Yes, every thing we think to be a thing is a concept, especially along the lines of Religions and Race. The thing is, race itself is a concept that really should be ignored but we choose not to to give ourselves more attention. The “Racial equality” groups aren’t helping themselves as much as they think. They’re just bringing us back a few years to claim more than what they have. While larger powers such as government should do a bit more to quite literally make things equal, it will never happen because of the mindset set onto them since 1000+ years ago. Racism is a concept that really should not have been out there in the first place, but is just because “we judge based by looks”.

asked:
Gravity is a concept. Atomic theory is a concept. Existence is a concept. Quite literally, everything humankind has named and "discovered" is a concept fabricated through language. Does that mean it does not exist and has no relevance to life? Race is a concept as well, and it has a large impact on human society, as you should know. Does it exist? Yes, simply because we created it. The problem with race is that is a NEGATIVE creation and we're trying to see past it.
