"Inbreeding Depression" and Biracialism

Here's the one thing you're guaranteed if you procreate with someone outside of your race. Your children will not be inbred. (Which typically cost you a few IQ points.) Geneticists generally take two approaches when discussing the advantages and disadvantages of interracial marriages bearing children. On the one hand the assumption is that you get the best of both worlds, both in regards to attractiveness (due to variety) and health. The general concensus is that a biracial child is more likely to avoid genetic diseases arising from homozygous harmful recessive genes found mainly in particular groups, such as cystic fibrosis in Europeans and sickle-cell anaeia in West Africans. On the other hand the genes at different loci in each major race have evolved to be adapted to each other, forming co-adapted gene-complexes. Interracial mating would break up these gene-complexes.

Here's an interesting article that I am currently unable to do justice, but I will share more of my opinion as I become more versed on the subject.
