SciForums,. "The Race Thread." //SciForums.com//. 2009. vBulletin, Web. 28 Oct 2009. .

"Different human races." Yahoo Answers. Novermber, 2008. Yahoo Inc., Web. 11 Nov 2009. .  I used sciforums and yahoo answers as two of my sources to show how the conclusion I made on how many races there are is very much opinion based. I have not found any "reliable" as you would say sources yet. I am going to find some reliable sources eventually but right now I am focusing on the opinionated part of the question. Both of these articles are written by many different people being it is an opinion based sight, sort of like a discussion board.

 "Johann Friedrich Blumenbach." Wikipedia. 2nd, Novermber 2009. Princeton University Press, Web. 11 Nov 2009. .

I used this site on Johann Blumenbach because it was sent to me as a good resource, and as I did further research, I found that he was the first person to classify different races (which is my topic) so I thought he was an important man to include on my page. This page is edited by many different people, so it is not necessarily a trustworthy source; however it still made a difference in my page and I thought it was an interesting piece. The page is basically talking about the history of Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, who he was, and what he did; which was that he was one of the first people (known) to study mankind and classify them into "groups" of races.

 "America has many races." CNN iReport. 28, April 2008. Turner Broadcasting System Inc, Web. 11 Nov 2009. .

I used this CNN report website because as I was researching on Google it came up and I knew that CNN was a news report service so I decided to do further investigating on this. It wasn't the most helpful of resource; however, I found it interesting and it related to my topic. This article was written by someone under a username. This site is basically just discussing how America has many different races, and although my topic is on the amount of races in the world, it still affects this since America is obviously part of the world.

"define race." //Google//. Google Inc, Web. 11 Nov 2009.  I used this Google definitions site to show that there are many different definitions of race; this went along with the point I was trying to prove in that particular section of my research. These different definitions are written by different websites and even schools, and I thought it was a reliable source to use because the definitions weren't necessarily accurate they were just opinion based which was what I was looking for. = = = "Race Data." //U.S. Census Bureau//. 10, April 2008. U.S. Census Bureau, Population Division, Web. 11 Nov 2009. . = I used this U.S. Census Bureau website because I found it while researching and it seemed like a reliable source because it contained information that I had seen previously. This article was written by the U.S. Census Bureau. The article is talking about Racial and Ethnic classifications that were decided and used back a few years ago. I tried searching for another article written by this source that was more updated and relating to today; however, I had no luck in finding this.

VolokH, Eugene. "The appeal of diversity." //Diversity, Race as Proxay, and Religion as Proxy//. Web. 11 Nov 2009. . I used this source because I wanted to further my research on how diversity connected to my topic. This article was written by Eugene Volokh, and I think this is a somewhat reliable source because at the time of reading it i remember knowing that I had read some of the information on a previous website. This doesn't necessarily mean it is a reliable source; but it just shows that it isn't completely made up stuff. This page is basically just talking about the overall topics of diversity, race, and religion.

Cooper Abrams, The Origin Of Race. //Bible Truth//. February, 2008. Zondervan Publishing House, Web. 3 Dec 2009. .

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 19px;">I used this source because after we did some further reading on race this second trimester, it interested me more in the origin of race so i decided to do a little further research on it to help with my opinion base on my topic. This article was written by Cooper Abrams, and is a good source because along with most of my other research, It's ok if isn't necessarily factual information since I am looking for opinion based information mostly.
