Ethnicity is the encompassing concept that includes race

Evidence

Milton M. Gordon (1988) argued that “the term ‘ethnic group’ is broad enough to include racial groups.” The inclusive quality of the term “ethnic group” becomes apparent in usage, for “all races, whatever cautious and flexible term we shall give to the term, are ethnic groups. But all ethnic groups, as conventionally defined, are not races” (1988:119). Ironically, it is thus the more inclusive quality of “ethnicity” that separates it somewhat from “race.” Gordon specifically states it: “The larger phenomenon, then, is not race but ethnicity which, as a sociological concept, includes race” (p. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 698
