How did birds evolve wings?
A partial wing is of no use for flying, but natural selection can't plan ahead and allow a species to gradually evolve toward wings that are actually useful for flying.
Evolutionary biologists suspect that wings originally evolved for some purpose other than flight, and then later were coopted for flying.
Researchers have proposed a wide range of possible original purposes for wings, ranging from thermoregulation to knocking down insects to running up hills.

'Such confident, sweeping, racist generalizations appeared often, impugning not just Africans and Indigenous Americans, but also Jewish people, Catholics, Irish immigrants, Germans, & Mexican Americans. Systems of racial thought evolved over time, changing who could be included in the White elite'
