  • Relax chief, it was meant to be a liberal play on the word.

  • Comment removed

  • Caucasus!!! not Caucasia!!! fucking illiberality!!!

  • Even though everyone keeps telling me that race is a social construct, I am still able to tell the difference between an asian, white, and black.

  • @MrSmibby Ok, what are the "differences" of the groups as you have named them? I would also like for you to define each of the groups since you are able to discern a difference. Then if you can, please tell me what the "differences" amount to. I await your answers...

  • @OAProject If you aren't intelligent enough to spot the difference between a native from Germany, a native from Ethiopia, and a native from China, there is no point talking with you.

  • @MrSmibby That's a complete NON answer or a NON definition of what I guess you were trying to say. Instead of trying to insult my level of intelligence, which you know nothing about, why don't you show yours and define YOUR answers. I didn't make you say what YOU said. Your supposed criticism of me doesn't prove YOUR point.

  • Oh, and just so you know, I was just informed that I have been chosen to speak AGAIN at the National Conference on Race & Ethnicity in American Higher Education in San Francisco, CA You are more than welcome to come there and explain YOUR answers as well.

  • @OAProject If there are no differences then why are you speaking at a conference about race and ethnicity?

  • @MrSmibby Actually I have a better suggestion, why don't you go to my channel and listen to the introduction video concerning the entire project and then you might understand why I speak at the conferences. I'm not a supporter of the conferences and don't think all of this continued arbitrary and undefined "racial" categorization is helping to solve any problems. You should also look at the written portion on my channel and realize that as part of this documentary I have spent the last 8 years.

  • talking with scientists of every type, religious professionals from the Christian, Jewish, and Islamic faiths, as well as a State Attorney General and other legal folks concerning the current and historical usage and definitions of the words people commonly use in regards to trying determine a person's "race." I already know the answers to the questions I'm asking. I asked the people in the video and around the country to see if people know the definitions of the words THEY are using.

  • Now, you started to give me your explanation of the difference of people that are "native" to Germany, China, and Ethiopia. And I also asked you to explain what those "differences" mean to you. I don't know your background and would never insult your intelligence out of hand, but if you are an authority on the subject with published work, I would certainly read it.

  • @OAProject It doesn't take any intelligence, even a child can tell the difference between a group of Africans and a group of Europeans. Hint - Europeans have light skin and Africans have dark skin. Their facial structure is different also.

    Racial reality is also the reason that Africans do so well in the 100 meter sprint, for example.

    I don't believe in authority. I don't believe in the authority of Obama to control our troops and murder millions of people in foreign countries, sorry.

  • @MrSmibby I will leave your comments and posts up for everyone to read and learn from (sarcasm) Maybe it might be of some interest for you to google the results of the 100 meters at any of the Olympics and see the glaring lack of non-African countries. If it was "racial" as you say, shouldn't that list be dominated by African countries? It's a rhetorical question, you don't have to answer. I was wrong in assuming this conversation was going to amount to an exchange of information.

  • @OAProject I don't know if you're trying to be funny? African DNA people, you know, they kind of look like you, usually win the 100m sprint. Show me an example of a European DNA person or Asian DNA person winning the 100m sprint, and I will give you 100 x that amount who are African DNA people.

  • @MrSmibby Did you even google the Olympic 100 meter sprint results BEFORE you replied? You brought up the 100 meter sprint as some sort of proof for YOUR statement. Your comments are still unfocused and completely unsupported!

  • @OAProject To clarify, when I say "African", it doesn't mean a European person living in Africa. It means the indigenous African racial type. You are African (you might have some European ancestry, but you are mostly African)

  • @MrSmibby You are African (you might have some European ancestry, but you are mostly African) "European DNA?" "African DNA?" Again, google DNA and maybe genetics BEFORE you answer. Maybe look at a current map of HUMAN migration out of AFRICA and you might understand that EVERYBODY on the PLANET is of AFRICAN DNA! Your language and arguments are useless, outdated and without merit!

  • If you have any other responses, please list some INFORMATION that SUPPORTS what you are saying. I'm not interested in what you THINK is true. 

  • @OAProject No point in talking with the delusional. Goodbye.

  • @MrSmibby FINALLY! The first thing you said that I completely support! I asked you to support YOUR statements and you couldn't. In the future, if you want to question the accomplishments of a person you don't know, please for your own sake, include some facts that substantiate what you say. Otherwise, your intelligence, or how you comprehend information could be placed in doubt. But, I will keep your comments up. It shows what happens when logic is included into a "racial" discussion.

  • @OAProject Haha, I did support my arguments, read up about racial differences. By attempting to project into the reader's mind that a group of people who evolved in Africa and a group who evolved in Northern Europe are the same, even though there are obvious differences in DNA, culture, and standards of living, you are proving that you view yourself as an inferior type. If this was not true, why do Whites try to escape black neighborhoods, while blacks attempt to move into them?

  • @MrSmibby Please stop...I have no more time for you.

  • @OAProject Excellent, you have no arguments, You are wrong. Goodbye. Nice insults with the cockless mountains...not.

    

  • I re-iterate I have nothing against you, I am just completely perplexed as to why you would want to say that obvious differences between the races do not exist.

  • @MrSmibby Likewise, I don't have anything against you. I really only continued with the discussion so I could capture your comments and thought processes for this channel and my blog. In your very first comment you said " Even though everyone keeps telling me that race is a social construct, I am still able to tell the difference between an asian, white, and black." That means other people have tried and FAILED to help YOU understand.

  • @OAProject Well mate, talk to some forensic scientists, who can easily determine what race you are by taking DNA samples from you. Oh, I forgot, race doesn't exist, it's just a social construct, but it can be tested by physical DNA.

    LOL!

  • Only one of us gets paid to present information on this and other related topics in front of academic and scientifically trained people who DO understand how to do their own research and support their statements. Your comments have only served to help me show how some people DESPITE information from people more advanced in the subject in which they are commenting on, will continue to persist and carry on with their limited knowledge and outdated viewpoints. Was a pleasure, take care!

  • @OAProject Lol you're hilarious man. Good luck with your conferences. I don't know why you want to say that Africans are the same as Asians or Europeans, but hey, good luck with it. Doesn't bother me dude :)

  • African Albinos killed for body organs.

    watch?v=9F6UpuJIFaY

    At once proving that race is more than skin deep and that Africans are the originators of racism, actually, not even racism, but murder due to skin color, which is even more intolerant than murdering due to race (which Africans love doing to the Boers)

    Continue with your 10 year waste about saying that Europeans aren't European because Caucasians are from Russia. Mate, you're so ridiculous and have no argument whatsoever.

  • I have a question. Where is Negronesia?

  • MrSmibby is currently promoting a campaign to end women's suffrage in america

  • @Paperclown My friend, that makes no sense. I applaud your efforts. WE ARE NOT THE SAME, I'M SORRY. AND YES, MY PEOPLE ARE MORE ALIKE THAN ANY OF YOU PEOPLE.

    Otherwise, DNA testing for race wouldn't exist. You say what is Caucasion who gives a shit - you spent 10 years of your life proving that Caucasion isn't a race? Well here's one - Somalia isn't a race. Hahah. Well it is, but we all know Somalians are fucking black don't we? Yes we do.

  • @MrSmibby say what ? my comment to you was Women's Suffrage. I know i'm not caucasia. I knew that place was between russia and the middle east years ago.

    If you want to troll morons, check those channels who ask if anime is based on japanese or american culture and start outlining face shapes and stuff. they love the word caucasian there.

  • @Paperclown This whole thing about women's suffrage is stupid because I never brought it up. Basically your whole argument revolves around making a joke about White people having no penises, even though I as a Scottsman feel that your assertion is wrong, and a clip of you thinking that a white woman is sexually attracted to you because she looks at you in a way that is pleasing to you. Man, you gotta go out and get some pussy. You aren't destroying my pride. LOL, But you look like a monkey.

  • please if you re have questions tell me

  • you now im study caucasian nations and this is right in Dagestan in CHECHNYA AND GEORGIA AND NORTH PART of Azerbaijan are Caucasian antropolgy tip namely face white and blonde hears

  • Blumenbach considered the skulls of the Georgians to be the epitome of the white race, and he named the first class of humans after the country's home in the Caucasus Mountains.

  • @giopa110888 Thanks for your comments!! I really appreciate your response. But, my question isn't "Why DID we ever start calling "white" people Caucasians?" Nor is my question, "How did Caucasians become the "white" people?" Blumenbach's division of the human species into separate "races" was arbitrary and undefined and therefore is not supported by today's science. Which actually has it the other way around in that most scientists have the position that darker skinned people were on the planet-

  • @OAProject: can you make people change this because I always find it uncomfortable filling out applications seeing the label caucasian. i knew it was by turkey and i'm not from there. Most immigrants in the since colonization of the us have mixed blood with indians, irish, german, etc etc.. and having white skin does not mean your "race" is from turkey.

    i'm suprised how many people in your video didn't know this and took it as a joke.

  • @giopa110888 A lot of information has surfaced since Blumenbach's time, 216 years in fact. Do we still have to use his incorrect information to try and solve today's problem? If so, how far do you think we will get using arbitrary and old information?

  • why do we call white people Caucasians? The term was popularized by the German scientist Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, who in 1795 divided the human species into five races: Caucasian, the "white" race; Mongolian, the "yellow" race; Malayan, the "brown" race; Ethiopian, the "black" race; and American, the "red" race. He considered the Caucasians to be the first race on Earth, consistent with the common conception of the Caucasus as a place of human origin.

  • @giopa110888 -first. So my question is, "Why do we STILL use this word, that has been proven to be inaccurate, in reference to anyone? People still make the connection of "white" equals Caucasian even though the people from the areas where you could be considered Caucasian, don't consider themselves to be connected to all of the other countries that are incorrectly being mentioned as Caucasian countries. To my understanding, darker skinned people have also lived in the Caucus countries.

  • SuperExpressway LOL tajikistan, uzbekistan, kyrgistan not Caucasus countries this countries are central Asia.

  • Caucasian people: Georgia, Chechnya Ingushetia Dagestan, Karachay-Cherkesia Kabardino-Balkaria and Adigey.

    4 country of Caucasia: Georgia, Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan. but only georgians are caucasians. armenians are indo-europeans, azers are Turks, russia-slavs

  • if you look at the map, caucasia (kavkaz) is below russia. north caucasia --> ( ingushetia, chechnya,dagestan,georgia,oset­ia,armenia,Balkaria, cherkesia,azerbaijan)....on the other side . ( beside the caspian sea ) is east caucasia --> tajikistan, uzbekistan, kyrgistan etc.. and the caucasians in america are bullshit.........got it O.o?...

  • Georgia Azerbaijan Armenia Chechnya Ingushetia Dagestan Alania Karachay-Cherkesia Kabardino-Balkaria and Adigey are Caucasian countries!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • thank you so much for uploading this !! its a shame that americans dont even know who the caucasians are and where caucasia is ! and caucasians dont like it if americans call themself caucasians !

    caucasians are people from caucasia and countries like georgia azerbaijan and armenia are caucasian countries

  • switzerland and germany near caucasus ??? and where the hack is alpes ??? oh it's in a australia i suppose..... man it's just a shame to  be so ignorant...... and by the way this man's question is wrong not 4 country.......have you ever seen the map in your life ??? Only russia Georgia and azerbaijan have access to caucasian mountains. and south ossetia is not a country.

  • Love it. I'm proud to be of the Caucasus.

  • eh!

    one question?!

    my ex girlfriend was white and blond. and her name was nadya. and she said that she was caucasian white?! what the hell does that mean? i allways thought she was swedish

  • @det0xine I have NO idea what she meant!! Where was she born and even more importantly where does she live now?

  • However mate, the reason why american used "caucasian" is due to the fact that one scientist was proving that modern europeans originate in caucasus region. consequently all white americans as descendent of europeans.god bless caucasus mountains

  • Good video BTW

    Way to get people thinking

    =)))

  • Well the Europeans must have migrated to Europe from the Caucasus Mountains,so basically we are decedents of the true Caucasians.

    And the label Black & White was established in what is known now as America,to divide based on Race (Racism) when in reality we should refer to each other based on Nation/Nationality (Euro,Afrikan ect)

  • so this means im asian,cool.

  • east turkey also belongs to caucasia. my family, who are turkic used to live in georgian territory. i´m a caucasian. the white people from anywhere are not caucasian!

  • Thanks Hawk816816!

  • laz are caucasian too

  • right

  • Hey Davidlmacl, thanks for answering. From Wikipedia: Today, there are over one billion native speakers of Indo-Aryan languages, most of them native to South Asia, where they form the majority. (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Maldives) Besides, if the Indo-Arayans "came up from northern India, how did they get there? Do you think it is still a valid racial category? If so, what is it measuring?

    en(dot)wikipedia(dot)org/wiki/­Indo-Aryan_peoples

  • Nice try Natikuna, and thanks for the google information. Review your supplied information a little closer and you will find that the most current widely supported theory is that everyone on earth is from the same species and that is H. Sapien Sapien. H. erectus and H. Georgicus are considered to be the first hominids to LEAVE Africa into Europe, but none are living today. Nothing in your google suggestion says they were considered "white". Your suggestion is old science.

  • Guys, the Indo-Aryans came up from northern India at the end of the last ice age, through Iran and Iraq (which means Aryan) up through the Caucasus mountains and West into Europe. Most of the languages of Europe are called 'Indo-European' and are related to the languages of Iran, Afghanistan and northern India, which proves this theory.

  • @OAProject yeeeeees we all are from africa but they migrated to europe after passing caucasian region and that didn't happen in two or three years it took much mooore longeeer.

  • Let me tell you that Caucasian equals white because the first white man trace was found in Dmanisi, Georgia that date back to 1 800 000. Thus, Scientists believe that people from Georgia, Caucasus region is the place from which first Europeans = white people come from.

    You can check this just googling Dmanisi, Georgia

  • North Caucasia= Adygea, Karachay-Cherkessia, Kabardino-Balkaria, North Ossetia, Ingushetia, Chechnya, and Dagestan.

    Transcaucasia= Apkhazia, Georgia, South Ossetia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia. (actually, you can include Ajaria too.)

  • nice, as a Caucasian this is great! :D

  • also.....(semi related funny stuff): That "Aryan Nation" gang probably has no idea that their name implies that they are the "Nation of Iran".

  • the term was sort of redefined in the mid 1800s after archeologists & anthropologists were classifying different skull-structure types... but even that is misleading because while an African is not, an Aborigine is considered caucasian by that methodology. Any system is flawed...(skin color vs. bone structure?) Some asians would also be included. For what its worth, that is said to be a skull-type of that mountain region.

  • Losdruid - Thanks for your comment, but the "guy at 8:15" happens to be a very successful Mayor of a city in Southern California. I was happy to get an interview with him. I think It's important to remember that none of the people knew the questions when they sat down for the interview. This question and the whole project is not about calling people "retards" or anything like that. It is about information and language and how we use words that are arbitrary and undefined.

  • guy at 8.15 is retard but sartest from the rest because he sayes south osetia which is part of georgian mountineous region. Osetia as country does not exist
