It seems ironic that race-research would likely not find funding for fear that the results would indicate racial differences.
It is a charged issue, to be sure.
Part of me says that if you are bright enough to discover the double helix and the blueprint of all life, then maybe you have some other interesting findings in your little bag of tricks....
Then again, maybe you are an old man and say racist things, like my grandmother does sometimes. I love her, though. And she makes a MEAN red beans and rice. racism...Yum!
