Based on anthropological research by Professor Ruth Benedict and Doctor Gene Weltfish of Columbia University, this educational comic argues scientifically that no master races exist. The narrative presents historical examples—including Egyptian civilization, Marco Polo's travels to China, Columbus's encounter with Native Americans, and the introduction of New World crops to Europe—to demonstrate that all human civilizations have benefited from cultural exchange across racial groups. The story counters Nazi ideology by explaining that human anatomical structures are identical regardless of race, all blood types exist across populations, and intelligence is equally distributed among all peoples. The comic concludes by celebrating Allied soldiers of many nations fighting together in World War II to defeat the myth of racial superiority, affirming that there are no master races nor any inferior ones.
