Caucasians like myself can feel uncomfortable when pointing out genetic differences between human groups. Of course, this wouldn’t apply to all differences.

Although, I must point out that implicit racial biases is rather common (virtually everyone has them), and that the belief that racial categories are biologically objective does indeed stem from such biases. But that’s beside the point that I was making. The point being that the concept of human races is the child of racism, not the father…regardless whether the individuals who propegate the concept are themselves explicit racists or not.
