            1. Perceiving racism causes increased stress which can cause high blood pressure, depression, etc.

            2. Perceiving racism while also haveing a strong base for identification (coping) reduces the physiological effects of the perception in 1.

            In neither case is the truth of the perceptions brought into play.
            From what I saw, a lot of the citations consisted of documented occurrences. Also, there is no empirical method used that can assess the accuracy of a hearsay incident anyhow (especially without studying the attitudes of the perpetrators in question). Therefore it is a dual process which is contrary to your claims since your sources make no positive assertions of this "perceived" racism as being the product of a delusion or paranoia. It may indeed reflect some general reality.

                  You also contradict yourself by pointing out that agriculture played a critical role in the development and allowance of populated societies or settlements, yet you somehow attribute earlier isolation to some kind of inherent "distrust" of other groups, when in fact it was merely the best subsistence strategy that was permitted by hunter-gatherers. This tells us nothing of a pre-historic scenario of individuals being rejected from these societies due to their level of skin pigment or nose width. Warfare is usually based on a competition of resources, not phenotypical discrimination.
                  There was no contradiction. Agriculture is essential to large and comlex societies, large scale agriculture cannot be carried out with a high level of social organisation. Ergo the development of large scale agriculture went hand in hand with increasing social complexity.

                  On the other hand bands of hunter-gatherers are limited from developing social complexity because all members of a social group have to devote their time to food gathering. In addition bands of hunter gatherers are limited in size because of the scarcity of resources (food, shelter etc) in groups which do not grow their food. The scarcity of the resources also brings them into direct conflict with other bands of hunter-gatherers, hence all pre-agrarian human and prehuman societies have good reason to distrust ********s. This is not necessarily to do with race and ethnicity. However race and ethnicity have become marks of unfamiliarity and therefore distrust.

                  I conclude that the best way to counter racism is not to try to fight thousands of years of evolutionary instinct, but to work with it, break down the barriers and not separate people by race.

                  There is absolutely no evidence of any "warfare" or crushed Neanderthal skulls inside of a human cave. Again, refer to Darwin's "survival of the fittest"..
                  You may be right about the evidence (or lack thereof) of the fate of the Neanderthals. I did a quick search, I'm sure there was some evidence came out within the last year that there was some sort of war. But given the aggression in every human population ever since it would seem more far fetched that there was not some murder of Neanderthals carried out by early humans in areas where there was competition for resources.

                    Negro, please! I'd rather be called negro than ***** any day. Its the same as being called Latin, Asian or Caucasian. At least its a legit word.

                      Well negro is latin for black since English is spoken in America black would seem more fitting.
