Quick update on the #CrashCourse in #BlackAmericanHistory that I recently restarted. (I'm guilty of starting, getting distracted, forgetting about it and then restarting. ) This time around I have it scheduled and watch at least 3 at a time.
Anyway, I'm happily moving through the course and learning so much. I realize now that I had a good overview but was lacking specifics. Clint Smith is doing a great job of connecting it all.

Clifton DeBerry ran for President in 1964. At that moment, Barack Obama was a toddling 3-year-old living with family in the Manoa neighborhood of Honolulu, Hawaii.

The resistance to teaching #BlackAmericanHistory is not new. It wasn't part of the curriculum when I was a child in segregated southern schools in the 60s and 70s. I have learned a lot outside of the classroom over time but I'm looking forward to the #CrashCourse taught by Clint Smith. (51 videos, ~ 10-15 min ea.) I started yesterday. You can start today!

I think it's important for Black US folks to realize how important they are to our histories elsewhere.
To start we have Mary Ann Camberton Shadd Cary (1823-1893).
First Woman to publish a newspaper in Canada.
First Black woman publisher in North America.
First racially integrated school for Black Refugees in Windsor, Canada.

I discovered a very informative series on Spotify (originally on YouTube?) called Crash Course Black American History. The series is broken into short episodes of about 12 minutes, starting with the Transatlantic Slave Trade. The details are disturbing to hear but I felt I had to listen in order to learn a different perspective of what I was taught (or not taught) in school. Highly recommended. https://open.spotify.com/show/6SdjUBcnURV10A4pMR2Ixw
