I am Black in America. Question: Why does the cover have to be 'comfortable ' to draw a certain audience of readers? To sell magiznes.
Meanwhile it is still very much a reality of police butatily, unequal economic growth, and now my brothers even arrested at Starbucks. Sorry….. unimpressed.
First thing y'all can do is quit trying to pretend like white people built pyramids before they had even made sandals for themselves. To build pyramids takes practice. All of that practice happened in the Sudan. The Great Pyramids were built before whites learned how to make their first window, door, or Sandal strap. You want to be honest, talk about TaSetti, Nubia and Kemet and their role in creating the Egyptian culture. That would be a start. Then you can move on to how the Moors civilized Europe and brought them chivalry and Knighthood and castles and baths.
If this video bothers you then move on. Its only the racist and self hating coons who don't want to be educated or just hates melanated people that has a problem with this. When you teach history its to educate you on not to repeat the atrocities and to learn and see the beauty of differebt civilizations/cultures. Basically if this video bothers you its most likely the low IQ hateful people.
This is another example of the politically correct, academic apologists attempting to look into the past for someone to blame for past atrocities. I don't see a lot of racism in early National Geographic Magazine images, some questionable perhaps but outright deliberate racism no. These early images were taken at a time when attitudes were different, they were taken to document events as they happened "at the time" and are therefore historical records. From an artistic and even technical viewpoint, the photography was stunning as has always been the case with NG.
They featured cultures that a lot of us had never heard of and as such helped move us more towards a greater understanding of the world resulting in our now collective acceptance and inclusiveness of all cultures within modern society.
To go back now and look for someone to blame is pedantic, fickle and just a waste of time.
We as a society have moved on and we should learn from history but to continually look for people or organisations to blame is not a mature forward thinking approach.
By the way, I am indigenous non white. My people, if you want to be truthful, were in fact savages in terms of modern views.
What the politically correct seem to hate is telling the truth. My people the Maori, cut others heads off, they ate them, I was told stories of how the human hand is the tastiest part of the body, white people tasted terrible because they were too salty. They slaughtered thousands. This is the truth. Same goes for many other cultures.
But to white people, ie the folks who created National Geographic, non-whites ARE exotic, and in comparison to to the highly structured and productive societies whites create, potentially primitive and uncivilized.
That doesn't fit the description of racism, unfortunately.
I am completely against racism of any sort but the only word to describe this whole discourse is 'stupidity'

You can't deny that in modern history explorers were white and came from Europe. They weren't Chinese or Indians
