People have always asked me, kind of like where I'm from, what my race is, and I was not totally sure. [Music] I identify as mixed: white, black, and Native American African-American. But my mom would say, "You're black, but you're also white." I didn't understand what that meant; other something different? Not quite black, not quite white. I identify as mixed race, but I don't think the world sees me as mixed race.

32% Northern European, 28% Mediterranean, 21% Sub-Saharan African, 14% Southwest Asian. [Music] Very—they all look like they're related to me. This looks like my family, like literally. You have how familiar they feel, honestly. [Music]

I have no idea why this makes me emotional. I mean, there's tremendous diversity in how we look, but yet I could see that I could be related to any one of them. The one where did I get the most is unique, and that's what all these people sorta have in common.

My dad used to joke and say, "Uh, you're black Irish. Oh, you're black Irish!" And guess what? I'm like, "Oh, we have a lot more in common than we have differences." One person is not just one race. [Music] You.

Why is this number everywhere?

Buffer capacity | Buffers, titrations, and solubility equilibria | Chemistry | Khan Academy

Let’s talk about buffer capacity. Buffer capacity is a property of a buffer, and it tells you how much acid or base you can add before the pH starts changing. Basically, as your buffer capacity goes up (which I’m going to abbreviate as BC), you can add m…

Let f and g be the functions defined by ( f(x) = 1 + x + e^{x^2 - 2x} ) and ( g(x) = x^4 - 6.5x^2 + 6x + 2 ). Let R and S be the two regions enclosed by the graphs of f and g shown in the figure above. So here I have the graphs of the two functions, and …

Mesh current method (step 4 solve)

We’re working on the mesh current method of analyzing circuits, and in the previous video, we set up our circuit. We set up our mesh currents flowing around these loops within the circuit, and we solved for the easy currents. That was the, uh, the current…
