Join us on Zoom for another Salon lecture on "Early Human Migrations: Discrediting the Myth of Purity from both a Historical and Scientific Perspective" for Ipso Facto by Dr. James Rietveld Thursday, September 12, 8 pm. Pay What You Wish: www.eventbrite.com/e/954584868037 So often we focus upon what divides us as humans rather than what unites us, buying into the illusion that we are to be categorized by race or ethnic group, when we are all very much the same, all humans arriving out of Africa, gradually spreading across the globe. About two million years ago, humans in the form of Homo erectus migrated out of Africa. Next, Homo heidelbergensis emerged out of Africa, reaching Europe in about 600,000 BCE, the likely origins for both the Neanderthals and Homo sapiens, the latter modern humans. Rather than staying in isolation, Homo sapiens migrated to wherever they deemed best for survival for climate and food sources, and, met other humans along the way, with who we readily mixed, including archaic humans groups such as Neanderthals and Denisovans. When it comes to our DNA, there is no such thing as genetic purity, and one group of Homo sapiens were not more advanced than others according to archaeological records. Homo Sapiens continued to spread over the entire globe, with isolation virtually impossible as one group migrated and mixed with the other, this includes Europe, one of the most mixed areas of all with the idea of purity of race in this region, as advocated by some even recently, being a complete fabrication based upon prejudice and ignorance. Come listen to a talk that will make us realize there are no pure breeds when it comes to humanity, for we are just a bunch of mutts from the perspective of history!This lecture will be posted on the Dr. James Rietveld Salon Lecture You Tube channel, where you can also watch previous lectures: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jamesrietveldsalonlectu2903?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1deliIGwpr9dPrGeHVWxdeOPe2d-Uh7GXzEKHnrWnG_VQks4MUHOlesK0_aem_ZmFrZWR1bW15MTZieXRlcw" title="https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jamesrietveldsalonlectu2903?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1deliIGwpr9dPrGeHVWxdeOPe2d-Uh7GXzEKHnrWnG_VQks4MUHOlesK0_aem_ZmFrZWR1bW15MTZieXRlcw" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jamesrietveldsalonlectu2903</a> Dr. James Rietveld is a professor at CSU, Fullerton and Cal Poly Pomona, CA of History, Anthropology, Religion with a PHD from Claremont School of Religion, is author of two books, and can be seen on History channel's "Crazy Rich Ancients."
