Weekly Missives

A Welcome Message from C. H. Dalton

C. H. Dalton

Welcome, all, to the internet website for my new book, A Practical Guide to Racism. As a professor of ethnography at the third-most prestigious institute of higher learning in the Princeton, New Jersey area, I am uniquely qualified to publish this, the first modern guide to race and racism.

In the grand tradition of Josiah Nott’s 1854 Types of Mankind, A Practical Guide to Racism (APGTR) attempts to provide a comprehensive picture of the different races and how they interact. This volume goes one step further, however, by cataloguing the history and practice of racism and racial studies, with the hope of providing a single source for final knowledge on this entire subject.

What can you expect in APGTR? For starters, there is a chapter devoted to each of the nine races: Hispanics, Jews, Whites, Blacks, Asians, Indians (and Injuns), Arabs, Gypsies, and Merpeople. In these chapters, I offer a simple, easy to reference guide to the race, as well as a history of their oppression, and a Mythbustin’™ guide to the stereotypes about them. For example, are Swedish women really able to suck the chrome off of a trailer hitch? No, of course not, but the stereotype is rooted in their extraordinary talent for oral sex.

In addition, I provide a comprehensive glossary of racial epithets, including my own suggestions for additional slurs, based on my research. There is also an appendix on the so-called “sexual races,” like Gays and Women, and one on ancient races like Phoenicians and Doozers.

On this internet website, you will be able to find weekly missives from me, C.H. Dalton, on matters of race and racism, as well as my popular series of online lectures. Watching all of them qualifies you for six credits in my award-winning “Introduction to Ethnography” course here at the Institute for Advanced Studies (located just three miles south of the world famous Institute of Advanced Study). I also offer the course at several central New Jersey Learning Annex® facilities, along with a three-week seminar on line dancing for fun and profit.

And be sure to check out my official homepage, where you can find my official C.V., my course list (including required reading), and a collection of my unpublished historical What-If?s™. They’re fun, and educational. For example – what if the Archduke Franz Ferdinand had traveled to Summer of Love-era Haight Ashbury, instead of Sarajevo, that fateful trip? Things might have turned out a little differently, as I invite you to find out.

Well, that’s all for this little note. Look to this spot every Wednesday for a new missive from me, C.H. Dalton. Good day, and Godspeed.

A new missive is posted each Wednesday.
