Years ago I found a book called 'Race' in the local library. Can't remember the author, Baker? Bakker? no doubt I shall remember next week when the little man in the brown dust coat at the back of my skull finds it. The salient point for this thread, disregarding different bone fusion skull patterns in Lapps etc, was the recapitulation of IQ scores from the 1917 US draft. The average for Blacks was 5 points behind whites. Ah, you say, culturally disadvantaged not integrated etc. Then you will discover that Asians were 5 points ahead of whites although in many ways in 1917 almost ghettoised, and descended largely from coolie labourers brought in to do pick and shovel work on railways. As to American blacks, the original imports were the survivors of extraordinary brutality and deprivation, and after arriving no little white genes must have been absorbed, largely without consent I would imagine. How many African-Americans are so to speak pure bred I do wonder.
I have long thought that if China ever shakes Communism loose and liberates individual creativity, the West is finished.

He was the bloke that stopped the chinese navy/merchant fleet from going anywhere and when you see what the Chinese ships of the time were like (10 times the size of European ships) it does make you wonder what would have happened if they hadn't scrapped the lot.
