- Hi friends, happy Thursday!
Welcome to the Dark History podcast. Today, we are going to talk about how the media’s reporting on a basketball superstar’s overdose kicked President Regan’s War on Drugs into overdrive and led to incredibly harsh punishments for crack users vs. cocaine. Even though crack and cocaine are the same damn drug.
I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more dark history.
You can find Dark History podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you listen to your podcasts, and every Thursday here on my CZcams for the visual side of things.

Bailey is out here doing what the public education system should have been doing this whole time. Respect. 🙌
Shes our Dark History Professor.
I have learnt more out of school than I ever did in school.
Right?!
Teachers get fired when they tell some tales....
Facts!
That 74% increase in jail sentences is freaking insane since pedophiles, rapists, and abusers are getting freaking 5 years, or nothing!
And… and!!! The music industry had its hand in private prison complex! Getting rich of both industries.
Or letting the ones stated above out because the pRiSoNs ArE fUlL 🙄
She should do an episode on the corrupt prison system in America
@@caitlincarney578 yeah, true. I don't think any prison system in the world is without corruption though.
I say this at least twice a week.
Our justice system is so broken & needs so much improvement/change/restructuring/etc that I will not see it in my lifetime. I don’t if it will ever become a priority the government is forced to fix.
I just realized Bailey has basically become our own real life Elvira, the pretty woman with badass makeup and dark hair that tells us scary stuff and is immensely cool.
Hi, blond Elvira here. I agree with your statement. She is so smart and clever and cool 😎
I was just thinking this last week!
I just thought this TODAY
@@mirogorjan9633 hx
I was just thinking it before i i came across your post.
As black man who grew up in Brooklyn NY this is something that I learned about at an early age. This channel is dope.
Can we just add Bailey to the school curriculum like she could literally be the dark twisted miss frizzle we all need ❤️👏🏻
Love this comment ❤️
I'm so into dark Ms. Frizzle played by Bailey!
YES! Bailey’s school of TRUTH!
Awww I loved the Magic School Bus!
This would be perfect.
You know Bailey making mad money because she be getting sponsored left and right ! It’s fitting because she’s extremly unproblematic and she doesn’t have to be crude to be funny . I’m so glad I discovered this woman
She's going to be large. She should run for office.
right??? she’s my favorite & i need her to become even more popular, my girl rly deserves it🥰
Re: sponsors left and right:
There's this podcast called Distractible. They have 1 - 3 sponsor segments each episode, each segment with 3 - 6 sponsors each, without repeats.
And I'm like: "Why are companies pouncing on a podcast of 3 dudes with ADHD spewing mostly unfiltered comedy?"
@@paisleesheppard5629 tf ..
@paislee because it's Mark[iplier]. And hilarious 😂
How has Netflix not offered Bailey a show?! Like hello you can watch her while you’re cleaning, doing makeup, with friends and family, sleeping, an alarm! Like hello I’d soooo watch it
100%
As a history teacher I applaud Bailey! Thank you for making history accessible, interesting, and relevant to people!
"And that's why no one drank Pepsi" Bailey, you're the best.
I think I'm Africa it still had coke in it or China one of them
Like Sam Elliot said, “Pepsi is never an option “!!!
I like Pepsi more than coke 😂
@@KourttneyL Pepsi is way too sweet , perhaps it’s those children’s body parts they add to it
@@KourttneyL me too always have. Plus i lovveeeee mountain dew and thats not a Coca-Cola product.
My Nana used to party at Studio 54. She epitomized "live fast, die young". She left me a whole closet full of amazing vintage dresses. Love you Nana.
I'm jealous
Total legend😍😍
Vintage dresses? That is so awesome! I feel like I lived in the 60’s or early 70’s in another life lol.
Your nana is iconic ✨
This is beautiful! What a fabulous Nana!
Lenny was my cousin on my father side. My mom would tell me stories about my dad and him hanging together all the time. It’s surreal hearing people speak so highly of him because I never got to meet him. RIP Lenny ❤️.
Do you mean Lemmy?
@@dannydarkense5500Who's Lemmy?
Came here from the cannabis episode! I’m doing a dark history binge, so far it’s been 3 days and I feel like I have so much more knowledge than before these 3 days
The scariest thing about this dark "history" is that it is still going on today...
The same companies that sold it are still in the business
One day we will be part of dark history 😬
What about the money all millionaires are making off covid.. 2021! It's a fact that the 1% made money while the rest of the world lost
And that's how ppl get scared and take the vaccin....
Just as this story and many other, to scare people...
@@pamelalee9189 It’s a fact OK give me one example
The fact we get to watch you for free, blows my freaking mind. You deserve a show on Discovery or Netflix.
ID Channel!!!
Yaaas! Netflix!
She deserves exactly where she is - in control of the show! I don't get why everyone says this, the show would be drastically changed
@@cheepymcpeepy Oh I do agree with you, she should just stay where she is so she can have way more control and basically be her own boss. I’m more so shocked no one has offered her a series on Netflix. That was all. Hope you have a great night/day wherever you are and stay safe.
Right!!! I need this in my life
When she says, “Honestly. Take. Me. Back!” I laughed too hard.
😂😂😂😂
Oml 😂
*Not an insult*
Does anyone else listen to Bailey and fall asleep? No? Just me?! Okay!!!
Like her voice literally soothes me to sleep! I love her!
I do as well. Only thing that helps me get to sleep
I do every single night going on 3 years now lol
Me I do😂😂😂 her stories are everything
I do 😂
Yes! It helps my racing thoughts because it’s interesting so I actually focus on it and eventually fall asleep
All of Baileys Dark History hair is ICONIC
Bailey is just iconic. Periodt.
Isn’t it! Very old Hollywood glamour. Love it!
It’s a half wig, y’all!!!! She mentioned it in her older videos. I now own several. They are amazing. Buy some.
IKR ❤ it's so freaking cute
I’d love to know the name of the colour it’s fab 😍😍
I am LOVING how Bailey is becoming more and more comfortable with this show. She's finding her groove and style and I'm so proud of her ❤️❤️❤️
Same
Same. She feels more comfortable and natural which is lovable.
Girl, YES! 🍻
HONESTLYYYY😭😭🤩
shes splendid
It’s the writers figuring out that she’s amazing as is and doesn’t need additional obnoxious flair and sass, and random interruptions by the lighting guy. Bailey is a gem in and of herself and that’s why people like her.
I’m only at a minute and 18 seconds, but the way she said “after I watched my friend Martha do a bunch of blow” Like a mom at a PTA meeting just made me lose it
That was honestly the best part for me😂
Why’d she have to call out Marta like that tho 😂
Martha Stuart;)
😂😂😂
My house came from a Sears catalog. It’s about 90 years old. Back then you ordered your house kit and they shipped everything you needed to build your house. Including an instruction manual 😅
The black community has been talking about this for years, thank you!
Scandinavia, too!
Yet they still voted for Biden who created the 1994 crime bill
No one made an effort to change it
@@ashasun6620 like who specifically? because most of us only have so much power. even when millions and millions of people want something, the government doesn't give it to us (even if they said they would)
@@kyleallen1858 yep... but considering the democratic party literally created the KKK im beginning to think the vast majority of the black community wants things to stay the way it is..and before anyone comes for me im mixed race. Part black, Part Blackfoot & Cherokee with a dash of white lol so dont start
Thank you for this episode, Bailey. As an African American woman, it means a lot that you are bringing awareness to these subjects. We love you. 💖
Yaassss
Yes and she's speaking facts too!!!
Agreed!!! She really answered the major question for me. Like which is worse and why!!??
@@TheDivaSpot101 and yet, the black community overwhelmingly voted for the curator of the 1994 crime bill Mr Joe Biden
@@kyleallen1858 because they didn’t want to vote for a dude who’s openly talked ish and dogged everyone outside of straight Yt males 🤷🏻♀️🙄
So as a recovering addict I didn't know if I could sit thru this video. It has been 2 amd 1/2 years now . Absolutely enjoyed and no triggers thru this video. Love ur videos
Congratulations !!
Congratulations❤️ I'm proud of you❤️ keep strong
@@skyjohnson1107 thank u going on 3 years in June
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Great job!!
Now it's been 3 years and about 3 mths thanks
Since you've already done a video on the DuPont chemical poisoning, I figure you've scratched the surface. It'd be really cool if you dedicated a whole dark history video to the DuPont family. That hole is deep and dark. They have so much power and influence to this day.
She did it's dark history Ep1
Tell me more about horrible rich families that rule the world.
@@vannahray9773 that was a specific event. I'm talking about the family as a whole. It goes so far beyond P&G. They're some of the oldest money in the USA and the cover-ups are endless.
I've thought about this, having her covering these sneaky families. The DuPonts, the Murdaughs, the Clinton's, etc. I just don't want her to get so deep in revealing truths that she magically unalives herself with 2 bullets to the back of the head. You know what I mean? Lol. People who dig that deep have a habit of dropping like flies. 😬
Please please do Christopher Columbus “founding America” for all your Native American fans please. Thanksgiving and trail of tears, and today’s “reservations” also are some pretty insightful topics right off the top of my head.
That would be a great topic. I'm also interested in the stairs in the woods phenomenon. Just what is that about??
Yes please!
This would be a great video
I think 🤔 most ppl know about that I would hope. I think she is doing more stuff on stuff the is uncovered tht we don’t know about.
Ugh that wretch of a man
Bailey I appreciate that you tackle topics associated with race and racism, racial territory, etc...and you do it so eloquently, honestly, and unapologetically....Great work!
Agree 💯 Bailey is AMAZING
Is it frowned upon to use Bailey’s Dark History as a homeschool curriculum for my elementary school kids?? Cuz… I am.
Do it. I’m trying to figure out what I can use in a middle school history classroom…
Awesome!
😂
My kids love her too
Teach them the truth. You know public schools don’t do that.
Unfortunately why happens in “high crime areas” is something called “the broken window theory.” Bailey please do a video about the broken window theory. It’s very interesting
Bailey: "Ba-Da-Ba-Ba-Bah, Ain't That Some Sh*t!"
I died laughing 😅🤣😂💀
36:30 🤣
I loved that too...😂😂💜
Same😂😂
That was epic 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I was looking for this comment 😭😭
As a African American person, I totally appreciate you. Like nbs you are really appreciated
RS!! WE HERE TOO BAILEY♥️
Truth!
Exactly! I appreciate how she NEVER shy away from shedding light on these kinds of subject
I second this! Absolutely love her!🤎🤎🤎
Rightttt
Bailey could do a episode on the history of toe fungus and I'd probably still watch like every episode no matter the topic is such a treat
"We know people were still hittin' the slopes." I lol'd.
You should talk about the horrors that occurred in factories during the industrial revolution and how it was a turning point in the concept of work-life balance, eventually leading to the current toxicity of grind culture, which has been normalized
The industrial revolution is apparently where the “8 hours of sleep per night” schedule came from too! And how much the sleep industry is worth due to humans not really meant to sleep that way apparently. I’m probably getting some of this wrong but that would all be an interesting topic for Bailey.
Reading the FLSA of 1938 and comparing it to how we regard (or disregard) minimum wage and child labor today is enough to make you want to pull your hair out. Only the top tier can afford to protect their children from this government.
@@gracielouwho2369 and how it is legal to pay disabled people below minimum wage in the US
@@maryssa8593 especially since many have sleep issues just as Bailey does sometimes. Delayed Sleep Phase people fighting against a 'normal' time clock put in place so many years ago.
This is a great idea. The Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire would be a perfect example of the horrible conditions people endured and the lack of safety regulations during that time.
Hi Bailey! Just a suggestion for dark history - I would love to see the radium girls get more attention. They were the unwitting champions of safety regulations for workplaces... in the worst way possible. Their bravery for speaking out when they literally had radiation sickness FROM THEIR JOBS was incredible.
Summary: they didn't know the risks of radium and were hired to paint airplane dials, watches, etc with it so they'd glow. To increase the precision of their painting, they were taught to "lip point" their radium covered brushes - roll and pinch the brush between their lips to bring it to a fine point.
Just a suggestion, but it's definitely an underpublicized and VERY dark part of US history.
Yes! I would love to hear her tell it. The pain and disfigurement those women went through was unimaginable!
Yes that is a very interesting story! I'd love it if Bailey made one on it!
Yep, I've read about that story. It is so sad. 💔
Excuse me, what did I just read? 😟
There's also a great movie on Netflix called Radium Girls.
Bailey out here being the hottest history teacher that never existed at any of our schools!!!✌️
.. Bailey is definitely the girl everyone should be when we grow up✨️ I love this type of setting for learning BEST!
I love how the background decor has gone from like, 'some LED candles to be spooky' to full on 'We raided an antique shop and also hired Christine McConnell to help us choose wallpaper'. GREAT taste this woman has.
She is so great
This is background for Dark History the MMM Mondays have a different one :))
She’s probably in a studio 🥰
This is her Dark History room, she uses and diff background for her MMM videos.
@Emerson yessss a collab between them would be amazing!!
Bailey is really out here giving us such interesting topics from true crime to history stuff that should be known when its not, doing so hard researching all the topics she talks about so much and even deleting old videos that give wrong information. Shocked she ain't at 10M subs by now, like she is so amazing. BAILEY U ARE AMAZING!! 💖
I seen sumone lowk key hating made a video of it & her whole mystery Monday videos.
I disliked the video right away..
Because she's bringing awareness to alot of things
I agree! I love her ...she’s funny and smart !!!
@@NOBODY-fz3im bye bye 👋
I would sit in there and read. It would be relaxing and I feel quite.
@@NOBODY-fz3im Yet you keep coming and commenting!
Stop finding stuff to be offended by, Jesus H. Christ!
I’ve really learned more from Bailey Sarian than I did in school and I’m here for it
That congressman saying “we don’t have the big time dealers in Louisville” is a straight up lie. My dad and his siblings all grew up here in the 70’s/80’s and boy….Lemme tell ya they definitely had big time dealers 😂🤦🏼♀️
yeah but not king pins
"That is why no one drinks pepsi."
There you go girl! The best line. LOL
But... But I love pepsi... I never drink Coca-Cola 🙁🙁
@@alexandraaa1399 😯😯😯. Wait this is rare. Ppl like u exist? Non coca-cola..ist?
@@artwithasparkle1691 yeah 🙁 me&my bf both. Pepsi has another taste, idk how to explain. I don't love plain pepsi though, I like Pepsi Twist, the one with lemon in it. 👀
Except Pepsi wasnt created until 1965. So no, thats not why people tend to choose coke. I dont know actually writes these podcasts (the last episode was the first time they Bailey had writing credits), but they tend to be misleading. Leaving out or barely touching on important context in these stories.
@@alexandraaa1399 do they still make that?
Bailey is making me look so educated and cultured when I attend gatherings with all my imaginary friends
🙏🏼💀🖤🖤🖤
Why is this the funniest thing I read in a while?
Ditto!
😂 😂 😂
Literally😂😂
Same ❤️
I love the way she tells stories! "A mandatory minimum sentence, what is that?"....people that live in VA are well versed!
Wondering if this Canadian dark History would be a story you’d be interested in doing?
There were 150,000 first nation’s, Inuit and Métis children that attended 139 residential schools in Canada. In the last few months over 5,000 children’s bodies have been discovered. Probably thousands more left to be found. The last school in Canada didn’t close until 1996.
I’m in Ontario and I was thinking the same thing. It needs to be talked about in every way possible. The world needs to know
I’m over here in Italy and I’ve heard about this story! It’s nuts! Poor kids. I also red a lot about how some indigenous kids were stripped from their families and readopted. Poor little ones..
Edit grammar
Same thing in the US, they had "boarding schools" and made the kids change their name, learn Christianity, and couldn't speak their native languages. They did the same thing very recently in Hawaii, but not they pay them to perform for the White vacationers 😔 native people really get treated like garbage
@@lynnweishaupt2461 my last visit 4 years ago to the Main Island, the natives were not friendly and I gave them a wide berth, with much respect, I could have imagined it but I think they acknowledged/appreciated it. They are NOT used to it.
It's insane that this happened all over the world, same thing with the samepeople in scandinavia.
No one:
Bailey: “hello fresh is so easy to use!”
Also Bailey: “ I burnt the carrots” 😂😂😂😂🥺
😂
I couldn’t get her code to even work with hello fresh, it said code expired 20 minutes after she posted it
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 she likes crispy foods
@@buffytimmons8513 🤣
I love her 😍
I seriously wish history teachers put forth even 10% of the effort you put into these videos. I have learned and retained more information during this series then i ever have in a history class
💯 thats real.
I teach American History in Middle School and my lessons are definitely flowing with a Bailey Sarian vibe lately and it is awesome. Very engaging!
It's because a specific curriculum is forced on teachers and children. They're not allowed to teach the truth. School is structured to indoctrinate and teach us to obey authority, sit still for 8 hours 5 days a week and not talk back. Even the teachers hands are tied.
But I do agree, her energy is very engaging and authentic.
I used to think I hated history. Turns out I just hated school and their version of history.
I ficking love this woman, she's over here doin God's work educating the masses
It's the Year 3000 from Busted, who faded into obscurity and now I love Bailey even more! 😍
Yeah but Jonas brothers did a version of it too
TOPIC SUGGESTIONS: The Diné (Navajo) children being taken from their families and forced into US Gov't boarding schools where they were not allowed to speak their native language, live their culture, or see their families (this was happening until only about 50 years ago); and the Japanese internment camps run by the US during World War II. They are both along the same lines of some sad, dark history of the US. How does that saying go: what we don't learn from history we are doomed to repeat. I think that especially applies to the bad choices!
Loving these podcasts so much! ♥ Keep up the awesome work!
I would like to hear about Lake Lanier it's the most haunted man made lake with over 700 deaths.
🤨 I’ve spent too many days at Lake Lanier when I was younger….how did I not know this👀
Yea it was an all black city that got flooded out right?
Yesssss
so interesting! i’ve never heard this, would love for her to do one of these episodes on that!!
everybody from Georgia knows to stay away, scary ish goes on there
It's so pleasing to see her w much more comfortable you've become in your later episodes of Dark History compared to the earlier ones. And the whole production and quality of this show... You all deserve awards seriously
Please do the history of LSD! Please, please, please! 🍒
(and don't miss MK Ultra)
yesss
Yes!!!
Yes!!
I feel like MK Ultra would get taken down
Read this as, "please do all of this on LSD!" 🤣 I mean, it would be an interesting podcast for sure!
I just want to hang out in that room! It looks sooo bomb! Coke = coffee in my old life too 🥴🤣💯
Love you Jessica!!!!!!! You are an inspiration!!!!
I love you so much Jess🥺
😭😭😭😭😭 the crossover I didn’t know I needed
Yay my two fave CZcamsrs know of each other!
I WOULD DIE FOR YOU TWO TO COLLABORATE OH MY GOODNESS!
"Incarceration Nation" is exactly the kind of America we live in now, you're so right!!!
I can’t get enough of this woman
I love how you’re using your platform to bring awareness to these issues. This and the birth control episode alone really shows how corrupt our system is and there’s something about the way you deliver information that I feel will reach those who may be blind to it.
Totally agree!!! It’s such ⏃ great thing to see
I think you're doing award-worthy journalism Bailey! Your Dark History brings to light so many things that need to be discussed in terms of social justice. And the way you tell the story is so engaging. Another great episode full of things I sort of knew, and things I NEVER knew!
Just so you know, Africa is the only country in the world that still prescribe qualudes, America replaced them with Soma which is just as bad.
@@vonsanson3120 first of all, Africa isn’t a country. Second of all, quaaludes are still prescribed in many countries. Please go away.
@@vonsanson3120 just so you know Africa is not a country🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
There is no reason to be hateful but I do believe in treating others as you want to be treated so I hope people treat you just as hateful. I read that on the internet a few years ago and so I shared, I am guessing with your attitude that you know from experience.
This is well said!!
"I mean sign me up, you don't have to tell me more" with the hand flip and the eye toss really got me. I just love your delivery!
I'm so happy you started, Dark History, because you're bringing everything to the light. Thank you for these uploads, I love learning these dark truths 🖤
Bailey if there more teachers like you, we'd have ALOT more honor students!! You make history so interesting and fun while keeping your audience engaged and wanting more!!
The McDonald's theme was everything 🤣🤣
Education system is messed up too, teachers can’t tell the full truth about American history.
I'm out here pausing my cell phone to applaud loudly at it. Bailey is the gd best.
Here, here! I completely agree with you! She'd have been THE DOPEST teacher ever!
Get it? Dopest? No? I stop...🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤣🤣🤣
There's math and sketches to explain it even!!!
I have said this for a while! The sentencing discrepancy is cra cra!! Thank you !
I’m usually a silent fan, but I just have to tell you how much I love your videos 🙌🏻 you are my FAVORITE person on the internet and I’ll watch anything you put out. Thank you so much for putting so much effort into all of your videos! It really does make a difference ❤️
Bailey been giving us black history with this podcast
Right and I’m here for it
She really is we love unproblematic queen
Yes!!! In everyone of her stories. The school system could never
Isn’t it fantastic!! I love her for it.
We love to see it
If I was a teacher in school I would play these “dark history” videos on my smart board for my students to watch and listen😇
honestly in many states now you probably wouldn't be allowed since this would most likely fall under CRT. This is how schools should teach kids though.
Tf is a smart board🤣😅
@@krittifate5472 it's basically just a giant ipad chalkboard.
It would just be all bleeps because of the gd word she's heavily using
Would def make history more attention keeping for kids
“So if you’re going to put one in your trousers, pick the powder.” 😉 Love your sarcastic humor 😍
I wish my history teachers had taught history like you!! Oh I would have loved history in my younger years!!
I just wanna take this time out to thank Bailey for all that she’s taught me! Love you Bailey and your genuine realness. 😘
And while she makes it extremely entertaining, fun and interesting, a boatload of research, planning and prep goes into every one of her episodes. Thank you, Bailey. You ROCK!
"you ROCK". Pun intended? XD
Bailey and her team.
I love it here, getting a dose of Bailey twice a week is a real treat.
Agreed. She gets me through the work week!
Bailey doing these videos is honestly so amazing. She makes these really complex social issues so easy to consume by people with all levels of understanding. Love her.
I like how you have a doc with all of your resources. A few years ago, I wrote an essay about the corruption in the US criminal justice system. I plan on revisiting that essay and improve it. And I feel that this is important to talk about. They essay was originally for school, but I want to redo it to educate myself and hopefully educate some people in my life.
Do you know that when you go to rehab, they tell you, "You probably won't stay sober this time, it usually takes 3-4 revisits before you can stay sober"? That's because they want you to come back. How else are they going to continue making money? I've been clean over 20 years, and it pi**es me off every time I hear this from a newbie fresh out of rehab. Rehab only works if they are truly ready. If rehab's were free for everybody, I would be more inclined to support them. I never went to rehab, so am proof you can do it if you WANT to.
I was addicted to Adderall for 2 years. I never went to rehab. I went to church (even tho in an atheist) they actually helped me and even let me stay in a guest house where i stayed until i felt i was fine to leave
You are a f***ing Rockstar! 💛💛💛
I have overcome addiction to methamphetamine, OxyContin, and Fentanyl. The latter 2 were prescribed by doctors. I never went to treatment and quit all 3 cold turkey (I Do Not Recommend This Method For Anyone Else) at different times. It’s true that when you’re ready you will give it up. Sometimes a minute at a time. But you are worth it!!!
Plus,to stay clean,you need to leave your old area,cut old friends,family,anyone who still uses.
Same here! 👏🏻👏🏻
Just when my day was getting awful, Bailey comes to save it.
Hi Bailey. I just wanted to say thank you for your channel. Absolutely love it!
Hope you day gets better xo
Paulette Garcia, I hope it keeps getting better! I was having a horrible day, too and was so glad to see Bailey posted 💛
Are you feeling better? 💗
Agreed.
you should do a dark history episode about Operation Julie. Its a massive LSD operation that happeneed in Wales in the UK in the 70s. It was supplying LSD to a lot of places across europe.
what was the motive
BAILEY! You fricken ROCK! You really brighten my day. (Getting pretty close to creepy status so I will move on) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do an episode on the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy!1 I was born and bred in Hawaii and would like to world to know what the native Hawaiians went through. Thank you and keep up the great work!🤙🤙🤙🤙
Everything about this podcast is perfect. Bailey needs her own Netflix series or Amazon or HBO or something! Someone please pick her up. She's perfect!!
Yes!! Netflix!!!
Yes would be my all time favorite show! This NEEDS to happen!
You should do the history of redlining in real estate and how it still affects minorities and low-income areas today. I grew up in a white, Christian, Conservative home and my family never talked about anything like this, I feel like people who grew up with the same background would benefit from knowing how that all works, it changed my perspective on a lot of things for sure.
Phil Drescher (Bob the Tomato from Veggie Tales) had a great series on this topic..(for the sensitive people)...but Bailey would definitely give that information the umph in needs for the not so sensitive.
I just want to give you kudos for making such an up front honest comment like this & showing that it is important for all of us to learn all sides of things 💜 As a minority, I was not even aware of this real estate redlining that you mention so you’re educating me as well. Much love to you
Yes! That would be a great topic to learn about… I don’t know that much about it myself. Just the basics. I’d love an in-depth video about it. Especially from Bailey:)💖
But during redlining there was legislation passed in order for minorities to obtain loans and to buy houses. It was then banned in the late 60s as it was a very awful policy.
@@fightingforthefuture2941 high interest loans and displacement. Let’s not dress it up.
You knocked this one out of the park. Your natural charisma, your ability to communicate, all of it. I want to see more from you.
Bailey, "The American Dream is dead!"
Also Bailey, "It's time for an ad break!"
*brutal*
That switch from talking about the 1960s to the ad break with the 1960s-styled hair and makeup was genius!😍
I love her t-shirts! Social Distortion and Grateful Dead 💀
I was born in 69. Graduated 87. It's so sad how our government has chosen to treats the people paying them.. Imo it's even sadder how many people believe them.... Your great story teller Bailey!!💚💜
We vote these people into office. What this says to be is we need to be more informed about the people we vote into office. We do background checks on people we hire for our businesses. All the more careful of those we put in office.
@@mostlymia absolutely!!!
I'm from New Zealand, born in 1965 .It's the same here,it never sinecers to amaze me how the government does not tell the truth, and how quick people forget. Our media never holds them accountable.
I love that you are using your platform to give this issue more attention; i find that no one has really looked into understanding this when i talk to them irl so it's nice to have it on a shareable platform! love you bailey!!
Bailey is a great history teacher 😊
This whole story was on point!!! Stop throwing addicts in jail, get them help!!!!!
Agreed. That creates more issues. Deep sigh.
I was an addict for many years been clean 10 years all off my own back , there was no funding for a rehab - prison was my rehab - got clean for the third time in three times in jail and third time lucky!!
the lack of rehabilitation in america is sad. prisoners not serving a life sentence will eventually be reintroduced into society, they need to have the proper resources to do so successfully
Who is supposed to pay fot that?
@@jennamicieli2931 taxes, just like any government resource
I’m so sorry, this is irrelevant but I love your pfp
@@Limptastical thank you 🥺
@@jennamicieli2931 we’re *already* paying for it lol. the average charge for taxpayers per prisoner is $33,000 (higher depending on the state), so might as well make our taxes worthwhile. federal prisons alone cost $5.8 billion annually, and that’s not including state prisons. the money is there. if our tax dollars are funding them, they should use it more resourcefully.
Bailey, you truly deserve all of your success & more! Your respectful, yet hilarious delivery… I love ever bit of you!💛💛💛
Thank you for giving a voice to these atrocities. It's amazing to see the things we knew as kids finally being recognized. It has power coming from you and not us. Thank you.
It boggles my mind the amount of money the US spends to incarcerate addicts when rehabilitation and education is cheaper and would save so much money in the long run. Nevermind all the children that are abused and neglected due to addicted parents.
free healthcare and rehab?? we can’t do that, this is AMERICUH
It's definitely institutionalized racism and just slavery for the "now times".
And we can add in the for-profit prisons into the equation to muck up anything else potentially worthwhile.
Those companies have the ears of Congress-just like the NRA and they’re certainly not about to let a little thing like research-based efficacy get in the way of their profits.
And because those parents are incarcerated those kids go onto foster care where a large percentage are still abused and lost in the system.

Hello Bailey!
I’d love to hear a dark history in the overthrow of Hawaii. There’s so much dark dark history that comes with how the United States forced the queen to give up her sovereign nation. And how native Hawaiians the culture and race were being pushed to extinction. This has been a problem for so long and people mainly see the state as a vacay hot spot, they’re desecrating scared lands, and tourists mysteriously die or go missing when they cross sacred grounds. There’s sacred waterfalls that were used for sacrifices where mysterious deaths happen in them as well. I hope you see this Bailey!! 🖤🖤
Would love to see this. Great suggestion!
Oh wow I'd love to see that my husband and his family is native Hawaiian so this would be very interesting
I would love an episode about this, it sounds very interesting. Hope she will do it! 🖤
Yes Yes Yes...I know nothing about this!!!
Yes! I just learned from another account that Hawaii isn’t really state (or at least didn’t want to be) and should really be it’s own nation. Crazy bc that’s so not what we learned in school.
Yesssss!!!! The message in this one is so important. Bailey’s educating the masses and breaking stereotypes!
That was great I thoroughly enjoyed it and it was refreshing to hear somebody talk about this topic in very realistic terms and how it impacted people's lives.
Am I the only one that likes the video before it starts?
Bailey never disappoints!!
Always! And I always leave her a comment, and respond to a couple people also because I know it helps her channel and she deserves it!
🙋♀️
Always like it's Bailey
“Honestly , take me baack” Bailey out here saying what we’re all thinking 🤣
💯😂
🤣⚰👻 bish I'm a ghost
I'm glad you upload these on CZcams too. I listen to you all the time while I'm working! Your podcasts are a perfect background.
Thank you so much for this Bailey! It's so important to give this context.
Bailey over here doing more for America than anyone in politics
For REAL.
Talk to almost any old crew person who has been working in LA since the 70s, and they have stories of the coke table next to craftie that anyone could just go take a bump/line if they got too tired. It's wild.
What’s craftie?
Yeah- what’s “Craftie”?!
I could defiantly be wrong but I think it was where people got together to do crafts. Macramé for example and things like that.

You always have the best topics ever. I love watching you and learning important things about history.
You are amazing. Thanx for all the hard work you do
In the parking lot of Popeyes and just saw someone wearing your dark history shirt. I screamed at the top of my lungs. Scaring my little sister, cause I was so happy to find another bailey sarian lover.
Where can I find her merch?
Someone pointed out my Aqua Tofana tee in the street and we instantly bonded 😂
@@rebeccadominguez1221 I love that!
Aww cute lol

As a recovering addict I can't watch this one which makes me so sad, but I will be back on Monday ❤
I'm a recovering addict but had no issues being triggered. BUT I never liked uppers because they give me anxiety. So maybe this is not a relevant comment.
Idk sorry
Sending love to you ❤️❤️❤️

You're not missing out, shes kind of glorifying it and it's so disappointing
I’m glad you’re sharing this on behalf of those living it.
