Unfortunately for the nations, peoples and cultures that the West despises or looks down upon, the already negative but false perceptions of the "other" will keep for a while yet being splashed out to the world through the prism of colonialist mindset !!!
can we ask anyone in any other part of the world how they view Americans or jews … or is this just a one-way lens?
I loved the video and the accent of the narrator.
I had to watch this in English, have no clue why
This is simply genius! Show this to everybody!
What is the piece of music used in the background ?
The most awaking video I have ever seen.
Anyone know the word at 1.35?
Allah yerhamu ❤️
stereotypes have nothing to do with colonialism. There are stereotypes too among different westener countries (french a lovers/cooks, german engineers,English trade etc….). This video is complete BS. When people are isolated from each other they will produce stereotypes, end of story. No need to add victimhood bs to the mix
But so many stereotypes reflect something that is really there.
islam is a myth thats for sure
This is awsome .. RIP Edward said . ????
maybe acknowledge you have a barbaric culture an reform yourselves?

Vele Vele Al Jazeera! The stories we are told the history we are taught confine us as Africans, Arabs, Asians and Latin Americans in single primitive boxes while the truth could be no further this exemplified
even more in modern day Western Popular Culture. Thank Al Jazeera for being a voice to the oppressed and perhaps teach those still even if innocently ignorant.
The world will always remember u Edward Said for ur work on Orientalism .
