Barry:Jensen and Shockley were stars, were, were Pioneer stars, and they received huge amounts of money from The Pioneer Fund. There were some consequences, though. That's amazing amount of territory to traverse when you are one of the leading fascist academic and organizers in the world. So, [laughter] that's how I knew the police didn't do it, because if they had done it, they would have done it right. Rigo:Some of it was just completely bonkers. Archival of Shockley:My research leads me inescapably to the opinion that the major cause of the American Negro's intellectual and social deficits is hereditary and racially genetic in origin.

That's what it was all about, they wanted to resurrect their movement to come after my son. He's an academic like Rushton, but less prestigious. Rigo:No, not at all. Instead, they used various combinations. Uh, they had the platform. During the War of 1870, astronomer Jules Janssen risked his life for scientific prestige and French patriotism. The precursor to all the daytime talk shows that arose during the 1980's and 90's. Barry's Jewish identity was visible to everyone all the time. Rigo:Exactly.

It's kind of a misunderstanding, or a misuse of Darwin's theory of evolution, and it's actually interesting that it's Darwin's cousin, his half cousin, Sir Francis Galton, who really advocates for this idea of genetic determinism. Find out all the details of his life So they could see it. Suddenly I'm in the suburbs of New York, and I'm walking down, uh, a street and a car drives by, and there's, uh, a, a father and his son, and the son screams out the window at me, you know, something like, "You dirty [expletive]."

Los Angeles - 1985 - Janet Leigh Jamie Lee Curtis.mp4, Terms of Service (last updated 12/31/2014).

The group behind it bombed a synagogue in 1958, just to give you a sense of who they were. In fact, he spent his whole career going after people like Rushton, poking holes at their arguments, trying to get people to see them for what they really are, racist scientists. Actually, this brings something up for me. He's unorthodox, and he points out how Rushton's ideas are kind of ridiculous. Ironically, the Third Reich thought that this was too extreme for them, and so they didn't use the one drop of Jewish blood made you Jewish. The Pioneer Fund was just handing over cash. Barry:At the time, we had been getting a lot of death threats, and so And by the way, I wouldn't go to the police. Rigo:When Bill Tucker was doing research for his book, The Funding of Scientific Racism, he made a list of all the American scientists he could think of who were promoting theories of black inferiority or segregation, and then he went to the various archives to see if he could find connections between them and The Pioneer Fund.

He and I were both reading The Thunderbolt, right? Barry:You know when you don't want to know? He accuses Mehler of character assassination, bias, and of being a left wing nut. Rigo:Until a dark side came out. This guy is so off his rocker. So, method one is fund scientists who agree with their eugenics world view. Phil Donahue's Jensen was willing to take a stand, and he knew what he was doing. Bill:In general, Pioneer funded two different groups of recipients. He had a much more prestigious position than, than I had. Now, while the video, the language in that video is profane. This We're not making progress here. Lisa:So really what The Pioneer Fund is doing is making bad ideas even worse. Angela:And the consensus was set in stone really by UNESCO, um, in the 1950s in a set of declarations in which they essentially stated that race is a social construct, it doesn't have any biological validity, and that was signed by a number of scientists, anthropologists, policymakers all over the world. Lisa:So basically Mehler's kitchen table would have been filled with racist propaganda hate mail 24/7 365? Is this a secret conspiracy, or is any of it happening in the open? Barry:I don't need to have credit. I, I think they hate him, which raises the question for me, you know, he might be this prestigious academic, but if he's not popular, if his ideas are this controversial, how does he keep having the platform that he has?

Lisa:Okay. Richard Lynn was the editor of the Mankind Quarterly at this time. Lisa:So on one hand, you have a very bored, uh, very racist wealthy boy, and on the other, you have a rising American Nazi. It goes on so prominently that, uh, when this book arrives on the desk of members of Congress, Theodore, uh, Bilbo, infamous Mississippi senator known by his biographer as the arch angel of white supremacy, he praises the book, and he actually takes it to the floor of Congress and reads it while the filibuster is going on to prevent federal law against lynching being passed. Lisa:So real science as a shield for junk science, got it. That's an entirely other level of bad. I'm sure the teenagers loved it.
