Karen,
Races is a terrible choice of words.
Cultures shouldn't change and rather be preserved.
Assimilation into other societies has been best exhibited by the Aborgines
forced into the Australian culture.
The internet for the past 20 years has, in part, thanks to the rapid
communication channels such as usnet, forced many cultures to debate and
failing that, change due to "popular opinion." This is the worst side-
effect of the Internet on mankind.
Not in my humble opnion.
