[@kaitouknight3428]

Don't forget the Giant Death Star looking thing in the mountains

[@HelenFire420]

So for everyone wondering, Knuckles clearly has the master emerald underground in hidden place zone, so that’s why the island isn’t floating. Tails probably provided a robotic guard dog to watch it while knuckles goes grocery shopping in Tiburon or, when he is hanging out with Sonic and Tails in the mystic ruins.

[@LatteWiiU]

Where's knuckles

[@segaking5846]

[@jimmster5224]

Comments: who else did this for homework Me: where tf is the red echidna

[@AzafuseKingTora]

[@Blackhedgehogguy]

[@Blackhedgehogguy]

i got a few things to say: 1: why aint it floating 2: i thought carnival night was the only city 3: where is knuckles

[@NolaChinese]

This is an excellent and well done video. The camera work, editing, and narration are all impressive. Though, I will add that we know a great deal about the detainees at Angel Island, and many of them were highly educated college graduates or wealthy merchants. The poems they wrote range in quality from simple and crudely carved words, perhaps the words of a common farmer, to sophisticated poems in outstanding calligraphy with references to Chinese literature, history, and mythology, something only someone with formal training as a scholar can write. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the video. Thanks! Winston Ho 何嶸. Independent Historian. Researching Chinese American History in New Orleans 紐奧良華僑歷史研究.

[@terbearyaboy5639]

[@themanny782]

Watch in 1.5x made it so much easier for me to understand

[@joqueselo]

Master Emerald is gone, thats why the island is not in the sky

[@AngieYoo]

[@antionettejohnson4402]

I had not heard of " Angel Island until recently /tracing my Ancestors Heritage and my heart sunk!!!! hearing the statement " Hall of records burnt down " which I am finding happened often along with the changing of records/paper geocide of the American Indians to now the " Native Americans" We are here now, today to correct the past/restore our Ancestors Stolen Legacy!

[@robitaillefan20]

I was told records burned. My dad was stationed at Angel islan

[@totallynotrunerot5461]

The master emerald must be stolen its not there and its in the water

[@dokkanblox9695]

But angel island wasn't on fire?

[@chilliorganism]

Where's the big shiny emerald? Wait, it was probably stolen again...

[@HelenFire420]

No it’s in hidden palace zone underground.

[@AzafuseKingTora]

[@Joelych]

Well, I guess history did find a way to repeat itself. Chinese were being discriminated for trying to immigrate to America legally, but now we trying to discriminate the illegal immigrants. I hope the word "illegal" means something. I support all legal immigrants.

[@FRANCISPOLLARD-r3p]

You should give 80% of your net income to help them. Talk is cheap. I have help illegals who work.

[@Joelych]

@@FRANCISPOLLARD-r3p so what about those who are legal and willing to work? What does the word illegal mean to you? Yes, talk is cheap and nothing will work if people don’t talk.

[@FRANCISPOLLARD-r3p]

@@Joelych illegal aliens who do not work and freeload can go back to their hoods. Take their pregnet butts back to. I support legal people too. But when lazy Americans don't want to work, then give it to those that do.

they added the documentary option instead of the final essay this semester.

[@pamalalearn6388]

Facts are facts and this was good until you put bias in the end. I can not give this to my students to watch. Too bad, it had merit. It would be a great example of how bias is used in educational videos.
