Genetic Similarity

My leftist professor claimed that Whites can be more genetically similar to sub-Saharan Africans than to other Whites. How the fuck is that possible?

Anti-racists are so fucking retarded, it makes me wonder how they run academia. The genetic overlap between individuals from the major racial groups is an artifact of not using sufficient numbers of markers. Leftists tried to pull this stunt in 2004 and trolled the scientific community for about an year. With lots of DNA markers, there is no overlap and there is no way that a White person is more genetically similar to a nigger than another White person.
Here's a full rebuttal to this nonsense. http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pubmed&pubmedid=17339205
However, if genetic similarity is measured over many thousands of loci, the answer becomes “never” when individuals are sampled from geographically separated populations.

But this is irrelevant now. http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/319/5866/1100
A new paper just came out with 650000 markers. We're now able to distinguish between fucking ethnicities (French, Italian, etc.) with little to no overlap.

He's a liberal and therefore suffers from "white guilt."

Take the most genetically white black guy, and the most genetically black white guy and yeah I'm sure they would be fairly similar. But your prof sounds like a Franz Boas type, I'd be very skeptical about what he says.
