Endogamy is the custom of marrying only within the limits of a local community, clan, or tribe. It is a requirement of racial structure. One could argue that racial distinctions are more than exclusionary, they are inclusionary.
A few hundred years ago, aristocrats seemed like a race apart from ordinary Englishmen. They were taller. They spoke with a different accent. Endogamy was a requirement among the aristocratic class.
One wonders about the current academic caste. Are they a subset that abhors the more servile working people? Could they be a race?
