It's often important not to forget that history in school is divided between american, state and local history through various grades. It's eeked out in bits to suit the grade levels. Anything beyond that is floated to elective classes one can take in high school and beyond. While it's important to be inclusive about the good and bad in US and state history, there is a lot of it and to decry missed opportunities that we, we could have, ourselves missed out of in learning this stuff, is on us. This in-depth history is available in school, if only as an elective. If one to ignore the many options in university, well that's because we really didn't care, and that has to be learned this way, or by our elders.

My wife is full Lumber. When I showed this video, she knew all about this incident. And she was adopted at a very young age by an awesome non-native family. The Lumber people are very interesting and have an amazing history of self betterment and growth. They have had a history of independence when many native peoples did not. From the 1500"s onward they were never subjected the the level of outside control that most others were. They had their own bank and their own university. Most were literate long before most other native people were. And the Lumbees were often looked on and accepted as regular members of society long before others. Thanks for letting me rant on. Peace

My state has a law requiring you to go to the Sheriff and get a permit to buy a pistol. It is a Jim Crow law that is still on the books. My Father kept his first pistol permit as a memento. On it, part of the text says that the permit holder is "known to the Sheriff to be of good character." In reality, it was a way to prevent Black people from buying guns. Most of my state's Legislature was elected in part because of their supposed pro gun stance, but there has been no move whatsoever to get rid of this Jim Crow law.

As a constitutional lawyer he takes it as given that American citizens living in the United States and its territories have a right to own firearms and he further affirms that the 2nd amendment is a recognition of a right to resist tyranny by other "arms" as well, which has been eroded by the paramilitarization of police to become enforcers of the state who firearms are simply insufficient to resist when they enforce tyranny. He has further affirmed that gun control without concommittant disarming of police has further eroded that right to resist tyranny. Here's him discussing it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/anLTiJhuiK2shbs And here's him outlining his views in writing: truthout.org/articles/ferguson-and-the-second-amendment/ He has been advocating this nuanced view of the 2nd amendment for years and he could use help spreading it further.

@neurofiedyamato87634 жыл бұрын
@@Spetulhu Hitler got in to power and started rounding up Jews before any gun laws were in place. In fact Nazi gun laws weren't strict at all, quite the opposite. Firearms as a self-defense against criminal is quite valid but is wholly out-dated when it comes to tyrannical governments. We aren't living in a time where the army is using similar weapon as civilian firearms. And modern military weapon is very complex that your average citizen would not know how to use competently if at all. OP is correct. Gun laws, in the past, today and in the future have always been about putting it in the right hands and keeping it away from the wrong hands. Laws have to strike a balance, where that balance lies is a point of contention. Whenever a gun law proposal is made, pro-gun people think it's complete removal of guns when that is not the case if you look at the finer details. The opposite is true, when gun laws are relaxed, the anti-gun people think it is supporting anarchy. The reality is that laws are changed to match the times we live in to strike that balance. We can strike that perfect balance but people will never be satisfied because everyone's opinion is different, even among the same camps.

Well the reason from my understanding for why it is specifically called "Black History" or "Colored History" is to highlight the fact that traditional academia and popular culture purposefully neglected to mention or blatantly lied about said history to satisfy their own political ambitions. It's hard to justify the horrendous treatment of any group unless one convinces the populace they are other and therefore lesser.
