Animal and human languages - David Attenborough's 1973 Christmas Lectures 5/5

[@simonblynch]

Designed for kids, like 50 years ago, but so much more valuable than 95% of 'science' content on KZbin...

Yeah, I loved it. He is fun first. Also, urges curiosity before providing answers

I was only talking about David a couple of days ago, maybe thats why i got recommended this video. Marvelous man!

Very racist. Its only a matter of time before this institution goes down for such a demeaning tone deaf lecture. I have enjoyed royal institute but now I feel bad for watching other royal institute videos, but you will not realise it, as usual, you will realise it too late when cnn is airing it & their are calls to have some people fired.

And that was, folks, 1973. Imagine how much more science has uncovered by now.

That clip of the tribe was absolutely fascinating ❤

[@rnmgroupofcompanies7114]

Very small but deep disrespectful bits, sad all the knowledge will be lost because of horrible undertones.

Animal 'and' Human languages? Shoddy title from such a well respected institution. There's no such thing as Humans AND Animals. There is only Humans ARE Animals. We are mammals and a species of Great Ape.

I'm very interested in why he never stresses seeing modern ppl he says European or white is this an admittance that white ppl are new so showing them a dark skin person won't shock them why because it's normal on earth the only thing that can shock an original person is a new type of person a white person smh someone tell me another interpretation of this

Try not to overthink. You appear to be looking for conflict.

[@rnmgroupofcompanies7114]

Very offensive lecture. Royal Institute has made a growing section of people that usually enjoy RI feel very uncomfortable. I wish they editted it for sensitivity of modern times.

[@rnmgroupofcompanies7114]

​@@godfreypigottyou are part of the problem with new society. This is offensive. A small section has caused rot in the whole video. Woke up on Sunday to enjoy my royal institute, played it infront of my friends & I felt deeply ashamed. It is very unexpected ot RI bet someone new on the job posted this trash.

[@godfreypigott]

@@rnmgroupofcompanies7114 Yet you are incapable of explaining what is "offensive" about it. Apparently I am expected to guess.

[@RandomNullpointer]

It's plain and simple; there are people of different colors. The people in that tribe have not previously seen a person of such a different color. We cool now? BTW, this reminds me of how in Star Trek they introduced a pale white Klingon to demonstrate a point...
