What's the difference between, say, white people and black people? It is that the white people's bodies have pale skin - or "white" if you prefer - and that black people's bodies have dark skin - or, perhaps, "black". Any discussion of white people vs black people must, then, at heart, be somehow about their bodies. Because that's exactly what "white" and "black" refer to. I assume the terminology is intended to deliberately draw one's attention to this.
