Do you think Race is a Social concept, or a biological concept?  |

 It's originally supposed to be something biological but since there were formed "more advanced" races, the others got left behind. I think some were just luckier to settle down on better soil and environment etc. So I believe race is a social concept considering how the things are going on the 21st century.
Of course there is no absolute truth since USA is powerful and there are all kinds of races there, including blacks and people from poor Asian countries, so in that case it is just biological. But considering the whole world, it is a social thing. 
Yeah, the environment definitely has a factor. it's actually kind of speciation if you look at it. Don't get me wrong, i think we're all human, we all have the same genetic baseline, but there are chromosomes that contain the race information. To be honest though, it's only subtle differences aside from color, which is only a prominence or absence of pigment in the cells. A slight different shape of skull you'll notice, as well as some other features.

What, in your opinion, is better soil/environment?

There is a White look, but no Asian look (as I JUST SAID).
How can you tell what is a "white look" if there is "no asian look"?
