The other road means affirming our shared humanity by working to end the social inequities preserved by the political system of race. Which path we choose to follow is not only a question of scientific evidence. It is a question of moral commitment. There is no neutral scientific position on this question. We have long had scientific confirmation that race is a political and not a biological category. The re-creation of biological race in genomic science today, like its invention by scientists in past centuries, results from an ideological commitment to a false view of humanity.
