Saini 6

Are different ethnic groups better at different things?
no because the variation within the group is much greater

Saini is interested not in violent extremist groups but in political and intellectual racism

She examines questioning the Human Genome Project study of isolated groups

• Indigenous communities did not want to be studied that way, as if they belonged in a museum
• why study difference if you already know it is minor?
• why divide people into groups instead of studying variation within populations?
• isn't this race science by another name

So why distrust even liberal scientists who are studying statistical differences between populations?

• it is to easy to play into people disliking each other because they are genetically different
• does Saini think it is ok to just replace race with ethnicity?
  
• why see these tiny differences as important?

DNA testing

• does this make us identify more in separate groups
• or convince us that we are all mixed

here is mine--very boring:
