Amazingly interesting and very inspirational video....! I just wish someone showed something like this to me when I was in high school and was thinking about which university and scientific branch to choose. Please continue in your efforts, John Hawks. You are doing a wonderful job....!
Passion of Lee Berger shines through. Thank you for sharing, looking forward to the others you mention on your blog. Will certainly see if I'm suitable for next year's online course.
Go Gamecocks! =)......He is from a small (very small) town in south Ga. (Sylvania) and went to Screven County High! Outstanding that he is where he is and the evolutionary impact he is making and a part of.......=)
So this is an ignorant question but did the earlier Leakey Foundation keep a private close set of reins on their collection of evolutionary fossils in Africa?
This is a great question. Actually the Leakey family and the National Museums of Kenya were early leaders in distributing copies of fossils widely, and worked with the Viking Fund (later the Wenner-Gren Foundation) to produce casts for sale to universities and museums.
A walking upright ape with human hands on ape arms with humans size teeth is great evidence of evolution in process, clearly leaving the trees automatically led to human qualities soon after being ground animals. This process followed an expendential rate with different hominids breeding with each other, seems to me anything homo is compatible for pregnancy and birth and genetics will see it☹️❤️🇬🇧

Wonderful interview, I enjoyed it! Open Science- yessssss!! Knowledge & learning are for everyone, not just the privileged few.

What? No wacko creationist comments from this video???
+Neominois ridingsii ssshhhh!
So enlightening. Both of them have had a good disruptive impact on paleoanthropology, which has been dominated by the fossil hoarders.
very, very exciting interview
scintillating, inspiring words from an already living legend and all around swell dude in Lee Berger! what a guy
+Tom Arabia I wonder if he'll adopt me and take me on digs. I'm only 10 years younger than him so that wouldn't be weird at all.
I had no idea that it took him so long to dig at Malapa and there was that much material exposed. It does indeed sound like a rich fossil bed.
brilliant conversation!!

thanks :)
I am not a scientist, but this is so interesting. Thanks, Dr. Berger, for open access and your positive predictions for the future of anthropology.
