The image depicts a nearly naked man amid a vast area of rainforest, spear pointed at the
helicopter hovering above him – a man defending his territory and people from outside influence. This
very scene made front-page news some years ago in the UK. It instantly highlighted the loss of ancestral
homelands some tribal communities round the world face.
Bad news has a way of dominating the headlines, so we're of the opinion that all indigenous
communities and their culture are in decline – and that's not true. But the allure of propagating the
"disappearing tribe" narrative is strong. It’s frustrating to see journalists who go on assignment with a set
story in mind and then seek out quotes, experiences or interviews to fit their predetermined angle.

The aliens among us
Humans think of themselves as the world’s apex predators. Hence the silence of sabre-tooth tigers,
the absence of moas from New Zealand and the long list of endangered megafauna. But sars-cov-2
shows how people can also end up as prey. Viruses have caused a litany of modern pandemics, from
Covid-19, to hiv/aids to the influenza outbreak in 1918-20, which killed many more people than the first
world war. Before that, the colonisation of the Americas by Europeans was abetted – and perhaps made
possible – by epidemics of smallpox, measles and influenza brought unwittingly by the invaders, which
annihilated many of the original inhabitants.

colleges that offer only virtual instruction. Students on existing visas would have had to transfer to a
school that offers at least some in-person teaching if they wanted to remain in the U.S.
The policy swiftly brought together a broad coalition of colleges, states and businesses that
opposed it. “The overwhelming negative reaction to this proposal in a very short period of time shows
that the administration really struck a nerve with this,” says Terry Hartle, from the American Council on
Education. “It’s unprecedented for that many colleges and universities to file suit against the federal
government.”
(Bloomberg Businessweek, 20.07.2020. Adapted.)
The expressions from the first paragraph “could have been” and “would have had” help understand
that, as to exclusively virtual instruction in U.S. universities and colleges,
