Roger Pearson, anthropologist and publisher, passed away on January 4, 2023. (You may see other dates associated with his death, but they are incorrect.) He was 95 years old. I worked for Roger as webmaster for his various websites for about 25 years. While most of our communications were through email and by phone, I did have the pleasure of visiting him in person many times over the years, first at his office on 13th Street NW in Washington, and in his later years at an assisted-living facility. I stayed in contact with him up until a few days before he passed away. In this remembrance, I will concentrate less on politics and academics than on our relationship and what this outstanding man meant to me. Readers who would like to know more about his remarkable life and accomplishments will find much valuable information here.
By the time I met Roger in the mid-1990s, he had backed away from the very public presence he had maintained as both a university professor and as president of the World Anti-Communist League and publisher of politically oriented journals. At that time, he was hard at work editing his academic journals. Although no longer as much in the public eye as before, he was always extremely gracious and welcoming to strangers like myself who might come calling.
At the time of our first meeting, in the early days of the web, I had already set up and was managing a few other sites. Someone suggested I contact Roger about possibly building one or more websites for his projects. I spoke with him by phone and arranged to come by for a meeting when I was next in Washington.
On the day of that first meeting, at Roger’s office, I parked by his building and rang the buzzer at the door. A spry and smiling man of around 70 opened the door, graciously welcomed me, and escorted me past a large and impressive library to his office. He offered me a chair and we sat and talked — for hours. For all his erudition, Roger, on that day and always thereafter, was extremely easy to talk to. In addition to website matters, we talked often about certain topics:
- War (“the two world wars of the 20th century robbed Western man of his strength and even much of his intelligence”)
- Christianity (“it domesticated the Vikings”)
- The world leaders he had met: Pinochet of Chile (“impressive”), Somoza of Nicaragua (“not so much”)
- Climate change and environmental degradation (“real and troublesome problems”)
- His native Britain today (“a tragedy”)
- Previous generations (“they had much better posture”)
- Long-distance hiking (he had once crossed on foot from Burma to India with a group of mountain tribesmen during a monsoon)
We also frequently — and as time grew on, it seemed more frequently — discussed our respective families and our hopes and concerns for our children and future descendants. Roger at one point met my son, sent him a copy of his anthropology textbook, and inquired as to his welfare every time we talked from that moment on. That meant a lot.
Family was immensely important to Roger, both that of every individual and the wider family of the European peoples. One member of Roger’s family that he spoke of often was his older brother Philip, who had been killed as an RAF pilot in North Africa during the Second World War. Philip had been Roger’s idol and remained his hero for the rest of his life. He regarded his death and the deaths of four cousins and so many other Western men during that conflict as the death knell of Western civilization.
And, of course, bye and bye, we discussed that inevitable topic as well: death in general and death in particular. Roger had no fear of it and thought little of the religious and humanist conceit that individuals were intended for immortality. By the end of his life, his cohort had largely died out. He missed friends, as he missed his native Britain and his dear wife Marion, who had passed away some years earlier. While he remained actively engaged in his publishing work and with his family until the very day he died, he was ready to leave.
The accompanying photo was taken at a luncheon to which a long-time mutual friend and I treated Roger around his last birthday, in August 2022. We had a wonderful time, and on our departure, I told the restaurant staff we’d be back the next year. But I sensed, as I believe did Roger, we would not. Time was running out. A few months later, he was dead.
What did I learn from my 25-year friendship with Roger Pearson? A lot about humanity, about race and culture and history and Western decline. Most importantly, I think the thing I learned most about was something long-time AR readers understand: the importance of civility. It would not be a stretch, though it would be acutely sad, to call Dr. Roger Pearson the Last Civilized Man. He was an exemplar of intelligence, grace, good manners, and civility. It was an honor to call him friend.

RIP Mr. Pearson.
We wuz Dradians and sheet!! LOL. Any civilization built by non black Africans and blacks have to barge in uninvited like a bunch of thugs. These low IQ monkeys post pictures of the Mughal period and then connect them to a civilization millenia old which was completely unrelated LOL.
The Indus valley Civilization was built by Caucasians of the Mediterranean type, most likely looked like today’s Sardinians. Areas today known as Iran/ Persia to Turkey/ Anantolia was this agricultural zone which overflowed across their boundaries, in the West to Southern Europe and to the East into North West Indian subcontinent. They were the ones who built the Indus Valley Civilization. The rest of India was full of black Black Australoid huter gatherer tribes. With time the Indus Valley Caucasoids mixed up with the Black Australoids and it became 75% Caucasian – 25% Australoid population. As my Indian freind living in Australia observed White-Abo mixed people look remarkably similar to South Indians but if this mixed person were to again marry a White person, the offspring end up looking like North Indians/ Middle Easterners.
So the blacks did not built the Indus Valley Civilization and even the blacks involved were not genetically related to black African negroids,

Scientists reconstruct faces of Indus Valley people
“In a first, scientists have generated an accurate facial representation of the Indus Valley Civilization people by reconstructing the faces of two of the 37 individuals who were found buried at the 4,500-year-old Rakhigarhi cemetery.”
…snip…
“A multi-disciplinary team of 15 scientists and academics from six different institutes of South Korea, UK and India, applied craniofacial reconstruction (CFR) technique using computed tomography (CT) data of two of the Rakhigarhi skulls, to recreate their faces.”
…snip…
“The CFR technology generated faces of the two Rakhigarhi skulls, therefore, is a major breakthrough,” Shinde, a professor at Deccan College Post-Graduate and Research Institute, said. Going by the 3-D video representation of the faces, the two individuals appeared to
have Caucasian features with hawk-shaped and Roman noses.”

That is, even before the Nordic Aryans came to India and Persia, the originators of the Indus Valley Civilization of India were already of the Caucasian type. Indeed the Rakhigari search have found out that the Indus Valley Civilization people were about 75% Caucasoid and 25% Australoid. When they went into the interior towards South India, with the coming of the Aryans, by the time they reached South India, mixing with Australoid tribes along the way (and also Mongoloid populations moving in from the East with rice farming like Cambodian rice farmers, Tibeto Burmans etc…) meant that the population became 75% Australoid and 25% Caucasoid i.e. today’s Dravidians.
So, no, black Africans wuz not IVC nor Dravidians and sheet.
Anyways, all Indian subcontinentals both in the North and South have the ancestry of the Indus Valley people but it is only South Indians who are linguistically and culturally close to the Indus valley people. And hence they are called Dravidians but the original Indus Valley People were more Caucasoid than today’s South Indians. The Indus valley Civi culture and language was close to the Elamite civilization in Iran. Later both the Iranian Elamite and Indian Indus Valley were overwhelmed and absorbed by the Aryan civilization as the Nortdic Aryans came South from Central Asia. Thus North Indians and Iranians speak a language in the same family as many European languages. Or why ancient Vedic mythology and pre Zoroastrian Persian mythology have so much similarity with pre Christian European mythology.
Another interesting point is that in North India you have tribal people speaking a Dravidian tongue surrounded by settled people speaking an Aryan tongue, you never have the reverse, a primitive Aryan speaking people surrounded by civilized people speaking a Dravidian language.
Talking of Dravidians, this woman below is a pure Dravidian Hindu from South Indian, direct continuation of ancient Dravidian DNA.
