Do you believe that your race correlates to your skin tone? Because that wasn’t always the case. So how did Americans come to believe that race equals certain visible physical characteristics such as skin color and hair? And why is it that certain ethnic groups that were once considered “non-white” became reclassified as “white”? Watch the episode to find out.

Now, why aren't these videos in all classrooms?? I learned a lot and became even more curious this is exactly the education our kid's schools should add to their curriculum.
Let your kid’s history/social teacher know about these videos.
Telle Thomas : I agree 100%
telle: Too many parents in many places would complain if this was shown in K-12 school. That is why you have to go to college to learn stuff like this. And they are making it harder and harder to do that.
And the state of Texas is gaining control of the national textbook market, because of its size, and literally forcing this sort of information out.
And conseravtives are mad that this stuff is taught even in college, and try to stop it, and complain about it all the time.
It is in my google classroom. That's why I was looking at it 😂
About texas? Do a little research. It's out there.
I wish this was mandatory for all grades in all schools at all times. Black history IS american history. *Thank you so much for all the work you do to bring wisdom and knowledge to all who seek it.*
Which is why it is a crime to give a “ month” to Black history…. Segregation is WRONG!
@@philipcone357 we give a month to give the unrepresented minority the spotlight for once….white people have the whole year. A month is nothing. We’re trying to give equal exposure not segregation 🤦♀️
You got that right BLACK HISTORY IS AMERICAN HISTORY. WITH OUT US, IS NO AMERICA. GOD BLESS YOU GIRL, STAY STRONG STAY GOLD.
Black history start before America.
Dr. you know what should mandatory in school? researching one's ancestry and you will see who are the indigenous American.
As a history teacher with a masters degree in civil rights, this is a must see!! Definitely going to show this to my students. Thank you!!!
I weep for America if "bonified" History teachers accept the false premises of a video like this that promote racism and hatred for America. Content of Character has nothing to do with Race and that's what your civil rights degree should have taught you. Today's Academia is destroying the Civil Rights Movement that Dr King championed.
Finally, a cross-section of cultural history detailing slavery in the west, grounded by factual data and empirical evidence. Beautifully presented and very informative. Thank you Danielle!
There is very little factual data and empirical evidence and its spun into a political narrative. What's informative is how it promotes racism while acting like its against racism.
@@psychicbloodbrother That’s your takeaway. What do you believe the facts are?
@@connshawnery6489 Facts are not about belief that's religion. Nice try.
@@psychicbloodbrother You still couldn’t answer the question. If this information isn’t factual when there is detailed analysis and research illustrating it, then what in your opinion, are the facts? While you’re at it, you can reveal your sources as well. Prove you have something more between your ears than empty troll comments.
Well done. This is important for Americans especially to know but rarely discussed well.
Hebrews/ Jews are not white. You wouldnt call someone from the middle east white, would you.
John Martin Ashkenazi Jews are white according to their DNA. So it doesn’t matter what you believe because science says otherwise.
@@darwinhenriquez5371 thats actually false, science even recognized that ashkenazi jews are not white
John Martin They are part part European with middle eastern origins. 🤷🏻♂️ They look white. They are white
@@darwinhenriquez5371 so if someone in south america looks white, are they white
This kind of work is what makes youtube invaluable. Thank you to the creators of such content!
And they still get paid really bad :/
100th like 🙌🏿
Agreed 💯
Race is 100% real. It is a mixture of culture and genetics. White black and Asian are just giant groups that have many sun races in them. Such as Caucasian. German, French, Italian and even North Africans.
@@AT-wj5sw um, why do people think humans originated outside of Africa? I mean seriously, humans didn't originate outside of
Africa. I'm sick of hearing this rubbish about people's ethnic nationalist beliefs of humans originating outside of Africa.
I'm so thankful I stumbled upon your videos! I am an aspiring history teacher (degree and certificate in hand but looking to go abroad first) and can't wait to use this in my future classroom. I think these videos act as a great launching point for discussion.
@@JermarWilliamsonnice Chat CGPT researxh cut and paste
I have watched a few of your informative videos, and they have me wanting to finish the book "Lies my Teacher Told me". I am also so glad many of my primary school history/social studies teachers pulled information from college text books and taught the controversy of history in class (even if it was not part of test).
I've read the two that was put out? Great 📚 books!

OMG yes. She may be the single BEST presenter i've ever seen.
When I was in college I took a few classes on native American history. I found it very interesting to learn how the official definition of race (and the perceived amount of a mixed race person's "whiteness") was changed to essentially change the definition of if you were "Indian" enough to be considered part of the tribe (or if your children were) and if you were "white" enough to be legally able to look after your own affairs and own your own land. In some instances in history, if you were mixed you were no longer counted as a tribal member by the US government. In other instances, the government policies actively encouraged mixed race marriages because mixed children and grandchildren were considered "white enough" (at least 25%) to have more property rights than their "full-blooded" native parents and grandparents. One of my professors called this "attempted genocide by redefinition."
Does your professor has publications on this matter? Or if you have sources on your syllabus that you could share, I would like to read them. Thanks
Do some reading on the One Drop Rule and what political party promoted and enforced it.
It all depends in who has made wrote, the tale or Story.
"Attempted" is part of the definition of the word genocide, so another word for an attempted genocide is just "genocide"
As an Indian( from real India), this was very enlightening. We read about the French and American revolution too at school, so that helped. I was very confused what to fill during my graduate school admission forms, as being brown and being Asian was never an option. Also, the authorities didn't believe me at first, because of my fairer complexion( common in Northern, Western and N.Eastern India). Being racially jeered at was not a pleasant experience, but I hope we grow to respect each other as a universal community, Vasudhaiva kutumbakam( the world is one family).
The world is not one family. Who deforested the Amazon? Who polluted lakes and rivers with chemicals? Who spilled billions of gallons of crude oil into the oceans? Who destroyed the coral reefs? Who overfished the seas? There is only one primary race responsible for the destruction this Earth has seen over the last 1,000 years. They wreaked havoc on your country too.
History affects statisrics to the point of having to give irrelevant information to the state administration so that they can categorise you somewhere for whatever historical reason.
Some info may be useful for some policies on equal rights, but some other info may be used just to discriminate you better.
So why have your people not pushed for the identity as hindu? What would be a reason they consider native Americans as Indians as well?
@@jennaywilliams7664lol hindus are people following hindiusm,
@@footballreels9350 I meant as Hindustan. That's what India was called originally.
Great video! I am using it in my Multicultural education class to help my students get a better understanding of "race" . Thank you!

Multiculturalism is a weapon of mass destruction. All cultures are not Equal. The melting pot is far superior to multiculturalism. Melting pot unites, Multiculturalism divides.
What's sad is that she has to explain this stuff at all in 2018. Why do these archaic ideals sill thrive in 2018?
Because people won't stop teaching the nonsense to their kids, primarily.
lol, humans be humans.....our brains love categories. Race is just one example of that...
...and tribalism...
When society is based on a lie, a false premise - it takes a long long time to fix it... We're not even close to fixing it yet. But I think the trend towards truth has well begun.
Hear, hear!
I don't want to make this a long comment, however, I feel it
needs to be said. Last year in January, my sister and I visited Charleston, SC.
We toured several historic houses, the old shipping house, and the slave
market. I learned SO much on that trip about enslaved persons I did not know.
What struck me to the heart was the horrible systematic (not systemic)
institution of the enslaved person that developed in the south even after the Act
Prohibiting Importation of Slaves of 1807 prohibited the importation of
enslaved people. With already a self-sustaining population of over 4m enslaved
people, the south agreed to the law knowing it gives rise to a very profitable
and legal domestic trade. They knew that the number of enslaved people would
produce more enslaved kids. In many ways, this was a huge advantage and shift in
how enslaved people were used. First, newly enslaved people needed training,
conditioning to mold them into their new oppressed role. People born into slavery
were conditioned from the start to accept their subservient roles. Think about
this for a minute. If a young child's parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles
have been in this role for decades, then, of course, you will more easily accept
it, too. After all, what else would make you think your life would be any
different? This process squeezed the thought of freedom that came with newly
enslaved people; making them more obedient and productive. And speaking of more
productive, the second reason the south was willing to give up the importation
of newly enslaved people was that established enslaved people could be trained
with special skills that made them more marketable. Yes, as in selling for a
profit. Generations of enslaved people could be trained to be great cooks,
carpenters, domestic help. A highly skilled cook who taught their enslaved
children special cooking techniques was a highly profitable commodity and bring
a nice price at the slave market. This practice was fueled in the early-to-mid
1800s as the country pushed west and the demand for skilled labor rose. Under
the radar smuggling continued, of course. However, the systematic oppression of
an entire human race over decades, the crushing of a people’s soul, and desire
to live free was as regulated by law as it was by greedy whites. For example,
George Washington wanted to free his enslaved people when he died, but he could
not do that by law. Because several of them were owned by his wife and her
children inherited them as property, he was not allowed to grant freedom
without splitting up enslaved family members. All-in-all, this is all kinds of
messed up. Think of it, it is the determined systematic and regulated killing
of the human spirit. Beyond cruel and NOT mentioned in any history book I ever
read in school. Teach THAT!
Wow. This breakers my heart so much. How can people can do such thing to another human. And at the same time claim “all men are equal”. Those people were just as evil as Hitler yet not one talks of them like that. They’re saying the media is dividing black and white, no no their
ancestors did that in the beginning and their legacy carries on to this day in a different way.
Sis, I'm glad you had to find out that way because at least now you know how it came to be. It's not taught in schools because it would make kids more rebellious than they already are. Anyways, the slave game is still played. It's just known as paid employment now.
You're right, only it wasn't decades...it was 4 centuries. People should think about that and weep, uncontrollably! Not to demonize Europeans, because they weren't all slaveowners and slavery didn't start with them, but it is an indictment of the wickedness of humanity, and as far as I'm concerned, demonstrates the need for a savior.
It’s a good thing that there is a higher power and humans don’t live for long
Did you also read how these slaves knew they were free, but they choose to live like slaves for fear? Its the mentality. Those who choose to not live like slaves made the difference because they were no longer slaves to fear.
Thank you for a very well presented history! I am doing a lot of research and appreciate the information and the way you present that info!!
Exceptionally well researched, brilliantly presented, refreshingly new perspective of an old story. You ,young lady are doing precisely what God has put you here to do which is to inform and educate. Well done and Bravo!
Just shared your playlist on my FB. I am trying to educate myself and my family on Black history. Thank you so much for these videos!
Just so you know, this video confuses cultural and sociological notions of race with biology suggesting that the former are the basis for the latter.
Jessica Smudrick: It isn’t black history. This is YOUR history too and history period. History doesn’t take place in a bubble.
There’s no “black history.” Black is a brand and/or nom de guerre used to dehumanize people based on their phenotype descriptions. Actually, black and white are legal statuses. Find the terms in legal dictionaries for further exploration. Moorish history and/or human history is what you’re referring to.
Amerikan Racism is embedded in its White (new)COLONIAL Priviliged, Class-Perceptions, biases. Prejudices that has been historically INSTITUTED IN U,S, SYSTEMS-POLICIES-LAWS-INSTITUTIONS & CULTURES of WHITE RULE/CONTROL SUPREMACY over HUMYNITY'S Global COMMUNITY 🗿
The 3 volume series by Theodore Allen, "The Invention of the White Race" breaks down how race developed in America.
First, as the video states, there was no concept of race. People were known
as from the place they came. Englishman, Mexican, etc. Race was invented in America in the 1700s when this country was made a "white" country. Meaning that the rich aristocracy would class collaborate with the peasent European immigrants. This would create white privilege, because anyone who wasn't "white" was second class and disenfranchised by default.
I am glad to be part of my race. That is the human race. We really must move beyond our history of poor treatment of people because of their ethnicity. I think that discussions such as this one are important so that we do not forget the errors of our ancestors. Nice video
John Huff human ain’t a race old man

Adeline Okoboi Do we?
I thoroughly enjoyed your video. I was really enlightened. May I ask if you would have some of the words you use in your videos have a definition shown. It would definitely help in absorbing and getting a clear understanding of everything you discuss.
Truly SOLID WORK on these videos. Good stuff!!
I truly wish some "well intentioned" celebrities would promote such material instead of just appealing to the immediacy of human impulses & desires.
I love how you said, "Supposedly don't notice." Our brains are hard-wired to notice gender and skin tone; it's a survival mechanism left over from more primitive times. It's what you DO with that information that makes you a racist, or not. We can't help but notice, but we CAN control our reactions.
This also supports what I was taught in college - race is purely a social construct with no genetic backing whatsoever.
Hmm
I agree there isn't any biological difference Dark skinned people and lighter skinned people. But there has been experiments with children. Put one dark skinned child and one lighter skinned child together they won't notice skin colour until they are told. Not liking someone with a different skin colour to yours it's taught it's not built in prejudice is taught to children by parents and peers.
@@johnricardo5935 Not true. Cooperation must be established first for them to see past color.
@@-PURPLE-HEAD what about very young children they don't see shades of skin.
@@johnricardo5935 Where'd you get that from?
I've watched several of your videos. You have an amazing ability to articulate facts in an efficient and easy to understand way, prioritizing to most important information for the video duration. Wow. And you are clearly well read and know your facts. In my humble opinion, if you want to elevate your already amazing videos to the next level, rely less on quotes from trusted authorities and present your own hypothesis for consideration. I want to know what you think, your best guess. I want you to reply less on restating facts, some of which are quoted by many others, and add more of your intuition and ideas. Anybody can state history, what will set you apart is bringing "you" to the conversation, giving me something to think about. If I agree, I will watch more. If I disagree, I will watch even more because you hit an emotional cord and I will be unable to help myself from finding out what you will say next. People want to be right. They can either be right about agreeing with you or right about not agreeing with you. Either way they will watch you more than those who just state facts and data over and over.
This is more of a scholarly lecture series rather than an opinion series.
The history she's imparting is not opinion or idiosyncratic postulations. She's stating facts with dates and locations.
LaShanya, excellent observation!
@@DictumMeumPactum Not 100% accurate, she is forwarding many lies of omission, trying to make slavery in the United States appear uniquely different from slavery anywhere else. Jefferson's quotes are lies of omission, because she omits the context and adds commentary.
@@brady3474 then fill in the gaps yourself instead of pointing fingers at others like a little child who was left without candy share. Vague claims about context and omission do not make your claims valid by any means. Thus, elaborate if you wanna be heard!
Can a class on this be mandatory in every school in America? It really needs it right now!
She had some good info in the video, but a lot of it is very one sided to present her case that somehow white ppl started racism through slavery. But she never addresses how, Black Muslim Slave ships used to scour the sea shores looking for white slaves. In particular, white women & children to be used as sex slaves in North Africa. There were MORE white slaves in Africa, before Europeans ever stepped foot in Africa. And more white slaves, than, Black African slaves in America. At the time of the Civil War, there were 4 million. Africa had ten times that amount.
It's called the critical race theory and its actually being studies in colleges rn
@@earlofmar7987 where is the records of history of that cuz I've literally never heard of any recorded enslavement based just on race alone until British colonies enslaved west Africans...
@@indiavazquez9169 I just listen to ppl much smarter than me. Thomas Sowell for one, talks about White Slavery in North Africa. It's a known fact that Rome had black Emperor's and black commanding officers with black troops. DNA, in Native Indians, shows they must have visited here back in the early 440's. AD. Then they invaded what we call England today in 820 A.D. Black DNA runs all thru that area. Scotland had a black King in 920 A.D. Shakespeare even wrote a play about him, "Othello". Also, fact is Muslim Slave Ships. They kidnapped thousands of Scot's & Irish. Anybody standing or living near a sea shore, they'd kidnap them. We had problems with the Barbary Pirates in the 1800's. They'd kidnap our sailors & demand ransom. America was too pour at that point and the Vatican paid the ransom.

Me. I’m wondering why we continue to call the two races the media loves to oppose “whites” and “blacks” the names of colors. Why can’t we get rid of calling people the names of colors. We don’t call Asians yellow and we don’t call Native Americans red
@@emilydowepa-c8975 I agree. But race has been one of the biggest conditioning that civilization has been under. How can people look beyond those labels especially when humans have the natural tendency to want to fit in and belong to something?
I’m biracial my mother is Chinese my father is American with German Jewish ancestry . Today you have family are interracial relationships around the world.
This was illuminating! As an #Iranian, I was always confused about what it all means. When I joined my grad school in the US, I was told to check the "white" in the forms. Then, I was attacked on the street with racial epithets! Now, that makes sense! I mean it absolutely doesn't! But, now at least I feel validated in thinking that it doesn't make sense! Damn enlightenment era!
Iranians' place in the racial hierarchy created by those people is complicated. On the one hand, Iranians speak an Indo-European, Aryan language, which makes them like Europeans (although in linguistic terms no European language is actually Aryan, but that seems to have escaped a lot of Europeans' notice). On the other, European history is often considered to have begun with ancient Greeks, and the ancient Persians were the habitual enemies of the ancient Greeks and Romans, and so were always portrayed by classical historians as wicked, despotic, and decadent Orientals in contrast to the virtuous and uncorrupted Greeks and Romans. But then Christianity came along and picked up the Jewish scriptures, in which the monotheistic Persians are portrayed as virtuous and enlightened rulers in contrast to the wicked, decadent, and polytheistic Babylonians. So Europeans have never known exactly what to make of Iran and its history.
But today the religious divide between Muslims and Christians, as well as the unfortunate enmity following the Iranian Revolution, is probably what drives most Americans' prejudice against Iranians.
It's weird. If you wore hijab on the street here, people may have gone after you out of religious bigotry. ☹️

@Daniel E. The concept is not a scientific one. However, yes. Historically, we are considered white. In US though, the concept is more political. I have noticed that every newspaper photoshops Iranians to look darker. photograph.

Farsi was the language of Illuminati in Europe for centuries. In Europe, The greater Iran was a huge part of "white" identity; as you can see in Niche's Thus spokr Zarathustra. Or, even Cyrus the great's influence on Thomas Jefferson.
The association of white culture and white British complexion happened after WW1; you can see it blooming in The Waste Land. The idea remains confined mainly to US and UK. Although, the idea has spread since then but not nearly as much as the way it is viewed in the US.
Also, there was no way for him to know I am from Iran. It was after midnight, and I was walking home from my lab. With my hair flying around like a banshee, I half expected him to run away in fear! 🤣
Looking back, I am quite thankful that he didn't physically attack me! I was too naive back then! It was heart-rending to hear all the international PhD students that joined the program in the smae year experienced similar incidents, around the same time, including a Greek a friend of mine.

Awesome video! I participated in running a workshop at the Society of General Internal Medicine conference in DC this past spring where we discussed a lot of what you explored in this video, including scientific racism, and linked it to the use of "race" in medical literature and the fallacy of "race" as a biologic construct. We broke down the problem of painting an entire category of people with a broad brush and how it has effectively led to "race-based medicine" or, perhaps more accurately, differences in recommendations with respect to diagnosis, prognosis, and management of various medical conditions (cardiovascular risk, kidney disease, syphilis [Tuskegee], pulmonary function, heart failure, etc.). I'd love to see a video on the use of race in medicine in the USA. Thanks again for a great video!

Also, I recently read Nell Painter's "The History of White People" and was honestly blown away by how absurd some of the early in/out group designations were (as opposed to the completely sane and rational ones we use now??) and how the negative 'othering' of those from out groups has never changed.

You should do a video on the Spanish Colonial race paintings called Casta Paintings. It was like a Spanish Colonial way of defining race similar to the self-identification forms you get it beginning of a job application. There is a beautiful example at the Denver Art Museum, and a number in Mexico.
So, what the hell did I learn in school all those years?
Jon Bush i have no idea probably the same as me
You learn not a poopie doo thing just like the rest of us. 🤦♀️🤔
I learned a lot of this in school... My history teacher basically said "screw the text book" first week of school. He taught what we should know.
@@punkdork1993 well you had a great teacher
Sorry bro, we were all screwed up.
Thank you for the information, i love an informative Explanation of subjects.
Speaking geek is my language!
I love videos like this. It goes to show we as people regardless of “race” need to think for ourselves and develop our minds. Let other people tell it and/or think for you they can/will lead you astray into nonsense.
This is why I LOVE PBS!!!
Great video, once again.

😂😂😂oh snapppp
This time you're speaking slow enough to digest what you say. In a number of your other videos I've had to give up due to your speed of speaking and the quick edits from one phrase/sentence to the next. Thanks for the good information as always. This time I was able to get it.
Wow, the school system really has done a disservice by not sharing such information. I would of loved to learn this on black history month or any day of the year, for that matter back when I was in school.
Excellent video! I also enjoyed reading and teaching "White by Law" by Ian Haney-Lopez to my students. It goes over many of the points you talk about but it looks closely at the legal cases that served to construct whiteness in the United States as a legal and social category.
Also if you look at the evolution of the race question on the U.S. Census you can see changing attitudes (often very ridiculous ones) throughout our history. One of the most ridiculous: The U.S. once included Hindu as a race. Like somehow the government put out a whole census and didn't catch the fact that Hindu is a religious designation or just didn't care.
To be fair, the word "Hindu" was given to people who lived on the east of the river Indus by ancient invaders. The word doesn't have any significance in "Hindu scripture" because they were followers of Sanatan Dharma. As per this nomenclature and ancient understanding of race, Hindu is a race. There is an idea that you can't "convert" and become a Hindu because you have to be born a Hindu. It makes sense because of the relationship of the term and geography.
Your critique is accurate as well because I don't think the US census included Hindu in their forms because of their knowledge of ancient India. It was probably because of ignorance.
Exactly, as a foreigner, when you see this question in your visa application you are perplexed. Nobody cares about race anywhere else. SO, I didn't know how to answer because I felt that several categories applyied to me, and the funny thing was that the migration official answered the question and he decided that I was white, and that was the end of it. Whatever!
Prolly jus didn't care

Hinduism seems about as legit as skin color (when it comes to grouping people). Two randomly chosen people of the same religion will likely have more in common than two of a similar same skin color. But i agree, Hinduism is not what we consider a “race”. They were probably just ignorant. I’m just saying that race always gets way more attention than it needs when it comes to grouping people.
In fact Hindu meant a geographical identity until the British came and tried to understand what is the religion and got confused of 1000s belief system , so simply named it Hindu religion ....or Hinduism now...
Long before European came Greeks called indos, Arabs called hind , Chinese called the land as xhinjsu..it's was mentioned to be land from sindu (indus) river till the big ocean (Hindu sagara or Indian ocean)
Just beautiful! Perfectly said and what a beautiful person! You can just see how much she cares! I wish this was in classrooms!!
First- I did learn about these things in school, but I’ll say I learned about them most in depth in college. But thinking about it, in elementary school you have social studies and not just history, so you learn geography and a little bit of social sciences in addition to some history. So the history isn’t that in depth, but you’re also 10yo or younger in elementary school. In middle school you do social studies also which I know they start learning about ancient cultures and world religions, etc and then in 8th grade you take American history. I don’t know what you guys took, but in high school i had 3 years of world history, one year of government and one year of economics. In college, I took African American literature, and that is where I learned a ton of American history because you have to understand the history before you can understand how it relates to the writing. So really, when I see people talking at what they didn’t learn in school, I am usually surprised, but when you look at it, if you took classes like I did, you really don’t get much time literally learning American history. Makes sense. It bothers me so much when people say they didn’t learn anything useful in school- what are the odds that for 13 years literally all of your teachers did nothing and wasted your time... and the other 30 kids in the class, too... and their own... all i can think of is Jake Paul’s stupid ass diss track to teachers when I see people saying that stuff online.
Love how you make these concepts interesting and understandable! You are a good teacher! One negative aspect of race that I see, is people using it to justify bad behavior; as if they dont have a choice, its what they are destined to be doing (gang membership comes to mind). Or worse yet, as if its some right they are entitled to (the KKK comes to mind).
One thing I fail to understand, is how being of Hispanic origin, got to be its own category (ethnicity rather than race). Its all very confusing.
I think the fact that we come in so many colors is kinda awesome, and quite beautiful. Lumping people into categories is kinda useless when each person is unique.
Hmm
As I understand it Hispanics were classified as white for a while by the census bureau, then separated to their own category to limit immigration, then switched back to white in one of the world wars in order to increase the labor force. After that I lost track because it's all so damn arbitrary.

I can’t believe she didn’t mention the “one drop rule.” Basically it was a belief in the US during the late 18th and early 19th centuries where if ANY part of your ancestry was of African descent, you were considered black. This was justified to keep people enslaved. Wish she would have mentioned that...
I clearly remember that. It seemed odd to me that something like a drop of blood could determine your "race", and I didn't understand the point in bringing that up. Seemed so shallow and irrelevant.
Why would she mention that, she said if your mother was a slave you were slave, even if it was rape by the slave master. But that's more than a drop of Black blood, which means you're still Black in the United States.
@Joel Alex 😂 yep
It the same for Natives. 1 drop of anything else and you are not considered native.... stupid if you ask me.
@Joel Alex When that rule was thought up almost nothing was known about human evolution, and the idea that all humans have common ancestors in Africa would have been scoffed at by most Europeans.
Great points of discussion. Grateful for this video, one more important part of an often complicated topic.
I just found this channel today and its super super awesome keep making videos like this plz
I like the original definition of race as kinship-derived because it seems more accurate. I am of European, African and Native American descent. What race am I? The human race.
You don’t have to fit a box. You are you!
My mother is half Italian half Portuguese and my father is half native half black. Some ppl say that if i have one drop of black im black but that means i would have to deny my whole heritage because of that... I am mixed race and it’s ok to be the way I am. I don’t have to fit any box. :-)
The world is becoming more and more mixed and that’s a good thing!
That will make you TriRacial.
Then they'll call us racist for even making that distinction.

@@maggiebastolla5430 "Heaven Help Us". Classic 😂
Daniel: I mean, yes, color and shape are passed down genetically. Everybody knows that. Where it gets dumb is trying to correlate color and shape to unrelated things like intelligence, temperament, sex drive and etc. As if the gene that dictated skin tone also dictated personality. It doesn't. Genes are simple things that each only dictate a particlar thing. They can not dicate a multitude of things, in the way that some racists think they can.
@@milascave2 Yep 😎
@@milascave2"As if the gene that dictated skin tone also dictated personality."
Let's say you take an animal...idk a lion. So you take the entire population of that animal and split it into two different groups. You put one group in an environment where being small and dark is an advantage and you put the other in an environment where being big and bright is an advantage. Then you wait 3000 years and I go get one of the lions and tell you "wow this animal is small". If I asked you to guess if the animal was bright or dark...you would probably have a good idea even if the genes that were responsible for size had absolutely nothing to do with the genes that were responsible for brightness.
Basically one difference in the environment can lead to multiple genes being affected. So one trait might be indicative of other differences even if it itself doesn't impact those traits.
"Genes are simple things that each only dictate a particlar thing. They can not dicate a multitude of things, in the way that some racists think they can."
No...genes don't just influence one thing. At least not one thing in the way you mean." Mendel also observed that pea plants with colorless seed coats always had white flowers and no pigmentation on their axils. In other words, in Mendel's pea plants, seed coat color was always associated with specific flower and axil colors. Today, we know that Mendel's observations were the result of pleiotropy, or the phenomenon in which a single gene contributes to multiple phenotypic traits."

Great episode! You could have mentioned the impact of Charles Darwin teaching. Great job, very informative.
Thank you for this. Very informative and enlightening
The concept of race really enrages me, I come from a country where assuming a racial identity is not a thing, mostly because of colorism and aftereffects of colonialism, but racism is not a thing here like in the US I've never had to think about assuming a racial identity until I involved myself in their culture through the internet, never thought myself as Black, my skin is brown, black, dark whatever you wanna call for description purposes, but not to label me and out me into a neat little chart that describes people that supposedly fit with me inside that lable but that we honestly have little to nothing in common. It enrages me more when said people try to make me into a racist ignorant individual who's ashamed of their African descent! I'm honestly frustrated with this whole situation in 2020 it seems as if we all collectively decided to start a war against each other and engage in toxic behaviors that I fear might inspire a new wave of race wars. And in my opinion is totally unnecessary, you can be proud of your heritage and try to make so that people stop thinking negatively of it without partaking in the racial system, a thing that was created to harm your ancestry nonetheless and that you so stubbornly seek to perpetuate. 🤦🏽♀️
Ja i agree. The whole concept of race confuses me, and im sure a lot more of my generation as well. I think the idea of different races will go away in a few more generations (if humans can even live that long)

I’m sorry this has been your experience when involving yourself in convos about US culture. I am a black woman from the US. I have family members who have immigrated to the US and say the same thing, they never have dealt with racial issues until moving here. US is a “pick a side” type of place which is probably why people pressure you into choosing a racial identity. Unfortunately, many US Americans have little education or knowledge of the history and politics of other countries. Because of that many of us assume that all countries who have endured the atlantic slave trade or have been colonized have the same experience and cultural shaping, although this is wrong. I think you should not allow yourself to be enraged but instead try to educate people about the cultural differences amongst the African diaspora and let those who don’t listen remain ignorant 🙂
Beautifully said.
Eugenics. This was what was used to establish the judicial, educational, religious, financial and medical systems we have today. When these systems were designed eugenics was the platform to ensure Africans stayed as chattel. Eugenics and Darwinism were both used.
Truth Finder: You are obviously and totally unfamiliar with both Eugenics and Darwinism and their role in judging Africans. There is no way one can discuss subjects with half-educated people.
@@ianshaw482 Such a inappropriate and condescending response. Eugenics and Darwinism still plays a big role in the society we live in a subtle and covert way

Great video! Race is definitely a western social construct created to keep those who were never in power out of power or enslaved. Biologically/genetically or even socially, we should never be generalizing assuming culture by skin colour either, as there are vastly different "races" within such groupings (African American, Ethiopian, Sudanese etc) or (Anglo-Saxon, Swedish, Turkish, Slavic etc); all vastly different-looking people, cultures, histories and languages. Keep these videos coming!!!
How is something a social construct when you can see it? We have very different outward differences like skin color and facial structure and features. So what makes you think these differences end on the inside?
@@cody4916 Skin color, hair texture, nose shape, etc. are all phenotypical differences which all just a matter of heritage and mixing, but beyond that there is no scientific evidence that we are biologically different. In fact, humans are 99.9% genetically similar, making us one of the most homogenous species on the planet. There is but one race: the human race.
Great video, so much knowledge and history squeezed into 10 minutes

Great question. That's the money question right there.
Just came across your channel. A truly excellent exposition that I will recommend to others. It is interesting to see how even serious scientists could be led astray by the thought disorder of Racist belief. One such was Von Linnaeus who developed the Taxonomy of Flora and Fauna, which you referred to in your presentation. His attempt to formalize a similar categorization for humans was farcical and a pure work of fantasy yet found favour and influence in Western scientific circles. In terms of philosophy you correctly cited Kant but Voltaire the so called champion of freedom was far worse. He was a devout racist almost without peer yet his famous work 'Candide' is considered to be the standard bearer for liberty and individual rights to this day. Thank you for producing such an erudite and well researched presentation.
This is a helpful introduction to a discussion about the evolution of race in America and Europe. Understanding change over time and causation are so important to the historical process! Especially because history is not simply a march toward progress, bad ideas (such as racial inequality) can be introduced to society resulting in unnecessary human suffering if we aren’t careful.
That said, as far as looking at this as an educational tool from a historical perspective, I think it's important to clarify the terms capitalism and Enlightenment because I think they are misused in this context. For example, the forced labor system of the Spanish (whether it be the encomienda or later repartimiento), the Portuguese system in Brazil, or the British and then US system of slavery in North America, are not representative of a “capitalist" economic system. Those were involuntary, forced labor systems and Involuntary, forced exchanges are directly at odds with the 18th century idea of capitalism (at least as introduced by Adam Smith, which is entirely based on the idea of voluntary exchanges). Slavery and capitalism (in its purest sense and as defined in the 18th century), are actually opposing ideas. Pro-capitalist arguments were behind some of the economic reasons for anti-slavery movements of the time. Exploitation through forced labor systems for the sole purpose of profit has been horrifyingly evident in far too many places in world history - yet that does not make all of the economies of the places that practiced it "capitalist." (I clarify that for students studying the introduction of capitalism as a theory and because the explanation of causation in this video is problematic). Also, the Enlightenment as movement is very broad so this is tough to address in a short time, but it is important to note that this movement is widely recognized as one that embraced new ideas about human value and potential that were directly responsible for many of the arguments that challenged arbitrary hierarchy (which contributed to large scale movements against slavery and the first organized feminist movement). While it is true that many of those who embraced it's ideals were hypocritical and mindblowingly shortsighted in their views about human equality (see Rousseau vs. Mary Wollstonecraft for example, or the Jefferson example she presents is a great one) but to argue that the movement as a whole was responsible for this organization/classification movement (the basis of Social Darwinism), I think is a mistake in historical causation. Bottom line, this is a great start to discovery. But I recommend students look into each of these things with greater depth than this.

Elaborate on "European discovery" - I don't remember them discovering anything? Exploration, yes.
Did you notice the Jesuit twist, inventing the Kazhar Hebrew caste and linking it to the whiteness group.!
This is a narrow minded half truth.
Did you know the ashanti tribe of Africa actually kidnapped and enslaved white Europeans decades before the same African tribe began selling black people to the Europeans as slaves. And contrary to her statement that many indentured servants were freed after a few years and became land owners. The truth is indentured servants were treated worse simple because they were not owned so the master had little regard for their wellbeing. While slaves were provided food and shelter. Indentured servants were made to pay for these necessities there by extending their length of servitude
It would take many indentured servants generations to become free. But the truth doesn't fit the false narratives they want you to believe. But I swear it's all true and little research shall enlighten you and the truth will finally set us all free at last
@@boatman352 Indentured vs enslaved, a battle of who had it worst. The person denied freedom vs the one who gained freedom but no independence. A history that once again repeated itself in a so called freed people, in the system of sharecropping .

I am a women in my sixties and I don't recall when, where and how and who weighed in the term Black being changed to African American. I also do not recall any of us being asked what we thought or how we (other Black people) could have a chance to elaborate on it. All I know is all of a sudden it was on applications, the Census, etc. Look, I don't denounce that that I am a descendent of Africa and proud of that fact but being Black in America also means that I am a descendent from other people, one example of many is Native American, so why just pick one name whom I am associated with, hence, African American, exactly why Black for me covers the whole gambit. I would also like to mention, the way that I see it, doesn't race apply to being from the human race?
There is only one race the human race
I hear you. My 23andme revealed I have African, European, Asian, and Native American ancestry, but I’m called black. Not mixed, nothing that acknowledges my other DNA because it’s not even known how I got the DNA.
I am what the woke community calls " pre civil war mullato, meaning I have mixed heritage that happened prior to the civil war. My phenotype is "mixed" because my ancestry is 10+ generations of mixed people marrying mixed people because of race laws. So because my mixing happened long ago I'm not mixed by their standards....but not black enough because of my appearance, the irony.
I'm trying to figure out how to answer the census question for race. I don't know what all countries my ancestors were from. And there is no option to just put "human."

Yes! I am from Malaysia and to be part of the Malay race, either you are born into it or you can apply to be one! To apply, you would have to prove that you adhere to the Malay culture. So race is not only something you are born into but a culture you choose to practice.
Semitic people (Jews and Arabs) do something similar. Race is like family. The biological members and the adopted members (people who assimilate and immerse into the culture after they integrated)
Absolutely! Great point. This is honestly how most of the world operated for a long time. In fact, in many places in 2021, it still operates this way. In the US...people don't really see each other as just Americans unfortunately. Instead of just saying "I'm American"...we are expected to say "I'm black". So...my skin tone becomes my main identifier instead of me being American. People from outside the US are not used to that. It's something somewhat unique to the US...and it's stupid. We don't see each other as the same even when we are all American. That's how race-focused the US is...and most of the population is still brainwashed from it.

Thank you for bringing you for bringing up the fact that they once categorized whit people differently. I am of slavic heritage. When my family immigrated here in the early 1900's there was a lot of racism against them. There are even stories of my family just narrowly avoiding the KKK because my family were not Angl-Saxon or Protestant.
So which ones are the anglo saxons because Im confused. Please don't be mad but i thought all European people were considered Anglo Saxon. Blame it on the U.S. educational system
@@tsutt8390 hey! The anglo saxons are the people that speaks English as their native language, that is primarily people from the UK, Ireland and their descendants.
Me, for example, as I am from Spain, i am Hispanic because that is my native language. Wrongly people consider hispanic to be a race or an ethnicity but that doesn't make sense to me because a lot of different people of different races can be hispanic. That could be considered the same with the anglo saxons, but yeah that is how wrong is the race system in the US
It is very interesting and completely left out in U.S Hiistory in school the connection between empiricism enslaving Native Americans before African people. I had no idea that the French and Portuguese were among the first. I highly recommend "Lies My Teacher Told Me" by James Loewen.

So did you make up your version?
Europeans seriously thought that they were the only ones that had "history?"
No, they knew better. Some of the best scholarship on African people are in European countries. There is some good scholarship in American Universities also, but until recently it was in what they call “Special Collections” and you need special permission to enter the room. While I was working on my Masters AND Dissertation at a HBCU in the South I took a low paying job at a tier 1 Southern University just to have access to their “Special Collections”. They had everything: biographies, autobiographies, poems, drafts of original plays, lots of things written under the umbrella of the WPA, 78 records, original jazz records, original gospel records, artwork, etc. They had everything. Which is why I always say wypipo are not as clueless about our history as they pretend.
if in mediaeval ages then no, they knew about china, turkey, india, iran(that was persia), spain had a lot of arabs in south part and etc
and many historians of that time traveled to india or china to learn about culture so apparently they wrote books about X country history
