The following discussion about the reality of race was posted previously on The Official Website of Representative David Duke but it fits in well with our current series of articles and the facts that it presents bear repeating. Understanding the reality of race is fundamental to our continued survival. –Dave Cooper

The following was a statement released by Professor Phillippe Rushton of the University of Western Ontario in response to attempts to discredit the very concept of race and to argue that race “has no validity as a biological concept when applied to man.”

STATEMENT ON RACE AS A BIOLOGICAL CONCEPT
J. Philippe Rushton

November 4, 1996

Discussion of “race” shows little sign of diminishing, despite efforts to deconstruct the concept. Deconstructing the concept of race not only conflicts with people’s tendency to classify and build family histories according to common descent but also ignores the work of biologists studying non-human species. Ever since 1758, when the Swedish naturalist Carolus Linnaeus created the classification system still used in biology today, most zoologists have recognized at least the four human subdivisions Linnaeus delineated: Asians, American Indians, Europeans, and Africans. (Technically, some would group the first two Linnaean subdivisions together, thus yielding three major races, often termed, mongoloids, caucasoids, and negroids.) Such high-level classifications do not rule out making finer, hierarchical subdivisions within these major groups.

A race is what zoologists term a variety or subdivision of a species. Each race (or variety) is characterized by a more or less distinct combination of inherited morphological, behavioral, physiological traits. In flowers, insects, and non-human mammals, zoologists consistently and routinely study the process of racial differentiation. Formation of a new race takes place when, over several generations, individuals in one group reproduce more frequently among themselves than they do with individuals in other groups. This process is most apparent when the individuals live in diverse geographic areas and therefore evolve unique, recognizable adaptations (such as skin color) that are advantageous in their specific environments. But differentiation also occurs under less extreme circumstances. Zoologists and evolutionists refer to such differentiated populations as races. (Within the formal taxonomic nomenclature of biology, races are termed subspecies). Zoologists have identified two or more races (subspecies) in most mammalian species. (more…)

Here is a link from an article from the Israeli newspaper Ha’aretz about how Israel is trying to dictate to Ukraine who will have the freedom to run for office! It attacks me and the MAUP President Georgy Schokin. Very revealing article!

Israel urges Ukraine to ban Israel critic from parliamentary bid

By Yossi Melman, Haaretz Correspondent

Israel is demanding that Ukraine bar the parliamentary candidacy of Prof. Georgy Tchokin, president of Ukraine’s largest private university and considered the country’s most influential disseminator of anti-Semitic propaganda.

Multiracialists are Crazy

The ideas of racial “equality” and multiracialism as a social ethic are obviously crazy — as well as deadly.

by Kevin Alfred Strom

CRAZY PEOPLE say some really funny things, if you like absurd humor. A crazy person may believe that locomotives are actually made out of marshmallows. Or he may think that the only reason we can’t drink bleach without harmful effects is because we haven’t prayed to the right deity in precisely the right manner. And some lunatics are quite intelligent in their way, and may be able to produce creative and internally consistent arguments at some length to justify their positions, even if their premises are quite nutty. And all that’s good for a laugh.

For example, one Flat Earth believer insisted that the Earth was two-dimensional and shaped like a plate. And he could even explain how, on this plate-shaped Earth, people could apparently travel in a straight line and eventually end up back at their starting point. “They simply fall off the edge,” he said, “and since the Earth is two-dimensional with no thickness whatsoever, they ‘fall’ into an area comprising no space at all and reappear instantly on the opposite side of the plate to resume their straight-line journey back to their starting point.” (more…)
