Natures Beings Amy Ouypron

I"m not sure where this one will lead to... but my intentions aimed to discuss something about the National Geographic Aboriginal Tribe video...
So here's a thought: how interesting is it the fact that commercialism and the always increasing industrialization of the world is not only taking a toll on the natural environment--land, water, the ozone--which then affects the animals within that environment, but indeed influxes the extinction of certain animals and (now brace yourself) the extinction of human beings. HUMAN BEINGS! So who gives a damn? I mean a large majority of the world would look at such peoples as the Aborigines and Yanamamo and various tribes throughout Africa and Tibet as "not so human." I mean any human who only knows how to appropriately cover his privates with a thin rag and a vine simply can't understand the full aspects of being human, right? Is it Darwinism, that these tribes couldn't figure out on their own how to advance their technology and organize their governments in order to keep up with the powerful imperial-based economies of the world?
Well I watched a video in my Anthropology class about a year ago. It was a documentary about a tribe in Africa that was once a hunter-gatherer society. Then the "white man" came and thought that by invading their "barbaric" community and teaching them about working and money and buying things, he might be civilizing these rather uncivilized beings. It was one of the most depressing documentaries I had ever witnessed. Now the tribe looked rather like peasants in torn up jeans and ripped t-shirts, no more tribal beads or body paint. Now some men sat all day carving figures of animals once used for ritual worship but were now for the purpose of being sent somewhere for tourists to purchase and brag about their travels. They were more like slaves cleaning the man's house and getting paid in pennies for it.
It's a depressing reality to think of all these beautiful natural beings, so in touch with their environments, but becoming extinct like the animals that inhabit such places. But I suppose I'm just one of many others who can talk the talk but aren't sure how to walk the walk.
