Turks are not Arabs or Mongols.

In my previous posts, I have written about Turkey and its history. The following is a 6 minutes video I would like to share with you. It will help to know the Turks better.

Turks are often mistaken for Middle Eastern and Arab; these two groups have nothing in common but  Islam. Otherwise, they couldn't be more different. The Turks ethnically range from Caucasian to Asian to Black. Yes, there are black Turks.
One thing you will not learn in your classroom is the 6 Turkic Empire spending over 2000 years.

This video is just a quick answer to the question, "Who are the Turks" it is now up to you to find out more.

Otherwise, would you want to be the one to clean up the mess that Doomsday will leave behind? Would you want to survive Doomsday? Leave your comment: The Mayans Never Predicted the Doomsday Before continuing, it's worth emphasizing that this mesoamerican calendar (used by several cultures -- including the Maya -- in Central and South America before European colonization) does not predict an apocalypse. It never did, despite what the movie "2012" told us . The Mayan civilization existed from 250-900 A.D. in the current geographical location of southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador,  and some of Honduras. Archaeologists...

Propaganda versus News on Social Media

  Propaganda versus News on Social Media. Introduction Social media has become a ubiquitous part of our lives, connecting us with people, information, and entertainment.

How can we tell the difference between news and propaganda on social media? What are the impacts of social media on our society, politics, economy, and mental health?  I will explore these questions and suggest ways to improve our media literacy and critical thinking skills.
