| Description
| - The author presents various arguments from the history of mankind, but also from our contemporary era - pointing at the relation of the majority of society toward minorities in an effort to prove that a racial pedigree is not the real source of racism. She points to the fact that for centuries the source of racism was not %22the other race%22 but otherness, being different, human variations whether physical or socio-cultural (e.g., different religion), but also all kinds of political interests and interests of power. The term race as we understand it today appears as late as during the era of biological thinking of the 18th century. Various theories about race, and later, also racist theories, came to existence when the original and purely biological concept of race was substituted with sociological and psychological creations of human culture, and linguistic affinity began to be associated with distinct anthropological features. The real cause of racism is, however, diversity and the xenophobia that results from it - the fear of the alien, unknown, or somehow different. Xenophobia should not be denounced outright because it is, to a certain degree, natural even desirable for each individual. It is a form of self-defence. We are able to begin observing the signs of racism after the natural threshold of xenophobia is exceeded, after our fear of something alien or different leads to contempt, or even hate, of a foreigner. From there, it is only a small step to physical persecution. In the conclusion of the article, the author emphasizes the need to see human races in a purely %22biological sense%22, free of the %22superstructure%22 attached to them by the racists. Only then it would be possible to take a serious stance on the issue of the human race or races and reject their classifications, and do so without a stubborn effort to stereotype the humankind and deny its diversity.
