The Myth of Race

The Troubling Persistence of an Unscientific Idea

De: Robert Wald Sussman

Narrado por: David Colacci

Although eugenics is now widely discredited, some groups and individuals claim a new scientific basis for old racist assumptions. Pondering the continuing influence of racist research and thought, despite all evidence to the contrary, Robert Wald Sussman explains why - when it comes to race - too many people still mistake bigotry for science.

Thank you

A big thank you to Robert Wald Sussman for writing this. If the world were to read this I believe humanity would change for the better.

Without; we Have no easy path to our future

Ignore the 1 star reviews. They clearly didn’t look to fact check the book. Very revealing book and I highly recommend you look into the agencies he lists at the end.

Please open your eyes, mind and heart

This book should be required reading for first year med students, teachers, clergy, high school seniors and college freshmen. In order to change the lense of hatred, we have change the mind of the most influential people.

Although, America makes strides in tech, medicine ect.... Just imagine the collective effort of all humans in to progress a society into a collective and positive state of being and unity.

Very good

Must read book for all who want to know some history about how we got to we’re we are now on race.

The disease of racism.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone who thinks that racism in the U.S. doesn’t exist, or isn’t that bad.

intriguing layout of the history of racism

The fact that race has been known to be a made up thing since the 50s. Simply incredible book.

the more I learn about the European

this amplified the notion across the world that one race is better than another

Very deep look into a harsh reality

It really puts things into a new perspective reading/listening to this book. It is even more interesting when paired with ‘The Isis Papers’ bt Francis Cress Welsing.

Also, to further see how bogus the claims that white people are the only culture who have made significant achievements, read ‘The Destruction of the Black Civilization’ by Chancellor Williams

An Eye Opener on The Myth of Race

For decades I have wondered what racism is about, where it came from, and how people fell into that mindset. This book cleared that up for me. It clearly outlines when and where racism started, how it was introduced into these United States and the world.

What is Eugenics? Who started it? What happened when the Nazis got a hold of it? These questions and more are answered in this book. As I listened, I searched the Internet for the many historical documents mentioned and found the original writings which added to my understanding.

I highly recommend this book.

Excellent history of race in America

This book gives a detailed history of the eugenics movement in America an the attempts by wealthy Wasps to control the non-white population in the USA by any means, including forced sterilization.
