Whaaaat? Sal teaches History too.
Thus guy's a GENIUS!!
Sal Khan teaches U.S. History!!! This comes for my exam!!!
I watch these to relax - Thnx again Khan ! ^^
I love this series, and the timing is perfect since the AP US History exam is coming up really soon!
Thanks for the history of 'Jim Crow.' I knew what the term meant, but was unaware of when or how it came into play.
Excellent HD videos!!! Need them in Chemistry and Physics please!!! Your an extraordinary facilitator.
i would really appreciate a video on the great depression. it seems like khan has a great mind for economics and history and marrying the two could be very informative. also i don't know about those with more pedagogical experience but im entering high school and still haven't header a word about this important event. (PS. it would be super topical ;))
absolutely brilliant.
I could watch your videos all day
I have a credit by exam on july 5th and i have to get a 90 or above to get credit for the class
Thank You for this
Excellent HD videos! It it would be nice if there would be some in chem, physics. Do you do any Anatomy, Genetics, Microbiology, and other college sciences? By the way, your an extraordinary facilitator!!
I'd love if you made a video going in depth into the gilded age. I think the people really need to know this time more in depth.
Helpful vid thanks this is helping me for my finals
Love it, but maybe do more big events.
May I request a video on the Gilded Age? AP exams are in ten days for US History and the WHOLE class struggled on it during yesterday's review day than any other topic. Thank you, it would be fantastic!
hurry and post all of them so i can cram for the ap's
I'm enjoying your overviews from 30,000 ft. I have one correction: the Spanish-American War began when Spain declared war on the U.S., not the other way around. Keep 'um coming!
Nice, APUSH exam is in a week so this review is great.
You are awesome :D
congrats on 50 million views by the way
A bit too general, but a good overview nonetheless. I only hope that you can get enough quality vids up before the AP US test next friday.
As always, keep up the good work Sal!
nice
General Robert E. Lee surrendered to Gen. Grant on April 9, 1865. President Lincoln was assassinated April 14th, 1865 and died Apr. 15th, 1865 at approximately 7:22 in the morning. With Lee's surrender it essentially ended the American Civil War, except for some last hold outs.
Enjoy the video
@Territomauvais We have a saying "power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely". In that regard, the US did fairly well. I think much would have been worse if France/GB/Germany/Spain had had the same amount of power at this time.
@b3rd4 Do you really find it more disappointing than the Soviet Union, the British Empire, the Spanish Empire, the French under Napoleon, the Germans under Hitler, the Japanese Empire during WWII, the Ottoman Empire, or the Romans? These were all superpowers in their day. The US is definitely not perfect, but I'd say it looks pretty good in comparison.
Its nice learning US history
Oh really? I didn't know that they reviewed it yearly, good info man! :D Yea my book doesn't clearly state the main san because of the mines , but it said that that might have been the cause; so yea. My book is 2009.
When you do a video on WW1 make sure you talk about the entangling alliances
1890: "America was the richest country in the world!"
1913: *Wilson signs America over to private central banks.
Fast forward to 2016: We are enslaved with unplayable debts woo hoo!
Only if you took out a loan you couldn’t afford to pay back.
im so happy that you made more history vides Sal, But i though we were gonna go into world history, thats what you left off.
Section ten is limits on the states, not the federal government.
You mean till the entry of WW II at the end ;)
genius!!!
what is that political cartoon in the Low Right corner until from start to 3;30? Caesar with an American coin for a head?
I wish I was as smart as you!
when was that issued
Great video! but i still wonder what is the Japan role in WW1. And why they become aggressor in WW2? perhaps part 3 will explain. Yeah~ great video:)
While I do agree that it is difficult to eke out an argument against a text book... you would be surprised to know that they revise books yearly sometimes ;) And sir, my history textbook states: "The sinking of the Maine was one of the major events leading to the Spanish-American War. It is still uncertain who or what caused the explosion that sank the ship". My book dates 2004, yours?
thats what he said
exactly. the fed is supreme we will not have florida franks or california ruppies. just the almighty US Dollar. those framers had some serious foresight.
after 10 yrs
Coal towns!
There needs to be a store called Ottoman Empire that sells ottomans, lol.
Yes, Sure my HISTORY TEXTBOOK said so. You know you can't argue with a textbook...
12:03 i literaly clapped cause i was so proud
@theamazingempiricist as if this is actually gonna help us in a DBQ situation... *cries in corner*
For sure?
I've checked a lot of the facts personally and it's just a little bit harder to asses the actually cause of the Maine's sinking. However I will inform you that it was a EXTREMELY out dated ship. And would have been highly susceptible to an internal explosion. From that fact and other information it is commonly stated that it sunk because of an internal explosion of the forward magazines.
How and why they exploded is another question. ;)
didnt mention the lusitania
@KevinVancouver2 lol i think there is little interpretation for history, all these things really happened and have been studied , what in here is wrong?
You need to research the basis for the Civil War a little more. It was not about slavery at all. It was about trade policies imposed and the south rebelling.
WRONG.
Are you serious right now
slavery was a pretty big part of it bro, kind of common knowledge
You should do Russian history next :-)
@pay4cayray Thats exactly what i was thinking lol
@Smielle1 Elaborate? :p.
France gets involved militarily in other countries (former colonies) affairs without any international guidance; and you don't hear a word of it on American news.
Why would you presume I've been living in a cave, haha?
@Territomauvais what is it with Americans bashing the French all the time? There is no colonialism going on. What remains is something called "international relations". And who said your constitution is superior? Basically Germany's constitution is a much more modern version, and allows for nice little things like "real" majority voting and keeping lobbyism and corruption tightly in check. What I meant was the colonial powers of say 100-200 years ago, with totally different polities than today's
@hedonism13
*half sarcasm
He hates California so he didn't put the gold rush in the last video
@SalsaTiger83 I agree completely. France continues to a menacing extent its colonial adventures in Central & Northern Africa. Neither Germany, Spain, nor the UK have a constitution suitable to wield the power America has had dumped into its hands. Even with our wonderfully written constitution though; look at how epic America's contemporary failures are...
We are far from having a Superpower who is universally good for its people; and neighbors.
No it was actually blown up because of a underwater mine
@Territomauvais
No, but isn't it sad that superpowers have to be tyrannical at all?
Comparing to define who was the least tyrannical is so SAD, really. It just assumes the world has no chance of being led by a big nation that will help smaller ones, so all we can really strive to be is the LEAST BAD one.
That's just sad, IMO.
16th Amendment?
@b3rd4 Lol. I like how you summarize the most unanimous response or perspective people have against america either blindly or just as a group. no offense but its like the most common idea people have about America yet they are like the engine needed to run the world. the only time one would ever hate a superpower; in the context of the world never else. LOL! I just find it funny.
PS. I am a Canadian. So i would apologetically could careless. eh!
@khanacademy
I think that you just forget Portuguese Empire.
Yay, more history!
I don't think the USA is all that disappointing. We have a lot to be proud of- and admittedly a lot to be ashamed of. But who doesn't? The secular constitution of which we were founded by as well as the principles we hold to be universal has at least, undoubtedly, made the US the least tyrannical of all superpowers.
Am I wrong?
@b3rd4 it's probably the only superpower you know ;-)
@SalsaTiger83 I'm not an American bashing the French- I live in reality. And the reality is France and its former colonies have strong economic ties to each other- and France sees to it that they use military force to protect their interests in said countries without any international approval.
Chad, Côte d'Ivoire, how about Rwanda?!- In which the French military intervened only on the side of those committing the genocide. This is colonialism by definition. Sorry.
...
@Territomauvais your view on history looks a little biased. Try to perceive more details and judge less... It is easy to arrive at conclusions, but very hard and misleading to argue about morals.
mostly good but i feel like leaving out the progressive era stuff is a mistake
The 13th amendment abolished slavery and the 16th amendment reinstated it. haha
Just skipped over the 16th amendment...
emancipation proclamation - sorry i don't listen to Hip Hop.
@KevinVancouver2 *America's history, *its, *they're. Thank you for playing CZcams idiocy bingo. You managed to hit many squares- poor grammar, insults to America, hasty generalizations, disdainful yet vague dismissal of someone's work, and, of course, your free space, but did not manage to get a Bingo. Shucks. Have a lovely day.,
The Civil war was won two months after Lincoln's assassination?? Helloooo? Stick to math...
This is just....Bad. I don't understand how if a teacher simply lectures with notes and a few visuals, she would be rated ineffective or told she's not using "best practices". But everybody raves about Khan Academy. Cuz it's TECHNOLOGY. Or something. Besides that, this is just pretty bad history. You completely leave out the political battles of Reconstruction. I know it's meant to be an overview, but...still. Just bad history. I don't get it.
its a he
+fifinostalgia what the fuck?? Are you kidding??????
+Bartleby Scrivener well I think with the fact that he sounds like a dude
Sal Khan
nicholas andrzejkiewicz omg....I wasn't saying the person DOING this was a woman!!! I KNOW who Khan is! I was referring to "a teacher"....out there in the real world, teaching....SHE (or he) would be judged ineffective if they simply lectured....like this.....omg....you people!!!! smdh
the the the the repetition of the narrator. It starts, it starts, it starts to distract if you are, if you are, if you are able to pick up quickly on what is being said, than this delivery can become distracting. It becomes distracting. I'm not making fun of someone with a stutter, or a nervous repetition in their speach, but it makes this video unwatchable, it's unwatchable, it's unwatchable to me.
I think he might have a stuttering problem
