Student leave after being told they're from Africa
Texan students storm out after professor says we’re all of African descent
Quote:
Some Texas State University students in Dr. McGee’s Cultural Anthropology class left the lecture hall after he said in a lesson that all living people originated in Africa. As the exiting white students left the classroom, some remaining in class reportedly called after them, “Black Lives Matter.”
He is — as his credentials, years of research and general expertise would suggest — not wrong on the subject. The so-dubbed “out of Africa” theory is widely accepted as our definitive origins by the scientific community. The University of Cambridge’s Andrea Manica and his team spent years of research comparing thousands and human skulls as recently as 2007 to prove that, yup, we all originated solely in Africa.
“As a whole, I think the group is open-minded,” McGee said. “Understanding other peoples’ perspectives is a basic part of cultural anthropology.”
Idgi were they upset because he affirmed the existence of evolution or that he implied that white people do in fact share a common lineage with black people (gasp)? Both seem awfully unlikely.
I read the whole article but I still feel like I'm missing something.
I don't think they were SJWs. Although it's true that SJWs usually get angry when they talk about racial issues and a white person says something like "We're all Africans really".
This is ridiculous. It's scientific fact that all humans originated in Africa.

I cackled. A+trolling
This all reminds me of this racist white dude on some show who hated black people and then had a DNA result show that he was like 10% black. He was fuming
