[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] My only comment on Keita is that he is being OVERLY ambiguous. For example, if Negroid is not valid and he doesn't use it, how does that mesh with the current scientist that DO use it and other studies which speak of typologies like Caucasoid and negroid? If he is not going to use Negroid he should explain more fully what the typology of Negroid means and why it isn't valid. Just NOT using the term and NOT addressing the CORE issue behind WHY it isn't valid is to miss the point. If you are dispelling myths then you have to ADDRESS those myths and typologies which propose dividing people up into typological conventions like negroid and Caucasoid. If you do not address this, especially since many people STILL DO use this typology in their research, you are not dispelling anything. A word is a word and using black is no less meaningful as saying dark. What does dark mean? Using dark doesn't help explain anything and does not make the term black as a similar description of the same thing "dark skin" any less valid. [/QB][/QUOTE]
