    National Geographic magazine has made a rare, and refreshing, admission of past racism. But its most recent cover story undermines this corrective: http://nyer.cm/BApYU4I pic.twitter.com/J2OVDNXkEZ

        So to piont out the mere fact that one girl is white, the other is black, - is racism? I've read the article, but still don't understand what is the fault of NG with this cover. Can anybody explain that?

        "Can anybody explain that?" Yes. Everyone is Black, because people & hominids have been adapting 2d African climate longer than any other on earth. Variation therefore is mainly deletions on the African genome. The pigmentation gene is set to 'black', w/out deletions. #SLC24A5

        So there is only one way to avoid "racism": to call white people black.

        There is no way to avoid racism, after 200 years of indoctrination. What can be done is to heed making laws around unprovable (pseudo) scientific theories, no matter how much money is put behind it. We've only mapped the genome for 13 years, race was conjured up in the 1800s.

        Yeah, sure it was conjured up in the 1800s. Thats why ancient Jews wiped out Caanites 5000 years ago and Jeanne d'Arc led the patriotic fight of French against Englishmen in 1400s.

        What does that have to do with 'races'?

        It proves that the false idea, cultivated by Benedict Anderson and others in 1970-1980s, that nations and races were "invented" in 1800, is apparantly wrong.

        Again, what does this have to do with races. In biology, the notion of sub-species (or 'race') is well defined, it is the last step before speciation and required at least 20% genetic diff. Modern populations do not conform to that definition. What else is there to say?

        Nat Geo also has pictorial archives - I’m told - that purport to show tails on certain Black peoples.

        Why are you so obsessed with race? Why are you are also imposing your American cultural and historical context on these very British girls?
