1. Laugh at the absurd suggestion that race isn't biological and real. For many people this is enough because they do not believe that race doesn't exist deep down. If they see you laugh at the idea, that can be influential (particularly to people listening in).
2. Different dog breeds are social constructs as well, yet different breeds are biologically different in significant and noticeable ways. Homo Sapiens Sapiens, just like the Canis Lupus Familiaris, is not exempt from internal differentiation into sub-species (aka races).
3. There cannot be evolution by natural selection without human differentiation. Furthermore, like every other mammal species on earth, with geographical separation (even over very short time periods) there is group evolution (this cannot be avoided in a species that reproduces through sexual reproduction). Group evolution is the basis of racial differentiation, subspeciation. If they deny that race exists they must deny that evolution by natural selection occurs.
