its an incontrovertible fact that blokes pedaling racial inequality have been floundering and flopping for the past fifty years and more. if a bloke was fair dinkum about racial inequality he'd be piggybacking on the petticoats of women in the mould of Pauline Hansen and Sarah Palin, if you'll pardon the pun. its the last best shot to stem the tidal wave of equality engulfing humanity as women all over the world gain equal status with men, from which everything else
follows, but even then its all circus and no cigar. Posted by whistler, Tuesday, 27 April 2010 11:03:04 PM

David,
I asked a specific question, find me an Indigenous African or Asian whose achievements across the fields of endeavour engaged by Stephen Jay Gould could reasonably be described as comparable. If Gould was right in his assumptions about Race then Squeers could have come straight back with an answer, in the end all I got was abuse,so I win again.Since no answer has been forthcoming then I must conclude that Gould himself was a contradiction of his own objections to sociobiology and determinism. These lists of "Black Inventors" need to be understood for what they are,a few African Americans hold patents, some of them hold a number of patents.Holding a patent does not mean that they "invented" something, it means in most cases that they altered or improved some technology that already existed. http://guywhite.wordpress.com/2009/07/15/black-invention-myths/ http://inventors.about.com/od/blackinventors/a/black_myths.htm G.W, Carver's many "inventions" for example were mostly useless and impractical modifications of other people's patents. Furthermore why is it that my posts contain more actual quotes and information from Black people and Black perspectives than anyone else's?

whistler,
What on earth has Sarah Palin got to do with all this? Why do you drag her into a bun fight over racism? Do you hate her because she didn't kill her Down Syndrome child? Posted by Proxy, Tuesday, 27 April 2010 11:28:51 PM

Proxy if you looked up a site referred to on this thread you may have come across this:
http://www.amren.com/ar/2008/11/index.html#cover "Sarah Palin as running mate actually gives race realists someone they can vote for instead of just sitting out the election". "Even the fact that Sarah Palin’s youngest child has Down Syndrome carries a pro-white message — it reminds careerist white women in their 30s that once they are in their 40s, the chances of having a Down Syndrome baby rises rapidly. It’s best to get moving if they want a healthy family." Sarah Palin is the darling of racial inequality, the final shot in the barrel, and again, plenty circus no cigar.

Most of the racists in this country are weak, inconsequential people. They are not the majority even though they like to pretend that they are.
