When embarking on a Landmark Multimedia Event™ called ‘Black in America’, it’s best not to risk your black-people-love-us-cred by, er, credulously citing avowed racists as experts on teh Negroes. Just a thought.

My eyes are really playing tricks on me. When I first saw the name of Sailer’s institute, I thought it read Human Bloodthirsty Institute.
And oh no! There’s Phillipe Rushton again! How many incarnations does that guy get?

skdadl, I remember watching that report and wondering why CNN was even interviewing Rushton, let alone why they neglected to point out his dodgy intellectual pedigree.

I just heard about this…They certainly took this documentary seriously didn’t they? I want the four hours of my life back that I wasted on this shit.
