Reply to comment by daniuwur in Race and ethnicity appear to play an important a role in the link between psychedelic use and mental health outcomes by chrisdh79
Race as we now use it is completely made up and invented during colonization to separate those in power (white) from those not in power (black). While there is some genetic base to it it is mostly a class distinction. There is no such thing as a Hispanic race although it is used as such. But you can be 100% of European descent or 100%African descent etc and still technically be “Hispanic” same with Asian/Pacific Islander who all vary greatly in phenotype. Ethnicity is more real based in lineage, genes, and culture. An African American is a different ethnicity than a Haitian although they are both “black”. However Celia Cruz and Shakira are both “Hispanic”.
