Unless the lions produce their own historians, the story of the hunt will glorify only the hunter.

Bravo Al Jazeera English! It is very excellent idea to use animation for explanation of the serious and important issues! Easy to understand for kids and ministers!

This type of videos is so classy and informative yet not hateful, Aljazeera I love you

Thank you for this video. Edward Said always inspires me

Really well done in a few minutes and very clearly describes the main premise of his book which every history teacher should be obliged to read

this art style is absolutely mesmerizing

the video easily reaches the heart of Orientalism

It changes my thoughts totally

Thank you Al Jazeera for your magnificient job. I use this video at class for my students every year. Grateful for the unvaluable legacy of Edward Said

The world will always remember u Edward Said for ur work on Orientalism . U woke us up straight .

Amazing video!! I loved this message and how profound it is.

Beautiful animation. From the message to the art.

I love this! this should be available in more languages at least the subtitles

The music feeds our stereotypes.

This is simply genius! Show this to everybody!

Great video, thanks a lot

beautiful, thank you!

the best two and half video on yutube thank you for making good video!

This is a great video.

currently my favorite video on the internet.

Very well organized video.

Good journalism

This is amazing

Wow, this was powerful and so simply put at the same time! I wish this was displayed in whole Europe..

I've been too lazy to read the actual book but this video gave awesome insight into the main motif.

Edward Said was like The Clash

I loved the video and the accent of the narrator.

I learned about Edward Said during my Master's in Journalism and his views are so true. Only better articulated

good discussion

For those looking for its background music. It is on Soundcloud, so just search Edward Said Orientalism there.

Watching this in 2023 where this is now abundantly clear.

The most awaking video I have ever seen.

Can someone share what music is this?? Who is the artist or composer?

What is the piece of music used in the background ?

Where I can find Russian version?

Thank you for trying to undo the damage perpetrated by a select few who seem to dominate the Western media landscape economically and politically... Funny they never like it when THEY are stereotyped, why should anyone else?

what is the music in the background ??

Can anyone tell me the name of the music used?

01:54 - so al-jazeera already knew the reality of Modi back in 2017. wow, good work al-jazeera!

God bless.

Nice design

Can I have the music of the video ? Thanks in advance!

Please, what the song in the back? i'VE BEEN LOOKING for it for sooo long. Thanks!

لازم تعيدون نشر هالمقطع عالقناة في ظل هالظروف

Why do they act like these places don't do the same thing to us??

I click anything Edward Said

Said's orient is the foremost an idea

His tory, The victor of the War. Gets to tell the story.

Soy Méxicano aborrezco el futbol, no soy un dealer, y no vivo en una dictadura publica al menos (una de tres aun les queda mucho que aprender)

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 !!!

Anyone know the word at 1.35?

Anyone else got bored and typed "orientalism" in the search bar?

1:34 Jokes on you! Even England, and Scandinavia were called barbarians. (And also Germany, but we're not going to go on from here.)

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:02 🌍 *Colonial representations of the Orient lacked self-representation, relying on Orientalists' interpretations to be deemed credible.* 00:40 📚 *Colonialism propagated through cultural forms like literature and anthropology, shaping a distorted view of the 'East' as exotic, sensual, and depraved.* 01:09 📰 *Modern narratives continue the 'Us' versus 'them' dichotomy, perpetuating stereotypes portraying Africans, Latin Americans, Arabs, and Asians in limited, often negative roles.* 01:36 🎭 *'Orientalism' acts as a lens through which media stereotypes can be recognized, dismantled, and myths unlearned.* Made with HARPA AI

But this is natural. They had no unified lens through which to tell their history like Europe. They had multiple theories of reality...

😎✌🏽

Someone enlighten me. I get what is saying in the video but not why it(orientalism and the problems addressed as the examples in Said's orientalism) is so important and such an issue. I mean I understand it is not right, but I think not everyone can know everything in the world, that stereotypes will just always exist and gonna be a problem and people just need to be more educated and aware of it.

we should do occidentalism.... swedes and whatever and americans are the same people

Im on the fence about this... I agree and disagree. IF the the world outside the west does NOT suck then why are all these people risking their lives to come here?

But he never explained HOW islamic colonialist works.

:O

Allah yerhamu ❤️

Making a video against orientalism, yet using it in its music and writing style.

Humans are a species one race many personalities good and bad 🐱

But so many stereotypes reflect something that is really there.

I had to watch this in English, have no clue why

Okay Middle East! What you have for west beside blood and money?

Abonniert MeyMeyMan. Er macht auch so gute Videos wie das hier.

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?

But the thing about stereotypes is that they are always based on truth

All these so called "stereotypes" are well justified though.

@1:51 it shows an 'asian' as software engineer and a Hindu as religious fanatics!! I have never seen West stereotyping Indians as 'religious fanatics' while software engineering field is flooded with Hindu Indians. So, the question is - why did Al Ajazeera intentionally do it? Answer lies in Islam and the hatred/superiority complex Muslims have when it comes to Hinduism. Next time, show a Muslim as a 'religious fanatic' because that's what the entire world thinks!!

Lol. It would be more convincing if Africans and Asians ain't stereotyping and racist against each other. For the West, you can have any programs you want to "break" the stereotyping and complaining about it. Now, try to have a Christian commercial or a Christian mission in Qatar or Saudi Arabia. Let's see how not stereotypical you really are.

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

Qatari Jihadist Propaganda house is parroting their comrade

Its funny, because 99% of the stereotypes are true.

When I think of the orient, I think of Jews. I think of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who were buried in the Holyland in Hebron. I think about Moses who brought down the tablets from Mt. Sinai. I think about the prophet Elijah who went into the sky in a flaming chariot. I think of Jesus Christ who died for our sins and John the Baptist. I think of Jerusalem, which is the holiest place for Jews in the world. I think of the fact that Jews have lived in the Orient since antiquity and gave the world Monotheism in its modern form, from which both Christianity and Islam are derived. I think of the fact that the Jewish state of Israel is the only refuge for Jews who survived the Holocaust and ethnically cleansed from all the Arabic countries in the 1950's. But most of all, I think about how an Arabic TV network like Al Jazeera is never going to mention a Jew in their publications, unless in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, because for Arab Muslims Jews don't exist as part of the middle-east. Or am I being stereotypical?

More hate skits to target the west Al Jazeera? All nationalities have presumptions and depictions of others. This short video depicts westerners as discriminative colonials, what does that make you? The victim? No, just a disgruntled broadcast.
