[QUOTE]Originally posted by BrandonP: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Elmaestro: [qb]I want to try to elucidate the fact that this actually has little to do with Kinship or assessed kinship by whoever. I want to pay attention to how quickly a conversation devolves into "were they black or not." The topics are almost purposefully ambiguous in that regard because people are more comfortable arguing subjectivity. I've come to realize that it might've never really ever been about kinship from either side. It's about perception and resemblance. The uncomfortable fact about all of these civilizations that a minority of Afrocentrics or "Native American blacks" claim (wrongfully so) is that they claim these civilizations because of lookership. The argument was always truly about the lookership to begin with. Not kinship but appearance.[/qb][/QUOTE]Race was always about phenotype more than it was genetics or kinship. That's why you see all these armchair anthropologists use genetic research to prove such and such population belonged to a certain race. They think that, if a given population plots next to certain others on a PCA chart, then that given population must necessarily belong to the same race and therefore look the same as whomever they plot next to. They only care about genetics insofar as they think they can infer race or phenotype from it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
