This weekend i posted a few links to works by Gunther and Coon and a link to the SNPA site on a board on which me and some people were trying (albeit in vain) to have an intelligent discussion on why non white immigration ito ireland should not be accepted.
Now personally,from what ive read of physical anthropology and Coon and Gunther in particular it seems sensible to me and not ''offensive'' in the least but the people from the board on which we were posting did not agree!
So my question is about how people like these are viewed today.
Are they widely discredited or was it just the fact that i was attempting to talk sense to commies?
Was this type of classification more or less abandoned in the 50's or thereabouts?
Are people like Broca and Topinard's views - on the negro in particular - completely discarded by modern anthropologists?
Are the views of all these men more or less discredited by the general public now?
It appears to me (maybe im cynical lol) that the views and works created by Gunther,Coon and Beddoe etc are more than accurate,valid and interesting BUT that people like the communists and non whites dont approve of them so thus thats why theyre held up as pointless and discredited?
I would appreciate anyone's views on this.
