520 | _a"Looking for biological determinants of race is nothing new. It has a potent history, with poisonous associations dating back to the early days of eugenics. But contemporary science has given these efforts a new respectability. In the wake of the completion of the Human Genome Project, geneticists are trying to arrange pieces of the genome like a Rubik's Cube, searching for patterns of variation that align into some useful matrix. Their goal is to generate information that will help prevent and treat common diseases. But in the process, they're generating information that might also lead to declarations about the biological meaning of race." (NEW YORK TIMES MAGAZINE) This article examines the growing interest in racial genetics and how the findings could impact how we define and view race. | ||
