Denisovans
When the ancient genome was compared to a spectrum of modern human populations, a striking relationship emerged. Unlike most groups, Melanesians — inhabitants of Papua New Guinea and islands northeast of Australia — seem to have inherited as much as one-twentieth of their DNA from Denisovan roots. This suggests that after the ancestors of today's Papuans split from other human populations and migrated east, they interbred with Denisovans, but precisely when, where and to what extent is unclear.

Homo floresiensis
("Flores Man", nicknamed "hobbit") is a possible species, now extinct, in the genus Homo. The remains were discovered in 2004 on the island of Flores in Indonesia. Partial skeletons of nine individuals have been recovered, including one complete cranium (skull). These remains have been the subject of intense research to determine whether they represent a species distinct from modern humans, and the progress of this scientific controversy has been closely followed by the news media at large. This hominin is remarkable for its small body and brain and for its survival until relatively recent times (possibly as recently as 12,000 years ago). Recovered alongside the skeletal remains were stone tools from archaeological horizons ranging from 94,000 to 13,000 years ago.

Australopithecus sediba,
New species in human lineage's evolution discovered Researchers have discovered in South Africa two partial skeletons of a new species of evolving primate that incorporates ape and human features in a previously unseen combination. The skeletons, of a boy and a young woman, have orangutan-length arms but human-shaped hands. Changes to the legs and pelvis suggest that the creatures spent much of their time upright, although their feet are primitive. They have small, humanlike teeth but an ape-size braincase. Although anthropologists long ago rejected the notion of a missing link in human prehistory waiting to be found, few doubt that there are "missing strands" in the tangled braid of co-evolving pre-human lineages. The new species, named Australopithecus sediba, appears to be one of them.

Just look at multicultural countries ... are they really blended?
Of course not or you would not have China towns etc they are just a ticking time bomb and sooner or later it will come down to a show down ... the elite know this .... this is their ultimate plot if you ask me.

Because we are the same. We are all one HUMAN race.
Race is a made up social construct that allowed the Europeans to enslave those they colonized. Why should we celebrate differences in a fake system?
Human genome contains 223 genes that do not have the required predecessors on the genomic evolutionary tree. Now, at first glance it would seem that 223 genes is no big deal. In fact, while every single gene makes a great difference to every individual, 223 genes make an immense difference to a species such as ours. The difference between one individual person and another amounts to about one-letter in a thousand in the DNA-alphabet.
The difference between Humankind and Chimpanzee is less than one percent as genes go; and one percent of 30,000 genes is 300. So, 223 genes is more than two thirds of the difference between me, you and a chimpanzee!
An analysis of the functions of these genes through the proteins that they spell out, conducted by the Public Consortium team and published in the journal Nature, shows that they include not only proteins involved in important physiological but also psychiatric functions. Moreover, they are responsible for important neurological enzymes that stem only from the mitochondrial portion of the DNA the so-called "Eve DNA" that humankind inherited only through the mother-line, all the way back to a single Eve.

But what I want to know is why do we not admit we are NOT all the same?

Lol, nice trolling.
We're not all the same. It's our individuality which makes us all unique and special. Once you force us to become one and the same, we lose ourselves. Aren't we supposedly supposed to "celebrate diversity"? I could swear my school had huge banners promoting this idea...
The European concept of "race", along with many of the ideas now associated with the term, arose in the conjunction of the scientific revolution, which introduced and privileged the study of natural kinds, and the age of European imperialism and colonization which established political relations between Europeans and peoples with distinct cultural and political traditions.[35][38]
The rise of the Atlantic slave trade, which gradually displaced an earlier trade in slaves from throughout the world, created a further incentive to categorize human groups in order to justify the subordination of African slaves.[
