Understanding Human Races: A Historical Perspective on Classification

This piece explores the historical classifications of human races, beginning with Karol Linnaeus in 1756, who grouped races by continent and skin color. It highlights subsequent classifications by J.F. Blumenbach and G. Cuvier, representing how perceptions of race evolved over time. The text examines characteristics of various racial groups, including Eastern Asians, Native Americans, Afro-Americans, and others. Ultimately, it emphasizes the oneness of humanity, urging respect for human rights as individuals share universal values such as love, family, and peace, regardless of racial differences.
