OK. If you don't like the word 'race' then let's use the word 'breeds.'
This is a dog..
This is another dog...
Can you tell they are two different breeds of the same species? Well, I can do the same with people.

It isn't the same thing. There are not "breeds" of human beings.
Look, there is no question here on this issue. Look it up. Any distinction in races for medical/health issues are attributable to localization of people together in reproduction, not because of any real genetic differences.
Plus, when we call Barack Obama "black" and not "white" or when we call people from Russia and Canada "white" as though they have the same ethnic background, it proves that "Race" is simply a social construct and not a genetic or scientific distinction. There is nothing real to it.
