Inside the Smithsonian's "Racial Brain Collection" & the Eugenics Project Behind It

  • The Smithsonian has formed a task force to address the massive collection of human remains held by its museums, which includes 255 human brains that were removed primarily from dead Black and Indigenous people, as well as other people of color, without the consent or knowledge of their families. The so-called racial brain collection was revealed by a Washington Post investigation. It was mostly collected in the first half of the 20th century at the behest of Ales Hrdlicka, a racist anthropologist who was trying to scientifically prove the superiority of white people. We speak with reporters Nicole Dungca and Claire Healy about the series and what they found. Dungca is also president of the Asian American Journalists Association.

      Bankrupt California is going to start hunting down children in their attempt to bring federal money into the state.
      Pelosi's nephew just signed thr bill SB1419 which will prohibit parents from having access to their children's medical records ages 12 and up starting January 1st, 2024.
      As of now county's health department sending out pamphlets directly to minor's attention with the list of medical services available to them free of charge anything ranging from genger affirming surgeries to psycotropic drugs.
      The low income family's medical expenses are covered 💯 by the Federal funding in CA. The quality of care is 👎👎👎 as only low grade doctors accept MediCal but none the less the lump sum 💰💰💰 that the State receives on behalf of the needy is what they are after. So pretty much CA uses its poor to get rich.
      And this is taking place in the State that is responsible for 20,000 forced sterilizations performed in 1930's which served as a blueprint for inhumane policies that were implemented in Germany in 1940s.
      History is about to repeat in California.

      First; this has nothing to do with "rich" people. Science has nothing to do with wealth. And, you apologizing for something your grandfather did is absurd. Also, last I checked, the "rich and powerful" are responsible for the world you live in and I'm pretty sure your world is pretty nice (as is the rest of the "free world"-which was created by "rich"/powerful/white men. The "terrible conditions" are what some groups have brought upon themselves and continue-generation after generation to perpetuate. Fact: millions of Europeans immigrants (many treated similar to the way blacks were treated in the late 1800's) plowed forward and became hard working, respectable citizens who have and continue to contribute to the betterment of society. They helped themselves. They are responsible for their rise. Others are responsible for their (constant) failure. Yes, Indians and black had it bad - but that was hundreds of years ago. There is no one systematically "holding down" any group. A society does not benefit from having poverty and crime.

      DNA testing may not be an option depending on how some of these brains were preserved and maybe contaminated beforehand. Some of the remains can be tracked down in origin by where they came from and reports of grave robberies and body desecrations in targeted communities. It's an overall nightmare though, especially since they ghouls responsible didn't bother to record names in most cases.

      Bill Gates father, one of the executive heads of the Planned Parenthood Federation comes to mind as does the founder Margret Sanger. Her placement of the earliest clinics were in primarily black neighborhoods. She and her cohort were trying to reduce/eliminate black folks bc they considered them as inferior and unintelligent. Eugenics in the first half of the 20th century was a popular openly discussed social topic amongst the population. After the public learned about the human atrocities of WW2, eugenics lost it's popularity and it's supporters (rich and powerful, respected members of society) took their work underground to avoid backlash from the people. The mission of Planned Parenthood has not changed much, other than broadening their influence to uneducated, poor people who are also unaware of what's going on. These days women celebrate the death of their child, not knowing, or maybe not caring that they are supporters of eugenics aimed at their own race.

    It's strange that they mentioned William Howard Taft and the American occupation of the Philippines without mentioning the Philippine-American War (1899-1902) which the US fought to gain that occupation. This war was very brutal and one-sided, and stories of atrocities like the murder of young children soon turned much of the American public against the war and the continued American occupation.
    Hence the push by officials like William Howard Taft to rationalize American conduct by portraying the Filipinos as primitive, like children--people that we had to "uplift and Christianize," in the words of one Senator--despite the fact that they were already Christian and had set up a democratic government. Exhibits like the 'human zoo' displaying Filipino natives at the St Louis World's Fair helped serve this purpose: by portraying the natives as primitive and inferior, the brutal conduct of the war, as well as the denial of the right to self-government, was justified.

      How do you come to the conclusion of "this nation" over a handful of sick psychopaths that still dictate their globalist agenda to ALL of us? Smithsonian, funded by the Rockefellers, has a LOT of deep, dark secrets hidden away from us, telling our TRUE HISTORY. Giant human bones, elongated skulls, artifacts from all over the world found in a cave off the Colorado River. The Vatican and the mountains of things they have hidden in their basement. Same psychopath club. It has nothing to do with "this nation" and We The People, yet everything to do with the freakshow behind the curtain. You want to go down a historic rabbit hole? Look up Tartaria.

    • @thegoddessdiana9185
      @thegoddessdiana9185 Год назад +1

      @suzanneharris8339: Perhaps not. Hrdlicka was born in Austria-Hungary, the same empire into which Hitler was born. Hrdlicka (1869-1943) was a Czech from Bohemia, and was probably Roman Catholic. The KKK did not like Roman Catholics during their early years as well as second iteration in the 1910's. They also didn't care for immigrants. He was a member of the American Eugenics Society which inspired much of Nazi racial doctrine. In fact, some German doctors visited their American counterparts in the late 1920's or early 1930's to learn more. Hrdlicka may not have had any dealings with the KKK, but I'm sure that he may have had some dealings with eugenics-minded doctors from the early days of the Third Reich. His influence might have played some part in the Nazi's use of eugenics in their own society. There's a book I read, "Hitler's American Model" which was published six or seven years ago on this topic of American and German cooperation in this field. I should re-read it.

    This is horrible... But these were small exhibits, The African tribes were the main attraction's such as the Pygmy tribes individuals like Ota Benga. Not to take away from the devastation it caused ethnic groups like the Filipinos... But to not mention the people who were considered main attraction's in these horrific shows like Sarah Baartman...seems like some type of diversion. 250 plus brains 3 were Filipinos,who were the rest why no records of those? Somewhat of a travesty here. Unfortunately this was no comparison to chattel slavery which ended just prior to this.
