I have to define my own race because the
government asks me to.


Whenever I come across a form that asks me for my race I check "other" and write in "human."

Exactly! The government should be banned from asking any questions about race. It's none of their business, and it only creates divisions within America. Once you become a citizen only one term to describe you should matter, American.

I heard the new census has racial identity questions in it. I plan on checking "Unknown" if the block exists.
