This article is mainly limited to Kant's brief discussion on race mixing at the end of this 1785 essay. He presented there the cases of the gypsies, the black Portuguese, and the Jews on St. Thomas in order to show the consequences of this practice. A contextual understanding will reveal how Kant wished to contribute to on-going discussions and how he used his source material.- Reproduced Journal of the History of Ideas RACES AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 388584 IIPA IIPA 2020-11-20 81(3), Jul, 2020: 407-427 AR123572 2020-11-20 AR
