The fact that mixed northern Brazil is a corrupt shithole and white southern Brazil isn't nearly as bad shows that Aggasiz's predictions were more accurate than Gould's.

A later study showed that Gould lied about Morton subconsciously overstuffing European skulls and understuffing Bantu ones (but why would a "white supremacist" present data showing that East Asians have the largest brains? Gould doesn't claim those were overstuffed).

This debate is still going on. I read this paper last week from last year, 2015, talking about how Lewis et al, the ones who redid the study, did wrong things as well and Gould did some right things. This shit is fucking complicated. I can't wait until it's settled for good. I'll link the paper in a bit.
