If you have read the book, you will see that he meant “race” as in the way we use it today. In fact, it’s such a scandal, that the title has been changed for more recent publication of the book (i.e. a copy printed after 1960 does not have the same title).

Ideas have consequences.

One of Darwins’ consequences is the “science” of eugenics (started in Germany and the US). Followed by Margret Sanger.

Google around for connections between racism, eugenics, darwin and margret sanger — you will find many

Darwin's book?

That one!

He was British, not American. He necessarily used 'race' in the British sense ~ BTW, that's two centuries ago ~ but you knew that, right?

Back then a 'computer' was a guy who computed numbers.
