Please don't erase Claudette Colvin. Rosa Parks is an extremely important figure in the civil rights movement, but let's not forget the fifteen year old girl who beat her to the punch, but wasn't used as the face of the Montgomery boycott because she was an unwed mother.

You should've also mentioned Emmett Till, a 14 year old black boy from Chicago, who was brutally murdered in Money, Mississippi for merely speaking to a white woman named Carolyn Bryant in August 1955. Rosa Parks in an interview once said that she thought of Emmett Till when she decided to stand up for herself in December.1955. He was truly an inspiration and one of the sparks that started the flame that is the Civil Rights movement. Just saying.

Thank you, thank you, for your accurate, nuanced view of the 1950's. We moved back to Montgomery in 1954. My mother drove our maid back and forth instead of firing her during the boycott; many of our neighbors simply fired their maids. We left Montgomery in 1961 when it was under martial law for its reprehensible behavior when the Freedom Riders came through. Although most people considered us "white" when they first met us and we did drink out of "white" fountains, we regularly received mailings from the White Citizens Council in the next county that reminded us we weren't quite as white as our neighbors. Kids from the north side of Montgomery came to my "white" junior high - past another "white" junior high. Busing was not the central issue then or later.

Birdeaor We arrived at Minot AFB in the summer of 1962. My father was the director of Personnel for the installation. One of the things that directorate does is allow people in housing surplus areas to offer their homes for rent to base personnel who can't find adequate housing on base. Larger families that can't fit into base housing are just one of many reasons. My father found that some people were offering housing but had restrictions that were legal at the time but greatly annoyed him. He ordered the people handling the offers to tell the offerors that they either wanted to rent or they didn't. Period. No restrictions based on color or creed would be accepted. They wanted the money more than they wanted to remain bigots. It's hard to live up to a legacy like that. Individuals can make a difference. Thanks for asking.

***** 1. Black on white crime is 10 times the reverse rate. If you call reporting FBI statistics and abundant evidence hateful, then they've already got your heart. 2. The knockout game video is real. Whether you find me depresing is irrelevant. My own experience was not meant to play on anecdotal evidence or elicit sympathy. It was to demonstrate that I have both personal and research evidence. More than just the one racist assault by blacks too, by the way. 3. It is irresponsible to report 400 years of blacks being mistreated without telling about how at the same time in Africa they were themselves doing some mighty big mistreating. Same goes with Arabs, Portuguese, Brits, Chinese. Get the trend here? Your 400 years are the same numbers mentioned by the professional liars, ALWAYS out of context to the rest of human hatred at the same time. 4. The liberal liars who control ABC, NBC, NPR and CBS (NY Times too) ARE atheist. Don't take that to mean I believe there is a necessary correlative between lying and believing in the religion of atheism. I don't. 5. I mention liberal because most conservatives long ago began obtaining information from reliable sources. Thus, there is a reasonable likelihood that much of the Crash Course audience IS liberal, albeit with some fairly ignorant conservatives mixed in, plus those pesky moderates who lack enough knowledge to even make a decision. 6. No way do I point out black slave OWNERS to dismiss what some whites in this country did to 5% of all the African slaves. Rather, my goal is to fill in the gaps because the professional liars in the atheist liberal media intentionallly deceive their audiences by leaving that out. Otherwise, we are in agreement. Hatred and control over the lives of others is deplorable. Yet the entire world has been taught to bash whitey during the last 50 years of propaganda. SOMEBODY has to stand up and begin setting matters straight. I am pleased to be one of a small crowd who have begun taking on that chore, plus other chores. 7. You are mistaken in thinking I have no ability to differentiate blacks who retain control over their own minds from the the ones who allowed themselves to be overpowered with hatred based on years of brainwashing. And they ARE scary. Even rational blacks will confess being scared. If you are not, then I highly recommend staying off urban streets at night because lots of folks have been recommending serious vigilence in those areas. I also spent 6 months living in downtown Cincinnati and half a year managing a construction project near south-central Los Angeles (of Rodney King riots fame). It IS a freaky ambiance to be around. Don't kid yourself. Even the racist Chris Rock will tell you about the types I am talking about. So why do I generalize them? Actuallly, they generalize themselves by voting for the Satanic Democrats at the rate of 95 percent. Stunning. How could any group in THAT huge of a percentage be either dumb enough or Marxist enough to license those thugs to steal from the American people? As for the 5 percent, great. I would have CHEERED all the way driving down to vote for Herman Cain because he isn't a liberal airhead dumb enough to vote for lying thieves to destroy America. 8. We can all come to closer agreement about who the liars are thanks to diligent and vigilent and amazing operations like Media Research Center (MRC.org), daily performing surgery on what the liars at ABC, NBC, NPR and CBS report. 9. I can be changed. The problem is that the things stated by me are not just robotic rants learned from talk radio programs. I have poured over the stuff for decades, even written a book (unpublished), began making videos last year, read numerous books and TESTED the allegations of both sides. I don't WANT to be a critic just to be some ranting self-righteous arrogant creep. The problem is that we really ARE being confronted by the types described by me. Here, I will give you a much more calm delivery of the same ideas from a different voice (okay, more than one): A. The "Know Your Enemy" series here on youtube. B. Kent Hovind's "100 Scientific Reasons Why Evolution is Stupid." C. Living Waters from Ray Comfort D. Chuck Missler E. Ravi Zacharias F. Stuff from PJ Media You sound like a thoughtful guy. Let me request that you try trusting me just enough to sample some of the teachers listed above. Cheers.

Note to John: the american civil rights campaign actually started in the late 1800s. Some of the first civil right leaders were, booker t. Washington, w.e.b. dubois(yeah they had opposing views but they were leaders iin their own right not to far from mlk and a younger and narrow miinded malcolm, p.s. he grrew up and his last disposition was closer to mlk's) and marcus garvey and whole slough of others. The time your discusing; the 1950-69 era, was actually the end of the civil rights movement if you add the 70s. To say it started in the 1950s is to cut off at least 70 years of work put in by people frrom all kiinds of cultures and backgrounds. I know your doing a time piece and this time is the turning point for the movement with the introduction of that double edged sword known as the t.v. in which americans were granted an eye into the horrors their country was commiting but please recognize that this is not the beginning but the near the end.

Birdeaor John and I said they were winning. we never said they won. Likely as not, we never will, as the human tendency toward xenophobia and ethnocentrism will make it impossible to stamp out racism completely. But one see the civil rights movement of the 50s and 60s in the light one might view victory over the Nazis. Did we end anti-semitism? No. Did we even end Nazism? No. But we one a battle against anti-semitism and eugenics so decisive, that while such ideologies might linger at the edges of society and consciousness forever, we can hope that they will never have the influence they once enjoyed. Our campaigns against employment bias, subtle voter discrimination, and everyday racially motivated social aggression may never end, but thanks to the civil rights movements of the 50s and 60s, we may never have to worry about Jim Crow and atrocities of similar magnitude ever again. If not a final victory, it is definitely an important one.

I'm a black man from Mississippi and when I was in high school ( in the 90's) there were less than 10 white students in a public high school, that I attended, of about 1,300 students.

Rosa Park is actually only one the many people to refused to move to the back of the bus. The first was Claudette Colvin.

This episode really provided some good insight in the mentality of people in the 50's. I can really see how this decade brought in the rise of Science Fiction and dystopia stories from people like George Orwell and Ray Bradbury.

Excellent video!! It's interesting to think that during most of America's history, average Americans were not in a "middle-class" strata in any way... Also very pertinent to the present situation in America - it sounds like the imbalance of wealth in America today has some historical precedents, & if Americans want to get back to the relative prosperity of the 1950's, that top 1% needs to be legislated into a lower income level.

I love the way John always sounds so surprised when it's time for the mystery document!

I believe that one of the biggest lies told now is that the Civil Rights movement achieved what it set out to do. I don't think that battle is won yet and I think that there is still a huge need for social activism now days. It isn't enough for the system to acknowledge its broken and fixed. There is still a wide gap between minorities, that need to be addressed from both sides; a change in culture and an institutional one.

I agree. Martin Luther King's last march was not about integration or even about legal rights. It was about poverty and inequality amongst all Americans. If he had survived I believe the Civil Rights conversation would have shifted from simply Black-White, to the more broad divide of Rich-Poor, but instead he was assassinated and nobody has adequately picked up the torch. I think his death was a big reason the US failed to hold onto the equal wealth distribution and giant middle class it had during the 50s and 60s

If you ever come up with a good argument, you are just part of the conspiracy. These types of people cannot be convinced.

John says: '...at least the federal government showed that it wouldn't allow states to ignore court orders about the Constitution." (10:25) It sounds very obvious today, but it wasn't always. President Jackson refused to enforce Worcester v. Georgia (1832) which lead the forcible removal of the Cherokee from Georgia to Oklahoma.

I think that was less about Federal vs State power and more about no one liking the Cherokee and really wishing they'd just go away. I mean Jackson did confront South Carolina over the nullification crisis,

Exactly, Jackson did whatever he wanted. If it supported the Constitution, fine. If not, that was okay, too. What a tyrant!

The first person to be kicked off of a bus for not moving to the back of the bus. The first person was a 15-year-old pregnant girl named Claudette Colvin, she was arrested 9 months before Rosa Parks. Parks became the poster person because Colvin was pregnant.

+Emma Selby I read MLK's bio "Bearing the Cross" (great read btw) and it mentioned that Rosa Parks was chosen for this. She and her husband where active in the NAACP and her arrest was planned (they were just looking for the right opportunity) so the law could be challenged. It was strategic for the movement's progression. The NAACP bailed her out of jail, the boycott happened days later and the rest is history. I respected her a lot more, because as an activist she was well aware of what could've happened to her. When the opportunity came it must have taken a lot of courage for her to go through with it. I haven't read the book in forever so I'm sure I'm leaving some things out. There might be more info online though.

why is there no crash course geography

Thank You for helping me study for my History 1302 Unit 4 Test John and the entire team who makes these videos possible

Holy shit, I'm up to date with Crash Course... now what am I going to watch during lunch breaks?

Holy crap I got to the end of the playlist .... WHAT DO I DO?! History didn't prepare me for this!

and this is still happening in 2020

Please please can you do a video on Thatcherism in the UK? I LOVE your videos, they help with my revision so much! We had a modual on Thatcher that was taught terribly last year and my whole class is struggling to teach ourselves, I've got them all watching your videos for the American topics and a couple on British History would be amazing!

Thanks! You helped me a lot by making this video. I am going to write an english test tomorrow in my english class about Martin Luther King and Malcom X. Greetings from Germany! :)

Are you going to do another crash course on history after this one finishes? Maybe one specifically on European History? I love history and I've loved the Crash Course World and US Histories. I would love to see another history series.

I have literally watched the civil rights videos 1000 times... No joke. Amazing. It totally helped me with my essays in GCSE

Could you do a video comparing women’s civil rights movement and African American civil rights movement. Who achieved more during the 1960s.

That's easy, African Americans. Blacks had virtually no rights, especially in the south. Women did have basic rights.

Back when the middle class actually existed.

Actually Rosa Parks was already sitting in the back of the bus, what happened was the bus was full and a white dude got on, so the driver asker her and 3 other people to give up their seats so the white guy could sit alone. That's what she refused to do.

I am SO EXCITED for the next episode.

Excellent video! It's ironic that Eisenhower sent in the 101st Airborne Division, a division he had used in the invasion of Normandy. But getting back on track, thanks for the video, it really helped me out with my revision. Thanks!!!

Does anyone know if Crashcourse's done anything about mixed people or chinese immigrates in the older days. Or any good documentaries about them? I'm kinda interested to learn a bit more about ti but can't find any good sources

Interesting fact that law school in Texas he spoke about is now Thurgood Marshall School of Law.

As a Brit there are many things I admire about the USA but the period of segregation and racism is a horrible stain on its recent history and I can't help but feel a pang of pride that such a thing never happened in Britain. Theres a wonderful true story about British reactions to segregation of American troops stationed in Britain preparing for D-Day. A investigation was launched to see how American troops and British civilians were getting along and one investigator went into a local pub not far from an American base, and he asked the landlady if there had been any problems, any fights that sort of thing between the troops and the locals. The landlady replied "oh no, lovely fellows they are, nice to all the girls always quick to buy a round" etc etc. "really?" replied the investigator, "no problems at all?" "Oh no they're wonderful" said the landlady dreamily. "Are you absolutely sure?" demanded the Investigator. "Well..", the landlady said, "there is one thing…" "Yes, what is it?" Inquired the investigator. "Well I don't want to cause a fuss", said the landlady timidly, " I like the Americans very much but I don't much care for the white ones they brought along with them…" I love that story.

Lucas Hanson I don't remember saying anything like that at all, I simply remarked that there was never racial segregation in Britain and then went on to tell a somewhat amusing story. I make no pretensions about Britain's Imperial History but what I do argue for is the average British persons natural aversion to racism, militarism and our good sense when consulted on matters of racism. Lets not forgot it was British money that paid for the freeing of Frederick Douglass and many others from slavery.

Simon Boyne Considering that those protests eventually evolved into the IRA, it's hardly a good-v-evil situation. As a brit myself i understand my country hardly has a perfect history (or present). But if you study the rhetoric of 20th century american and brit politicians, there is a clear difference towards opinions of immigrants, non-whites and segregation.

brilliant writing once again. love this series.

I recon that a Crash Course Uk history would be interesting as many people out side the uk don't know much.

"...despite the fact that they were being stuffed into tiny metal cylinders and hurtled through the air..." Tell us how you really feel john.

4:11 the subtitles are VERY off

It's sad there are thumbs down on a video like this one... this is a great short series,or whatever the category under which this falls under

This is a great video!! He explains the 50's very well.

understood the Calhoun reference, success!

Thank you so much for these awesome videos! Have you considered, or previously discussed, issues in regard to First Nation people or Native American genocide in America? I'm pursuing a degree in History with a certificate in Public History and I notice in my University here in South Dakota that the issue isn't very deeply addressed or dissected. Thanks for what you do!

I use these videos for my college courses and they help so very much

Funny how you did this while we are studying this in Mississippi Studies!! Really helps.
