Ya rabbi la ilahe illa ente subhanaka inni kuntu minaddhalimin

This video mentions that African societies had slavery, but does not distinguish the ways that slavery in those society differed dramatically from the European version. Slavery in African societies was not chattel slavery. In African societies people were enslaved for two main reasons: as punishment for a crime or because they were prisoners of war. Enslaved people were considered human beings with rights - they had to be treated fairly or they could complain to the local chief and request a new master. They could own wealth themselves - and even own slaves themselves. In many cultures they could marry into the family that enslaved them. And in all cultures, their children were ALWAYS FREE!. This video mentions the narrative of Olaudah Equiano but leaves out his description of slavery in his Edo society. He specifically mentions how slaves did the SAME work as their enslavers - no more; they had the same food to eat - no less. The enslaved and the enslavers worked side by side; the only distinction was that the enslaved were not allowed to eat at the same table. This video states that "There were many difficulties for the captives during the Middle Passage." I think that might be the understatement of the year - the conditions of the Middle Passage were far beyond "difficult." The video also states that "captives...were instilled with obedience, often through beatings." Again, "instill" is a poor word choice here. "Instill" means to "gradually but firmly establish and idea or attitude in a person's mind." That is not what happened. Captives were beaten into submission, but, as Phyllis Wheatley's poetry shows, their minds were still free.

Correction: Gullah is not African words mixed with English. Gullah is an African-based language with some English words mixed in. Request: The speed of this video is incredibly fast and makes it difficult to process the information without repeated pausing and rewinding. The only option for slowing it down is to go to .5 speed, which is too slow. Is there any way to have the option for .75 speed?

Thank you for your service

Great video, really helped me understand 👍

I love you!!!

wow yu are such a good man for making these videos i salute you *does salute*

thank you so much for making these videos! they helped me learn the whole unit in a short amount of time

"Savage and brutal action from the Haytians," I guess it was their God's will to put a whole race in slavery and treat them worse than their animals 🤔

You are so cool and smart ❤

And now comes the rise of the Artificial Intelligence robots. Currently they are able to do household chores. And soon one day cooking. And then when they find out how to have sexual relations with the robot, women will be completely replaced. Congratulations women, you played yourselves.

Hey I was wondering on your website if you could consolidate all the files for each unit into one PDF for each unit instead of me having to individually print off each lesson. I LOVE these videos and they are very helpful as it is a brand new course. THANK YOU SO MUCH. You helped me get a 980/999 on Unit 1.

This is really great! In a time where there’s next to nothing on this AP, this is truly the best learning/reviewing tool rn!

Based

A good start to a popularized knowledge of African American Studies. But more precise theoretical definition required at the outset, e.g. The interdisciplinary study of people identified by links to land and culture in Africa and the America's. Important because land and culture are essential to human survival. Also, post WWII international efforts to decolonize history under the U.N.E.S.C.O. banner is ignored. Founding and development of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History also neglected in covering Dr. Woodson. We should be looking to ASAALH to create, circulate, critique and evaluate African American Studies curricula and institutional development.

Thanks man, this stuff aligns with a sponsored course I took! Keep going

Thank you so much for these!!! My school stopped teaching APAAS but they let me take the course as an independent study. This is helping so much!!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I AM CURRENTLY IN AP US HISTORY!

Thank you for making these! It’s SO HARD to find content for AAS

121m is nothing

He didn't warn against the MIC, but the corrupting influence it can have. But, why are you singling out the MIC when professional and business services, real estate, finance, and health care/pharma all have much greater corrupting influences?

Imagine referring to Albert parsons a just some guy
