True they did - at least over the past 400 years. But they wreaked so much destruction, sorrow, and confusion on so many other cultures/races/populations in so called "advancing civilization" that they have as much to be blamed for as to be celebrated for. As is true of life, all things will eventually come to and end. In this case, it is the unvetted celebration of the WM that has gone for the past 400 years. It's 2018 now and the covers have been pulled back exposing all of your dirty deeds to the light. Welcome to the world you've created.

Yes yes...everyone must bow and repent before the church of social justice, or face excommunication!

I saw this...really just pathetic. The whole place needs to be taken in on a 5150.

They should do an issue about how they sent their entire editorial staff on the adventure of a lifetime - the left's White Guilt Safari.

This special issue could feature a photo essay of kucks:

-in their natural habitat (an Ikea chair)
-wearing their native garb (a hoodie and shapeless unisex - excuse me, "non-binary" cargo pants from H&M)
-consuming an indigenous beverage (something frothy with a cinnamon design on the top to aid them in their spiritual quest- to become an androgynous Soy Boy)

It was funny to me at the time, but sickening to me now.
So you think they were too stupid to know what they were doing. They did not have to allow outsiders in at all. They were sharing a part of their culture with this stranger and he was reacting like a normal western guy would to have topless women dancing around him. It wasn't racist.

Lefties want lies, fakery and cover ups because the truth and reality is not politically correct according to their standards.

IMO...anyone that says that about an institution that has the integrity to right previous misconceptions and wrongs is the "sick" one. It just stands to reason.

This obsession with race due to white guilt, and wrongs of the past is bordering on the insane. It just is.

Your interpretation of why National Geographic has owned up to this is bizarre as is your resentment of it.

She should consider hiring Rachel Dolezal.
