What is racial "sciences"? Are you talking about sociology? Because that is not science. I'm not saying it's not a valuable line of inquiry, it's just that sociologists famously don't apply the scientific method. The resulting reproducibility problem is the outcome of that.
This is wholesale rejected by scientists. This is not to say that a fascist couldn't elevate some fringe dingbat. But it still doesn't make the dingbat a scientist.
Oh I totally agree. But if you poll Americans, you're going to find that "scientific" racism has had a large scale impact on the way Americans look at race. There are many myths that exist from these fascistic pseudoscience peddlers that still permeate over a century later
