In a society in which the question of race has come to loom as largely as
it does in South Africa, there is, I believe, a positive duty on a
scientist who has made a special study of race to make known the facts and
the most highly confirmed hypotheses about race, whenever a suitable
opportunity presents itself. I should be failing, therefore, in my academic
duty, if I were to hold my peace and say nothing about race, simply because
the scientific truth about race runs counter to some or all of the
assumptions underlying or influencing the race policies of this country. In
no field is the need of guidance from qualified scientists more imperative
than in this very subject of race.
