This information makes me appreciate what I have.
🙏
Great one!
Well Done
You're amazing
So enlightening and informative.
I love the delivery of your video. The pace, tone, and timing is perfect for school age children (middle school). I was previously turned off to the crash course videos, because they were very fast paced and had to follow because of how fast the presenter was speaking. However, I can't say enough how much I enjoyed this video. Kudos!
This was informative. Thank you for producing this episode.. This is an important episode.
I'M 😅😅😅😅😅😅
They fought more than any of us ever had to
Thank u!! Professor I enjoy your voice and your teaching 🎉❤
And, the story of migrants continues..today, with Latinos moving to the 🇺🇸. Many of them are beating and discriminated in the process of attempting to leave home- they are desperately seeking better opportunities , some fleeing due to political oppression others for economic reasons. they find the will by choice and risk what it takes.. crossing multiple countries and borders – And, once close to the US 🇺🇸border- the story changes. they are faced with inhumane treatment by border patrol and an antiquated, convoluted system that makes the journey to freedom a lot harder- Unfortunately, History tends to repeat itself-
Great episode my brother!
This is a great video. It follows into how restrictive covenants came about in the North
This is more proof: black Americans are true Americans!
Is this why Gary Indiana Flint Michigan and Detroit exist?
This a fantastic series. Thank you from a middle school English teacher.

By moving North, what were Black Americans taking control of?
Inner cities were destroyed by the great migration!
Man this bring me back to 2015 when I use to watch crashcourse American history.
This was informative. Thank you for producing this episode.
Thank you for this crash course ep
I love your well thought and presented Crash Course
Our [dutch] media started to use "black"and "white"in their reporting some years ago but I was raised not to use these words because they where derrogatory.Also our media use "black people" for all nonwhite people instead of only subsaharan africans like in the US media.Perculiar.
I’m so pleased with this channel. You do an amazing job of research and explaining for kids and unfortunately some adults.
Oh dear God, The Red Summer of 1919 is next. Why does these seem to get worse?
You really pulled off an amazing feat with this video. I talk about the Great Migration in my mass media class specifically because it was so difficult to condense. Despite being one of the most important occurrences in the 20th century United States, almost nobody knows about it because it could not be distilled to a single article or clipping. There was no singular "event" that could be pointed to, so it slipped through the cracks of the old Bennett Model for news rooms. A combination of racism, attitudes, and the traits of the available mass media of the day have made this a badly overlooked and undertreated subject. We use it as a platform to discuss the values and limits of various media, and how they may impact our understanding of history and the present. I really appreciate your distilling of this information, and I hope that it gets the attention it deserves. I'll be using it in my class.
Very well done. Thank you.
I just watched the Migration episode of Crash Course Geography the other day, so it was neat hearing similar terms about being "pushed" out from somewhere and "pulled" towards another place for the Great Migration. Great timing!
A other good one!
Love ur work bro. Keep it up😁
The important history we never learned in school. Maybe someday?
