Oh man, came across this just now looking up more mono chromatic race info....
Eye color percentages vary according to which population is studied. Obviously, the percentage of dark brown eyes found in Asian and African populations will be much higher than in European populations.And some day, blue may be a rare eye color. This is because more people now select mates outside usual cultural and ethic groups. So when a brown-eyed person marries someone with blue eyes, offspring are more likely to inherit the more dominant brown eyes.
...that would be a crying shame. Blue (and green) eyes are SO beautiful.
Likely $$$ will always be a dividing factor, and if not that, humans will find something else. It's what the ego does. "I'm better than you," is gonna be part of human thinking for as long as death terror lurks in the depths of our unconscious.
Because of this, no, I don't think we will all be the same color eventually. At some point (perhaps several), "Purists" will rise up and resist the notion. And personally, I find the potential reality of everyone looking the same frighteningly boring.
Unity in Diversity is how the universe works. Beautiful, wondrous diversity, with all parts equal in their worth. The ego -- ie, the illusion we all imagine ourselves to be, instead of who/what we truly are -- needs to catch up with this. Let's hope the human race survives long enough for that to happen.

Good points.
I've always wondered, is that a reason why aliens visit us, our racial diversity?
You hear descriptions of different looking aliens from abductees, but no diversity within each description. Grays are all gray...
Assuming aliens are real which is a whole different subject, i know.
I suppose all the black Grays are working in asteroid mines. Rayciss jokes aside, descriptions of aliens virtually always follow dominating pop culture trends. And movies, TV shows, etc. almost never bother depicting any kind of diversity within alien races.
