Please watch this video. It’s produced by a former high school history teacher.

It’s going to make you uncomfortable. It might make you mad. It might make you sad. But if you’re white and you choose not to watch this, I want you to really look deep inside and ask yourself why would you not want to be introduced to the part of American history you don’t learn about in school.

I was unaware of 90% of what is introduced in this video. I’ll give you a hint, you’re never going to use the phrase grandfathered in or grandfather clause again.

If you’re like me and you’ve been trying to wrap your brain around the racial tensions in the US, especially recently, you’ll want to watch this. If you’re concerned about your children learning critical race theory in school, you’ll want to watch this. If you think slavery ended after Lincoln signed the emancipation proclamation, you’ll want to watch this.

I should thank you for this link.
I watched it in entirety after work.
I learned things I never knew.

I saw he did a video on the Armenian Genocide. It's a topic that's very important to me. I'm going to be watching that before bed.
@basilfawlty89 i recommend Knowing Better,. the poster.
so well researched, and far from extreme, I would Like your opinion on the Armenian Genocide episode. Your perspective will be helpful

@SatyrService I've subscribed to the channel. Once I've watched the video I'll let you know. So far with the Armenian Genocide, most of it I do know. To be fair I've been studying the Genocide since about 2008.
@basilfawlty89 it has been on my radar for decades.
I look forward to your imprssion, and would welcome. a one on one.

@SatyrService I do hope he goes more into the history of the Armenians, the arrival of the Turks from Central Asia who essentially forced the native population into assimilating as Turks culturally and Pan-Turkism.

The last one is the primary reason for the Armenian Genocide and the reason behind the Armenian-Azerbaijani war over Artsakh) Nagorno-Karabakh.
