In the US we divide out the races for crime, poverty, etc. This is meaningless as we are unable to change the race of someone.

As an example. If you found that porn with red lingerie outsells porn with green lingerie, you would use more red. You can change that.

If we found out that people over 6 foot 2 were more likely to be criminals, again it is not really useful. So we don't do that. So why do we divide by race all the time?
