Figure 5.4 Mug shots of people from different races. Phenotype variations—visible bodily differences such as facial features, skin color, and hair texture—are considered indicative of “race” by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). “Race” is one of several visible characteristics—which also include tattoos, scars, height, and weight—and is often used by law enforcement to identify suspects. These are photos from the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted list. How is this idea of race as defined by visible differences different from race as it is commonly understood in the United States? Do you see any similarities between this image and Figure 5.3? (Courtesy of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.)
