apropos:

Over the last century, American biological anthropology has come to largely reject the race concept. This has been a gradual evolutionary process, where the frequency of challenges to the race concept increased due to both social and scientific factors, including reactions to scientific racism, changes in evolutionary theory and population genetics, and empirical studies of population structure. However, the essentialism at the core of the race concept may render this a tenuous achievement; racial thinking remains common in both science and society. 

If the basis for the non-existence of “race” is not systematically taught, the race concept could easily re-emerge as a dominant trope in the science of human variation. Race continues to be conflated with geographic variation in many allied fields, including medicine.
