"Race qua race"?

[007XX]

Can anyone explain to me the meaning of the following term please? Race qua race.

I came across it on another site and have been trying to google an explanation but am coming up with a big fat nothing.
And I find that highly irritating.

Now, since I know how many clever folks are on here, I figured I'd ask. Ta muchly in advance.

NO!

Were there any other words surrounded Race qua race that gave you any hint of what it may mean?
Finding the english word for qua would be a help.

Just checked and qua (Vietnamese) means by in English.

Race by race ?

Hmmm... Cheers guys.

I was assuming it was a term used in racial taxonomy. I just can't find something that confirms it, or gives meaning of the term within contextual sentences.

Yes, I've been on this one. Just couldn't quite understand what context one would use the term in a conversation.

A nip of gin it said toddler's milk .... Or in the milk provider (if breast fed)

Air NZ did it for years ...

Race qua race, another culture may use a tad of cannabis or opium

Lol... I really *shouldn't* enjoy your opinions so much.

But anywho... However much I may be taking liberties with my own body, my children are raised as healthily as I can make it.

If they decide to imbibe once they have left my care, that will be their choice

Yes, that does help, thank you. And I now have a new favourite word: ninnyhammer

Here is the sentence where I saw the term in question:

"He already knew what I looked like though, so he was just asking to know my race qua race. "

Context: someone had asked this person what race they hailed from, and the addressee had taken offence.

Is that a hammer a ninny uses ... or a hammer you hit ninnys with ... ???
