The Black Politicians of Reconstruction | The History You Didn't Learn
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- When we learn about the Reconstruction Era in school, it’s often taught as a dark period in American history, a time of upheaval and unrest right after the Cvil War. But what often gets overlooked is that, for a brief period of time, thousands of black representatives were elected to office all over the south.

yet again, public schools never taught us this.
Nope
Lol I was taught this. You just weren't paying attention. Reconstruction is classic American history
@@matthewregister6082I would love to find info on that school issued history book? Mine definitely didn't, 1996 grad here
@@RANS87IROCZ idk if I could find it but this was mentioned when talking about the impact of the compromise of 1877
It hurts the conservative narrative. They dont want there kids to know the truth.
Am from Uganda East Africa and am happy to learn all about African American. Black is salt of the world, am proud.
Black is beautiful! Africa was the garden of Eden !
The oldest Bible in the world is in Ethiopia ✝️
Christianity was in Africa before Europe, it is not a white religion !
Stay Blessed Brother!
While in college and later working in academia, I had the privilege of getting to know several Africans. All of these were "salt of the earth" type folks.....some of the most respectful and giving people i have known
Black republican ❤️ make us great again
They held offices as REPUBLICANS 🤯
Yup
Republicans were liberal at that time
They created the republican party

Am from Uganda East Africa and am happy know about the black American history here
This is an awesome topic and look to start my own channel based on this subject...the more voices the better
Hiram Revels deserves a film, this man basically legitimized the 15th amendment with his election. Then he literally established the public hbcu landgrant system by being the founding president of Alcorn State University.
Indeed 😊
We have to study our own history and stop thinking or letting others tell us his story we have a lot of culture
Exactly...especially woke anti american anti white activists hellbent on revenge or some kind of brainwashed ideas taught to them by cults
Well yall keep voting for Democrats, the leaders of slavery and the implementation of Jim Crow
@@KingTwinTv study from what sources?
@@reasy1978 any history prior to reconstruction era
So enlightening!!! We are so unaware of our power!
AMER'ICAN, noun A native of America; originally applied to the aboriginals, or copper-colored races, found here by the Europeans; but now applied to the descendants of Europeans born in America. The name American must always exalt the pride of patriotism. - Washington.
Your power is mainly to do harm. That's why no city where your people live is decent. Nowhere on earth.
Life begun in Africa and the convenant between God and man is our veins. So wherever we re things stirrup for the best
And today as we speak after thousands of year of domancy of the convenant it's now very active. God is super with us today
New world spiritual order emerging
People swear up and down school didnt teach them this. Neither did your parents or grandparents. Its evident its been around. Just say you werent interested in this history in school.
Exactly! I learned this in high school '92 grad, and college '96 grad.
@@mempho38128 I have always been interested in politics and American history and have never learned about this in a public school setting - in Florida.
It wasn't taught in my schools.
@TylerD288 great that you were taught this. We all weren't as fortunate.
@@theronyoung1909 what, did your class skip Reconstruction? BC this is a pretty big element of the Reconstruction era. I find it impossible to believe it was left out, and I went to school in a super-conservative state, which I eventually left bc they were way too conservative, but even they taught this.
The Reconstruction Era Southern Blacks had a whole pre-Jim Crowe era that saw intermingling with Whites, and Blacks holding office throughout the states. Before segregation, before Black codes, etc. , there was a brief era of semi- harmonious post-emancipation Black integration in American society during Reconstruction. Between 1870-1900.
Mmmmmm no some actually knew this. Remember, school isn't the only place where kids learn History and other subjects.
This is an incredible channe
My Irish Great-Grandfather defeated the Racist Democrats in the civil war.
What is never said most of the time which political party supported Blacks in Congress and which did not during The Reconstruction Era.
I will forever be a Republican. These are the true heros! They gave me freedom to be what I wanted.
God bless, i am right there with you....i think a freedom for one is also a freedom for us all, im glad to have african americans to call my fellow citizens and i love how far we have come together and continue hopefully to improve and move forward, i dont like how negative the news and the media has become however i think there are alot more good people out there that we give credit to
Well a Republican in 1870 is the political opposite of a Republican today.
Reading many of these comments makes me despair for our collective future.
I suppose this level of brain wreckage has always been part of America (and the world), but the problem now is that these people are so easily able to broadcast their ignorance and thus find one another (which makes their ignorance not seem as aberrant as it used to...).
Why don't the schools teach this to our kids?
Because they want u 2 only learn about being a slave black people started the republican party of Texas 1867 Houston Texas it was started by 150 blacks 20 whites

@albastroube8195 . No you don't!!!
Democrats had their first Senator in the late 1990s . That should tell you everything you need to know
Awesome thank you
Social caste system colorable words black and white has nothing to do with color , status 💎
Amen, it's great too see those that understand such!
Excellent teaching. When and why how black people became Democrat in the south after reconstruction
1970 and nixions southern stategy changed the parties
The first Democratic President to win black voters was FDR in 1936. The first to ever gain significant ground with black voters was also FDR in 1932.

Here is a long Reconstruction video
ruclips.net/video/btV1ovf560g/видео.html
How did the Reconstruction Amendments lead to the election of Black legislators/politicians?
Slaves could not vote (hence the 13th amendment)
non citizens could not vote (hence the 14th amendment)
once "redeemed" southern legislatures made it neigh impossible for African Americans (no longer slaves and now citizens) to vote (hence the 15th amendment... and even with its passage it was ignored until the passage of the voting rights act in 1865 ... which itself was "enabled" by a clause in the 15th amendment... a similar enabling clause appears in the 14th amendment and it is what has allowed for the passage of laws that allow African Americans to sleep in hotels and enter restaurants and etc...)
those are your reconstruction amendments (13th, 14th, 15th)
EDIT: I just finished watching the video and I now realize that all of this was covered in the video.
Thé US is a bunkers place. Sooooo broken
They where mostly black republicans btw
Hmm...not really, it was just VERY popular amongst black dominant cities and towns because of the OBVIOUS reason
They were the liberal party. You could say it that way too.
1861-1938, most black Americans were Republicans 🇺🇸💪🏾💪🏾
Radical Republicans nothing like today’s.
Yes. The Republicans at that time were the liberal party. Democrats today are the liberal party. Black Americans have always been in the liberal party.
Laws will never legislate the human heart. Those filled with hate will always seek a way to impose cruelty on others.
7:01 What protections did you need? Because everybody gets the same production.
Wonderful 😘
How did nobody learn this? The first 23 black congressmen where Republicans that's probably why. 😆
So? All the white supremacists and neo-Confederates are Republicans now.

I feel like we are living through history now. Black lies and pandering will do tremendous irreversible damage to society and culture.

ok
BLACK POWER!!!!
Only problem? We all white in the end? Yep just a bunch of dirty white bones
SOUL POWER, because in death there is need for such large organ as skin? And living in such is sin? The body is reduced to bones that are the same color as every other in the end
HUMAN POWER!!!
I judge people. One by one.
No you don't neither did your ancestors
Case in point: Now I'm judging you, as an individual, to be ignorant. Ignorant of not knowing one single thing about the stranger you replied to. Thanks for helping me reinforce my comment. 'Preciate cha.
@@TheAmazingCajun I judge people as I meet them, and even if they're rude at first I give them a pass, unless I know them well. I was taught to do this as a child and it was reinforced as I grew up. Not everyone grew up racist like you apparently.
The Black REPUBLICANS of Reconstruction.
The republicans were in the north at this time
@@indridcole7596 Most of them yes. Senator Benjamin Wade and Representative Henry Winter Davis were the exceptions.
Funny how that’s no longer the case. Almost like… the parties change over time. Couldn’t be the case, right? Even though you just admitted Republicans migrated away from Northern voters.
Yes, Republicans of that time period were the liberal party.
@TylerD288 right and stil today the liberator of blacks from slavery not from a made up idea of oppression but real oppression.
This is a bunch of half truths smh🤣
It’s all true - the truth you are afraid to learn
@Marco Kitty It makes Democrats look like heroes to Black Americans, when in actuality they've always been and still are the Villians.
This is a longer, and better, video.

Please tell us which were the "half truths". I really want to know. Thanks.
This video started off educational then went completely off the rails into conspiracy, lies and disinformation
TOTALLY. White Liberal Democrats think Black people don't gave I.D.s Bahahaha!
A long more detailed video

Stay mad, it’s the history white conservatives such as yourself created. How else are you going to pin this on Democrats, anyway?
I thought the same thing! They couldn't find any pictures of the supposed voter suppression so they used a photo of a long line of white voters. There should be no place for political partisanship in history or journalism. Unfortunately it's become the norm. It's the reason why mainstream media has seen major declines in reader and viewership. Nobody wants to be told what to think by a bunch of ivory tower elites.
You weren’t there so how are you so sure that’s not how it happened?
It's time for my people to return back home to the Republican party.

This statement is assbackwards
Actually the so called black men who held office as Republicans of the United States of America Republic were from Europe and are Europeans and Africans known as Moors. They were given refuge by Indians who looked the same as them, who wrote U.S.A constitution as "We the People" of the United States of Algonquin, i.e. aboriginal land and resources owners, ones first in authority, for the colonies who styled themselves as the United States of America.
1st Jesus now this? 🤦♂️
🤣🤣🤣 That's Funny bro ..sorry but 90% of what ppl learn from common education is a lie ..it's called eugenics I won't tell you what really happened because it will be to much for you to hear in 1 day
1.21 million subscribers and this doesn’t even have 10k views says a lot about what black people care about and I’m black btw
Facts they don’t even care anymore
B(lack) stay that then
You wont have legal standing claiming something that ain't you lol black means pale albino aka public debtor 💎
Black or aboriginal American?
An who's the real Americans
Vote Trump 2024🇺🇸
You can’t vote for someone in prison.

@@milhouse14 this comment aged well....
@@remnant8898 It will
@milhouse14 yeah, when his "convictions" get overturned during appeals.
I mean inner city hood folk should loose their rights
White supremacists go first. Oh sorry, you don’t like being called that. White conservatives then.
Lose is a verb that means “to fail to win, to misplace, or to free oneself from something or someone.”
Loose is an adjective that means “not tight.”
Why should anyone listen to you when you can't even get something as basic as this right?
Sounds stupid.
Black folks just go register to vote ..go vote who is stooping you...
Much of huh???🤔 why the lies…?
Why don't the schools teach this to our kids?
Mental slavery
Because they want then democrats
