*Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson issued a response to racists who compare Black people to monkeys, and he used former president Barack Obama as an example.
Speaking to VladTV, Tyson explained why white people look more like monkeys than Black people.
"I know you did an interview recently [about] the racist things people have said about Black people and monkeys and so forth," Vlad said. "But you said when you scientifically look at white people [you said] monkeys are hairy, and white people are the hairiest people…"
"On Earth," Tyson said, completing the host’s sentence.
When Vlad, who is white, admits, "I am really hairy," Tyson said he does not "shave at all," before pointing out that white people tend to have neck and chest hair.

"People say, ‘Well how about Obama? First Black President and he's got big ears.' He's exactly half-white," he said. "No doubt those big ears come from his mama! The point is, look how easy it is to be racist. And take a look at a chimpanzee's lips. They're razor thin, and we've got some very famous large-lipped black people … so they overlooked so much."

That season or series he did about the Cosmos, was full of inaccuracies and extrapolations of theories into hard and settle science. It was beautifully done, like a Hollywood starlet, but just as stupid.
Lol! He really wants to open that can of worms?
No gun fire, nothing vandalized. Maybe so.
The silly criticizing the silly.
I agree with him, Im quite sure that from an evolutionary stand point he is correct.
This means that the first primates we can really call humans were white. Everyone knows that Out of Africa is true.
This proves that white people were the original inhabitants of Africa and that they were displaced by murderous blacks stealing the white mans territory.
I want Africa back now and Im demanding reparations for my tribal brethren.
The one who flunked out of the University of Texas?
Tyson told Sagan he expected to get his Ph.D. in two months from the University of Texas but Tyson was either lying or mistaken. Tyson failed to get a Ph.D. at the University of Texas and his dissertation committee was dissolved, essentially flunking him out.Tyson was offended, but he liked basketball, so he signed up anyway. He also joined UT’s competitive dance, rowing, and wrestling teams—unusual activities for a PhD student. "I should've spent more time in the lab," Tyson admits, "but that wasn't me."
Columbia immediately picked him up, despite his lack of Ph.D. level credentials, handed him a doctorate, then Princeton hired him to direct the Hayden Planetarium.
He has no publications to speak of (minor junk published) and listening to him talk about ANYTHING science related it's clear he's only a cheerleader.
Columbia picking him up is not a surprise, given his father was a high ranking black-power type at NY City Hall.
An extensive investigation by The Federalist's Sean Davis reveals that Tyson has been engaging in serious intellectual fraud for years. And many so-called defenders of "science" remain in violent denial about this charlatan, who pretends to know more than just about everyone else in the world, but who really just makes up his own "facts" to feel important.
There used to be a lot more information out there about Tyson's Affirmative Action career but the links have been disappearing.
All my life Ive been told by blacks that black people cant swim and that swimming is a white thing. Theres the video, clearer evidence than any on bigfoot.
Using racism to oppose racism never works.
I have always seen deGrasse as an over educated idiot, not a scientific savant.
He’s right, whites and chimps have thin lips...
A lot do.
I have seen it personally. In some circles, the thinking is non Africans are monkey hybrids.
You know that's from a movie, right? Not a real video. It's from Rise of the Planet of the Apes from 2011.
Tell him to his hairy ear that he's an ape.
I hope you know how to climb down from the top of that tree. They throw logs for a reason.
IF he was an actual scientist, he’d know:
Human beings have the same amount of hair follicles on their skin as apes, but the hair is much less visible, often tiny, rarely longer than a millimeter.
Whites MIGHT have longer and darker skin hair, but Blacks have just as many on their skin, as do East Asians, Melanesians and Native Americans. We’re all humanly hairy.
I always thought he was a Twit
This guy is the most highly educated idiot in the Galaxy.
I took it to mean that he thinks that hairy, thin-lipped Chimps and Humans are both descended from Blacks.
Regards,
He’s an astrophysicist, but his knowledge is limitless.
Lmao... No but that was a classic!! Go Ahead!! Take it!!!
Those descended from neanderthals gave us written language, the Renaissance, electricity, the industrial revolution, and put a man on the moon. Meanwhile those with 100% homo sapien DNA couldn't figure out the wheel until Europeans gave it to them and would still be trying to decide which grass skirt to wear to the chief's party at his mud hut if not for other cultures imposing civilization upon them.
Btt!!
