We might as well re-read Jessica Mitford and William Mandel, too, both of them Communist propagandists. No, I won't read a book by another one of them. Mary McCarthy said this about Jessica Mitford: "Every word she writes is a lie, including 'and' and 'the'" This quote applies to every Communist propagandist, regardless of some factoids about lost limbs they bring up (cue the violins), which happen to be true. Let's concern ourselves with the savagery in today's Zimbabwe (for instance), or Congo, about which Mr Hochschild will not write, you can bet your bottom dollar, or if he will, he'll blame the white race. It's as easy to write about King Leopold as it is about Hitler, a little harder about Patrice Lumumba.

There's no such thing as "the white race", just as there is no such thing as "the black race".

Caucasians, or even specifically Aryans include Blonde, blue-eyed scandanavians, red-headed Celts, brown Iranis, Georgians, Armenians, Indians. The wider Caucasians include the darker skinned Semitics and Dravidians.
