Pearl Harbor was our fault because we’re white?
And women deserve to get raped if they dress that way, huh?
Colonialism, the spreading of western culture, to India, Asia, Africa and South America brought order, prosperity and liberal values to backward cultures. So successful was colonialism, Japan wanted to become super colonialists and rule the world. It’s hard to overlook Japan’s ideology of racial supremacy as a driving force behind its imperial designs. This course, as described, is a willful perversion of history.
Whiteness was never responsible for the Japanese Empire hitting Pearl Harbor, just like the Jews were not responsible for Hitler doing what he did in Europe.
I love Japan btw but good grief.
Well, it was the 500 years of European colonial expansion that ended up conquering the world, or nearly so. This had a lot of complex effects. Vast parts of the world were conquered outright. One of the less typical effects was to prompt Japan to stop being a hermit kingdom and modernize, to become a great power, and give them ambitions to join the Europeans in the quest for foreign colonies. One could say that Japan pushed way too far.
Shows what they know, it was the germans who bombed pearl harbor
Colleges that teach some of this crap need to be out of business, because there are some good colleges that would take their place & teach useful things. Why do people spend good money & then put up with useless college courses/curriculum?
