人权问题可能是冲突、抵抗和冷漠的话题;因此，这些问题在传统的大学STEM课程中很少被提及。在这篇文章中，我分享的过程，内容，和用于向大学生介绍种族单一性的生物学和性身份的生物学的来源。只需举行一两次关于生物学与人权之间联系的课堂讨论会，学生就能认识到，人体解剖学和生理学等领域的科学课程应涉及人权问题;科学课程可用作帮助解释人类差异的场所，这些讨论对学生具有个人意义和用处。
Abstract Human rights issues can be topics of conflict, resistance, and indifference; thus, these issues are seldom broached in traditional college STEM courses. In this article, I share process, content, and sources used to introduce college students to the biology of the singularity of race and the biology of sexual identity. One or two class meetings on the connections between biology and human rights were all that was necessary for students to recognize that science courses in fields such as human anatomy and physiology should address human rights issues; science courses can be used as venues to help explain human differences, and these discussions can be of personal significance and use to students.
