There is only one race, the human race. Refusal to accept that ought to be a capital offence.

So let's draw the line at calling true comedy, not the mean-spirited stuff, racist.

Racism. Discrimination against a people of different colour. Funny how hypocritical racism can be.

To say that we are all members of the same race, which is entirely accurate, is not to say that we do not have our differences.
However, no matter how different we may appear, we will always be more similar, than we are different, more akin to one another, than alien to one another.

You can consider what ever you want but unless you have peer reviewed science to negate my point you point remains just that. A consideration
:-)
DNA markers don't, by themselves, identify the gene responsible for the disease or trait; but they can tell researchers roughly where the gene is on the chromosome.

The idea of race has been falsified by science. There is no such thing. There are no genetic markers for any single race of people.
By definition does that not then make the words race..racist. as there is no such thing. It is nothing but a false categorisation. A word that puts a philosophical divide to between brethen and sistren.
The beleif that we are different is based on false pretense.
So to answer your question any culture that has a word for race is racist.
