I'm unclear who wrote the above, but it sounds like nonsense to me. It makes
as much sense to say black hair among Africans, Melanesians, etc., originated
in black-haired Nordics, Mongolians or Native Americans. More likely
blond/red haired Africans, etc. are descendants of your much more recent Europeans
who vacationed for a while on their beaches.
Exactly what environmental factors cause blond or red hair to occur in people
not normally associated with such hair color? How do you know where the
Gimaldis came from and what color skin they had 30,000 years ago?? Isn't this the
sort of question recent DNA advances may eventually clarify? You must be way
ahead of the curve.
What does economics have to do with genetics? Frankly, I think you are an
adherent to some agenda akin to Lysenkoism, long ago discredited, and are
posting this lunacy here for your own ulterior motives. There is no inheritance of
acquired characteristics. This is the false basis of communism and has done
great harm in the world over the last couple of centuries. No need to argue
further. You are all wet!
