White supremacist discovers his African heritage

[Dominic Connor]

Maybe we're African

Although I personally believe we all came out of Africa, that is not quite 100% proven.

There is the "multiple origins" theory that several humanoids evolved at roughly the same time (a few hundred kiloyears) in a way vaguely like having Neanderthals alongside our own ancestors.

This is particularly popular in countries like China where the idea of having evolved from black people make them feel more uncomfortable than in Europe where the left see this as proof we are all brothers and the right see it as evidence that whites are more evolved and superior to blacks.

My own (vague) understanding of biology can't support this idea since as I understand once two species have split you can't get viable offspring yet we observe that all humans seem be able to breed with all others, implying we must some from a relatively small single pool.

..but there are people who aren't regarded as mad who work at universities that aren't laughed at who believe this.

Does that make him a wigger?

I don't see why it matters either way

Not quite - see hybrids such as the liger, although they're very often sterile, so a bit of a dead-end.

"According to the latest census Leith [the town he intends to be all white] has a population of 16 including one black, Bobby Harper, who lives with his white wife, Sherrill.

Mr Harper has said he has no intention of moving".

Good for Mr. Harper.
You couldn't make this crap up.

The Soviets tried to make ape human hybrids for their army.

Fruit loops.

aren't we all descendants of African's anyway?

Sicilians are apparently....

As long as we don't descend from the Irish gypsies.
