The term Semitic people or semitic cultures (from the biblical "Shem", Hebrew: שם) was a historical term for people or cultures who speak or spoke the Semitic languages. The racial or ethnic use of the term, together with the parallel terms Hamitic and Japhetic, is now obsolete.
As language studies are interwoven with cultural studies, the term also came to describe the extended Semitic religions and ethnicities, as well as the history of these varied cultures as associated by close geographic and linguistic distribution.
The region of origin of the reconstructed Proto-Semitic language, ancestral to historical and modern Semitic languages in the Middle East, is still uncertain and much debated. However, a recent Bayesian analysis identified an origin for Semitic languages in the Levant (modern Syria and Lebanon) around 3750 BC with a later single introduction from what is now Southern Arabia into the Horn of Africa (Ethiopia) around 800 BC. Other theories include an origin in either Mesopotamia, the Arabian Peninsula or North Africa. The Semitic language family is also considered a component of the larger Afroasiatic macro-family of languages. Identification of the hypothetical proto-Semitic region of origin is therefore dependent on the larger geographic distributions of the other language families within Afroasiatic, whose origins are also hotly debated. According to Christy G. Turner II, there is an archaeological and physical anthropological reason for a relation between the modern Semitic-speaking populations of the Levant and the Natufians.
The term Semitic or Semite most commonly refers to the Semitic languages, a language family currently present in West Asia, North and East Africa, and Malta

"The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today released the results of an unprecedented worldwide survey of anti-Semitic attitudes. The ADL Global 100: An Index of Anti-Semitism surveyed 53,100 adults in 102 countries and territories in an effort to establish, for the first time, a comprehensive data-based research survey of the level and intensity of anti-Jewish sentiment across the world. The survey found that anti-Semitic attitudes are persistent and pervasive around the world. More than one-in-four adults, 26 percent of those surveyed, are deeply infected with anti-Semitic attitudes. This figure represents an estimated 1.09 billion people around the world."

A while back, Vsauce did a video with a bright yellow thumbnail titled "this is not yellow." His point was that the pixels on a screen only ever actually produce red, green and blue light, and that there were no beams of light coming from that thumbnail that would have, alone, been perceived as "yellow." He was wrong, of course, in saying that the thumbnail wasn't yellow, but only because he was defining "yellow" differently from how we normally use the word, and he was using that misuse of terminology to teach people about the nature of color. This video was my attempt to do something similar. Of course English isn't semitic. I knew that when I made this video. That was the point, I wanted to have a provocative title which was blatantly wrong. For the sake of teaching people about ...
