The dark heart of race science... and why it's nonsense.

The Story of Colour tells the story of how we have come to view the world through lenses passed down to us by art, science, politics, fashion and sport, and, not least, prejudice.

Exploring the chilling connections between historical racism and contemporary hate crimes, the narrative delves into the origins of white supremacy, tracing its evolution from 19th-century race theories to the resurgence of eugenics and modern conspiracies like 'Great Replacement.' Gavin Evans highlights how these ideologies have influenced individuals, particularly young men, leading to violence. By linking mainstream beliefs with extremist views, the book sheds light on the dangerous overlap between established race science and far-right rhetoric, providing a comprehensive analysis of this pressing issue.
