| | 1 | Author: | Eugenics Record Office | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Eugenics Record Office Records
| | | | Dates: | 1670-1964 | | | | Abstract: | Eugenics was inevitably entangled in many aspects of American social and political life, and particularly in setting and supporting national policy with regard to immigration and the treatment of ethnic and racial minorities. The ERO Records reflect the eugenical fascination with identifying race-based traits and with locating clear lines of demarcation between the races in terms of behavior, intelligence, and physical characteristics. Race is a particularly clear factor in several files in the Trait Files Series I (documenting the inheritance of purportedly discrete genetic characteristics): "Jamaica anthropometry" (Box 4), "Race suicide and childlessness" (Box 7), "Twins, Negro" (Box 13), "Skin color," "Spotted skin," and "Mulattoes" (Box 26), "Finger prints - Jamaica schoolchildren" and "Woolly hair" (Box 27) and several files under the heading "Race," "Race crossing," and "Negro" (Box 61, 62, 64). The Fitter Family Studies (Series VI) displays an equal concern for racial demarcation, and include some correspondence with the Race Betterment Foundation. | | | | Call #: | Mss.Ms.Coll.77 | | | | Extent: | 330.5 Linear Feet | | | | |

| 2 | Author: | Darwin, Charles, 1809-1882 | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | An Annotated Calendar of the Letters of Charles Darwin in the Library of the American Philosophical Society
| | | | Dates: | 1799-1882 | | | | Abstract: | One of the most important natural historians in nineteenth-century Britain, Charles Darwin provided the first compelling mechanism to account for organismal evolutionary change. In at least two letters in the Darwin collection, the naturalist reflects upon the nature of race. In a letter dated 8 October [1845], Darwin questions whether there is a connection between race and susceptibility to different types of lice. In a letter dated 25 October [1859], Darwin dispels other scientists' claims that there are several species of man. | | | | Call #: | Mss.B.D25 | | | | Extent: | 2.5 Linear Feet | | | | |
