I read "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" in college. It's beautiful that you're keeping her story alive and sharing it from the place where she grew up. 💚
Thank you so much for this history lesson. She gave so much and received so little in return. I’m glad her family has been able to reclaim her rightful legacy.
I just learned about her in recent years. We owe so much to marginalized people we’re never taught about, and that’s a shame. Thank you for talking about her & keeping her story alive.☮️
Great video! I think I remember hearing within the last few years that her descendants finally received a settlement after all these years. Sad it took so long, sad it happened, but I’m glad her descendants were able to get some sort of compensation.
Thanks for shedding the light on Henrietta. There's so much untold history. I feel even sadder for these kids watching everything get buried and washed over. Glad you got your heat situated for your trip.
Thanks for sharing information about an Ancestor. I'm going to follow up on information about her. Hope you get your van serviced and prepared for your safe travels you are about to do. Blessings 🫶🏾
Thank you that was very thoughtful of you to enlighten and educate people because alot of people didn't know that very important part of of history hope everything works out well before you leave 👍 😊
This video inspires my humanitarian instincts. I would love to gather interested and invested individuals to restore such an important person's legacy. I know the family did not get any real compensation for helping in the research. Her and her family were bamboozled in typical American fashion. It's such a shame. I've known about Henrietta Lacks and the story of how she was unwittingly used for medical reasons. I had no idea how deplorable her legacy is. That needs to be corrected. Her tombstone is fitting. I just need to find out if there's any efforts being made to Perhaps make her home equally appropriate. Thank you so much for Taking the time to inform and educate people on such an accidentally, historically important person.💜🧚🏿♀️💜
James, you are an incredible storyteller. Thank you for telling a story that many of us don't know. I only learned of it lately. Like you said, they don't teach us thus in school.
Thank you for the History lesson an you’re right we weren’t taught about what all she Blessed us with Thank you so much . And as far as going on that property I would’ve been SCARED TO DEATH 🥺Enjoy keep the good content coming 💜
Hey there, James. I'm still trying to catch up. Glad you figured out a way to get the heat on. Hope it continues to work for you. Ok, I'm am glad you are back to untold history sharing. This brought a tear to my eye and an ach in my heart. I searched for Henrietta Lacks and found there is a movie about her life starring Oprah as her daughter. Several platforms are showing it, but I found it on Prime. It's on my wish list. I have surgery at the end of the month, so I will save it while recovering. There is also a book out about Henrietta on Amazon. Thank you for sharing, Henrietta Lack with us. Safe travels ✌️
Thank you, thank you, for the excellent, illustrated history lesson on a vital, but too-long ignored heroine of medicine. And I hope you get the right advice on your heater, because having the MAX AC on while you're heating can be a waste of gas.
When you have your vent on Max AC it recirculates the air inside the cabin. You can also disconnect the hoses to the heater core and flush the heater core out with a garden hose to pull all the rust out of the aluminum heater core
Thank you! I replaced the heater core with a new one along with the heater control valve about 2 months ago. I also replaced the thermostat state about 2 weeks ago I have no idea what’s going on unless it’s one of the vacuum actuators. 🤷🏽♂️
Make sure you say a few words of No harm ment, Peace n Love before you go onto abandoned properties. Just so you upset the spirits that remain. I agree with you. I have never herad of her. So sad that we didnt. Safe, safe travels Sir!!! 🩵💜🩷💛❤️💙🩶🖤💚🤎🧡✌🏼🙏🏼
Thanks for doing this video! I read “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks” several years ago & learned how the HeLa cells were a medical game changer, including for development of the polio vaccine.
That was really cool I didn't know that I've learned a lot that they did not teach us in school they teached their history not everyone history thanks for sharing great video.
I may have said this before but I want to make a recommendation to get yourself a Chinese diesel heater. Get yourself a Bluetti DC to DC charger 1 and a large powerbank or 2 medium sized powerbanks, in case one fails. Learn how to install the diesel heater, seriously it's a game changer in nomad, vanlife. The DC to DC charger 1 will keep your powerbanks energized by fast charging while your engine is running. These 3 items are must haves for every nomad, vanlifer.
Hey thanks! I have a diesel heater, solar, and a dc to dc and they all work. I would just like to get my van heater back working so I won’t have to use so much diesel.
Thank you thank you for bringing to our attention the incredible story of Henrietta Lacks. Yes she should've been in our history books. What was taken from her without her consent could've saved her life. Unknowingly she has given a great contribution to medical breakthroughs to this day and for the future. So many people need to hear her story. This biological discovery is life saving and life changing
Supa dope, I am from VA but live in Baltimore very close to Hopkins actually, I didn't know she was from VA - I also do Van Life but am manifesting another van now after I survived being attacked by 3 people and losing my Van in August here in Baltimore, hopefully I am back out there next year
I read the book about **Henrietta Lacks** and AFTER I finished Crying I became Angry 😡 🤬 because of the Thieving Clear Coats 😂 which is How I usually refer to them.
Yes.... They didn't teach us about Henrietta Lacks. I just recently learned about her cell 2 years ago. Her family descendants of hers sued & won their case because the took her cells and used them without their permission.

Thank you so much!
Thank you, thank you, for the excellent, illustrated history lesson on a vital, but too-long ignored heroine of medicine. And I hope you get the right advice on your heater, because having the MAX AC on while you're heating can be a waste of gas.
When you have your vent on Max AC it recirculates the air inside the cabin.
You can also disconnect the hoses to the heater core and flush the heater core out with a garden hose to pull all the rust out of the aluminum heater core
Also check the valve on the heater hose line feeding the heater core
Thank you! I replaced the heater core with a new one along with the heater control valve about 2 months ago. I also replaced the thermostat state about 2 weeks ago I have no idea what’s going on unless it’s one of the vacuum actuators. 🤷🏽♂️
Thank you for sharing one of many untold, little know facts. Her story should be known.
I’m glad I could share her story, Thank you for watching!
Make sure you say a few words of No harm ment, Peace n Love before you go onto abandoned properties. Just so you upset the spirits that remain.
I agree with you. I have never herad of her. So sad that we didnt.
Safe, safe travels Sir!!!

Thanks for doing this video! I read “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks” several years ago & learned how the HeLa cells were a medical game changer, including for development of the polio vaccine.
That’s great I’m glad that you read the book and were hip to who she was! Thank you for watching!
That was really cool I didn't know that I've learned a lot that they did not teach us in school they teached their history not everyone history thanks for sharing great video.
It’s definitely a pleasure I’m glad that I could share some knowledge. thank you for watching!
you make working on the van so easy
Thank you! I try to!
Thanks for the history lesson. I learned about the HeLa cells in college. Those cells are studied by scientists around the world.
Thank you so much for watching!
