The "American" Anthropological Association

[permela]

The following is a summary of the political agenda, opinions and goals expressed by the Executive Board of the American Anthropological Association (AAA), e.g., via the links below:

* Only one race and species of mankind exists.

* "Race" has been scientifically proven to NOT be a real, natural phenomenon.

* NONE of the inequalities between so-called "racial" groups are caused by genetic differences. All of them are caused by world-wide historical and contemporary social, economic, educational, political and religious circumstances (i.e., racism and tribalism).

* The folk myth of genetic and racial differences is a pernicious world-wide social mechanism that was invented by evil American slavers during the 18th century, in order to justify and rationalize prejudice, inequality, exploitation, slavery, genocide and the ideology of National Socialism.

* All racial identities are false, and should be eliminated by the secular and religious mass broadcast mediaocracy, etc. via propaganda.

* Euphemisms that are related to geography, skin color and ethnicity should be used instead of the scientific names of races, e.g., in all government census, etc. records.

* "It is important to recognize the racial categories to which individuals have been assigned historically in order to be vigilant about the elimination of discrimination" (i.e., affirmative action?).

The AAA's anti-speciation web pages at:
* http://www.americananthro.org/ConnectWi ... umber=2583.

imply that expressions that are contrary to some of its opinions above may be hate speech that leads to a holocaust.

Why do you think Lysenko would laugh at the American Anthropological Association?
