The "Buzz Wagon:" Studebaker's Electric Cars
As we pass the elusive Telsa Cybertruck, we’re reminded of Studebaker’s innovative electric cars produced in the early 20th century.
The South Bend manufacturer’s electric cars became a mainstay of the company, providing vehicles for personal use as well as transport. They were also marketed in a unique way. Studebaker focused on city businessmen, and especially society women, as the premier customers for electric cars. While gas-powered cars became the company’s focus by 1912, Studebaker’s innovative designs and skillful presentation nevertheless made their electric cars more than a mere fad. They showed the country that electric cars could be made cost-effectively and provide customers w...

Yesterday Today Forever
A history of Indiana made by someone from not Indiana.
search for "The Rhetoric and Practice of Scalping" (then Clark within the page) , look for the books "Long Knife", and "History of George Rogers Clark's Conquest of Illinois and Wabash Towns 1778 and 1779"
A generalization is necessary.... we call the Germans German, they are deutch. From Deutschland.
Your voice is a turn off
It would have been more tolerable if you had used more visuals instead of one picture
That’s how they got the name fighting Irish
My grandmother was in the 1954 South Bend Blue Sox team
I have seen a flying table and much more in a circle. I know these things are true. Everyone can do it, but we newer know what will happen.

The Hoosier I was not allowed to learn about in school.. As a Hoosier myself, makes me really mad
❤❤❤
He was basically a alcoholic and a layabout. All of his prophecies and predictions came from his brother. Is buffoonery caused the Battle of Tippecanoe and the destruction of prophetstown. He single-handedly undone all of his brothers hard work up until that point. This loser deserves no trophy, except one on how not to behave
TeAmo
This is fantastic!Thank you for such a concise, elegant presentation on this highly important and greatly underrated culture influencer.
Excellent historical video. I am learning about spiritualism after realising my grandmother was a spiritualist.
5$ Indian that's not what the real indigenous people of this land look like...
Amazing 👏 🙏
They were both great womanizers
They were both great womanizers
I really like their clothes! Arm stripes, two tone sleeves/torso. A sport where women could be aggressive which is what my friends and I loved. I soon lost sight of this, moving to Southern California and became a surfer in the San Diego area, mostly LA Jolla Shores.
This is so much fun, both as history and a nostalgic look back at my teenage yearnings wanting to be this kind of athlete
A Hoosier is a Teamster whose wagon is drawn by oxen.
So are tenskatawa and tecumseh last names young eagle bayles?
11 months and only 3 likes? This is way better then that and you need to get this to true ball fans somehow. These women were amazing and this post made that fact very clear.
Great translations from Japanese and Chinese. I never get tired of reading them. Didn't know he was before the Beats and influenced them. Wonderful documentary and great excerpts of his poems .
Thank God for Anita Bryant. LGBTQIA+ hate morality and anyone who fights for the betterment and conservative values of humanity. The TRUTH hurts and that’s why so many Christian’s are hated, and why so many people are defiant against believers. They’ll see the error of their ways on Judgment Day. Too many people want to re-write the Bible to fit their own narratives and that’s just not the case. Repent and turn from immorality and wickedness while you can still save your soul. God Bless..
I am a direct descendent of Tecumseh. From what I have read, Tecumseh and his brother Prophet worked together to get the other tribes to work as one to take back their land. Tecumseh was also a brigadier general in the French army, who promised the Indians that if they help them, they would leave this Country.
in the English army
is Tecumseh mother Methoataske the daughter to Mary Ice?
Thank you for this history of a remarkable woman. I have studied from her textbook on electromagnetism co-authored with Panofsky.
Thank you, a favorite poet of a poet!
Definitely underrated writer, poet and creative. Hugely influential on generations of poets and largely uncreated.
My Grandfather’s sister.
The reputation of Notre Dame and its students went up in my estimation.
The 1920’s Klan also wielded guns and nooses. They were just as violent and evil as the predecessor. A very sorry chapter in our history.
True story! My grandfather came out as a South Bend citizen with the ND students against the Klan that day. The title of this piece has very little to do with the the four players shown as you see them. Although, football player protestors were there as students only and really had nothing to do with football at that very moment. Oddly, the pool hall in South Bend that is mentioned in this piece was Ditto Hunt's Mad House where George Gipp played pool and poker. I can tell you more, just ask.
The Klan. Translation= Democrats
If you look at the klan and the history of Indiana in the 1920's, you can draw a perfect parallel to tRump and his ignorant cult of followers in the 2020's. We think that we have come so far. The klan of our time just markets itself better with their own TV networks and press. Look back at history, learn from what you see, and do what you can to make sure that we are better than we were 100 years ago.
Tds is strong with you. Biden is and has always been racist as has the demokkkrats. I mean hey they started the kkk fought to keep slaves in civil war and voted in Jim crow laws. But hey let's not let history and facts get in your way.
On this day Nov 25th 2021 it is the 185th anniversary of Tenskwatawa's death. He was and is still a true hero. I honor you today for all the good things you did and tried to do for your Shanwnee Brother's and Sister's and of all indigenous tribes you tried to help. I know you are resting in a place with your people and have your land and way of life and customs returned to you. I think of you as a brother and you will always be remembered and will never be forgotten or under appreciated.
He was a phony, lazy layabout and an alcoholic. The only good thing about him was his brother. Because the Battle of Tippecanoe that destroyed all of his brothers hard work up until that point. No trophy for a loser like him
Awesome. Check out @andrewfosterlegacy on instagram for more Black history in Indianapolis
6 minutes of apologizing for being white.. I'm going to try to listen to this because I'm interested. But cut out that bullshit
This is an interestingly worded comment and I've never quite understood the theory behind this kind of thinking. Do some white folk really believe that the amount of skin pigment a people have directly correlates to the number of transgressions they can commit? Like it's a genetic fact that white people are bad so they just own up to it and either hate themselves or learn to take pride in it and use it as a crutch to ignore a guilty conscience when they do something wrong. Absolutely puzzling. Sounds like a psychological disorder if you ask me, much like the multitude of other beliefs that were born out of the concept of "race". Acknowledgement of past wrong doings and the continuing prosperity of European settlers and their descendants which resulted from our people's destruction is not "apologizing for being white". Not that apologies and acknowledgement were really ever all that helpful anyway. Or sincere. You can't fix a broken lamp with words. And even if you could, why bother if you're only going to break it again?
PINKY RINGS UP TO THE MOOOON BAHAHHA
The Prophet. Those unusual 1811-1812 New Madrid earthquakes definitely helped grow his following. I wonder what would have happened to Tenskwataw's following if his Brother Tecumseh did not die.
“Indian” is still simplest, if not “woke”. If you’re going to bore us with a long preachy introduction, don’t expect people to “hang in there”.
Very entertaining theoretical history. I know a great deal about his campains to establish the original Northwest Territory, but hadn't thought about not getting the funding to further his "conquest" South. It could be, they feared what he could have accomplished, but not realizing that he was a true patriot and more than likely would have taken the southern areas, only to hand them over to the US. ???

7903953922 AIDS ka ilaj karaai
If you produced something like this today to describe our current Covid-19 epidemic I would have to wonder if Alex Jones wrote the piece.
You are feeding the idea that nothing could be known and science had nothing to say about children with AIDS and schools. Haitian Americans became an issue because tainted blood products that came in from Haiti. The HIV infection rate in Haiti remains high.
Thank you for your feedback. We certainly did not intent to feed into the idea that science had nothing to say about children with AIDS in school, nor do we believe that (either during Ryan's time or now), which is why we included the science-based actions taken by Hamilton Heights High School to juxtapose against the reaction of his middle school. We were trying to present a balanced account of why people made the choices they made at the time - whether those choices were based on scientific evidence or misinformation. We did not go in-depth into what the scientific literature was saying as our intention with the episode was to tell the story of Ryan's advocacy. If you'd like to discuss this further, please feel free to email us at IHB@Library.in.gov.
@@talkinghoosierhistory7947 You ignored what science had to say regarding the inclusion of children with AIDS in public schools. That's the Howard County Public Health office, the state secretary of health and others. You ignored the 1973 Rehabilitation Act. You gave equal consideration to ignorance. You didn't describe what the education program at Hamilton Heights was regarding HIV/AIDS. You said nothing about the Hemophilia advocacy groups who advised their members to keep treating while knowing that both HIV and Hepatitis C had infected the blood supply. You said nothing about prison plasma that continued to be exported abroad after screened and heat treated Factor 8 products were available. You said nothing about the CDC's early recommendation that a Hepatitis B test be used as a surrogate for an HIV test in plasma/blood donations. You ignored cases like Mark Hoyle or Jason Robertson. You said nothing about the use of cryo which had much lower rate of HIV infections among Hemophiliacs. You need a good medical science historian to help you.
You're repeating the basic biographical information and the established timeline of the early years of the HIV/AIDS epidemic but glossed over much of the science and the tainted blood scandal. You ignored what can be known about how long the blood system had been tainted and the reluctance to screen donors, treat the plasma and look at other treatment options.
