Why Blacks left the South and why many returned
zhlédnutí 138Před 14 dny
Between 1915 and 1970, approximately 6 million African Americans left their homes in the Southern United States and went in search of opportunity. Some moved West but the vast majority of them went to cities and towns in the North, changing the complexion and culture of the places they left behind and shaping the new places they would call home. And in modern times, many of these individuals or...

I seen a opossum drinking white lightning, after that the race was on!
23:04 and I eat 100% of the cheeseburgers that make their way to my stomach lol really tho wtf is he talking about 🤔
Her name is beautiful 😍
Wow
Erasing our history right in front of us.
Here in Florida, I leave Possums alone. They ain't hurting anything. Not like those damn Armadillos!
I love possums… I feed them Every nite…they are like Rocky…they don’t quit….
My spirit animal
Possoms are so dope. I used to "have" one. He would always be eating my birdseed, and when I would come outside, he would run under my car and then come back. unfortunately I haven't seen him in a long time he hurt his leg and I think it killed him. 😢
U.S.A....Antichrist nation...The BEAST
The billionaire’s non-working spouse that funds this opossum sanctuary sure is spending their spouse’s money on, well, something, that’s for sure.
I just learned so much this morning just because I find a big stink bug and I wanted to put it outside safely
Good info. EZ Clone has good Propagator Plugs that are similar and work well. I do use their Cloning Machine, but the Plugs work with any Method.
Oh the opossum is on the top of my list. Followed by skunks racoons rats and mice. Rabbit and hare.
I wanna kiss you all over intil the night never ends

Take a drink every time he says sixty million. I have opossums around my home and we constantly startle each other. Hssssss!
Rip Mel, you are going to be missed so much!
It is impossible anything popped itself into existence; gravity, quarks, centrifugal force, light, carbon, water and all. It is impossible those began their own existence, and close enough in time and space to cooperate in modifying themselves to higher states. And without consciousness. The most unworkable construct is foisted onto the most unteachable by the most untaught.
I love Possums
Bravo VPM! I love your approach to 8x10 large format photography👍!!!
LOL @ Hillary Clinton Snatch being in the title 🤣🤣
Nah, it won't bother the grid not everyone plugs in at the same time!
I wonder why this video was recommended to me ...
Well at least he taught blacks people to read so they could read the Bible back then. 🤷🏽♀️sad they took his statue down but hopefully the history can stay alive.
Nuclear energy = problem solved
Over the past year, I watched all of 'The Walton's' seasons in it's entirety- The show first aired in the early 1970's when I was a teenager and continued throughout my young adulthood years, but I never watched it then. I was too busy being a teen and young adult back when it first aired- Today, I am now in my 70's, and decided to go on the journey and watched finally, 'The Walton's'. - The series was able to bring me to come to terms of what I personally have missing and yearning for during our current tumultuous times; a sense of values, traditions, and community in steadfastness. It's a yearning for what I feel is missing today.
Meanwhile the rest of us will be told to turn off the A/C. Ridiculous. Build more nuclear power plants.
It’s about control. Don’t be California
Grade A click bait 🪤
so the story kinda makes it sound like the charging stations are free, its all part of the scam, everything free when you buy an ev
I think he'd be better listened to If they would simply just call them possums.. the O is proper was dropped in the name long ago.... sounds too geeky.. They are Very handy to clean up dead animals ....
why do i want to lower my fuel cost
🤣 lower fuel costs, go 50k in debt to get an electric car. Makes hella sense 🤣
Yeah right not everyone charges at the same time every day. Make chargers able to lock out if grid operators send the say so!? Who buy e cars... Are already into solar, or other systems. They're just complaining. To raise your rates!? Maybe
I love them!
Once I found a opossum at a cabin on a weekend long vacation Little guy was the size of my hand (i was like 14) and I just kept giving him bits of food a little outside the camp area cause I didn't want them getting too used to running in for a snack, they were so sweet I kinda wish it was legal to keep them here
Most EVs can be charged off-peak and not impact the grid. The risks are low. Why use inflammatory rhetoric?
Nicely said
Votes, tax increases, and to pander to the delusional progressives 🤷
😂
Someone has to give is a reason for more coal plants.
Remove all battery from gas cars / trucks.. thats electric battery..
@fernyv4368 Right...thats the same thing.
@@fernyv4368stop using petroleum based products. Don't be a hypocrite.
this is the whole point. won't be able to drive if you can't charge your vehicle. it's about control and redistribution of wealth since these controlling politicians and elites will invest in stocks of the "green" companies given government grants.
That was really good! I didn't realize they were fainting all this time !?
Clean energy? It comes from coal. Electricity isn't just pulled out of thin air.
Why dont, gas cars remove the battery from the car..?? Gas power but needs a electric battery..
Clearly you know how cars work@@fernyv4368
Frasier's Dad really knows a lot about opossums 😂👍🏻
They are destroying everyone's grid. But that has been the plan from the beginning. If people can travel, they won't believe the government lies!
This electric car plan is so not thought through. It’s planned out as well as Biden planned his bidenomics.
Ofosslils of possoms.
