Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I blows my fucking mind that racists will do barbaric shit like this and then have the gall to insist that white people are βmore civilizedβ than people of color.
Donoteat also has a good video on Black Wall Street
Poverty is no accident or tragedy. It was invented and to this day serves its purpose well.
Hey, let's not post anything from Extra Credits here, as one of its founders James Portnow has some pretty credible abuse allegations from one of the people who worked with him, see source here.
Edit: I have been informed that James Portnow has since left Extra Credits, and as such don't think anything is wrong with watching their content any longer, even though it seems that his scripts will still be used for future episodes, but if he has left then I assume that he isn't financially benefiting from the channel and so it is alright.
So just as a preface I haven't watched the video nor do I know about what happened in Tulsa to be considered a scholar, but these guys get a loooooooot of stuff wrong on their history stuff. Like, a lot a lot. Check out r/badhistory and search Extra Credits and you'll have a billion results. Tl;dr they don't give sources unless pressed, the sources aren't always the best, and they put a ton of stock into secondary sources, which isn't appropriate historical study. They also tend to ignore alternate historiographic theories because they want to avoid 'quibbling over sources' which is like 80% of historical study.
Moments you'd go back in time to with a helicopter
