History Thread

My favorite subject in school. Do we have any history buffs in here? Any favorite eras to study or topics? Or any topics you want to learn more about?

I grew up learning the basic American history. But wasnt able to learn about us as a people until community college. I still like reading about the Medieval era of Europe and of West Africa and etc

i used to stay falling asleep in history class, lol

never really was interested....

now the history of jazz always fascinated me, and i love talking about old school trill niggaz like jack johnson.....lol

that shit is wild to me

 

[SeaSnake]

Jack Johnson was too real. I personally dont know why white people thought we couldnt fight. Or maybe they thought we were not smart enough to master the sweet science.

I never believe anything my white teachers taught me in history.

My favorite subject was mythology

 

[Lou Cypher]

History was the only class i attended. I took Anthropology and that was pretty fun, I really liked US history and ancient civilizations like Egypt and Greece, Rome and so on. Mythology was dope as hell.

How old were when you realized they lie they ass off?

 

[Eartha Clit]

Only thing I liked was Mythology.

 

[SeaSnake]

Alot of that Greek mythology is savage as hell too. Then again most of the ancient stuff that is known about widely is from Europe or Middle East

In high school I basically had to teach myself. You know schools really don't teach you anything. Unless you actually have a teacher that's really trying to open your mind up

Dope thread.

I want to learn more about capitalism and how this horrible system came about from a historical standpoint.

Currently reading about pre-colonial Africa.

 

[SeaSnake]

Thats tough. It could be so many factors in what drives capitalism to exist. I mean greed is always there.

What book you reading?

Pre-colonial Black Africa by Diop
