobic, segregationist, and even tribal tendencies which manifested themselves in particular in the 20th century by the Shoah, Apartheid and genocides whose Current partisan minorities that stand the test of time, face numerous forms of protests which campaign for equal rights for all Mens above all, and not only for “race” which is only an intrinsic element which denotes the diversity of the same human nature whose circumstances of existence have contributed to creating palpable differences of the same nature that several researchers had already discovered, and that the research which followed one another made it possible to confirm and contribute to restoring the dignity of black people in particular.

According to the naturalist and mathematician George Louis Leclerc (1707 1788), everything contributes to proving that the human race is not composed of species that are essentially different from each other; that on the contrary, there was essentially only one species of men, which, having multiplied and spread over the entire surface of the earth, underwent different changes. Some are climatic, others concern differences in food or ways of living; there are also epidemic diseases; and the infinitely varied mixture of more or less similar individuals; that these alterations were not so marked, and only produced individual varieties; that they then became varieties of the species, because they became more general, more sensitive and more constant through the constant action of these same causes.

Following Arthur de Cobineau's essay published in 1853 which aimed to establish a hierarchy between the different human races at the request of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (Unesco) who wanted to avoid the improper use of the term “race”, the anthropologist and ethnologist Claude Lévi-Strauss (1959-2009) in his work on race and history published in 1952, believed that there is no “human race” in the biological sense. By establishing a difference between the biological notion of race and the sociological notion of culture, he demonstrated, following George Louis Leclerc that the originality of peoples takes into account geographical, historical and sociological circumstances. But using the term race to designate geographic or cultural ethnic groups at that time still had a racist connotation that additional works has contributed to change.

By sequencing for the first time in the year 2000 a human genome or by adopting a method which allows reading of the genetic information preserved by its cell at the level of DNA or the support of genetic information which carries thousands of genes, Graig Venter, an American researcher specializing in molecular biology, put an end to the concept of “race” which lost all scientific basis because a genetic research established two undeniable facts: First, all humans are very close. Each of us would have the same collection of genes. However, some also have slightly diverse versions of certain genes. Secondly, all current human beings are literally Africans. Our species homo sapiens sapiens would have appeared in Africa we do not know precisely when? and where? But human anatomical traits of the current human being, would have emerged 300,000 years ago. We would have remained in Africa for 200,000 years, but beings were already moving to various places on the continent. These groups founded diverse and new populations which gradually colonized the entire planet. There are therefore no longer “races”, but a human species which has a unique origin which, depending on several circumstances of life, has undergone transformations which have had consequences on the quality of the skin of Men which have been misinterpreted in the point of having favored the development of segregationist, xenophobic and racial considerations having contributed to committing enormities throughout human history, notably the slave trade, colonization, shoah, and Apartheid, which aimed to exclude, exterminate and exploit individuals deemed to be of inferior category, but whose dignity has been restored by Scientifics researches.
