A misconception that I had before taking this class and I feel like people have as well is where we originated from. I can say I’m polish and dutch because my great-grandparents are from Poland and Holland. I look northern European with fair skin, blue eyes, and blonde hair. BUT before taking this class I would have never known that long ago my ancestors weren’t in northern Europe. Someone else in the class mentioned the class assignment where we listened to the audio lecture and thats where I learned we all originated from Africa. I know this is a common misconception because right after listening to that lecture I told my dad and he said “I don’t think so.” A consequence of this misconception is ignorance of not believing what scientist have proven correctly.

I think one common misconception people have is the way that many are okay with the idea of our ancestors being less smart and advance than us. But then most people really don’t know where their ancestors come from geographically which makes us seem a little less smart as we claim to be. I feel like the only consequence that this gives back is the ignorance of speaking but not knowing where things came about originally but just going off of assumptions we picture in our head.
