The category of race in humans is not a biological but a cultural one.
We talk about a term being invented to stratify human beings for exploitational purposes.
In this way race as a word, up until today, is fog of war for a culture of dominance hiding behind science.

And here I thought the dictionary definition was belief in the moral superiority/inferiority of certain "races", including beliefs that certain races are less worthy of rights and freedoms than others.
