"It is said that the aboriginal Australian, the lowest known species of the human family, just a step higher than the chimpanzee in brain development, has so little sexual control that police authority alone prevents him from obtaining sexual satisfaction on the streets."

You're extrapolating a result of climatology applied to evolution of human intelligence of and you are jumping to the conclusion that if the guy is darker he is less clever. Go slowly there. Guys got there, dug some skulls and measure them in relation to latitude. The farther away from the Equator, the bigger the brain volume. That is there were inside more brain cells. That doesn't lead to the conclusion that the guy in the northern is cleverer in absolute terms. Intelligence is a result of a set of circumstances not of black and white. Besides that you need to dig for one million years at every step you move from the Equator towards the North for this to be conclusive. I explain: If you dig in northern Sweden, you get a map of the size of the guys as you dig deeper. Then you analyze that data and you will discover the following. There were huge guys 1000 years ago, then pygmies, than mid size, then big one the pigmies, big guys again and so it goes. You will notice that as you dig through the history of the guys living there, their size, femur, skulls, dicks, brain have varied according to the availability of food. If do this near the Equator, (dig ad nauseam like you did in northern Sweden) it is going to be the same thing, more food, big persons, less food small person and so on. Now you are going to tell me, brain only grow as allowed by the cooling capacity of the body. More heat near the equator the guy must have had small cells inside his skull. You have not seen the capacity of a Negro work under the sun. You know why they were taken to the new world to cut sugar cane and pick cotton? Because their body is built to dissipate heat. Today if you take a snap shot and tell there are less intelligent person per Km2 in Africa because they do not dominate the knowledge that the non-Africans do, it is true. But that doesn't mean they are less intelligent. That means they are having a raw deal since the set of circumstances are working against them.
