http://www.MediaEd.orgFrom the DVD:The Pathology of PrivilegeRacism, White Denial & the Costs of InequalityFor years, acclaimed author and speaker Tim Wise has been electrifying audiences on the college lecture circuit with his deeply personal take on whiteness and white privilege. In this spellbinding lecture, the author of White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son offers a unique, inside-out view of race and racism in America. Expertly overcoming the defensiveness that often surrounds these issues, Wise provides a non-confrontational explanation of white privilege and the damage it does not only to people of color, but to white people as well. This is an invaluable classroom resource: an ideal introduction to the social construction of racial identities, and a critical new tool for exploring the often invoked - but seldom explained - concept of white privilege.

You see, sdrob40, because of the way scientists have been able to construct migration maps from DNA, it is quite likely that they would be able to tell us a great deal about your hypothetical undiscovered jungle tribe. So long as this heretofore undiscovered tribe of yours was human, there is an excellent chance that scientists could tell tell us which population group(s) they descended from as well as trace the large scale migration paths of their ancestors. You're so damn ignorant it hurts.

Also, sdrob40, just for your edification you should study human population genetics and especially look up human haplogroups. I know from experience with you that you won't actually study anything, but you should. Scientists have been able to use DNA to map the dispersal and division of human population groups across the world. Scientists can tell a lot more from DNA than just where someone's immediate ancestors came from. They can trace where entire population groups migrated from and to.

MY NAME IS sdrob40 AND I KNOW MORE ABOUT SCIENCE THAN SCIENTISTS!!!!!DUR DUR DUR!!!!Tell us some more about what is science and what isn't! It's really funny to listen to an arrogant little 16 year old shit like you prattle on about something they obviously don't understand. You know, I think there is a good chance you're actually a Neo-nazi troll trying to make anti-racists look stupid and uninformed. There's no better explanation for your inane, trollish behavior. What a dumbass.

Let me explain something....They map a person by taking DNA from heavily populated countries in Europe, Arfica, and Asia. So if they were to want to know where, oh say, 50HitlerPost comes from, they already got samples. Thats not science, thats the match game. A monkey.....or you ....could do that. Now if they took a sample from someone in the Rain Forrest(who hasn't been mapped) they could only tell you it's HUMAN DNA.

I am asking you because you seem to be mixing up social construction (a sociological term) with something biological. They are too seperate things.

Thank you.

LoveTruth86 said:>>I will begin by asking you, what is a social construct? We actually just had a discussion about this yesterday. It seems to have vanished into the spam filter now. A social construct is the end result of any effort of human social construction. According to constructivist epistemology, all knowledge of any kind is the result of social construction, and is thus also a social construct. For example, the very idea of a social construct is itself a social construct.

A social construct has to do with sociology not biology.
