From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the 19th and early 20th centuries research on race and intelligence was often used to argue that one race was superior to another, justifying poor outcomes and treatment for the "inferior race".[1] Some early opinions about the differences among races grew out of stereotypes about non-whites developed during the period of colonialism and slavery.[2][3][4][5]

Francisco Gil-White, author of Resurrecting Racism: The Modern Attack on Black People Using Phony Science and Stephen Jay Gould author of The Mismeasure of Man have suggested that some modern research has similar motives.
