In 1681, the Virginia Colony may have started using the term "White". But, in Maryland, they used the term "White" in 1638 according to Dr. Claude Anderson it was called the Doctrine of Exclusion. THE 1638 MARYLAND DOCTRINE OF EXCLUSION: The Maryland Doctrine of Exclusion was collectively written by the Maryland Colony Council in 1638, and states the following, “Neither the existing black population, their descendants, nor any other blacks shall be permitted to enjoy the fruits of White society.” I would guess that the Virginia Colony got their definition of White People from Maryland who used the term "White" first.

The same way you don't hear from opposition. Everybody is living in their own echo chamber and not only they like it that way, they are encouraged to do so. As an example it was so hilarious when people left twitter simply because it was bought by someone who may not adhere to radical leftist ideology. Why? because it might hurt their perfect left wing bubble.

Not enough people discuss this _essential_ topic... we need infinitely more people like yourself, Dr. Battalora and Jane Elliott! Thank you for all you do, Karen 🙏 As a light-skinned Arab-American, with African-American family, it's fascinating (read: truly delusional) to see how this identity of "whiteness" is given and taken away, depending on what environment I'm in, and whether people around me know I'm Arabic or not, and depending on my behavior... or to see as a little kid how my Arab-American grandfather disowned his own culture and embraced white supremacist ideology in an effort to white-wash his own identity because, as a child, he'd seen his very dark-skinned father experience racism and called awful racial slurs when he came to this country and my grandfather didn't want to experience similar treatment. Thankfully, when karma gave him black grandchildren, he understood he'd been wrong.

[@jonesameal1798]

And once Yakub’s 600-year “made man” entered the world, all of history took a devastating turn. Early signs of this were evident with the ancient Egyptians, who worried about a strange tribe of blue-eyed people they called Tamahu-“the created ones”-a clear allusion to their unnatural origins. The Tamahu had moved onto the edge of the desert and demonstrated a proclivity for trouble-making, foreshadowing a troubling modus operandi. The making of the white man

[@ethericgod]

The word ‘Black’ can be traced back to its proto Indo-European origins through the word ‘blac’ which meant pale, wan, colourless, or albino. ‘Blac’ was incorporated into Old French as Blanc, Italian and Spanish as Blanco, Bianca, Bianco, Bianchi. In Old English “blac” person meant fair; someone devoid of colour, similar to the word “blanc” which still means white or fair person. In Middle English the word was spelt as “blaec” same thing as the modern word “black”, only at that time, around 1051 AD, it still meant a fair skin, or so-called white person. The words “blacca” an Old/Middle English word still resonates with “blanke” the Dutch-Germanic term for white people of today. It was not till the sixteenth century that the semantic broadening of black occured- both figurative connotations as well as literal. From ‘blac, blake, bleaken, blaccen’ and their literal meaning ‘to bleach out or make white, blond or pale’ came the figurative meaning ‘to stain someones reputation, or defame’ or darken. Literally “blac” by that time came to mean night-like colour, dark. One can say a very dramatic shift indeed. It was also the era, when the Vandals and the Goths were busy writing themselves into history and writing out the European Mauros (melan-chros or melanin people) out of history

​@@KarenHunterShow this ignored discussion is the reason black women are the enemy right now. They are being uplifted above black man in career opportunity black man is designed to control stuff run stuff own stuff we are not workers 😂 but as she stated until this day a black man cant do those things. So we get left behind the ones of us who are built to be workers make it in white conformeity. 90% of us isnt built for conforming. So only the talented 10th is able to make it in this climate. White men are sacrificed here and there to make it seem like we equal. Im a free negro periodt. Thats why im homeless every time I do anything it dont last long when I buy a car it dont last long. Their racism has upgraded to "technology" and "contracts" to keep moving the bar away or to keep us impovrished. Its alot of us sick and mentally ill bcuz of the technology they gave away what they been doing on two movies Get Away and the netflix series Lovecraft Country..white ppl dont really have they are just foot soilders for sum Aliens called reptilians nobody wants to go that far with it. We just keep talkin about blk n white issues but whose given whites the means to have technology, machines, which is basically "magic" whose given them that to rule over us???

Hello Professor Hunter. Have you read a book titled "War against all Puerto Ricans"? written by Nelson A Denis it is a detailed history of how the United States has treated the island since the Spanish American War. I happened upon this book because I wanted to get a better picture on the pros and cons of Puerto Rican statehood. While I did not get that info ( I am halfway through the book) , I was not prepared for what I got. I think if you have not read it you would be utterly shocked ( maybe not) at what the United States is capable of.

[@karenl7786]

Really appreciate this conversation with Dr. Battalora. What I appreciate even more is that she does not shrink from the reality of racism and embrace of whiteness as a conscious choice. It's admirable, Prof Hunter, that you gave her the potential out of her grandparents being nice people who just didn't know better. We have got to stop defaulting to that; it's almost more harmful than assuming the racist stance. As a Chicagoan, trust me her Teamster grandfather chose racism and all of its consequences every single day. It's equally clear she understands this. We should as well.

Interesting dialogue on Bacon's Rebellion, which seemed be an uprising from members of the criminal enterprise (Nathaniel Bacon chief among them), including the shortsighted, landless indentured servants - who comprised both Whites and Africans - who in turn slaughtered the Indigenous people for their land. Part two of the rebellion seemed to be the metropole (Britain) putting a stop to these ravenous colonists - including the misled and ill-advised indentured servants. In sum, Bacon and others thought incorrectly about who was really in charge of the criminal enterprise.

Very interesting insight from the guest.

[@spikes2023]

If we assume that a hypothetical Utopia existed before the concept of "whiteness" was invented, what were the criteria that led to black people being specifically chosen as scapegoats? It seems unlikely that this was a random choice and more likely that it was part of a strategy of divide and rule, as suggested by Dr. However, it is unclear what the discriminatory criteria were unless the concept of whiteness already existed and was only reinforced later for profit.

The entire issue of race makes me sick to my stomach, and its not just race. I live in Australia, and I walk down the street and there are homeless people with cardboard signs telling their story how they ended up on the street. They can't get benefits unless they have bank accounts, and they can't get bank accounts with out an address, which is bollocks of course, they just don't want to pay them. Many have mental health problems, and our mental health sector is almost exclusively private, and the practitioners lack expertise and empathy. A study was done here back in 2014, and it found you were likely to end up worse after engaging mental health services. Indigenous people are treated worse than cattle. They are pushed out of the cities and live in rural shantie towns where they are exploited by mining companies as cheap labor. But it gets worse. The government want to minimize the money allocated for essential services, and so instead of benefits paid in cash, they are allocated cards and the funds are put into the bank and they draw what they need from the fund. However there are only a few places where they have the hole in the wall machines where you can withdraw the funds, that forces them to move nearer the cash points, that just happen to be close to the mining zones. This still happens because white people are full of shit in this country. They will walk by the homeless, the indigenous problem is out of site and out of mind. But they join protests for Julian Assange, not because his white, because they seen to be doing something, its about their ego's. Suicide help line is staffed by volunteers because the government are not fulfilling their social responsibility. What resources can suicide lifeline offer? Phone counselling. I rang once as an exercise, and after talking to a counsellor about what I could do about my circumstance, and the answer was nothing. So, the call ended, with the "so called" councillor accepting the fact that I was likely to suicide. A report was released recently by two economic professors who did an investigation into how money and profits were generated in Australia and who benefitted. The studied found that 80% of profits were generated by back door deals with government, mining companies and real estate developers.......straight out theft. There are no shortage of funds, there are enough funds to provide free universal health care and education for all. Will the white majority do anything about his, as long as they are still doing OK?

This is great information.. this would be an incredible preface to American history courses (even in elementary school) that cover colonialism and slavery.. I can only imagine how much less awkward/destructive things are when you know the idea of “race” sham at the outset.. At the same time.. shouldn’t this be our prompt to give up classifying people as “black” or “white” right now? As in, even in this comment section? When I listen to this discussion, it reminds me more and more of substance abuse and addiction.. and the people subscribing to false superiority and false inferiority as addicts.. so maybe we should recognize that even though people’s addiction hurts us as their loved ones (and it’s important to recognize that we ALL do love each other at our core), we have to understand it as an addiction and approach it accordingly.. If this was an attempt at divide and conquer, then why still play into it?? It’s challenging to kick an addiction.. but I think we can all do it.. because whether people fall on the superiority or inferiority side of the coin, both erode the soul.. it’s interesting reading the suggestions on how to approach an addict.. and I see some tools that can be useful in this context (be clear and up front, give them space to respond, don’t ignore or enable the behavior, don’t blame them or yourself, etc. etc.).. And one of the points was to educate yourself.. and this video is a great tool in that respect.. i never want to be soft on people.. I just want productivity towards an actual, defined GOAL.. demonizing people won’t get us there (see: crack epidemic).. neither will enabling.. but maybe getting at the root (as described in this video) can get get the job done or at least help on the road to recovery.. Thanks for the valuable information!!
