Dear Crash Course team, Im currently in New York and what seems to be a blizzard that will keep me in front of my tv for the remainder of the weekend. I thought that I would take this opportunity to be a productive law student and begin my readings that are due Monday, only to find myself nodding off and dreaming about how much fun it would be playing outside. After waking up, I decided to try and trick myself into believing that this subject is not as boring as my body wants me to believe. I googled constitutional interpretation videos and the first episode of your videos came up. Four gin and tonics and sixteen videos later I am not only experiencing a pleasant inebriation, I am also extremely excited to continue bing watch the remaining episodes, either until I finish the series or until these libations have me passed out on the couch. Thank you

In the recent movie Lincoln there's an excellent scene on the house floor where they're discussing freeing all slaves through the 13th amendment. They're discussing the slippery slope where if you free the slaves what next? They go on to make comparisons by saying next the freed slaves will want to vote which caused a stir in the house. After that they take this point to an "extreme" by suggesting that now women will want to vote after this is done. At that point the house floor totally erupts into wild outrage. I thought that was an interesting scene that really demonstrates during that time period much of what peoples feelings were about women, like you've discussed in this video.

The lack of ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment is one of the most staggering issues I had ever read about, mostly because some of the loudest voices against it were women. People like Phyllis Schlafly who openly heckles feminists at speeches. Her logic is what really baffles me, that the ERA would potentially remove things like widow reperations for husbands KIA during war, or maternal leave. And here lies the giant flaw in that logic: Don't make those gender bound. The fact male soldiers that die grant reperations to their widows, but female soldiers that die are not recongized the same way to their husbands. That is a program that needs ammending, it wasn't likely to ever go away. Funny thing about equality: IT'S MEANS EQUAL, FOR BOTH PARTIES.

I don't understand the beef with the discussion of feminism. This isn't the modern man-hating third-wave feminism, this is the original emancipation of women. The liberation of women to the status of human. It seems a lot of people simply can't understand just how repressed women were in those days. Not being able to own property, not being allowed to earn money, complete obedience to husband, no vote of course. This is the shit we rail against Saudi Arabia for. The only reason the abolition of slavery overshadows this in history is because it started a war. But because the two movements are intertwined, and are the formation of our modern ideals, of equal rights for all, this discussion of feminism is extremely fucking relevant to history.

Luke had a more physical connection to the force, where as Leias was more metaphysical. While Leia had metal force abilities, (like the ability to mentally connect with her mother) Luke had the ability to connect with the physical aspects of the force, which was why he had the capability to become a Jedi. Leia lacked that ability. Rey on the other hand #UltimateForceUser.

Yes but I don't think that this is what John meant. First, I can't think of any female Jedi introduced in the original trilogy (please correct me if I'm wrong), of course the prequels came much later so at more inclusives time. Also, his point was that, story-wise, at one point does it make more sense to train Luke and not Leia ? Or the both of them, as young people ? Leia even was privileged by education and everything, so how did she not receive this training. Finally, it's not because he threw some shade at Star Wars that it makes it any less great. I freakin love Star Wars. But we have to recognize that the media we consumed is shaped my society, and vice-versa. It's always important to admit that this thing we liked, has many problematic aspects. It doesn't mean Star Wars is sexist, just that it is a reflection of our time, and we should ask ourselves why it is the way it is. John said it : because patriarchy.
@TransMera4 жыл бұрын
Blue You do make a very good point. Although it is canon that Yoda wanted to train Leia instead of Luke, that was released in a book WAY after the original trilogy. I don’t know if Leia didn’t get trained because she didn’t have someone to train her (There were no Jedi on Alderaan because a. There were very few Jedi left, about 8 left [currently in canon], and b. Alderaan is a very busy and important place and no Jedi that is in hiding would go there. it also wasn’t revealed that she was force sensitive. So it is possible that it was a story decision to not train her, but I do think you make a very good point. I don’t know what George Lucas and the other people making the movie were thinking, but I think it will remain a mystery whether Leia not getting trained was a story decision, tainted by society, or a little bit of both. Have a good day Blue 😉

Hahaha I loved how you mentioned Star Wars. Recently, Lucasfilm was bought by Disney (and was passed on to a female CEO, though I'm not sure if that's too significant considering the growing conscientiousness of people regarding sexism these days), and the new Star Wars films feature the unsexualized Ray as our main protagonist that she may embark on the hero's journey males have traditionally undertaken. Not just that. Man, I'm giggling just thinking of it... The first people (and main characters, as it turns out) featured in the Force Awakens was a black guy and Latino guy. Disney has been TRYING to produce media that features a diversity of characters. I can see that, and it's especially giggle-worthy to see it in much of kid's media these days. But to take the popular and seminal franchise of Star Wars and do THAT... it's unbelievable. The next thing is to make a Legend of Zelda series that has Zelda as our main protag instead of Link. Immensely popular, big franchises have such great power. It's when I really feel that artist's can actually have a massive voice. On a different note, kid's toys need to have an overhaul of male and female marketing. Like, my school still separates the classes for boy's toys and girl's toys. Ridiculous. I'm just puking opinions now, just cuz this video got me so excited... but I can feel great and terrible change approaching. Something to do with millennials and globalization and the U.S. being such a melting pot and its infrastructure on immigration. And having the total opposites Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders rise to incredible popularity in this year's election. It has something to do with this eras tech and ideas, and the fact these ideas can be broadcast so easily through such tech. I love these Crash Course vids cuz I can sort of see what's happening now, all around me... You, the Crash Course team, were some of the first of those changes. You were at the beginning of it.

It's not unfair that most industries on this planet are male dominated. Entertainment is no exception. Even I think it's odd when some feminists go ballistic over the most trite things. Bottom line is, the world would be far more robust, interesting, peaceful, and thought-provoking through simple inclusion. I understand that Zelda is an established franchise and there are certain things you can't just change. But that's the point, isn't it? And I'm not just talking about Zelda. That's a teeny tiny sample of the pandemonium we'll experience when guys and gals (and everyone else) get the same opportunities and regard. Especially in entertainment, which is distilled culture.

patrick kinnear I know that you weren't even a decision to be made when Star Wars came out, but knowing who Yoda is and not knowing who Mace Windu is like knowing who Harry Potter is and not knowing who Dumbledore is. Or knowing who Paul Revere is but not knowing who George Washington is. And while its funny to be a troll when you're good at it, I seriously hope that wasn't an attempt at that. Cuz it would be even worse than not knowing who Mace Windu is.

They trained Luke and not Leia for two reasons. The first one being that Luke had a stronger connection to the force. The other reason was that Leia was a key member in the rebel alliance and training her would have jeopardized it. Futhermore people knew Anakin Skywalker. Lukes name gives away that they were related. However only two people knew that Leia was the daughter of Anakin and they didn't want to reveal that Anakin had two children Also in the alternative ending in the force unleashed II it is shown that if Luke was to be turned to the dark side or get killed Leia would be trained in the ways of the force

Americans do not get as wasted anymore because rich people found out it is possible to turn corn and other sources of booze like apples and grain into sugar. It is like they found a way to legally sell alcohol to children too. PS Originally Lucas was going to make Leia the main character. Why he changed his mind I do not know.

@aquariansage145110 жыл бұрын
This is going to be a shot in the dark, but I suspect that Lucas was forced to make Luke the main protagonist over Leia. Movies featuring female protagonists typically make less money and are believed to only be for the female demographic, whereas movies about male protagonists are believed to cater to more broad audiences. This is changing, but disparities still remain. Why else would Wonder Woman have a grand total of zero video games and shows about her, and only one (direct to home) movie, whereas Batman has a kajillion?

Here's the thing- we're talking about women here. Nobody's deliberately excluding men. There are plenty of topics where really only men are discussed. Is it so much to ask for to have one video just about women, where we discuss their achievements and oppression- which, by the way, because of people like the ones in the comments? In case this is too confusing for you, let me explain it simply. Many videos about men. No problem. Lots of discussion about men. Fine. Many things about both men and women in general, fine. One video about women- not excluding men, because many videos about man already. Got it?

Catharine Beecher was actually right - either it's special place in the society at the expense of rights, or losing the former while gaining the latter. P.S. They trained Luke not Leia because he was a farmboy and she was a senator.

EpiDemic117 I too wish that we could just cut the BS and get rid of the gender/racial/religious/whatever standards and treat everyone fairly (no prejudice and yet no special treatment).

EpiDemic117 True humankind (not "mankind") may have made several mistakes on their path to growing more intelligent and unified, but what we tend to forget is that we also are the ones who made the steps that corrected those mistakes. We have come leaps and bounds since the early 19th century as a team. People may have fought to prevent women from voting but people also fought to give them that right. I think it was less about people simply not thinking that women should vote it was probably tons of different feelings we had to change. The fear of change, the fear that women would grow mad with power, the fear that it was against the natural order, tons of stuff.

The only thing I will say about any of this for fear of what is happening in the comments (I'm afraid to even look) is that the most likely reason that women who wore shorter skirts and pants were ridiculed was because in the 1800s...those were children's clothes. That was what toddlers and young children wore, so OF COURSE they were laughed at. I mean, it's back to that whole part about needing a change in attitude, but I do feel it necessary to point out that most of these people ridiculing them weren't like, "HA stupid women trying to be like men, how dare they!" and were more like, "HA, my 4 year old daughter has that same outfit- And she wants to be taken seriously in that?" In fact a lot of the suffragettes that are still well-known/mainstream were extremely against a radical change in dress because it made people take them less seriously. Because to the people of the 1800s, they looked ridiculous.

A big reason I think many of the Stars Wars characters are male is because science fiction is typically (not in all cases) enjoyed more by male audiences. Luke is obviously a more relatable character for a guy then Leia would have been.

To be completely fair, Luke was essentially ignored while Leia ran the rebellion and didn't get any training at all until Leia asked Obi-Wan for help. He's basically the plucky sidekick playing a bit part in a woman's war. Not sure that exact situation is a good example of patriarchy.
