One thing you should consider is that genetic diversity is highest between people in Africa. So two Africans who look the same to you might be more genetically different than European from Asian. In this sense race is not really scientific. Because it doesn't reflect general genetic similarity or diversity but rather a very small subset that's intersection of adaptions to local environment and things that are easily visible just by looking at someone.

African is not a race, but Haduo and Tigre are.

If you are lumping them together into "African", then I agree that _your_ notion of race is wrong. But not the concept as a whole.

Ask a random passerby if they ever heard about Haduo or Tigre races. Then ask them again if they heard about Black or White race. You can't make general claims based on how you understand the words.
