I really want to thank you for teaching me to use the terms "enslaved person" and "enslavers". I first found this here on your channel, and I think it is an excellent way to refer to nonconsensual historical slavery - it foregrounds what was done to them, and makes us look at it, while reinforcing their personhood as opposed to defining them by what was done to them. I'm encouraging all my friends to use those terms. Thank you. (I'm also a reenactor.)
as a fellow african american reenactor, this is awesome! you explain everything so well, and i love the questions! keep it going, definitely subscribed!!
I just discovered your channel and had to go back and start at the beginning. Thank you for this valuable resource. I look forward to further researching a lot of things that you inevitably bring to my attention 💕💕
Just found your channel. I love history and this is very interesting. You obviously have a gift and your voice is so easy to listen to. Thank you for sharing with children.
This is very interesting and informative. Hard questions. Thank you for your candor and insight! Oh, I almost forgot, Abby Cox's video called "Answering Your Questions From 'I WORE 18TH-CENTURY CLOTHING EVERY DAY FOR 5 YEARS' (while sewing)" sent me to your channel.
"Farbs" or "polyester soldiers", are reenactors who spend relatively little time and/or money achieving authenticity with regard to uniforms, accessories, or period behavior.
I'm mixed, native and white, and I'd like to reenact in a native capacity. Any tips on how to find the real history. Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question, but I'm just starting out.
I went to Plimouth Plantation in Massachusetts a couple years back and I was impressed with what they do. There are a few videos from the Indian (Wampanoag) group on RUclips. (The modern town is Plymouth while the historic park is Plimouth.)
If you're being serious, not in combat, but due to being unfit old fatbodies in wool having a heatstroke. They only fire blanks and melee combat, if it ever happens, is strictly safety regulated and the only actual injury I have seen was a gentle powder burn. Only medical conditions which would have happened anyway.

I love that you called the little pot a pipkin!! Pipkin is my maiden name, and I keep some of these little pots simply because they are pipkins.
