Here are some questions I need answered: Why do you think Mann told the story of his 8th grade history textbook? What are the 3 key differences between modern scholarship and older scholarship on the Americas before Columbus? What was Tenochtitlan? How does Mann describe it? How does Mann describe indigenous civilizations pre-Columbus? How does Mann explain the difference between archeological maps and historical maps? What are his criticisms? Describe the picture Mann says should have been in his textbook. What is the Columbian Exchange (Alfred Crosby)? Why was it significant? Study The Interior of a Barn with People and Animals. Compare it to the Powahatan longhouse. A. What is similar? Key differences? What role did disease play in the Columbian Exchange and European colonization in the Americas? How did Indians on the East Coast manipulate their landscape and to what end? How did Europeans change the landscape? What was the Little Ice Age? How is that connected to the Columbian Exchange? (Pause 16:33) How does Mann make the case for Columbus as the origin of the Age of Globalization? Explain the significance of Potosi. Before Potosi, why was it difficult for Europeans to trade with Asia? Describe the world united by commerce, which Mann visually presents and describes. Pause to draw out and explain. According to Mann, how should we think about globalization? How did the potato change the world? How did globalization account for the potato famine in the 1840s? How did globalization alter Chinese history? How did the ecological changes contribute to China’s weakness by the 19th century? What are the consequences of the spread of malaria? Specifically, regarding slavery? When did Europeans become a real demographic presence on the continent? (min. 39) According to Mann, how should we think about the Age of Discovery/Exploration/Encounter? Mann highlights trade and the environment, but what themes are missing from his discussion? Why is it difficult to categorize globalization as either good or bad? Mann takes shots at China in this talk. What do we make of this? How do we deal with scholars whose work is intellectually sound but they say things that aren’t respectful? Dismiss? Address?

It sound like the slash and burn method they used in north america might be what we in Finland call deciduous forest lash and burn. When you slash and burn forest you have to let the trees go back, so that you get nutrients etc back. to the ground. Maybe the "parks" where just forest that waited to be old enough to be slash and burned again. After the you plant the crops what needs the most nutrients and next crop is what needs less. Normally you could harvest three crops, after that the nutrient level is was so low that you had let the forest grow back and wait about 30-40 years to do the slash and burn again. Still you could get up to 10 times more crops that if you would make just normal field and whit less work. Old finnish slah and burn video from 1937 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eH60lIurgL6dpNE

@@stanprager I was just reinforcing his point. I think its in the first chapter of 1491 that Mann makes the claim that he is not being politically correct. But then he excludes facts that might make the indigenous appear more crude than he is while the White man is barbaric and unclean, saving his snot in a rag in his pocket. Musk has nothing to do with this, this isn't X. How do you feel about most of the central and south American monuments being completely rebuilt fabrications disguised as ancient monuments? Is that science? Or is that state funded propaganda for tourist money? Look at the before and after photos of place like Teotihuacan. Complete fabrications. Some of this just seams like Romanized revisionism, which is exactly what Mann claims to be against.

I'm amused that one would contend that a people as advanced as Mann suggests would have as a motivation for burning their forested areas the desire to sneak up on their prey in their moccasins. And putting the lie to burning in the forests by pointing to lots of old trees also indicate one who didn't read the book- small low fires don't kill mature trees. Two quick points. One- sailors in the 1500s commented on the fires visible and the ash raining down in burning season; two- early European settlers/explorers commented on the large percentage of nut trees in the "primeval" forests. The "Indians" apparently practiced "agro-forestry," promoting the trees they wanted.

13:40 Killing the insects was a byproduct and so was new vegetation. The real reason they burned the forest was to make it possible to silently walk, or stalk, up to prey animals. It was beneficial to have new growth to lure the animals in, and to kill the insects, but that was not why these hunters burned the leaf litter. Leaf litter is loud under foot, and every animal can hear you coming, if you eliminate the leaf litter then you can hunt better in a spot in stalk scenario.

Advice about indigenous communities. There is generally three demographics: the traditionals holding on to what’s survived the genocide, the colonized and assimilated to western life (biggest group), and then there is the group who Float between the first two. So when you want ancestral knowledge, the traditionals are the only group that can give that, they are the keepers of the knowledge. Additionally, just one man is not the representative of the whole tribe of people and if you aren’t talking to women then your research is sorely incomplete and definitely limited by western ideology.

Slavery. Isn't it the most obnoxious notion? Was it really less noxious several centuries ago? I don't think so. People sacrifice their moral principles for economic gain. My grandmother was born in 1901. So, let's say her grandparents were born in 1800. That means slavery was alive and kicking with the entire disgusting apparatus only 5 generations ago. How odd to consider that cultural evolution on the one hand produces Bach, for example, and on the other produces slavery.

What are you saying bro? He is comparing Pre-Columbian America which includes both North and South America. His point wasn't to make a "strawman argument" about how many Native Americans there were, but rather to show the viewer that the way Native Americans (AMERICANS WITH AND S MEANING NORTH AND SOUTH) weren't these primitive, wild, savage people that history books and Europeans made them out to be. He's literally using Tenochtitlan and several, huge mound cities to show that these people were advanced, intelligent, and urbanised. His whole point isn't about population in that segment, it's about correcting the views of history books you nitiwt.
