Interracial Dating Negatively Impacts Cultures and Undermines true Diversity.

My opponent in his opening does state that I've said integration doesn't effect culture, which is true. I apologize, it was a badly articulated statement. My following statement that race doesn't necessarily effect culture is what I was attempting to say. Still, my opponent admits that yes, there are positive effects of integration like I have pointed out that positively impact cultures, but he does not show any negative effects of races integrating into cultures, he simply says that they're there. Without any examples, this point simply doesn't stand. So far, we've only seen positive examples of it happening on a wide scale, and my opponent has failed to show the negatives. My opponent then goes onto how discuss how that interracial dating does positively effect music, art and such, but never goes on to state any negatives of it in regard to culture. My opponent attempts to then argue that interracial dating is exhausting the supply of "pure" races, which is absurd. This isn't a mixing of all blacks and all whites, there's more diversity being added as various mixed-races are coming about, combining the features of both. This is adding more races than there were before, adding a vibrancy of racial groups.We're not running out of white or black people in this example, as their population is still growing. The fact is simple. We only had the two groups of races, now we have more. More races are created from the different racial groups mixing, and these new "mixed" race groups will further diversify amongst themselves. We're not running out of black or white groups, only growing in the amount. If interracial dating did not take place, we'd only have the original races and nothing more, which is clearly less diverse. My opponent once more states that people of a culture's original race are the only people able to perpetuate it. This is blatantly false, and my opponent has made no efforts to tie the concept of culture and race together. We can see different races perpetuating different cultures all the time throughout the world. Unless my opponent can tie these two concepts together, his point doesn't stand. My opponent talks then about how the cultures that integrated to create the newfound American cultures were "sacrificed", but this blatantly isn't true. English and French cultures contributed greatly to the new American cultures, but they were not destroyed in doing so. No, instead a new culture came about without the loss of the founders, making this point ridiculous. He then goes how to talk about how since common Chinese holidays aren't "traditional" holidays in American culture, which not only disproves his point that only people of the original race can perpetuate a culture, seeing as we can see many mixed race groups celebrating the cultures of their new land, such as with African-English men celebrating St George's Day, but also fails to recognize that in return Caucasian people can move to China and celebrate their cultures. My opponent has not only failed to tie race to culture, making claims like "Races are the only means of perpetuating culture", which we can see to be false with mixed race people celebrating the culture of the place they're in. He fails to acknowledge how culture is not destroyed in contributing to the building of a culture, seeing how French and English culture contributed to building a third culture without their destruction, increasing the amount of cultures, not lessening, he's failed to take into account that interracial dating increases the diversity through the mixing of these races, as where once we had two races we're now gaining additional ones, and we clearly haven't lost the original contributing races, only created a new more diverse group. Most importantly, my opponent continously makes the claim that only specific races can perpetuate cultures, which can see is false.
