"Race - The Power of an Illusion." //PBS//. 2003. Web. 11 Nov 2009. [].

This website is a general overview of the history of race regarding its origin, and also how race relates to slavery. This website also discusses how different race categories may have changed and expanded over time to include more people. I know this is a reliable source because PBS is a very well known, legitimate company that has been around for over 30 years. However, the website is presented with a bias. The website is written with the perspective that race is a social construct completely, and has no relation to science.

"Race - The Power of an Illusion." //PBS//. 2003. Web. 11 Nov 2009. [].

This website discusses how people are sorted into different races, and what this sorting is based on. The website also talks about ways to group people in general, like by fingerprint type, blood type, and ancestry. I know this is a reliable source because PBS is a very well known, legitimate company. However, as well as the first source, this website is presented with the bias the race is only social. Both of the PBS pages could be viewed as controversial because many people believe race is 100% scientific.
