  • i wish i could say i was a positive, jazzy human this week. unfortunately not. blm has been top of mind, as i'm sure it has been for a lot of you! enjoy this realistic day in my life as a part time intern! 🦋
    I work as a paid summer marketing intern around ~30 hours a week! I split my time between meetings, long-term projects and working through my Asana project management board. The more I hustle through, the more time I have to spend on RUclips projects and learning. 😌 Keeping myself busy in the working week has given quarantine a new structure, which I appreciate.
    How are you spending summer? Is anyone else doing a remote internship? ✨

    Thank you so much for watching!
    💰 Important message: All my ad revenue for the whole of June will be going to Black Lives Matter. So, if you feel inclined, watch all of the ads without skipping. Just to let you know, there is very low accountability for RUclipsrs actually giving Adsense to charities they say they will. The way ad revenue is structured involves fluctuating rates and isn't always clear. I think batching it to a whole month will ensure ALL my revenue can be paid straight from YT, to me, to The Bail Project. Thank you!

      hammertapping that’s interesting. she is actively working to educate herself and seeking to recognize her privilege in all the ways it touches her life, in addition to using her large platform to advocate the same for her viewers. what would you rather she do?

    • @CrystalLinthebookfreak
      @CrystalLinthebookfreak 4 года назад

      @hammertapping she stated in this video that she is donating the proceeds to organizations that support Black liberation and the fight against white supremacy. i think that goes beyond virtue signaling. also, i am working on educating myself as well, and i am coming to better, more informed understandings of history and how the world operates today. again, what exactly would you rather Jade do? how do you think she should "unconditionally and totally renounce" the privileges she enjoys under white supremacy?

    • @amy-bk9gi
      @amy-bk9gi 4 года назад

      @hammertapping I see your point, but she is not a racist. if she was a racist she wouldn't be so passionate about the current situation and she wouldn't be so desperately trying to help blm charities. Also I agree, blm has come too out of hand. I don't know what country you are from but the protests are becoming way to violent where I am. None of the protesters are wearing facemasks which will extend lockdown further which is selfish for the rest of the country. Black lives do matter anyone would be a fool to argue against that, but I doubt that Jade would be intending to make racist remarks in her videos.

    That’s such a nice uke! To start you off I’d say keep at the four chords you used for Hallelujah (C, Am, F, G) and practise them in different sequences. Try switching between them quickly and with different strumming patterns to build your skill.
    Once you’ve got that down, the chords D (2220) and Em (0432) are really useful to have in a chord progression with G and C chords. And as I’m sure you know keep practising it until it becomes natural!
    One little thing too - if you want to use a plectrum, make sure it’s a ukulele feltrum rather than a guitar pick as plastic plectrums can damage the strings! xx

    I dont want to commend you for being a decent human but OMG, the amount of research you have done and INCLUDE IN YOUR LIFE. I LOVE YOU. Thank you for being an awesome ass person. Like so many non-black people's activism is SOOOOOO piss poor and performative. YOU ARE DOING SO MUCH not just in your research but also incorporating it into your personal and work life. YOU ARE AN ALLY. THIS IS HOW U USE YOUR PRIVILEGE. If I ever asked a company how they were going to make it easier for black people or poc to travel the world comfortably I would be fired or ignored or worse gaslighted. AND THIS HAS ACTUALLY happened.

    This video is very timely for me because I’ve also just started a new internship/ job at my uni (in the maths department)!
    It’s my first job and I’m working from home so it feels a bit strange but I’m learning a lot.
    It’s to do with classifying classroom practices in lectures. I actually mentioned Minerva as a could place my manager could reach out to try and broaden this research to online lectures! Many universities will have to adapt to online learning in September and it might be useful to learn from Minerva.

    The best strumming pattern to learn is DDUUDU (d=down and u=up) as this can be applied to a lot of songs.
    Good beginners songs are
    - Disney's Lava
    -I'm Yours
    - Lost boy
    -Let it be
    These all have four chords and the chord shapes are pretty easy to learn and transfer between

    For the ukulele I think it’s the same as when I was learning the guitar and for any other instrument. Practice practice practice. The first few chords are hard. But then the more you learn, the faster you learn more because your hands know what they need to do quicker. Just don’t give up. It’s so fun to be able to play an instrument, so keep on going because I know you’ll be able to do this

    Hey I’m a musician (I play ukulele, piano, and tuba) and if ur looking for pointers I think the biggest things with the uke is make sure it’s tuned well and building finger strength to press the strings down properly. Best of luck! You’re doing great!

    Riptide is a nice and easy song to learn as a beginner ukelele player. I love to play the song "Absolutely smitten" by Dodie. She has made a tutorial on RUclips on how to play it. It's slightly more difficult, but such a lovely tune. Also, find out which fingers works best for you to strum. When I started I used my index but then found I preferred my thumb (also sometimes buying a nylon pick can help for strumming patterns that are fast!). Hope this helps🥰

    I, as a Scottish high school student, was taught a lot about the British involvement in things like the Atlantic slave trade.
    I think that the reason that they don't teach it to younger students is because there is no way it could be censored without actually taking away the important bits. No one is really protesting that we don't teach 7 year olds about how the vikings raped and killed innocent people. We just give them funny hats and wooden swords and let them believe whatever they want.
    I'm not saying what I learned was flawless, and I know that it is important that more people learn about it, but at the same time, I wouldn't want children to be taught about the gritty makeup of a slave ship, or would I expect them to understand the ways in which abolition was fought for. It's the same reason I wasn't taught about the Highland clearances until S5; because it's better to learn and comprehend when you are older, than misunderstand when you are younger.
    It's simply that when you get old enough here to learn about it, many people have already dropped the subject, so don't learn about it. So yes, perhaps this is something we should teach to younger high schoolers, but the belief that we aren't teaching it at all is a bit untrue.

    suggestions for playing the ukulele --> use the app "guitar tuna" to tune your uke as string instruments tend to go out of tune very quickly with consistent use, it's probably a better idea to not try to follow tutorials on how to strum with your fingers or any "well-known" strumming patterns if you aren't too bothered about technique - personally i find that it's better to develop your own style of playing which will happen over time, it's always good to try and play songs you find difficult, fingering skills will grow with muscle memory, which tends to act relatively quickly - don't be afraid to just do a really complicated chord over and over. (i'm self taught so this may not be helpful at all aha) love you jade :)

    You should also read up on some of the more 'controversial' Black Power movements who saw what racism is perpetuated by. To fight against racism is to fight against capitalism. If your discussion of race relationships and history does not include the analysis of capitalism then your view of how systemic racism works is going to fall short every time.

    Jade!!! First off, I love you and you have been an absolute inspiration for me! I'm graduating early (this December instead of in the spring of 2021) and then taking a gap year and you have truly been an inspiration through it all! You have given me so much confidence to realize that I can do more than my anxiety tells me so I just wanted to say thank you for everything :) As for my second note, you must check out iTalki! I've been learning languages for years through this amazing platform and currently speak 3 (almost 4) languages and this has been a huge help. Every person I've met and talked to so far has been so sweet, kind and helpful (and affordable!). And even if you don't talk a class, there's a community section where you can talk to other language learners for free and I've made so many friends there. Have an incredible summer sweetie and all my love goes to you 💛
