In this 2018 email, evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers writes to Jeffrey Epstein regarding a document titled 'EPSTEIN.docx'. Trivers vents about his professional alienation in the US and complains extensively about James Watson (JD Watson), claiming Watson blocked his career advancement at Harvard in 1972. The email concludes with Trivers offering a long-prepared paper on 'human intelligence, Africa, parasites' with the stated focus of 'Africans stupid or smart?'
