At the time Thomas was the Chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. In an informal discussion among some of the staff, a white employee was describing the difficulty he had encountered trying to get a bank loan.

Millard and other racists ignorant of the human genome and science do not even realize that the thing they fear has already occurred tens of thousands of years ago.

This report was submitted to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who accepted the recommendation and signed Executive Order 9066.

He was silent regarding the Indian men who were living with and married to white women. The double standard operated even to issues of blood purity.

Thus testimony was an example of one of the reasons that Black Americans lobbied to end the use of the word, Negro, in official documents to describe them. “Negro” was a term used by whites to describe Blacks but rarely used by Blacks until Reconstruction.

The Turks had massacred the vast majority of their Armenian population, and treated the Greeks badly killing and them many of them from territories the Ottoman Turks had conquered. Jews fared better but were 2nd class citizens. Bristol was the American State Department’s senior official and was very “understanding” of the murders and ethnic cleansing despite the fact that President Wilson and most American politicians were very opposed to the Turkish massacres. See {620614} and {620599} . Two factors makes this quotation very significant. First, at the time the State Department was not really under the control of either the President or the Congress. It was not rare for the Department to have its own policies and implement them. This began to change in WWII and FDR exercised much more control than previous presidents since Theodore Roosevelt. The second factor is that there were many racists throughout the State Department—Bristol was only one. There was little concern for minorities’ welfare and the emphasis was on commerce. See {620600} Even in Truman’s administration, the President had massive opposition from the State Department for his policy of recognizing the State of Israel. Today, this kind of racism in the State Department is very rare, and human rights has been one of their major concerns. There were many changes in 75 years.
