I think it would be fair to say that in the earliest days of the Witnesses, in the late 19th century and early 20th century, then there would have been a bias towards that view.

Please see the 'related links' below for an article that gives quotes from early Watchtower publications. But this was probably a reflection of the racial stereotypes more prevalent in society at the time.
