Pygmies have been the victims of [[Darwinian]] [[racism]], which claimed that Pygmies are closer to [[ape]]s than to [[human being|Man]]. By denying that Pygmies, like all humans, descended from [[Noah]] and his family after they exited the [[Ark]], Darwinists were able to dehumanize Pygmies and claim they were merely animals. In one case, a Pygmy named [[Ota Benga]] was kidnapped and placed on display alongside an [[orangutan]] at the [[Bronx Zoo]] in [[1906]].<ref>[http://www.creationresearch.org/crsq/articles/30/otabenga.html "Ota Benga: The Story of the Pygmy on Display in a Zoo"], ''Creation Science Quarterly'', Volume 30, Number 3, December 1993.</ref>
