  Unelected heads of state is clear.

  So the kings and queens who hold no political power?

  History shows us that racism is to Europe as fish to the sea.

  Racism was everywhere during human history.

        The familiar paradigm of five human races was born in the year 1795—at the transitional moment between the rationality of the Enlightenment and the emotional fervour of Romanticism—when a German doctor, Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, set out the distinct characteristics of those groups he called Caucasians Mongolians, Ethiopians, Americans, and Malays. counterpunch.org/…/the-science-of-race-and-the-ra…
