While Goodall received her PhD in the 1960s, it was not until the 2000s that Ugandan Emily Otali became the first African woman to complete a PhD on chimpanzee behavior. The networks that facilitated European and North Americans researchers impeded the same opportunities for Africans (9/10)

What the narrative leaves out is the contributions of the local Tanzanians who assisted and facilitated Goodall's early research, as well as preceding and concurrent research. Nat Geo created a story about a lone white woman alone with chimpanzees, erasing the Africans that were beside her (3/10)

White westerners think resistance is some disney or hollywood series. It is not. You either fight tooth and nail, or the occupation will murder you and your whole family! When white people resist occupation "by any means necessary", then it's okay. But when nonwhite people do it, they're "evil."
