 ::Race is not viewed as a social construction today.  The only people that think that are sociologists and that's only because they're too damn stupid to understand genetics, otherwise they'd be geneticists instead of sociologists.  The only biologists that think race is a social construction are the dumb ones.  The smart ones all know race is real but they're too cowardly to admit it to the public so instead of saying race they say ""population"" & the dumb stupid sociology majors all fall for this claptrap and repeat it on wikipedia.
