Yep, that World History playlist is probably better than 99% of the World History lessons that U.S. students get in their entire time in K-12. Same with the US courses too to be honest.

I had heard of Phyllis Wheatley before, but I never knew she was that accomplished.
Also, Thomas Jefferson was a real piece of shit.

I've seen him on a couple different things since he started the CC series. I wonder if that channel is helping him blow up a little.

His whole mind state goes to show how crazy they were back then. Dude really couldn't understand why she would run away. He thought that since they treated her nice for a slave that she would be happy being someone else's property. That's wild.

Another good episode. I've noticed they seem to focus a lot on women. I ain't mad at it though. I've learned a lot, and these women were doper than I realized.

Nah, I'm checking this out.
What's crazy is the first time I learned about the revolt in Louisiana was from a white boy on YouTube named Atun-Shei. It was nice to get a more familiar perspective.
Not saying the white boy didn't do it justice, but you know.
