Jews and Boasian Anthropology
Good information below about Jewish involvement in anthropology from an anthropologist [sorry, it is a .pdf file]. This item originally appeared in American Anthropologist magazine in 1997.
We say that Jewish involvement in the field of anthropology is very significant to Western culture, as that science influenced people's attitudes about race/racial issues. Indeed, those of you who follow racial issues know that Jewish anthropologist Franz Boas was the godfather of the idea of "there are hardly any differences between the human races," which was a radical concept in those early days.
Here is that .pdf file:

Frans Boas is the reason I quit Anthropology. He and "American Anthropology" got their start in 1939 "debunking" Hiter. Boas was a Jew, who naturally had a vested interest. All alone, he killed all inquiry into race for forty years.
A required course for an Master's was "The History of Anthropology", taught by a rabid Jew. I got the skinny on the course. It was all about Frans and why he was right. Students must be prepared to affirm Frans, denounce all inquiry into race, and kiss the ass of this particular professor. No thanks.
