itโ€™s so weird the US has โ€œraceโ€ fields in so many datasets and forms. never seen this in othe countries. โ€ฆ and then they put colors into them. i donโ€™t even
Itโ€™s for statistics.

Yes, obviously. But the concept of โ€˜raceโ€™ is made up and basing it on science color has even less foundation in biology.

And again, no other country does it. Country of birth, citizenship or cultural backgrounds might be collected, but not โ€˜raceโ€™.
