"...a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own is superior and has the right to rule others."
Thanks, Follies. Good references.
With regard to that definition, it is clear that Europeans (Whites) are far more evolved, intellectually and culturally, than sub-Saharan Africans (Blacks). As evidence, Sub-Saharan Africans never developed their own written language [1] at the time of Europeans colonizing in Africa. Nor has Africa ever developed anything of merit or significance in the world (e.g, home, car, airplane, toaster, higher mathematics, etc.) Absolutely nothing.
Furthermore, a considerable volume of academic research has gone into the science of intelligence. The Bell Curve and similar publications clearly found that Africans have the lowest IQs on Earth, by far. In contrast, Northeast Asians were found to be slightly ahead of northern Europeans with the second highest IQs on Earth, and Ashkenazi Jews possessed the highest mean IQs on Earth. Of course, the very smartest Africans are more intelligent than the least intelligent Ashkenazi Jews. Such are the properties of a gaussian distribution (e.g., bell curve).
Using the strictest definitions of superiority, if Europe as a whole decided to destroy all human life in Africa, the task could be accomplished with relative ease. In contrast, if Africa decided to destroy all human life in Europe, first of all, they would be unable to fully conceive of such a plan to begin with, much less develop and execute such a plan. Consequently, which race is superior by natural standards in which one could completely eradicate the other?
The racial differences are still very profound in America today, but have been partially mitigated due to amalgamation through miscegenation.

So, while I believe that Europeans are superior to Africans intellectually and culturally, I do not believe that gives Whites the right to rule over Blacks, as the definition suggests. Race should not play any role in how others are treated, which is why we must demand the end of affirmative action laws, civil rights laws, racial quotas, gerrymandering, etc. Are not such constructs a full admission by the government that Blacks are inferior and need tremendous help just to survive? It really is the pink elephant in the room than no one wants to discuss, but I'm tired of my taxes being used for that purpose. |
