You are not merely being "sarcastic", you are being wrong. Albinism has nothing to do with the "evolution of white people".
And yes, glitches, mutations and genetic defects are precisely what has historically provided long-term evolutionary advantages to all species. By definition, creatures of habit go extinct, and all phenotypes suited to niches die off when these niches are changed. Those that survive are the freaks, the mutants, and the "defective".
In all organisms, including humans, genetic aberrations that at first glance might make an organism weaker, led to an increase in the organism's long-term chances of survival.
Indeed, most of the animals alive now are alive because they were the least healthy, least big, and least robust animals around when the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs, arrived.
And don't you see how your "whites are defective!" joke is just the inverse of the "blacks are un-evolved!" racism hurled at blacks? The old racist idea that blacks can't survive outside of Africa because they failed to mutate, adapt and "evolve" to handle the variables and complexities of life outside Africa?
Why talk this way? There are better ways to bash white people or bash Indian people than to push bad pseudoscience. It is possible to speak about and analyze racism without dissing entire groups of people on a genetic level.
Why, when talking about real issues - racism, injustice, capitalism etc - do you instinctively go to crackpots and bigots for your material?
And once again, you and Van Sertima are WRONG about MesoAmericans being black Africans who crossed the Atlantic. This is an outdated, long-debunked theory that has not been seriously held for over 30 years. Countless genetic studies have refuted it. Van Sertima's book is now regarded as poorly sourced, poorly argued pseudoscience.
No Afrocentrist like Van Sertima has ever provided any actual confirmed evidence - archaeological, genetic or otherwise - that demonstrates that Africans created a civilization in the Americas, let alone crossed the Atlantic and landed before 1492. No one is rewriting history and deny blacks their achievements - experts would love to find this proof! - there's simply no evidence. Sertima's claims never happened. They are a fiction and a theory.
Today, premiere anthropological organizations like Current Anthropology, run entire issues which explain how wrong he was, and how negative his effect was on the real Olmec people (see https://www.unl.edu/rhames/courses/curre...ertima.pdf).
Sociologists like Gabriel Haslip-Viera wrote a point-by-point list of all his errors in "Thieves of Civilization: Afrocentric Attempts to Appropriate the Cultural Heritage of Native Americans and Latino Indo-Mestizos in America", a book published not too long ago.
And as I have showed you several days ago, we have genetic evidence showing where the MesoAmericans came from, how they got to central America, and when. They came from the North - not the Atlantic or Africa - via ice bridges leading to Asia and Siberia.
Only a massively insecure person would feel bad at Van Sertima's theory being proven wrong, rather than see it as an example of science working as intended; constantly testing hypotheses, refining ideas, and pursuing truth.
You mention Van Sertima and the Noble Committee, but the Noble Prize has been given to countless idiots and war criminals. It was given to San Suu Kyi, who presided over a genocide. It was given to HENRY KISSINGER, your own mortal enemy, who carpet bombed Asia. It was given to Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin who turned Israel into a nuclear power and bombed hundreds of innocent civilians in Lebanon. It was given to the corrupt Colombian Juan Manuel Santos, who runs tax havens for the rich etc etc.
And note that Van Sertima was on the Committee in the 1970s (he didn't win a prize, he was asked to vote for people), long before genetic testing debunked him, before his reputation fell, and before other anthropologists began testing his work. More crucially, the committee asked him to judge literature, not science, fiction, not proven fact.
So in summary: white people aren't albinos, Van Sertima is wrong about MesoAmerica, and it is possible to bash racist white people and Indian people without promoting pseudoscience or other silliness.
