How did racial characteristics evolve?
Posted by John Engelman Raceology, October 22, 2019
The least controversial way the races have evolved has been in response to climatic conditions. Skin color is determined by skin cancer and rickets. If a dark skinned race moves north the darker skinned individuals die from rickets. Consequently, the skin color becomes lighter. If a light skinned race moves south, those with the lightest skin get skin cancer. Consequently, the skin color becomes darker.
American Indians have been in North America longer than those of European ancestry, so their skin is darker. Those of European ancestry get skin cancer. European whites living in Europe are much less likely to get skin cancer, because their lighter skin is appropriate to the lesser sun light of Europe.

Agriculture and civilization selects for different characteristics than hunting and gathering. Farmers need to plan ahead to the next growing season. They need to defer gratification. No matter how hungry they get they cannot eat all of their seed corn; they cannot butcher all of their farm animals. When they make the same incomes, individuals who belong to races that have practiced agriculture the longest are more likely to save money and less likely to go into debt.
I define a civilization as a city based society where the government has an effective monopoly on the legitimate use of violence. In such a society intelligent men usually prosper and have more children who survive and reproduce than unintelligent men. Criminals are usually killed at the scene of the crime, they die in custody, or they are executed. This is why races that have practiced civilization the longest have higher IQ averages and lower crime rates than races that have been recently introduced to civilization, comparatively speaking.
For at least a century those with IQ's below 100 have tended to have more children who survived and reproduced than those with IQ's above 100. More recently, computer technology and automation have been eliminating jobs that those of below average and even average intelligence are able to learn. If the current situation continues, a declining percentage of humans will be able to do anything useful for a living.
