Disclaimer for viewers: this is an outdated educational film. It includes some politically incorrect and potentially offensive wordage for viewers. It depicts different races and speculates where they come from labeling them into three groups. These are identified as brown, white and yellow referring to those whom have brown pigment in their skin, those of Asian descent and those of a Caucasian skin tone respectively. The film was presented by Encyclopedia Britannica Corporation (:17).
The opening setting is at the Brookfield Zoo in Brookfield, Illinois. The first few animals shown in montage are a Red and Green McCaw parrot (:20), two toucan birds (:23), an elephant (:24), a giraffe (:36), zebra (:39), a hippo (:43), tiger (:45), and a polar bear (:50). Students are seen crowding around an animal pen (:58) prior to the title screen (1:10). Within the pen, two polar bears stand up (1:17). A flamingo (1:51) appears just before children visit a parrot (1:58). The film then switches to black and white footage to symbolize how much harder it would be to identify the animals if they were not in color (2:07). The various shades and species of birds is compared to the various shades of humans (2:39). The film pans around to show the variety of people and heritages at the zoo (2:43). Here is where the film notes at the time, scientists were dividing people into three different groups and the colors are pointed to (2:51). Three boys take to a small train ride which moves them around the park (3:41). Rides at a carnival are filmed (3:51) including a Ferris wheel and a roller coaster (4:02). The film then shows an amination of a sperm heading to an egg (5:30) and how skin tone is derived from genes. The same three boys from earlier play in a fun house mirror (6:42). The African Oryx (6:53) is compared to the zebra (6:57). These two animals, though similar cannot mate and this is also true of Dromedary and the Bactrian camel (7:09). A walrus and seal swim through waters together (7:28) as another example of animals which are similar though cannot mate. Humans, however, regardless of their appearance or heritage can mate and produce offspring (7:39). A father and son peer into the pen of the white wolf’s pen (8:08). Two young boys search for this son at the wolf’s pen (8:30) and as they approach, they question why this wolf is white while most are grey. The narrator explains that this trait, in addition to the trait that makes a silver fox (9:08) versus a red fox (9:13), is simply a mutation that occurred over time at random. Dolphins jump in and out of the water for tourists’ delight (9:24). The dolphin was thought to have once lived on land and by certain gene mutations, traded its limbs for flippers (9:54). The early history of man is depicted through diagram showing the first known humans came from Africa (10:52) and likely had more pigment in their skin tones in order to adapt to life in a jungle environment (11:06). From here, human population spread to Asia and Europe and more mutations occurred over time (11:17). In European areas, a lighter skin tone was adapted in order to allow the sun’s rays to penetrate through the skin (11:38). Early humans from the Asiatic race likely crossed Beringia (12:30) and later broke into Native Americans, Eskimos and Latino (12:37). As the mutations have remained regardless of where humans live and travel today, it is noted this is more than likely due to humans learning to adapt the environment to themselves (13:31). The film concludes as the young boys head up to a train station and board one of the trains (14:01). The film was set in the Brookfield Zoo and Riverview Park, Illinois (14:50).

Wasn't life without cell phones amazing?
It sure was amazing back then!
Definitely.
No.
Keeping the comments on for this one is stunning and brave.
Yeah, it really is.
I agree ☝️…very stunning and brave
We all know that this is purely hypothetical …. 🤪🤛
I grew up in New Zealand during this time. No one cared what color you were. We have regressed.
You can thank the cultists for that.
No, we still dont care. The left has regressed. They are insane if you havent heard. Woke virus.
Good video! I wish this was still taught today. Kids naturally see past color and have fun together regardless of race. That’s how I was brought up, and it’s how I would raise my kids someday.
Surprisingly wholesome for 1967
Thanks for being a sub.
History and geography, people from different places need those knowledge to better understand each other
As a kid I had a bunch of buddies. Being 5 years old we were into as much as we could get away with. When I was older my Mother told me my friends were Asia and Black. Until she told me I never knew or cared. I still don't care. The measure of a person is from inside.
The craziest part of this video is that you could actually buy stuff with just pennies!
Before we broke the money. We have to go back.
Both well-rounded and presented. Not preachy.
Why couldn't they just show this in school's!! Instead of segregating our future generations.. confusing the already confused sometimes very vulnerable.. this has to stop and it will. As citizens we have the responsibility of speaking up to keep our communities safe and free from this evil.
Laws banning "critical race theory" will make it problematic to show a film like this. No teacher would risk it.
@@jacksons1010 -- you are wrong. Embracing Critical Race Theory (CRT) is what would make showing this type of educational material more problematic.
CRT (like the 1619 Project) are very much evil and designed to generate both lies and hate based upon those lies.
Should we also read My Struggle in schools?
@@Remember2020 You're not even trying to hide your ignorance of what CRT is. I suppose you think states like Texas banning all talk on slavery & the Civil Rights Movement is the way to go? Get in touch with reality. Ignoring history makes people doomed to repeat it. And CRT is a graduate university theory. Not something wanting to be taught in grade schools. You just have faux news scaring you with lies & propaganda.
@@BiancaZombie That should be up to the parents but I'm curious, have you read it?
When they de-colorized the Black kid it made zero difference.
Nice to see some of the origins of the "we're all the same apart from our skin color" bullshit. I get why we focus on it but it's the least important of the differences between us.
Here’s what a social guidance film of today should teach: What separates us is any narrative of tribal identity whether you are told that narrative through a negative lens from an outside group or through a positive lens from your insider group.
Agreeing that your identity hinges on any subgroup or demographic or ancestral or traditional determinant is to contribute to furthering the divisions and animosities you might complain about.
Be an individual whose identity is self determined rather than defined by anyone else and see everyone else as equal individuals whose minor differences from you can offer you valuable perspectives. Be more evolved than the primate social hierarchy, signaling, and status competition that is also the same in all people, and stop participating in the labeling games we play with ourselves and each other.
Otherwise, stop complaining about the consequences of the divisive narratives you are agreeing to propel further.
I knew dolphins are a bit weird, but I never realized how weird they really were.
The only thing that's outdated in this film is the intelligence with which the facts are presented. Nowadays Moronism rules with a vengeance!
I know of a great many young people today who would find this film 'offensive' - simply because they don't understand that generations are accompanied by sensibility. The Modernist sensibility of 1967 in this film reasons that science (genetics) offers a truth obfuscated by the social factors of human prejudice - and that these feeble shadows can be swept away easily once people see that, by using REASON, racism is a social dysfunction based on arbitrary biological conditions, not something immanent (actually, I fear that some well thinking, progressive people TODAY believe that reacism IS immanent). Utopian thinking, to be sure (and a utopia in which I spent my formative years) - and on the surface, to us today, naive, but true...It is we today who have failed to alter the social and economic conditions as profoundly as this film wished we could half a century ago. Many things have improved, but a shocking majority have stayed very much the same -and some have even worsened.
Dogs and cats come in all sizes, shapes and colors, yet they recognize each other as dogs and cats. They are most interested in each others' health, and often abandon the disabled or sick ones.
Shit i forgot that i was a dog/cat and not a being, which has something called medical science???
And i also must have forgotten the part, that dogs and cats are able to create offspring together?
Other animals use smell as their main way of judging another animals. If we used smell then what would Liberals have to be fake woke about?
Where are these boys today? They should do some guest appearances on the networks.
You are assuming they are all still male
@@tomdalton4293 What do you mean?
@@tomdalton4293 Ohhh! snap. Yes, I assume they are all still male. And given that whey were still underage in '67, they're probably all still alive (as in didn't OD).
Dolphins think we're stupid.
Once considered obvious, then considered rude, now its a mandatory question ....
Sad to think how many zoos still exist in the world with tiny concrete cages for the animals…
It has been proven we didn’t all come from Africa. This is old science. We do have sun-species by definition.
What location do you propose humans first developed?
@@jenniferh3479 I couldn't suggest where exactly but, they are finding older skeletal remains in other places. I believe there were several, if you will, sub-species which ended up mixing together. Eventually, 3 were left. The Caucasian, Negroid, and the Mongoloid.
All the "races" we see today are an offshoot of these.
There is no Native American race or Hispanic race, or Latino's. Those all are Mongoloids. They all came from the land bridge between Asia and America.
Blacks never seemed to leave Africa until modern times pretty much.
It would seem quite odd to think we all came from Africa if the majority of the world is either Mongoloid or Caucasian.
The only reason Hispanics/Latino's look somewhat like Caucasians to a degree in many of them is because, SPAIN came to the Americas hundreds of years ago and they bred with the Natives. Natives who didn't mix with lighter skinned natives or those conquistadors remained darker skinned and kept their mongoloid characteristics.
I don't claim to be correct here but, it's my theory and I know many think the same. Even those in the science world who study this exact thing. Though, nobody would be brave enough to call it as they see it in today's fake woke world that doesn't believe in empirical evidence and the scientific method.
Women can be men and men can be women, or non-binary today.
I think my high school played this for us. It looks familiar.
Thanks 😎👍
You bet!

This promotes diversity, without being Communist in intent. Unlike today.
It funny how the narrator mentions how it's not been long enough for the African Americans to lighten up since being in a colder climate but I'm guessing this was made before prince became a thing I mean look at him versus his parents and ancestors
I want to sound clever by using these new trendy scientific names I just learnt…
LOL, you're comment actually made me uncontrollably laugh. You win the internet today, congrats.
Where was this hell hole in 1967?
The description states that the setting is the Brookfield Zoo in Brookfield, Illinois.
Would you have prefered a different hell hole?
@@erickrobertson7089 lol
And if you believe the Bible, like me.......... Adam, the first man means red man..... a dark man.
We were less racist before Obama.
12:48 It is mention that eventually one changes by evolution when it gets to colder places. But what about African hair? It was explained here that skin color is due to protection against the sun. But why do Africans have different hair texture? Why did it developed that way and how and why would it change? I think it all started when a mutation that produced a light skin with blue eyes in Africa and that human that was different was isolated by the others but eventually found a partner but another mutation occurred, and so that's how it got started, I think. The same thing happened with slanted eyes humans. I think it's accurate about America's native, especially in South America. I can see Asian features in them. What I don't understand is why I didn't get any asian genes in my DNA test, while having a grandma who was the daughter of a Peruvian who was South American Native predominantly from Incas.
Yea shure 🤪🤛
Wonderful stuff 👍

5:59 he said Negros and Whites haha. Funny how different we speak now.
I akways laugh when they say "Japs" in the WW2 training videos. I don't think they are trying to he derogatory, just a shortened way to say a 3 syllable word
that a very young denzel washington
Do they make a version of this for gender? There seem to be a LOT of people that could benefit from an educational film showing them how to determine their own sex/gender. 😂
Yeah, seems like you could benefit from a film like that. I mean, seeing as gender is really just something society just made up.
Gender has very little to do with whatever you have between your legs.
Back then it was a Scientific Fact that there were only two genders.
@@ChineseChicken1
Still is, regardless of preference, if we're actually being scientific. But that's unpopular, so I guess we'll just ignore how empirical evidence works...
Herny TudorFord I’m actually affiliated with The Bare Naked Ladies.
Good one!
That's what being black in Minnesota does for you
Shine my shoes boy
I was a little triggered at the title and description at first, expecting this to be a "know your place" film. I'm sure glad it wasn't one of those 😅
Should have been mandatory viewing in elementary school and beyond. We all ultimately came from the African rift.
We all came from Noah and his three sons.
Yes this is a plain, straightforward way to explain that physical differences are superficial.
It's been discovered recently that we all did not come from Africa .
If this is outdated, it can’t be disputed that using the words “light-skinned” and “mutation” in the same sentence was pretty brave for 1967.
It wasn’t brave it was completely wrong.
@@ChineseChicken1 With modern technology we have been able to trace human origins via mitochondrial DNA. Light skin is definitely a mutation, one that made it possible for humans to thrive in northern latitudes where there is less sunlight. Your comment shows that saying it actually is "brave", as there are always people who want to argue about it.
Jon Jackson I don’t agree.
I’m reminded of when Neil deGrasse Tyson said that “The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.”
martinthenut 1547 Your Science God won’t help you on Judgement Day. Theories are NOT facts.
Obama took us back in race relations 100yrs 😞 thanks Obama
Just for existing and triggering the psychotic Tea party/Qanon/Trumpturds
How did he do that?
@@GaiusCaesarAugustusGermanicus. Like when the Nazis blamed the Jews for anti-semitism
@@tomdalton4293 Exactly! How dare a black man (mixed-race, actually) occupy the White House! It's his fault the Republicans had to be so racist. They didn't want to do it, but Obama forced them to do it.
Obama and his husband weaponized the media (among many other institutions) and spewed his hatred for white people for 8yrs! Creating a society of victims dependent on the government! He endlessly fanned the flames of racism to bolster support for the party! Elections have been so close in the last four cycles the Democrats have to cater to minority group’s for votes! After electing the first African American president they have no platform and are at obsolescence! They rigged the last election!! Keep up 👍
I am not your pinky.

Let us marvel at the cultural progress since this video was produced in 1967. One group has continued it's tradition of education and nation building and commerce. Another group dedicated itself to higher education, STEM studies and commerce. Another group did not prioritize higher education and favors pants that hang below the butt. What will the next 50 years bring if the present trend continues ? Would like to hear your comments on that question.
You need to update your racist stereotypes. No one wears their pants like that now. You are about ten years too late.
Geez the fact you're ignorance around you're community is kinds gross. I got white friends who live on the streets, beg for money rather than work, and also wear their pants below their belts and I also have black friends who are going to college and push their kids to go to college and working in commerce. It's not all black and white as the video said 🙄
@@texaswunderkind No one ? Drove through an urban area recently. Saw whole groups of below the butt types. I see this "style" on media everyday. I read it's a fad that started in prison. It show the other inmates that you are available for sex. For some reason this group thinks emulating prison fashion is hip and cool. I guess for them perhaps it was/is. Stereotyping is a crude but often effective way to generalize the cultural traits possessed by a large, but not all, percentage of a given group.
To say that calling flat-earthers are idiotic is stereotyping them well then they have fully earned that dubious distinction haven't they. Stereo-types are earned not given.
“What will the next 50 years…”
Hopefully less ignorant racist commenters on UA-cam because they have “aged out.”
I’m black.
But are you blacker than black ya'll?
I'm white.. but not really white. Have some red tones and if given enough sun I get a bit brown.. but not brown like a black person because I'm a red head.. I have seen some black people that are just a few shades away from black.. but generally they are foreign and 1st generation from Africa. I think most black people in the united states have a bit of white in them as they are often much browner then the black people from Africa. All humans are strange...
I'm sort of salmonish, but my people have a habit of calling themselves Orange.
Lmfao
UH OH
Love how all good propaganda begins with opening lie, "scientists believe that..."
