Racist science invented chromosomal genes for racial traits

Evidence

In the first chapter of the history that the others have compiled for me, the foundation of cannibalism has been made eminently plain in order that I may not lose sight of it. My chromosomes were supposed to have a few thicker or thinner genes representing cannibalism. In addition to the sex-linked, the scholars had now discovered the raciallinked. What a shameful science! — Frantz Fanon, Constance Farrington, Black skin, white masks, 437 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
