	Capitalism & Racism
		Racism as an ideology is a form of biological determinism, premised on the idea that different human populations ("races") have different capacities because of their genetic makeup.
		Racism did not originate from a single source, but rather from a combination of several strands of historical development that came together into an ideology with considerable persuasive power.
		Racism is one of the key means by which the economic and social hierarchies of the capitalist world are ideologically "naturalized." At the top of the pyramid, because of their fitness to rule, sit white, bourgeois men.

	Racism - MSN Encarta
		Racism, doctrine, belief, or assumption that inherited biological differences cause some human subpopulations to be fundamentally different from, or superior to, others.
		In this sense, racism originated in the mid-19th century, although evidence of racial discrimination can be detected in much earlier historical periods.
		By the end of the 20th century an equally general view was that the “problem” was not race but racism, meaning both the prevalence of racist doctrine and the practice of racial discrimination.

	rootswomen.com - Ayanna - The Hamitic ( Semitic) Hypothesis and Scientific Racism
		Racism has been traditionally defined as "...a form of racial prejudice that was justified by the dogma that some groups of people inherit characteristics- intellectual and temperamental- that make them inferior to others" Both scientific racism and the Hamitic Hypothesis achieved this function.
		Scientific Racism then set out to anchor this belief in scientific fact while the Hamitic Hypothesis acted as a sort of safety net to counter prove, in light of the discovery of African civilizations in Ancient Egypt, that it could not have been created by indigenous Africans.
		Although racism did exist before the 18th century, the scientific racism that was to be a hallmark of the 18th and 19th anthropometry was a systematic reasoning and scientific justification of already existing racist ideologies.

	Racism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Racism is sometimes defined as the theory that hereditary racial differences include traits of intellect and character; as such, it is a proposition whose truth can only be determined empirically.
		Racism, on the one hand, and conservatism and nationalism, on the other, do have some similarities, which is why they can and must be considered together as specific parts of the generic Right.
		Racism, in fact, cannot in any way be reconciled with either conservatism or nationalism: it is a totally different thing, as radical and dangerous as communism and libertarianism.

	Sample Chapter for Fredrickson, G.M.: Racism: A Short History.
		But racism as I conceive it is not merely an attitude or set of beliefs; it also expresses itself in the practices, institutions, and structures that a sense of deep difference justifies or validates.
		Racism in this sense is neither a given of human social existence, a universal "consciousness of kind," nor simply a modern theory that biology determines history and culture.
		Racism is therefore not merely "xenophobia"--a term invented by the ancient Greeks to describe a reflexive feeling of hostility to the stranger or Other.

	William H. Tucker / The Funding of Scientific Racism
		The Pioneer Fund, established in 1937 by Wickliffe Preston Draper, is one of the most controversial nonprofit organizations in the United States.
		This evidence demonstrates that any results of genuine, scientific value produced with the fund's support have been a salutary, if incidental, consequence of its actual purpose: to provide ammunition for what has essentially been a lobbying campaign to prevent the full participation of fls in society and the polity.
		"The Funding of Scientific Racism is compelling and readable.

	HIV & AIDS - AIDS and Africa: A case of racism vs science?
		It is perhaps unwise to assume a consensus view of racism where none may exist, and for our purposes we would consider racism to be the ideology promoted initially by the Caribbean sugar-planters and slave-merchants to justify, sustain and defend their activities so important to the enrichment of Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries.
		Although racism in its various manifestations has come under increasing challenge in recent years it remains a potent influence, and it is naive to believe that medical science is immune to this particular poison.
		Racism is an irrational system of beliefs without scientific foundation, and much of the confused, contradictory and simply nonsensical conclusions reached by the scientists about AIDS and Africa can be attributed to their attempts to square their research findings with their racist preconceptions, rather than objective scientific reality.

	Scientific racism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Scientific racism is any publication or propaganda with the veneer of science which was fabricated to support a racist paradigm.
		In the years after the war, the discovery of the Holocaust and the Nazi abuses of scientific research (such as the ethical violations of Josef Mengele and other war crimes which were revealed at the Nuremberg Trials) led to a widespread repudiation of the use of science to support racist causes within the scientific community.
		As a result of this historical evolution of the idea of race, the pejorative term "scientific racism" or simply "racism" is still sometimes incorrectly applied even to those activities of scientists who seek to understand the nature of the differences between races or geographically separated populations for medical, anthropological, or even genealogical purposes.

		Nazi racism was a direct outgrowth of the broader trajectory of European nationalism but represented an extreme and even atavistic embodiment of it.
		Nazi racism was not a distinct or separate phenomena or sui generis.
		Nazi racism and policies in Eastern Europe, Poland and the occupied regions of the Soviet Union, were also not sui generis, but were a direct outgrowth of the broader European trajectory of nationalism and imperialism.

	Combating Racism
		However, he acknowledges that, despitethe significant contribution of biologists to the elimination of "the fallacious mythology of racial superiority,"social scientists should be encouraged "to explore the hidden and subconscious elements of racism and ways in which it manifests itself" (ibid., para.
		The battle against pseudo-scientific racism having been largely won, emphasis on this element of racism is now imperative if greater recognition of the social and spiritual dimensions of humanity's fundamental unity is to occur.
		It should also be noted that declarations in accordance with article 14 of the foregoing Convention, on communications from individuals and groups of individuals, would also serve to enhance significantly the development and efficacy of the international human rights instruments and engender greater international co-operation.

	Racism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Historical economic or social disparity is alleged to be a form of discrimination which is caused by past racism, affecting the present generation through deficits in the formal education and kinds of preparation in the parents' generation, and, through primarily unconscious racist attitudes and actions on members of the general population.
		Reverse racism is a term used to describe attitudes, behaviors, and policies which are racially discriminatory in a manner which is contrary to a historical pattern of racial discrimination.
		Early modern racism was opposed to nationalism and the nation-state: the comte de Montlosier, in exile during the French Revolution, who borrowed Boulainvilliers' discourse on the "Nordic race" as being the French aristocracy that invaded the plebeian "Gauls", thus showed his despise for the Third Estate calling it "this new people born of slaves...

	Evolution is racist - EvoWiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		So-called "scientific creationism" preceded Darwin's theory of evolution, and it was the "scientific creationist" that actually introduced "racism" into the field of biology, not Darwin or the theory of evolution.
		"Scientific racism" emerged about the same time that Darwin published "The Origin of Species", HOWEVER, this was due to the growing racial tensions in America leading up to the Civil War, and "scientific racism" preceded "The Origin of Species" by several years.
		The "scientific racists" were creationists, who argued that fls and "Indians" were inferior in order to justify slavery and the extermination of natives.

		Any false scientific view of race that equates racial differences with racial superiority or inferiority may be defined as scientific racism.
		Institutional racism may not necessarily involve intent because it may be submerged in the history, structure, and function of the institution.
		Racism is an excessive and irrational belief in or advocacy of the superiority of a given group, people, or nation, on racial grounds alone.

	"Scientific Racism" in Enlightened Europe: Linnaeus, Darwin, and Galton
		The concept of racism did not always exist: in fact, it only really began with the ideas of the Enlightenment, mainly those that focused on evolution.
		One of the historical peaks of scientific racism was the establishment of eugenics.
		Francis Galton, who happened to be cousin to Darwin, is conventionally held responsible for the beginning of this scientific study of breeding and its improvement.

	Gene Expression: The classical origins of racism
		I will not even consider whether the Romans were the source of modern racism, even during their Republican phase they periodically extended the franchise to notables and confederates, and I think their Republican and Augustan suspicion of things "Oriental" must be tempered by their thorough post-Augustan cosmopolitanism.
		But, it is important to consider what one means by "racism," and I am not so sure that a modern concept of racism would really apply to the ancients (as opposed to xenophobia).
		The reasoning is transparent: the scientific method results in an inflection point in terms of technological and social change, and force projection through arms.

		It is a pity that in the United States, the country with the most advanced scientific/technological resources in the world, there is such a persistence of mumbo jumbo at the point where science challenges ingrained prejudice.
		The traditional scientific racists who still have a foothold in academia, admirers of The Bell Curve,”; by Richard J. Herrnstein and Charles Murray, believe in the heritability of IQ, which they automatically assume correlates with some fundamental biological difference between people, transmitted through the genes.
		Many of these “scientific racists” claim to be scientific because they have statistical proof of the correlation between IQ and race.

	When Scientific Ideology Was a Mask for Racism - February 22, 2006 - The New York Sun
		But racism, in its early-20th-century heyday, was about more than simple hatred, though a particularly insidious form of inhumanity always lay at its heart.
		As the word itself suggests, racism, like communism, originally purported to be a science, or at least a scientific ideology - that is, a way of ordering human life based on alleged facts about nature.
		But one thing remained constant: The advocates of scientific racism, whether progressive American doctors or Nazi murderers, were always certain that they themselves belonged to the best racial stock.

	The Mis-portrayal of Darwin as a Racist
		So-called "scientific racism" emerged around the same time that Darwin published his theory of evolution, but from a completely different group of people and for completely different reasons.
		The primary "scientific racists" were creationists who believed that science supported Biblical scripture, and that scripture supported slavery and the domination of one group over another.
		To be sure racism has many causes and it would not be accurate to place all of the blame on religion, but clearly racism and hatred of fls was strongest among the opponents of evolution.

		One of the co-authors of the amendment removing the anti-Darwin language from the resolution remarked, “I don’t know if it is our place to be making the determination that Charles Darwin was a racist.”[2] Broome, meanwhile, blamed the media for “demonizing” her and misinforming the public about the intent of her resolution.
		“It’s unusual to have state-level legislation,” Scott observed, “but the idea itself [Darwin as progenitor of racism] is pervasive both in the anti-evolution literature from the creationists and also, unfortunately, in the fl community.”[4]That the association of Darwinism with racism should be particularly widespread in the African-American community is at first rather surprising.
		Racism, he wrote, “in the form of racial hatreds, racial warfare, the assumption of racial superiority or inferiority, and other such virulent offshoots, is strictly a product of evolutionary thinking.”[8]

		This is a challenging module to study because racism itself is an illusive concept to define or indeed observe in real life.
		Like attitude racism is often inferred from thoughts, feelings and behaviour.
		For example, aversive racism may be argued as the adoption of an attitude that results from assimilating an egalitarian value system with racist beliefs and values.
