Race-The Power Of An Illusion: Film Analysis
The documentary film “Race-The Power of An Illusion: The Difference Between Us” is about analyzing the modern science becaues it leads every individual to rethink about their common assumption that humans can be divided into three or four categories based on how they look visually. However, race is not just based on external (Visual) differences because it also focus on more complex internal differences. For example, the female runner from Gorgeous Harper's team infer that “A white girl can't beat me in the 200” and another female runner deduce that “I've heard … Blacks have an extra muscle in their leg.” Not only that, the concept of race and social access can influence who can participate in sports because even though “Racial differences are not necessarily discussed openly, they are often part

Moreover, a clinal distribution is a gradual change in phenotype of allele differecnes over gerography and one hypothesis that exaplain this change from Northern to tropical latitudes is sunlight because it's the best source for individuals to acquire vitamin D. Considering the fact that, Northern latitudes has limited sunlight in the winter cause many individuals to become unhealthy. Therefore, “The best way to understand the genetic differences that we find in human populations is … by distance and it's a continuous change from one group to another. And we can look at this by using the example of skin color. If we were to look only at people in the tropics and the people in Norway, we'd come to the conclusion that as we walk from the tropics to Norway, we would definitely see a continuous change in skin tone.” The concept of concordance is important for those who believe that race is biologically real because it means that simple external differences in biology are associated with the complecated internal
