Tamara Lanier attends a news conference near the Harvard Club on March 20 in New York. By Christopher D. E. Willoughby Christopher D. E. Willoughby is a scholar-in-residence in the Lapidus Center for the Historical Analysis of Transatlantic Slavery at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in New York City, where he is writing a book on racial science and slavery in American medical schools.
Agassiz’s beliefs and position in the scientific community expose the central and largely unquestioned role of white supremacy in the history of American science. That history further justifies the need for reparations for slavery and American racism, while underscoring that they are only one part of the reckoning that needs to happen.
Agassiz and his cohort occupied some of the most prestigious positions in American science, with polygenists holding professorships at Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Louisiana , among many other institutions. As the op-eds show, polygenesis was the norm in American science at the time, something believed by scientists as well as many average Americans. This support spanned class lines and cultural boundaries. In addition to the intellectually and politically active readership of the Liberator, at least one bar song was composed in defense of polygenesis and “Types of Mankind.”
The relationship between racism and science, then, was symbiotic. Agassiz and other scientists helped legitimize white supremacy as scientifically ordained, and white supremacy gave science popular appeal at an important juncture when scientists were attempting to define themselves as a coherent and authoritative profession.
Fake news!
I'm SURE the author's work at 'the Lapidus Center for the Historical Analysis of Transatlantic Slavery at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture' is very scientific. And I'm sure his advocacy for reparations and calling outdated theories racist is very scientific
CIMrB
Serbian constitution from 1835 yr says 'any slave that steps on Serbian ground becomes a free man'. Serbian people is white and there is no way they can be called white supremacists. So calling all white people supremacists is actually a racism against whites.
I think we should import conservatives from Canada, and export leftists to Canada and Mexico. Mexico will instantly fund the wall, and since Canada cant be more FUBAR then they already are, win win.
Oh for Christ’s sake 🙄
It matters because you're exploiting it to further your own progressive bollocks agenda.
And that's okay. Whites are supreme in many ways.
WaPo Perspective: Race. Just Race.
THE FIRST MAN HAD DARK SKIN THATS BEEN PROVEN, THE BOOK OF GENESIS IN THE BIBLE TELLS US EXACTLY WHERE THE GARDEN OF EDEN WAS LOCATED THERE IS HARDLY ANY WHITE PEOPLE IN THAT REGION OF THE WORLD TODAY SO ITS VERY POSSIBLE THERE WERE NO WHITE PEOPLE AT ALL IN THE REGION BACK THEN.
Because how else are conniving leftists going to manipulate and cheat their way to power? The goal of these academics and journalists is not the social or economic equality of “marginalized” groups. The goal is to shut down speech with which they disagree.
It matters today because some people want to receive the world for what it COULD be versus the way it actually is.
More Cultural Marxism propaganda from the elites.
