Thank you for watching!

I have such immense admiration for Jordan Peterson and his incredible intellect. His eloquence and thoroughness are truly captivating, even if his speeches tend to be a bit long-winded. It's fascinating to witness his mind in action. However, there are moments that give me pause. It's not so much his reverence for "Western Civilization" or Greek contributions, but rather his portrayal of them as if they're entirely novel and exclusively European. It's disappointing to see this gap in his understanding. Is he aware of the rich heritage from civilizations like Kemet, which laid the foundation for so much of what we celebrate today? Kemet was the mother and Father of Civilization, Science, Philosohy and religion. The Dogan people understood the celestial bodies in their entirety 1000s of years ago. Or how Andalusia saved Europe from its barbsrianism and ushered in the Renaissance. The wisdom passed down from ancient times, the cross-cultural exchanges that shaped history? I wonder if he's explored these narratives, delved into the works of scholars like Dr. Cheikh Anta Diop. Perhaps it could enrich his message and offer a more nuanced perspective on the past. After all, his brilliance deserves nothing less than an accurate portrayal of history.

🏛️I consider western civilization the Mediterranean region, Greek and Roman Empire, their democratic politics🗳️, Roman Catholic religion⛪, and Latin language🗣️. The countries that kept those traits like Spain, France, Italy and Potugal. Finally the countries that were colonized by these western world countries in Latin America.
🇪🇸🇫🇷🇮🇹🇵🇹⤵️


Other European countries like England, , Germany, etc northern European countries, are secondary western civilization because they basically adopted mostly from Mediterranean civilizations, they write in Latin script but not speak a Latin based language they, practice Christianity but not Catholicism and they adopted Greek democracy. I dont consider countries that dont use Latin or Greek script as western civilization, like Russia and Ukraine for the exception of Ireland which practice Catholicism, write in Latin script and are a democracy, they just lack Mediterranean culture

🌎In the Amerias, Latin America was colonized first1️⃣ and thus has been a western civilization region longer than U.S, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, which were colonized later 🌏

White doesn't equal western civilization, because the Roman Empire was a diverse Empire unlike northern Europe
