ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Hamites

You know how there are lots of different groups of people in the world? Well, a long time ago, some people thought that there was a group of people called "Hamites" who were different from other groups. But it turns out that this was not a very accurate way to think about people! Nowadays, we understand that people come in all different shapes, sizes, colors, and backgrounds, and that it's not helpful to try and put them into neat little categories like "Hamites." Plus, it's important to treat everyone with kindness and respect, no matter where they come from or what they look like.
