Race
a class of individuals sprung from a common stock; the descendants collectively of a common ancestor; a family, tribe, nation, or people belonging, or supposed to belong, to the same stock.
The human family, according to Blumenbach, comprises five distinct races of men, viz.: The Caucasian, or white race, inhabiting southwestern Asia, the greater part of Europe, large portions of North and South America, and Australia; the Ethiopian, black or negro race, occupying tropical and South Africa, some of the Pacific islands, part of Australia, and portions of North America, into which they were originally brought as slaves; the Mongolian, or yellow race, occupying northern and eastern Asia; the Malayan, or brown race, inhabiting the islands of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, the Australian continent, and the Malay Peninsula; and the American Indian, or red race, of North and South America.
