Yes I think that's where he's going for in his lectures. The same way he talks about in another video what skin color is considered "attractive" within their specific culture (he has a bunch of random white and black, american and foreign women giving their opinion on those guys), where he has like five guys ranging from pale white to dark brown skin. Some people in the comments apparently didn't get his point and of course took offense to what he was doing calling him racist.🙄
Because full-blooded middle Eastern people are and always will be Caucasoid. Hollywood loves to create false stereotypes, casting mixed race Arabs and non Arabs in middle Eastern roles to fit the geo political narrative.
@Bitweded AbrahaPure Arabs are predominantly olive skinned in the winter, minority are fair skinned in the winter too. They are the same skin tone as other Mediterranean people like Italians, Greeks, Albanians and Romanians. The motherland of all Arabs is Jordan. It is where their language first evolved. The Arabs built an empire of 22 nations, mixing and migration has occurred since then. Millions of Arabs are black sub Saharan African and mixed race. Their are many Arabs on UA-cam that have done DNA tests to find out they are part black East African. Or even part South Asian. Anthropology has determined that Arabs are one of the first Caucasoid people on earth to evolve and that all Europeans are descended from them. I never mentioned skin color in my first post. Skin color changes with sun exposure and doesn't determine race. Craniofacial features determine race. Arabs are also very racist towards blacks and Indians and Bangladeshi people. The Arab in this video is typical of most Arabs.
@@davidwinner6926 what?? when was the last time we Arabs look like that??? i would no mistake him no near the middle east most of us are just olived skin/burned with sematic feature with curly/ wavy hair just come to Saudi Arabia you will see the sad reality.

Well the US government actually officially acknowledge Taiwan as part of China. So there's nothing wrong in saying they are the same since he's a US citizen lol
TaeNyFan so you believe everything Uncle Sam says? If Taiwan belongs to Communist China then why is Taiwan seen as an US ally and Comminist China seen as a strategic competitor? They are not the same politically, but the same ethnically. And political difference is the real issue here.
@@aey2579 The reason US sees Taiwan as an ally is because it is using Taiwan as a chess piece to limit China. It supports Taiwan so that there is instability in the part of China. Which is what the US always like to see - other countries fighting each other so that it can continue to stay no. 1 in the world.
Jose Rodriguez But which part of me is a real canadian since I have amerindian blood? And which part of me should go back to England? I hope it won't be the french part. Could create even more conflicts. 🤔 Humans are complicated. 😅
America has all the big name universities perfect for resumes, other than that it’s England. If we’re talking about K-12 education than yes, Sweden is better but not when it comes to top universities.
Some people don't care about having the "best" education, but just looking for an experience in another country. America and UK are easier because there's a little language barrier.
Some universities are specialized in certain areas. You want to study where the best professor in your field is. Like UT has the prifessor with the best knowledge of politics in Europe during WW II. So if thats your field you want to go there even if it costs more.
I agree that TRAVELING is an education in itself & what YOUR PARENTS instill in you matters what your perspective of the world around is... Thanks to the honest students. We all learn something from each other thru communication.
He was shocked because people (obviously Chinese students) clapped. I was also shocked and disgusted. While the professor was joking the students didn’t take it as a joke and clapped. Gross.
Carlos GC Nah. It’s not really a joke to Chinese students. I’m just saying this from experience with them. While Taiwanese students might be cool with it I’m not because I know their intentions.
EXACTLY!!! They were thinking that he was implying that all Chinese countries are the same. He was actually referring to the China-Taiwan conflict where China is claiming Taiwan to be a part of China but Taiwan wants to be a separate country.
Me too! I found this class pretty interesting to watch. It's kinda like a social experiment on real life issues that no one dares to talk about, at least not openly in public lol
I like how the professor try to expose his students to different countries and cultures. He is right people make assumptions of you or others in the society. And yes, just by communicating with foreigners you learn about various countries not through CNN.
2:10 typical American student unaware and uneducated about international conflicts. He through the instructor was implying all Asians are Chinese. The comment was based on Chinese-Taiwanese political conflict rather then a racist one.
If you watch his other videos, you'd see that he tries to influence the answers his students give and quickly tries to reject it as soon as it doesn't go his way. I'm yet to understand the whole idea behind this "social experiment ".
I’m from China but I travel around the world and used to study in the west. It’s very easy to tell Asians apart, like who is local Japanese Korean Chinese , who is American Asian, it’s easy to tell them apart for me. However some people who live in USA, although they are actually from another country, but they like to pretend or act like they are local Americans. Well I guess its purpose is to blend in better?
So in america you talk about "races" in the university?! In Germany every little child in elementary school is being thought that there is only one race... THE HUMAN RACE, there are ethnicities, no races...
@@Brucelee89896 I´m not saying that everybody is the same. We are all individuals, but racial doctrine is a myth... There are different cultures, but there are no different human races.
@@devineballer3009 Yes exactly. And different appearances. But this talk about "race" makes me extremely uncomfortable since it has so strong conotations to nazism. To me it's almost as bad as americans feel for "the n word".
lmaooo except there ARE ethnicities AND races. talking about them isn't bad. it's when you discriminate and make judgements based on them that's bad dumbass
I'm terrible guessing when it comes to Asian culture , we so close minded the we assuming all of them are from China , it's hard to tell what's their ectnicity
@2:11 Dr. Sam Richards, sir you need to watch with all the generalizations that you're making. There is a difference and as a professor/professional teaching sociology you should already know that there is a difference regardless of past history/cultural similarities. In addition, you may possibly be offending people.
First thing, be a polite person, we can not judge people by their appearance. Second thing, people go to University to find and study their interest, not judge people and tag them by their native or background.
@LupitaSin21 Is this a 90’s talk show or an actual college class? Where did this professor do his research? I would love to read his dissertation! He does not sound like a real Phd. Students should be reading and studying case studies published in scholarly journals, and the professor should be lecturing. The discussions should be happening in small groups with the T.A.s after class. *SOCIOLOGY 101: DO NOT MAKE UNSUBSTANTIATED ASSERTATIONS OR DRAW CONCLUSIONS BASED ON CASUAL OBSERVATIONS! YOUR INFERENCES MUST BE BASED ON RIGOROUS DOCUMENTED ANALYSIS OF DATA! THIS CLASS IS BOGUS* , in my humble opinion. I had no idea state colleges were that bad! No wonder people are bribing their way into Ivy League schools!
Janet Wood I don't like this professor either but let's not be so judgmental without having all the facts. Maybe he's is making his students study from scholarly journals and giving them lectures and also this.
@Janet Wood , I am yet to understand the whole point of his classes. Its unethical for a scientist to try to influence his "sample " to avoid bias, but this guy is obviously biased and tries to swing the reasoning of his students his way.
I got most of them right.The guy in Blue wear a chelsea Kit,not American,the first speaker is Egyptien.What is the point of his lecture ?. I live in the capital of the world(London).I seen,met most nationalities.London is gr8 experience all world cultures.
I like the subject and your way of educating, by practical examples, by normalizing that colors are colors and not a label to describe a person. That way they see how each person perceive them, I like that, but I believe you should give a better moral of the story. Besides that’s a great way to show we are all the same and equals no matter our skin color. Overall? I just don’t like the cameras jumping around when the actual interesting part of seeing who’s being picked as what can’t be seen, because you’re recording the audience, which by the way, is a terrible one. There’s nothing interesting to see there. I say keep the camera on the stage and keep another cameraman getting expressions so at the post processing you add the best ones...but we the online audience, are only interested in the stage actions, like those who where physically there.
We are oll brainwashed because of religion first. Religion teach us White is light and good and black is darkness and bad. But iT is not the truth! IT does not excist
*Wow! I feel sorry for the students! In my humble opinion, this professor is a fraud! He obviously does not prepare lectures for his class. Instead he does wacky experiments that do not do teach the students anything! Where's the curriculum? The readings? WHAT A WASTE OF TAX PAYERS MONEY!*
Why? Because he talks about real life issues that no one dares to talk about out in the open, so people like you might feel uncomfortable? I think his classes play more into the social and psychological aspects of today's society and why some people are how they are in terms of why they choose a person of a certain skin color or area over others within their culture or another. I think there's something to be learned here, don't be so closed minded.
This teacher is crazy saying Taiwan and China are the same! China is a massive continental country with many groups. Taiwan is probably southern Chinese and....FREE!
This class was so poorly planned. He should had made labels for people to put on those in the line-up instead of trying to remember which labels everyone got.
I beg you not to differentiate each other from one another, all must join and work together, all humans have their own charm, we humans are nothing perfect, only god is perfect, anytime we can die when God takes life 😊😊
stop........ They were being introduced to the idea that there are certain aspects including form of physical presentation including hand movement, posture, etc. can be signs of people from other backgrounds. Those who are more "hyphenated Americans" than everyone who is already here...
With all due respect Doc…Taiwan is NOT a part of China. It NEVER once was a part of China. Taiwan is it’s OWN COUNTRY. The CCP NEVER ONCE RULED Taiwan before, in its existence.
