Ruth Hubbard

Ruth Hubbard

Ruth Hubbard Ph.D. was a Professor of Biology at Harvard University.

Hubbard was born in Austria and escaped Nazism as a teenager. Ruth Hubbard has criticized sociobiologists.

It is beyond comprehension, in this century which has witnessed holocausts of ethnic, racial, and religious extermination in many parts of our planet, perpetrated by peoples of widely different cultural and political affiliations and beliefs, that educated persons—scholars and popularizers alike—can come forward to argue, as though in complete innocence and ignorance of our recent history, that nothing could be more interesting and worthwhile than to sort out the “racial” or “ethnic” components of our thoroughly mongrelized species so as to ascertain the root identity of each and everyone of us. And where to look for that identity if not in our genes? [ [http://raceandgenomics.ssrc.org/Hubbard/ Race & Genes By Ruth Hubbard] ]

Ruth Hubbard is listed as a supporter of Mumia Abu-Jamal on the Educators for Mumia Abu-Jamal website. http://www.emajonline.com/
