On the term "race"

 Appending "race" is meaningless or redundant or adds no further precision to whatever the term refers, other than perhaps as a substitute for "species".

For example, "race" has been used to designate national groups, or people of varying hues, or species, as in the "Japanese race" or the "brown race" or the "race of dogs".  But if "race" means anything in these circumstances, then is should mean the same thing in all of these circumstances.  But if that is the case, then the term "race" in these circumstances simply means "group".

Using the term "race" when it comes to referring to homo sapiens, may be a way of avoiding granting humanity to a particular group of homo sapiens.  Thus, to refer to the "yellow race" is a way of separating people of a particular hue from the rest of humanity, thereby tacitly designating them as non-human, and thereby allowing the rest of humanity to treat them as we humans treat other non-humans: experimenting on them, eating them, killing them without remorse.

Saying the "human race" is like saying "tuna fish".
