Franklin's comment at 9:32 is still important today: (paraphrasing) The fact I have changed my mind later about things I was once sure of, leads me to doubt my judgments and pay more attention to the judgments of others.
Thank you for the series.
NOTE: Article I, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution states: “Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.”
The U.S. Constitution did not relegate an individual to “three-fifths of a person” status, but rather this number is a fraction of the entire population segment that can be counted towards representation in the formation of congressional districts (and taxation).
Such characterization is technically inaccurate and potentially misleading.
I think it is quite clear, that it is to be counting people NOT free and NOT bound for a specific term of service - which means those enslaved - to be counted as 3/5
Nice book shelves.
It is the moral responsibility of this channel and every patriotic person including foriegners interested in humanity to provide for the largest viewing audience possible for this material. This should be mandatory once a year in grades 3 to 12 and all years of college. This needs to replace critical race theory.
Though I agree that this series should be mandatory for children, I'd suggest Sixth Grade and above. Have you been around an eight-year-old lately? Second, CRT, for your information, is and has always been a college level course for law students. Republicans have made it one of their talking points because they want to stir trouble among the races.
