“Everything that awards those special features to the ethiopian race, orginates in Mercury´s powers boiling and bubbling in the gland system of those people.

“Those blacks in africa have the nature to suck up all the light and wamth from space. They consume that. And that light and that warmth in space can not pass through the whole body, because man always is man, even when he is black.
It does not pass through the whole body, but stays on the surface of the skin, and then the skin itself turns black.” (Rudolf Steiner)

“But the people, who underdeveloped their »I«-being [their »ego«], who were exposed too much to the effects of the sun, they were like plants: they deposited under their skin too many carbon-like elements and became black. This is why the negro is black.” (Rudolf Steiner)
