Journey Of Man A Genetic Odyssey (PBS)

Furthermore, they're presenting the old story of the migration into the Americas, despite mounting evidence that this particular story is just that, a single story, and there are other stories to be told.

There is a definite Marxist, anti-Western mantra in Western academia.

[DarthRacist]

This is inane. I don't descend from Australian Aboriginals. Period.

[DarthRacist]

This 'documentary' makes far too many assumptions. Assumptions that will be disproven. Man's evolution was more varied and complex than a simple, "We all came out of Africa 50,000 years ago."

[DarthRacist]

Evolution implies difference. Though it's one species, this species has many variations. Evolution is change based on the stress of existence, of environment. Therefore, genes change.

[illywacker1]

I love it how certain ethnic groups think they are more special than others because their god made them and then genetic science prooves otherwise.

[PsychedelicRoadshow]

Although I have no formal scientific training, it seems to me that finding just one man in the southern tip of India with an ancient African Y marker & then to definitively claim that "you found a missing link" as opposed to possibly "a romantic affair several generations prior" does not appear to be sound science.

Also, the ceiling cave etching in France could have been done with an extension stick/tool or merely sitting/standing on another one's shoulders???

Insight and/or criticism now open.

[troublemakir]

@PsychedelicRoadshow Sure they could have made the etching that way but why? That's a very difficult way to do it for no real purpose.

So Sickening if you're a KKK Pansy

[Konev1897]

And the mandatory politically correct propaganda lie at the end "there are no races, we are all Africans, the same"! Who takes this crap seriously? As anyone can see and test scientifically, genetically, yes there are distinct human races in the human species. Races differ in looks, body and bone structure, behavior, brain size, IQ (etc.); just as evolution would predict. Lighter Asians and Whites at the 'top', darker Indians, Mexicans and Blacks at the 'bottom'. See my channel (e.g.).

[USERNAMEfieldempty]

*whiny voice* but none of this is true! It's just propaganda and specualtion! There's no evidence! You can't prove it! Science actually shows we didn't evolve! Look! I'm putting my fingers in my ears, that PROVES you're wrong!

[adamclark1972uk]

Nearly two hours long and it doesn't really teach us anything we didn't already know. Yes we're all related. Yes we all came from Africa originally if you go back far enough. That man in central Asia's ancestor was the ancestor of Europeans, Chukchi and Native Americans? Well guess what, my distant ancestor was the ancestor of all those peoples too, and so was yours. What a load of nothing!

[MrJudas666666]

@adamclark1972uk as if you always new that

[Thinkdeep420]

SCIENCE RULES!!!!

[watchWorld100]

we have people here in the philippines who look like africans too, the aetas. they have been isolated for thousand of years and they look like africans. here is the link....

i would be happier if they let us see the faces of the interpreters. without them, it would be impossible to communicate with the people they met.. hence this video would not be complete.

[AscendingParadigm]

Science reveals the oneness of humanity with, and history of, all living things, better than any other means.

This video is incredible. Thanks for sharing.

[adrumzzify]

Absolutely incredible. I enjoy sharing this very year with all of you. What an incredible time to live, in all of earth's history.

[MrJujitsu62]

Wow ! I don't know what to say ! This guy says it all .

[dulgrani]

Anyone have an issue with stating that "we evolved from apes" @ 7:26 ? Evolution teaches that came from a common ancestor not FROM apes. correct me if I'm wrong. :)

[AscendingParadigm]

@dulgrani Our common ancestor with the other great apes, was an ape.

Wiki: Timeline of human evolution

[geniusrepairman1]

@dulgrani All Great Apes and humans evolved from a common ancestor which was an "ape" but not of any current species. The ancestral offspring of this ape broke away from other apes (which ultimately became the gibbons) to evolve eventually into the chimpanzees, humans, gorillas etc we see today. Does this clear things up?

[zencat999]

thanx so much for reposting this...I was able to download it from before and have used it. I have felt like this all my life and now there is real proof. thanx fellow humans for giving us ALL back our true identity.

one place: earth

one race: human

I got it a long time ago.

cheers&aloha

[skinnyjohnsen]

I have a problem with this idea of tracking your ancestors by the y-gene or the mitochondria line (Mother to mother down to you); If you go back only to your 16 great great grandparents, the Y-gene and the mitochondria lines only tell you about 2 of them. The other 14 make up the bulk of your genes, but you just cant trace it.

How about knowing nothing apart from 2 out of your 2 million ancestors only 20 generations back ;-/

[haz020190]

@skinnyjohnson it actually only gives you 1 of 16. your great great grandmother. I know it disregards all the other ancestral lines that males add to your ancestry, but its a solid line of mother to mother to mother, of which it is arguable that in older times when people didnt travel much (unless they were shipped off as slaves) most of these extra lines would be in the same area anyway. i know its not all encompassing, but at least its part of your picture

[kshackleton]

Clicks ancestral? No other language groups has them....ordinarily, we see ancestral forms as the most widespread in the modern populations. The fact that the Koi-San are the only group with clicks indicates to me that clicks evolved in their languages after their ancestors separated from the other modern human populations.

[Campineiroamericano]

This is a must see for everyone. It is humbling to know that we are all related. Too bad there are many that don't recognize that.

[itsasin1969]

Nobody likes to hear that their creation story is a myth.

[drnovikov]

OMG, that woman is a very bad translator :-) She had translated almost nothing to Niyazov.

[Dutvutan]

Fantastic, it's like a reindeer in here!

[BigDwarren]

Great video.

[saxmanchiro]

I show this docu to every single class I teach, since it came out. Three yrs ago, we even sent a student's DNA off to their lab for analysis and her map of ancestral migration came back. Being a decendant of slaves brought to the US, her map was quite simple, only showing a small line from eastern to west coast of Africa. We were going to send DNA from a student who said she had Cherokee blood. That would have been interesting to study. Thanks for downloading this. Love science.

[Konev1897]

@saxmanchiro Then correct the politically correct, cultural marxist, propaganda lie at the end! Races = human populations are real, they differ, they are better/worse in numerous ways (e.g. IQ, brain size, behavior, achievement), and this matters. And that multiculturalism=multiracialis­m=race mixing doesnt work, is destructive mostly to Whites and should be avoided at any cost. Geographic separation is the only way. Thank you.

[saxmanchiro]

@Konev1897 Holy Shit Batman, I think we found us a racist who didn't listen in Biology class.

[Konev1897]

@saxmanchiro Another anti-White (="anti-racist") indoctrinated by public 'school' propaganda who doesn't have a clue about biology nor anything else. Racism is natural, thats why races always prefer their own, and why multiracialism is destructive. "Anti-racists" are irresponsible useful idiots and/or ideological liars who want to help destroy Europeans like Neanderthals. Africa for Africans, Asia for Asia, Muslim countries for Muslims, European nations for everybody!

[saxmanchiro]

@Konev1897 In biology, the word 'race' is not used. When we have different heights/sizes, different melanin amounts(hair and skin colors), skull shapes, etc, we call these variants of a species. Tiny differences in the DNA give rise to these differences. I think we know who "doesn't have a clue about biology". When the gametes still work, and produce a fertile offspring, it is a species. Go back to school and this time listen.

[Konev1897]

@saxmanchiro Yes, typical way of defining the concept away, to justify White disappearance (genocide) "hey we are all the same, we bleed red, we are all atoms, so lets breed Whites out of existence and decrease their fertility rate so they gradually diminish". Race=Subspecies="Human population"=Variants of species, identified by frequency of alleles and genes, e.g. by genetic clustering maps. These can be identified by bone samples and dna. Tiny differences matter a lot. Click me!

[troublemakir]

what the hell are you talking about? Where did you learn your 'biology' ?

[j03y2fly]

7:28 human didn't evolve from apes, humans are still apes. Humans and apes come from a common ancestor. I hope he simply misspoke.

[yesimsandw1ch]

@j03y2fly This documentary can be a bit too hard to follow for someone who still has trouble coming to terms with our ancient African ancestors I think that they use the termenology for our ancestors in the far distant past as "apes", and as current humans as "primates", for the simple reason of word association. (Apes = Monkeys to them.) Think of the way they speak here as a transitional form of laymen language to help people understand the basics of evolution.

[theskepticalheretic]

@j03y2fly he really did neither. Humans did evolve from apes, and humans are still considered apes. There's no mis-statement.

[j03y2fly]

@theskepticalheretic How could we evolve from apes if we're still apes? The sentence in of itself is contradicting, which was the reason I acknowledged it in the first place.

[theskepticalheretic]

@j03y2fly you're asking how could a member of a species of ape evolve from another species of ape and still be an ape. It's not a contradictory sentence.

[j03y2fly]

@theskepticalheretic No, in the video at roughly 7:28 he was talking about where apes came from, that's an origin question regarding common ancestry, not evolution in a same species, which was the reason I pointed out he didn't mention that humans are still apes, and that all modern apes came from a common ancestor that wasn't consider an ape. Moreover, he could've went into more detail.

[puncheex]

@j03y2fly: The classification of apes, or hominoidea, is monophyletic; that means that all descendents are also apes. One doesn't evolve from a clade like that; rather, one evolves from one of the species that represented the clade 15 million years ago, but is no longer extant. Phylogenetically, we are all apes, primates, mammals, therapods, synapsids, amniotes, tetrapods, sarcopterygii, vertebrates, bilateria, eukaryotes, and about 20 others that I didn't mention.
