Great video, thank you for sharing.

Thanks for this

Guess I’m a nerd because I absolutely love these

NERD!! (I then went to go watch the video myself)

That end is a real shot fired at our current system and I agree with you 100%

Jim Crow was white supremest keeping the Black people from their right to vote and being equal !

Thank you for this ‼️👏🏼

Imma gonna watch this film (Jim Crow)...but I have to say (photo prof here), you have some interesting cameras there on the shelf, very real.

Happy to nerd out with you. Really well done. Thanks!

That was very interesting. Thank you!

That there's any need to explain Jim Crow to our country's citizens tells you all you need to know about the dismal state of education here.

I apprciate this video and the others you've done. Thank you! 🙏🏽 ❤️ It looks like more and more, Americans will need to seek out this kind of content to fill in for what's being increasingly hollowed out from our education system.

Off the dome!!

Thank you.

Thank you

In a nutshell Jim Crow was the result of President Abraham Lincoln not listening to Representative Thaddeus Stevens. President Lincoln tried to treat the confederate scumbags like people after they surrendered. They shot him in the back of the head for it. Stevens had the right idea.

you're going on my US survey syllabus, for sure.

Wow! Thank you for that video Mr. bouie. I felt like I was in a college lecture and I loved it.

So much Myth of the Lost Cause embedded in the culture. Have to get it out with wrecking balls and dynamite but...Their Choice. Since 1851 --the Protestant church split into Northern and Southern -- they have been daring us to "Make Me." So, we must.

Thanks, Jamelle for that brief but somewhat thorough explanation. I certainly understood the kinds of things that happened during the Jim Crow era but I didn't understand how we got there or why we seem to be slipping backward towards more of the violence intolerance of that period.

Thank you. I am Canadian and was aware of the rampant racism to the south, but until now, I never really understood what Jim Crow was. It seems to me, that this new bunch of Nazis will be worse than the last. Elbows up, my friend

Looking forward to this. I have one feedback on thumbnails, though. The yellow glowing outline makes it look like you're a Force Ghost.

The exclusionary mechanism of partisan gerrymandering Jim Crow 2.0 Weaponizing voter data to enact a suffrage math math cheat

The replies in the comment section could really benefit to watch the video

This is great! My kids love books but everything is done via video now. This will be helpful for a lot of teachers, students, and people who didn’t learn enough history in school, which is most of us.

Looking forward to this for sure. 👍

Necessary framing. Not enough of this here.

as a European who's somehat familiar with America - one of the biggest holes in my understanding of how America works is basically everything post Civil war - pre WW2. Especially in the south.

Thank you, Jamelle

Thank you for an enlightening discussion. While I was an American history major in college, Jim Crow was mentioned, but never discussed in depth and I regret that. So much of what followed, as you point out, descended directly from Reconstruction and the movement.

Excellent. Thanks.

Thanks for helping fill in some of my educational gaps, and thanks especially for the references and sources at the beginning. More for my reading list. I appreciate your posts and the information you share.

Loved it! I appreciated the framing of defining Jim Crow in terms of control of labor. Most school/book learnin' just leans into the plain racism aspect of it, I think. (The volume of the parenthetical was a decent bit lower and I got surprised by how loud it was when you returned.)

This is really great. So much added to what little I understood before. And so many questions too. I wonder if there was ever a serious movement to adjust House seats under 14A Sec 2?

I lived in southwest Ohio from the mid-60s-mid-70s. Though not technically a confederate state, racism and segregation were alive and well. There were parts of town where houses would increase or go off the market because of our identity, not at all because we couldn't afford it.

Indeed. Federal government didn't pass those anti-redlining regs in 1998 because nobody had done it for thirty years.

Well stated!

Just subscribed!

oh my goodness thank you

I'm so white that I'm pale blue from Northern Europe and even I know what Jim Crow laws were. Seriously, is this some hidden secret for Americans?

It is in southern states that teach a warped rewrite of history, like how the Civil War was "the war of NORTHERN aggression" (no mention of slavery, just that their states rights were violated).

Ha, when I started reading about the American Civil War I found it immensely ridiculous that the South harped about states' rights, just after they imposed the Fugitive Slave Acts on Northern states. I guess some states are more equal than others.

Hot damn I've been hoping for this !

We need videos like this now more than ever!

watching this now. I read The New Jim Crow and White Rage so I think I have a clue, but to this day I probably fail to appreciate the level of oppression, violence, and inequity that Black people endured. Thank you

This is invaluable for the kids growing up now: can’t take anything for granted. Returning to the basics of history is more vital than ever

Essential education. Thank you, Mr B. #JimCrow
