Saying that one group is xyz because of melanin levels is racism. It says that because of one characteristic, they should be seen or treated in a certain way.Looking at GROUPS helps us understand larger signals.
Did you ever take a science class? If you did then surely you did experiments where you did multiple copies of the same experiment and recorded the data. INDIVIDUALLY each experiment might have behaved somewhat differently (some probably failed!). But the overall analysis of the data (averages, standard deviations, etc.) showed the most likely result.
Individually if you had taken one of the experiments that had "failed" you might draw the wrong conclusion about the experiment. Indeed the analysis of GROUP behavior is pretty much why you have the world you have today. The advances you enjoy in society and technology all come from that center.
You like what is called "anecdotal data" which is exactly how one DOESN'T learn anything.
