Dr. Georgia Dunston, located in the Microbiology Department, began and ended with her introduction slide. She never reached the other slides in the power point. As I listened I felt more connected with her than the previous lecture due to her giving knowledge that wasn't scripted. The lecture was still organized and I would have picked this lecture before the original power point slide.
When I first heard Dr. Dunston speak the word genome I pulled out my phone and looked the work up. I figured it had something to do with genes, but I wanted to be sure. When I looked this word up I came with the sum of all information contained in DNA for any living things. Dr. Dunston mentioned genome holds knowledge and that human genome holds energy. The energy disturbance tells us our destiny. This lecture lead me to understand that everyone contains their own genome, which also make people unique in their own way. She also mentioned that all people derived from Africa stating that it was the motherland. This point goes back to my blog from last week of stating more this was created in Africa than people are lead to believe. Another thing she mentioned that I touched on last week was blacks within history not knowing their history, which makes it difficult to obtain the truth of their own people. As I watched a clip of a video by Shakbeezy, for a different course, he also stated that the Europeans erased African memory, suppressed African culture, taught white supremacy and controlled institutional socialization to prevent African from educating their children from sending their messages through media. This video actually helped me to understand this lecture so much more. Thank you Dr. Georgia Dunston.
