Women's Experience Under Slavery: Crash Course Black American History #11

Our ancestors were actually PRISONERS OF WAR....

😑

Indigenous Americans should get their lands back, and Black Americans should receive reparations. It is always the RIGHT TIME to do the RIGHT THING

✨🙏🏼✨

Thanks that was really informative 🙏

It’s amazing what these black women had to go through for me to be able to have the opportunities and freedoms that I have now.

During ENSLAVEMENT.

Slavery never really got abolished, now we are all slaves to our mortgages and desires

Racist,sexist and discrimination. That’s all slavery was in this world.

I am subscribe great channel just found it now

Thank You Brother

Great videos. I’m learning so much. Thanks.

What a shame to inflicting that type of a harsh treatment to those poor women; on type of it and selling them at market bargain prices was very dehumanizing and I don’t care about what eras it was!

Honestly descendants of the families that enslaved people back then should be fined and the families of the people that were enslaved should be compensated. Equality is not enough. Compensation should be the proper way to says I'm sorry.

it's disgusting that my country has done nothing to make reparations for slavery

That's Nebraska not america.

I love vids like this.
They help the unimaginable crimes of slavery become more understanding.
It's terrible to listen to, but we must not become numb or advert our eyes from the suffering of people in the past or today.

Ain't I x7 Ain't I smokin strong, Ain't I puttin on, ain't I rockin yays, ain't my money long
Ain't I x7 Ain't I in the ville, ain't I on the hill, ain't I on a mil, ain't I ain't I real

White woman here, trying to understand the shit African Americans went through. . I love history

So many views but very little comments.

So what has changed instead of collars on our necks they use handcuffs instead of making us work in the field they give is minimal wage and have us work 8 hrs a day modem labor

They been separating fathers from mothers and mothers from children for centuries and when they could no longer do it legally they now hunt us down and kill us in the streets or put our men in prison 2022

How were so many of these people so well spoken/written with what I would have though would be limited education at best?

It’s a shame their genius was wasted on slavery and menial labour. We’ll never get to know what they could have achieved if given the chance

Things need to stay alive so we our people don't forget and we don't go backwards to be own by anyone else as a property and stay Free and own our own business nobody else steal our ideas for any reason we got to stop using drugs so we'll be able to have the same as Mexicans and Chinese and Japanese and Abbric own business like we used to

Hi nefertiti 💎🧿

Nice video

How cruel these people were? ?

Black American history, otherwise known as American history

Remember doing a genetic dna tests as a class for a project. The 8 or 9 African Americans in the class were absolutely shocked to see they all had European ancestry (I believe ranging from 15% to 24%) I’m only half African American…. My father is an East African immigrant but I even had 14% Western European dna results. It was intensely confusing, until our teach explained the leading theory suggests most of the mysterious European dna in African Americans came during slavery. He said genetic studies done across the US find that every descendant of slaves has European dna. That’s A LOT of rape!

Black women are strong, beautiful and powerful! 💪🏽💪🏾💪🏿

I hope these videos are being shown in classes

Thank you for speaking and teaching about my Black sisters. Women are so often overlooked, especially BIPOC women.

These series always teach me so much more than college classes ever did. This is seeing history from a personal point of view, instead of a broad lens and it makes it so much more impactful.

I knew this episode was going to make my heart heavy.

Love your videos thanks for the info this history needs to be in schools as well

Outstanding.

This is like Sophie's Choice meets the Color Purple. Absolutely horrifying stuff, but important that it be taught.

I really like that this host’s speech rate is a little slower as it helps me to keep up as a non-native speaker :)

Thank you sincerely for the trigger warning, I know this is sensitive content. But that might be why these videos are necessary, because you can either deal with history or address it - and people will often take the path of least resistance. The toughest road can be the right road, and in this case, it's both. Thank you, Crash Course! And keep up the good work.

There's a book that I've read three times and it was about an enslaved woman hiding from her master for several years. If interested it's called Letters from a Slave Girl: The Story of Harriet Ann Jacobs. I highly recommend this book.

These videos are so educational and the content well organized. Thank you guys at Crash Course.

Even their own accounts weren't truly their own if they were being filtered and put in a dialect that they didn't even speak.

This is very well done and very accurate. I would highly recommend the narratives of both Sojourner Truth and Harriot Jacobs in the "Slave Narratives" from Library of America. However, there is also the narrative of William Wells Brown in the same volume where he discovers that his "wife" prefers to remain as the mistress of their former master.

Thank You CrashCourse for doing this!! Thank You!

I'm glad Crash Course is here to teach accurate history, especially considering the fact that schools want to remove anything that may make the US look bad.

And America still hasn't made good on this tragedy.

hi Crash Course, hi everyone " such a
insitful story, well worded learned a lot", :)

Slavery was a horrible thing. I'm glad it's over.

👍👍👍👍👍
