The individual is not to blame for the racial differences between people. The differences are endemic beginning with the DNA. The idea that the differences don’t matter is simply wrong since the argument begins with the very ideas of the differences. How can things that are inherently different be considered the same. They cannot but: big but here. If one begins with the idea of race based differences being wrong then one cannot reach the idea of humanity. Race based differences are correct and are based on simple observation. Therefore they are neither right or wrong. They simply are. Whatever conclusions are made on the basis of racial differences may be right or wrong. The way people are treated on the basis of race based differences may be right or wrong. Above all human behavior hovers the human concept of justice. Justice cannot be color blind if color is part of the make-up of the entity and it is.
So… What should be done about race? A lot and it all begins with observations based on it. There’s a book called: “RACE” written by John R. Baker a Oxford University professor, that book maps out almost every aspect of the biological differences between different races.
It describes species and races (subspecies); hybrids; and those theories of evolution that allow the various groups of animals to be graded as more or less primitive or advanced.
Drawing on physical and cultural anthropology, paleontology, prehistoric archaeology, art history, and nineteenth-century accounts of Africans until then secluded from contact with other human groups, this book features sections on Europids; the Jews; the Celts; the Australids; the Sanids (Bushmen); and the Negrids.
In the final part, Baker reviews in depth the evidence on heredity and cognitive ability and reaches the measured conclusion that in certain races a greater proportion of people are capable of developing high intelligence than in others.
The last section discusses who some races had achieved civilization and others have not. It explores the nature of civilization by using 23 criteria by which civilizations may be identified. Based on these criteria, it concludes that Mesoamerican societies were not civilizations, and that no indigenous civilizations ever arose in Africa.
