We can be different ethnically but it doesn’t mean that we’re not the same as citizens if we’re born in the same country. Our biological past is only really relevant to our doctors and partners.
Yes, skin is just different shades of the same protein. However, there are significant differences in medicine in how people of various groups respond to medication, their propensities for an assortment of diseases, etc. There is enough differences to make correct generalities about risk for diabetes, lactose intolerance, hypertension, cancer, etc., that it is irresponsible for doctors to not consider race in medical treatment. Skin color is of little to no importance (unless it's related to the skin, such as with melanoma), but race is only marginally related to one's skin. It's only that when we look at people, we notice the color of skin more than what is actually different.
I'm Canadian, and I thought we were as American as apple pie, but this class has shown me how weird America is. It honestly makes more sense to me now, why so many of their problems exist.
One of the things I've heard from people visiting the US is how friendly the people here are. I think that is a part of us that we are proud of and for sure carry with us no matter where we are traveling
Where are these friendly Americans? No honestly I need to move there. I'm in Los Angeles and people straight up go around convinced everyone else is trying to do something bad to you. People are never friendly here. Only people you work with are kinda friendly and your family is the only true friends...
I agree, as a reserved Brit we notice the American over friendly nature. It's kind of endearing, your like lovely simple folk

1:09:00 To Europeans, the overt display of patriotism in the United States is quite intriguing. While all European countries have their own flags and anthems, there isn't the same compulsion to flaunt them overtly. This could perhaps be attributed to the fact that each European nation tends to be more homogeneous and possesses a lengthy, well-established history, or to say it in other words, a more comprehensive "shared myth".
From what I have seen cultrally the United States is still figuring things out it took us Scots about roughly 600 maybe 700 years to fugure out how to be united as one culture we still are not fully there some feel british some feel scottish the south as a friendly but there's real distain for the north and vice versa but we are all still scottish to an outsider. And thats without the injection of separate ethnicity or racial groups by in large for the bigger period of time
I love he differentiates how people with English as 2nd a language would use words not realizing there is a relationship on how words put together is seen as bad.
I would really like to sit down over a coffee and debate some topics with this prof. Like a civil, intelligent, rational, able to disagree but also respect the other person type discussion. Because there are things in his class but he seems as though you could have that type of conversation even if you both completely disagree with the other.
@jackiechilds8047 respectfully he's not debating, he's instructing. What I'm saying is he seems like you could sit down as equals and have a rational conversation and come away still respecting each other despite disagreement.
I’d love to talk to him too. He seems like nothing could be a taboo subject with him. He’s pretty good at breaking a subject down and really getting to the bones of the matter. What sort of things would you want to talk about?
The reason for the US to be referred to as America is because the name of the country is "United States of America." Literally no other country references America in their name; therefore, the rest of the world ascribe the US as America for verbal simplicity.
Mexico is actually "The United States of Mexico". So, according to this principle, we aren't allowed to abbreviate "I am a citizen of The United States of America." USA was the first independent country in the Americas, and term "American" is as hold over from when it was obvious what it meant.
@@paulamorales2292May I suggest that there were many independent nations in America before European colonists invaded. The USA was the first immigrant community to gain independence from colonial authority. And then used their independence to invade and colonise the other pre-existing nations.
The term caucosoid was mostly for politicla reasons. There was a significant christian population in the reigion that was under theeat of extermination by the Ottomans. By including the caucus people in the category of whites, he was hoping to draw more attention to their plight. It wasn't because he was particularly in love with them, just that he wanted to draw a strict border between white europe and eastern islam, and entrench that in the common consciousness. It didn't work, Armenian genocide and all of that.

Color is just that, a color. 10 people of common ethnicity and color can have vastly different cultural experiences. Just put your color away and eagerly learn abt the experiences of others. Signed, an old conservative white dude
Most people I have spoken to that are "white" don't even think about it. It just doesn't click, it's not a club, or tribe. There are many different peoples that are considered "White" that have darker skin. So what I see from this conversation is that a whole lot of people consider certain actions or mindsets to be "White". Why does it matter? Everyone experiences discrimination somewhere in the US. White people too, just ask the people living in Newark or N. Stl. There are many stereotypes out there that reflect certain behaviors produced by different cultures. This is what people think of whenever a race, any race, is mentioned. Semantics matter. Why do we categorize ourselves in these ways? I feel it is an evolutionary remnant that helped to protect the nascent town or village from invasion. People that looked different were a true potential threat that needed to be addressed. Most Americans lack perspective on other cultures. The whole "Go backpack through Europe" thing was a good idea, I think.
Honestly Arabs, Latinos, Africans are all so loud when theyre in a group and having fun. I dont think its just an American thing 😅. Not a bad thing but i think its across several cultures but maybe less in Europe
Except if you are from Africa you don't call in Africa it's the Continent and you refer to what tribe you're from. Only if you're Black in America do you say African American
But even here among Europeans, I've heared Swedish people thing Germans are loud...compared to the Italians and other southern tempraments, where? 😂 😂 Highly subjective and what you're used to hear, I suppose.
The Greek guy is Greek. He is also white, but I would not consider him "white" if asked about ethnicity. He is Greek. If we go off skin color I would say olive/Mediterranean. Not white. But hearing him say he considers himself white, and he never mentioned the Mediterranean, is interesting. I wish I could have been in this class to bring this up.
I've never heard Olive/Mediterranean when it comes to race. Race itself is a pretty vague concept. No one who's white actually has white skin (except maybe an albino Irish person), it's usually peachy, pink, tan, olive, etc. His ethnicity is Greek, and his race is white.
@@douchecraft3113 Even that depends on how you'd actually want to define the "white race". It doesn't really have a biological definition after all, the actual line is drawn by society.
@@gilgameshkingofheroes5903 That's true, but this is class taught in the US with the title of "American Whites" - so that's the line I'm using in my comment.
"People of Color" is the same as saying "female doctor". I mean, doctors are doctors. People are people. If you must use 'People of color ' then others should be people without color.

Begins the class showing a map of North and South America… “people in these countries are all Americans.” Proceeds to ask lots of students from other countries, “What makes someone an American (United States)?” 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Yes. Just because something is popular, doesn't make it accurate. Back in the 60's, before DNA tests , the term "African American" was popularized. It meant something specific to us in the USA at the time, because so many black people here didn't know *which* countries in Africa their ancestors came from and it made sense. We don't generally call someone from a South American country an " South American-American".
Ok professor Brazil has 5 ethnic categories. It’s Petra parda amarela or indígena lol he said 60 categories?? Bro is trippin. And Brazilians mostly will just identify as Brazilian.
Sadly, these youth can't have a conversation because of blurred lines. Too many people have their versions of their truth, and thus linked to truth. Usa culture is weird.
@groan5749 I can see your comment on tv but not phone! Im old and not gonna figure that out rn. Yup. As an American I found him annoying as well. I will give my reason as we Americans are loud and outspoken (usually not my style. I prefer meek and mild) He seemed annoyed, agitated and wanted to interrupt to prove he was right. Prove he was right and better than.
I like these lectures and how he move the discussions. But how he can say there is a Syrian civil war at a high level. How disingenuous it is to describe a genocide of political targets and "non Syrians".
As an Arab American, we can't even choose anything besides white on census polls... To this day i have to put I'm white even though when I look in the mirror I am 100% not,
If you say your a minority then you have lied on your app. There is no such thing as a minority this is a category used in order to keep human rights away from selected groups. Oh and stop calling her Latina because mom was from Brazil. The language of Brazil is Portuguese. How is that Latina. If your going to label everything get your labels correct. Oh and by the way White is a color. In fact white is the combination of all colors where as black is the absence of color yet blacks are sometimes referred to as colored. You swing words around lime a sledgehammer without even knowing their meanings
Portuguese is a Romance language... based on LATIN. As are French, Spanish, Italian and Romanian. You obviously mean something very specific when you use the term Latina.
Im surprised at how much of his intro appeared to be lined with opinions stated as facts....thats not his typical approach. For example, in regards to Af. Americans, when other Americans say colored it is definetly taken as racist and i dont thunk thatll ever change based o thebhistory of how it was and is still used today. Also, If you are foreign, no one is gonna assume ur racist for saying colored bc the history is different and so the intent behind the word is different.
The PC nomenclature for how to address black people has changed constantly. First there was ''negro'', then ''colored'', then ''black'', now it's ''African American''. Frankly, it's tedious and often used as a ''gotcha'' moment for the racially obsessed.

Bra!!! Bra!!! How about Sir and Ma’am!!!
It’s not hard. Being American means being European born in America or having immigrated here. The prerequisite is being European in any scenario.

@SOC119 lol you're absolutely right!
Whiteness is a sense of privilege and prestige... Its simple... The professor needs to go harder into these people.
OK racist

as european i found the greek guy annoying for some reason... lol
Why though ? I am european as well and he was the most well spoken
Think before you talk man .
Stay in Europe
@@Konniesmith123 that may be true but I just found him annoying... When he said that is a Greek word or something... Wow... Get over yourself...
@@jenniferbond5771 yep i plan to... Never wanted to go to USA and get killed by random shooting...
@@goran5754i am just saying that you do not know how it feels to be one of the two european amongst thousand of people so do not be insensitive and immediatle say something mean and characterize the greek boy as annoying
I can say as a European we kinda sorta idolise America because of popculture and stuff like that, but american politics especially the last 25 years have been kinda crazy to us especially things like the love of guns, warmongering etc. American wars have created such a large influx of alot immigrants in such a short amount of time and we struggled with integration.
Very true !!
she is very obviously not latina. She may have Spanish or Portuguese ancestry but she is not "latina". That girl prob wears ugs in the winter and drinks pumpkin spice lattes
Yes, race is only skin deep, the same depth of your knowledge 👏 😉
@@Obamasama-tr8nl if race is only skin deep then why are entire cultures built around race?
Good on you for trying though!
Guess what, “Latino” isn’t a race, and furthermore, as an ethnicity, “Latino” isn’t very representative of “Brazilians”.
Love the scouser accent on the British guy.
That's not a scouse accent lol he has an Indian accent
It’s wild that the girl gets told she looks Brazilian 😂
Being brazilian is not about skin color or heritage,it's about being born in Brazil,easy as that...
