Donald A. Swan (28 March 1935 – June 1981) was an American anthropologist and advocate for eugenics and segregation.[1]
Early life
Donald A. Swan was born on 28 March 1935.
He got a degree from Queens College. He studied economics in graduate school at Columbia University but was expelled for stealing books from the library.[2][3] He wrote a letter in appreciation to Karl Donitz, the successor to Adolf Hitler.[3]
Career
Swan was an assistant professor at the University of Southern Mississippi.[4] He was a co-founder in 1959 of the International Association for the Advancement of Ethnology and Eugenics (IAAEE), serving as treasurer and corresponding secretary, and he was involved in the Northern League.[2][5][3] He was involved in the IAAEE's attempts to overturn Brown v. Board of Education.[3] In the 1950s he contributed articles to The Truth Seeker purporting genetic differences based on early 20th century IQ studies and Nazi anthropology.[5] He made speeches using the pseudonym Thor Swenson.[5] He was a defender of the German eugenicist Hans F. K. Günther.[5]
In 1966, Swan was arrested on mail-fraud charges. During the raid on Swan's apartment in Queens, New York, the police found Nazi memorabilia, weapons and ammunition.[4] A book by George Lincoln Rockwell of the American Nazi Party was also found, as well as a photograph depicting Swan with American Nazi Party members.[6]
Death and legacy
Swan died in June 1981. After his death, Swan's papers were purchased and donated to Roger Pearson at the Institute for the Study of Man, under a Pioneer Fund grant of $59,000.[4][7]
