Before we get started with Unit 02, I wanted to check in how the course is progressing for you so far. Now that we've got one unit under our belt, how is online learning treating you?

I've studied #whitesupremacism briefly. The key foundation of white supremacist arguments is that Africa is not as developed as other nations, indicating alleged IQ or mental deficiencies. I'm going to show how this approach can easily be refuted.
1st counterargument: Europeans & Christians themselves were not generally advanced in math/science until their exposure to Islamic & Asian scholars. In fact, it's likely European navigators, including V. da Gama, used/stole Chinese maps from Zheng He before succeeding.
2nd counter: it's clear societies advanced at different rates based on their ability to engage other continents. Since all knowledge is incremental, IQ & other "racial" tests (i.e., scientific progress) may simply measure who first mastered shipbuilding/navigation, then weapons.
