W.E.B. Dubois On Black Dysgenics
>>“The mass of ignorant Negroes still breed carelessly and disastrously,
so that the increase among Negroes, even more than the increase among
whites, is from that portion of the population least intelligent and fit,
and least able to rear their children properly.” -NAACP founder W.E.B.
Dubois.
The question being begged here is why. What inner force compels this
behavior? When generation after generation of black men can witness with
their own eyes the damage their behavior causes, why don’t they change?
It’s time to ask whether they can, given the current approaches. Perhaps
Dubois had a point after all.
Do “racist” whites have a vested interest in black underachievement?
It is a horrible accusation, and with Kinists certainly untrue in the
extreme. But what procrustean method has not yet been tried to “make
them fit?” Perhaps the answer lies in the fact that culture is more than
intelligence. The eugenic sentiments of Dubois cannot be discussed in
polite circles because it underscores some impolite realities: the
achievement gap is at least partly genetically based and selectivity in
breeding is something that the black community apparently has either no
interest in promoting or they see them as contrary to their interests
(whether due to powerful “influences” from black leaders or what have
you). By contrast, the “negative eugenics” of selectivity in mating is
something reflexively practiced among the Caucasian and Oriental peoples.
There appears to be irresistible power in diminished expectations, but the
real tragedy is that no one can talk about why black men abandon their
offspring at a rate approaching 70% and what can be done about it, that
is, without fear of reprisal, unless the answer is “programs,” meaning
white money. And the reprisals are terrifying. Reductio ad eugenics is one
of the WMD’s of public discourse. It can be and often is
career-shattering, specially when leveled at whites. Nevertheless, much
the same has been uttered by figures ranging from Louis Farrakhan to Bill
Cosby. But who among mainstream blacks is listening? One thing is certain,
greater selectivity among black females in their choice of partners
couldn’t hurt. But a related question is this: where is the black church
in promoting these values, and what is it about the black church that
renders it so ineffective at doing what churches are supposed to do, that
is, having a morally salutary effect on their communities? What, we might
legitimately inquire, is being taught in black churches?
Kinists are the only Christian sect speaking openly about these issues,
but many obstacles lie in their path, not the least of which is the stigma
surrounding the topic of genetics itself, as it reveals that more and more
things that make us unique are at least partially hard-wired in the genes
at conception. Beyond the ordinary stigma, there is especial opprobrium
aimed at Christians who talk about the relationship between biology and
behavior. A short list of things Christians are not supposed to talk
about: physical anthropology (that unfortunate science), behavorial
genetics, psychometrics, or sociobiology. But their mundane corollaries
are affirmative action, immigration, and even tax cuts. Things shouted
down by the left as tantamount to [ahem] eugenics, or given the more
alarming nom de scare of “ethnic cleansing” which is the precise
reverse of what is actually occurring, namely ethnic cleansing of whites
and “whiteness.” Science is beginning to reveal that far from being
some rhetorical abstraction, there is real substance behind the notions of
“blackness” and “whiteness.”
Christians have plead for centuries that all men are equal, but what was
meant by that statement a hundred years ago is vastly different than what
is meant by it now. Equality before God and equality before the law are
vastly different matters than equality of culture, of potential, or
fitness or of accomplishment. Historically, the church has always
distinguished between these. In the first century AD, the negative
eugenics of arranged marriage operated within the context of spiritual
“equality,” and the principal of equal yoking of Christian with
Christian. A spiritual eugenics, perhaps? Genetics, psychometry, physical
anthropology are each revealing our important differences in distinct
ways. Those differences are far from being limited to intelligence.
Kinists are often accused of a latent Darwinism, but this could not be
farther from the truth. Indeed, Kinists would believe exactly as they do
whether there were genetic differences between ethnicities or not.
Cultural differences created by centuries of behavioral patterns,
collective memory engendered by folkways, these alone would be enough to
recommend separation to us. Not separation from hatred, but from love; not
separation with dependence, but separation leading the way to a new dignity
for all peoples alike. It’s time that blacks, whites, orientals, and
Hispanics went their separate ways to the mutual benefit and appreciation
of each. We can only hope that the reflexive and common sense negative
eugenics of selectivity and fidelity will find its way into wide practice
in the black community."<<
