Sir Francis Galton 1822-1911

I believe in: Superiority of the

racesPositive eugenics. I

am Darwin’s cousin and he

Theory

Race as the term we know today begins in Europe as a result of European imperialism that allowed Europeans to come into contact with other group of a somewhat different look.

Galton’s Africa for the Chinese

But take a globe and examine it, and consider the huge but poorly-peopled bulk of Africa, by whose side the areas of India and of China look insignificant, and think what a field lies there for the development of a suitable race.

The Arab is little more than an eater up of other men’s produce; he is a destroyer rather than a creator.

Chinese immigrants would not only maintain their position, but that they would multiply and their descendants supplant the inferior Negro race.

Average negroes possess too little intellect, self-reliance, and self-control to make it possible for them to sustain the burden of any respectable form of civilization without a large measure of external guidance and support.
