I'm so sorry for all the hate here in the comments. I'm really tired of the way we teach history. Written history is not less biased, more true, or even harder to change over time than oral histories. I've really appreciated the chance to follow this series and expand my perspective and learn more. 😊

'Its about not being afraid to try' that sums up the indigenous effort through survival as theybgot to cope with different environmental elements

People commenting shit like “they didn’t even keep records or write” like first of all, I’m not sure that is universally true for all indigenous groups about the writing as a whole and second, you don’t need writing to keep records. People have come up with all kinds of intricate ways of not only keeping track of information but also communicating that effectively to others throughout global human history.

I like it, it's like citizen science for 20, 000 years. Observational science is still science.

Terrance Howard has also engaged with the community and he ain't indigenous. At least I don't think he is. So my question to you is, are contributions from non native scientists welcome in indigenous sciences? If so, could I contributed my homunculus creation.
