Question.1285 - Summary: In this episode John Biewen explores how scientists weren’t the first to divide humanity along racial – and racist – lines. But for hundreds of years, racial scientists claimed to provide proof for those racist hierarchies – and some still do. (podcast linkLinks to an external site.) The scholar Dorothy Roberts says that eugenicists as far back as the 17th century used science to “confirm … their reality.” What “reality” were they trying to confirm? And in what ways was this continued into the 20th century? What does today’s genomic science say about biological/genetic significance of “race”? How do beliefs about racial/ethnic genetic superiority or inferiority show up in our everyday lives and culture?
