A Question of Identity: What Is Race?

Is race a biological or a social construct? In this program, ABC News correspondent Jim Wooten examines the question through the experience of Wayne Nelson, a high school principal who decided to find out just "how much" of him was African after seeing a story about a firm offering DNA ancestry testing. The unexpected results made Nelson rethink his whole identity. (23 minutes)
