    Excellent. The presentation is clear, concise and genuine. It takes a very rare scholar to readily admit "I don't know" when faced with an unfamiliar question.

      the word slave comes from the word Slav. hmmm i mean Caucasian people. all people have been enslaved all over the planet for thousands of years. our students are of a mind that only africans were enslaved by only Caucasians. CRT!

    These questions seem to focus on the human beings who are "dehumanized" rather than the people who do the dehumanizing. The better question might be--what's the advantage gained by dehumanizing others. And it's pretty apparent: territory.

    Btw that screenshot of the Black teenager was actually a British guy. It was the British actor John Boyega in the sci-fi film Attack The Block, based in London.
    But anyway, the point about African American youth still stands. I just thought I'd mention the film because I like it, it's really funny and bizarre.

      it's also not an exact image from that film, Attack the Block. It's been photoshopped to make the person appear more menacing, more creepy and evil. I think it woudl be good if the presenter expalined the image more... because I think it's important to note that someone tweaked the image in a very racist way...

      This was of course of course followed for these students by a historian giving a talk on the history of dehumanization of different people's by non Caucasian peoples and the story of the " white " abolitionists in the US and the hundreds of thousands of "white " men who died fighting
      In the civil war fighting slavery..

    Wow, so this is we’re the push to divided human from subhuman. The super human thinking is to live in a highly developed metropolis. Subhumans live in the jungle or forest. Yet today people are stressed out living in the city and are told to take a walk in natural surroundings. Hmmm, my question is how to live a modern day life yet live in a place we’re out primitive instincts are satisfying to our mental faculties.
    Why are so many people on pharmaceutical psychotropic drugs ?

      Yes. It's dehumanization. Yet we choose to do it. It's a potential human that'll have its own identity. And once it gets it's own identity we'll stop referring to it as "it".
      I'm pro choice, and I'm guilty of that and I got blood in my hands.

    great presentation! I'm not convinced that Smith proves his point about lynchings being a "public outing." Not denying that they were, but the absence of primary source material, such as promotional material for these lynchings, which were obviously in extent, would have made his point irrefutable.

    The speak around dehumanizing “Indians” in America is untrue. Actual first-hand accounts of autochthonous peoples in Amer’ica (1828 Webster’s) were unanimously depicted with skin color darker than that of the Europeans who encountered them.
    In fact, through the 16th to the 19th and even, sporadically, into the early 20th century, skin color of people who would be termed “black” today were called, “brunette.”… brunette firstly being directly associated with skin color and NOT hair color. A very interesting aside in this regard is the number of First Lady’s whose skin tone was directly perceived and written about as being, “brunette.”

    In re: transhistorical ;
    The world has gotten smaller - as has the minds of some ,along with their collective consciousness.
    Find one such on their own , look them in the eye.
    Perhaps one will see that particular ones collective flare oh so briefly : upon realising that it's just you and I , that look will vanish as if frightened by a ghost.
    One would think ,in a sane world that this would be the case.
