The American Civil War explained
zhlédnutí 701KPřed 4 lety
The American Civil War (1861-1865) was fought between the United States of America and the Confederate States of America. More than a war to prevent the secession of the southern states, it became the symbol of a fight for equality of rights, liberty, and an end to oppression. Some men that fought in this conflict such as Abraham Lincoln or Ulysses S. Grant went down in History as some of Ameri...

    Hi! I really like the video, I'm always looking for good summaries and overviews to help introduce topics and I think this does a good job. I also think the simple and clean visuals are great. My only real critique would be, it seems you mostly left out any mention of the campaigns in the Middle East like Mesopotamia and Sinai. They feel significant enough for a quick mention but really, other than that, great stuff.

    The South was far from broke, Cotton was King and the northern states placed ever increasing tariffs, if it was only about slaves why did Lincoln wait 3 years to sign the Emancipation proclamation?

    • @zenever0
      @zenever0 Před 16 dny

      The total tax generation for import tariffs for all northern ports, including New York, was $48.3 million. New York City collected $34.9 million in tariff revenues. The entire South generated only $4.0 million in tariff revenues, with New Orleans being the southern port that collected the most, at $3.1 million. New Orleans was captured without resistance by the Union in 1862.

      The disinformation of democrats/republicans is **white supremacy propaganda** to distract from the issue of the Confederate traitors preserving the infernal institution of African slavery. (1860) White southern conservatives committed treason and formed the confederacy to preserve African slavery and white supremacy. (1865) White southern conservatives make up the KKK. (1865-1890) White southern conservatives make up black codes. (1877) Poll tax, literacy tests and registration referral is instituted across the south to disenfranchise black voters *(Georgia)* The term “grandfathered” is first used, exempting whites from all of this. (1883) Civil Rights Cases, Supreme Court votes (8-1) the Civil Rights Act of 1875 unconstitutional, ruling that the 14th Amendment only applied to state actions, not private individuals or businesses, leading to the legitimization of racial segregation and the establishment of Jim Crow laws in the South. (1884) Black citizens are barred from juries *(Mississippi)* (1896) Plessy vs. Ferguson Supreme Court case upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the "separate but equal" doctrine, legitimizing the Jim Crow laws *(Louisiana)* (1896-1968) White southern conservatives make up Jim Crow laws. (1954) Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court case overturned Plessy vs. Ferguson, ruling that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional *(Kansas)* (1954-1968) White southern conservatives oppose civil rights. (1957) Little Rock Nine incident, *Arkansas* Governor resists federal law by activating the national guard to keep black students out. President Eisenhower directs the 101st Airborne to enforce and oversee desegregation. (1967-2023) White southern conservatives oppose interracial marriages. (2001-2013) White southern conservatives oppose gay marriage. (2003) *Georgia* changes its state flag to be the First National Flag of the Confederacy. (2023-2024) Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion (DEI) is opposed by white southern conservatives. We’ll never forget that Confederates are traitors and white supremacists 🇺🇸

    • @unadin4583
      @unadin4583 Před 5 měsíci

      The red and blue color scheme did not come about until the 2000 election. Before that time, the media arbitrarily chose red or blue for election coverage, usually using blue for the incumbent president's party. Also, if Republicans gave their lives to free the slaves, does that mean that Democrats gave their lives to defeat NAZI Germany?
