What I'm saying is that the people in this "group" may have almost nothing in common at all, except for having a darker shade of skin color.

Aka get rid of the simple descriptors of "white" "black" etc since they mean very little or nothing at all.

these descriptions mean a lot when they determine how you're treated by society

That darker shade causes them to be mistreated in similar ways by American society.
