US History: 1865 to Present

[1extenderpro]

A lot of transformation done till now.

[RonpaulFTMFW]

The 'internationale' has so-opted the educational system in the U.S.

[PHANTOMSLAYER7]

American history is the most cowardly and disgusting narrative anyone could possibly conceive of, and it continues in its disgrace.

[markfmu84]

Just took this class and thanks to videos like this one I made an A...research channel you rocks

[bevnae]

@markfmu84 Good work! Can you tell me which other videos you used? Thanks a lot.

[pierce464]

This is not history. This is opinion.

[Ariel62073]

How many homosexual presidents have we had in the United States? I mean "had" in the following sense: How many gays have been president?

[Brittniepimental]

@Ariel62073 not any openly gay men but sure, there is the distinct possibility that they have been 'closeted'

[Ariel62073]

@Brittniepimental That is interesting.

[pumpadour]

At 4min. They talk about the three things in the US foreign policy. While they mention the reasons for the first two they never explain the third. So - please anyone - Why US supports Israel - when it is against our interests? I will appreciate real answers not the cliché like Israel is democracy. It is not like Saudi Arabia is not, but is a brutal monarchy, but we support it too - so what is it?

[oldstock1607]

@pumpadour There are a number of reasons: 1. Our government, (senate, house, local governments) contain very prominent, influential, wealthy pro-Israel jews, 2. The judeo-christian tradition: many religious Americans buy the belief that Jews are chosen of god, and that aiding them is a religious duty. 3. Jews are heavily involved in every concievable form of American media, and many use this outlet to steer easily-influenced americans into a pro-Israeli stance. Israeli scientists are always on

[oldstock1607]

@oldstock1607 the cutting edge of military (and other) technology, and they willingly share this with the U.S. Abandoning Israel would jeapordize this, and finally, (and not surprisingly) Money. If the U.S. were to withdraw its unqualified support from Israel, wealthy Jews would destroy America economically, as they have done to other nations in centuries past.

[pumpadour]

@oldstock1607

So we are manipulated by the jews to the point of becoming their voluntary slaves? I thought so...

[oldstock1607]

@pumpadour Essentially. For those to whom it isn't "vountary" it is involuntary (economic.) The U.S. is already on the verge of economic ruin. Alienating the Jews at this point would be absolutely calamitous.

[JosePablo24]

fake and gay

[Sigolet]

But, on the whole, a very good introduction to American history.

[Sigolet]

Ms. Welke at 7:44 discusses American "de-industrialization" as though it were an explicit policy of the U.S. government. Of course, it wasn't. Rather, it should be called "un-industrialization" as more and more of our key manufacturing industries were moved off-shore due to our so-called free trade policy.

She seems to imply that "de-industrialization" was an unavoidable phenomenon, like the change of the seasons, instead of the result of a trade policy that is disasterous for American labor.

[iamastupidhead84]

I love history! :)

[ExquisiteDoom]

Wtf, ever since they "Regulated capitalism" the rate of accidents remained about the same but the legislative costs and productivity losses , when priced, went through the roof. I thought the video did a great job until it started to gloss over basic economic facts that are well known in the chicago and austrian schools. The rate of accidents was already decreasing quickly ever since government evolvement stopped that in it's tracks and sent costs to the moon.

[cypresspuz]

18 americans allergic to thruth, and they got the right to vote.

[chiparoo222]

Added to my American History playlist.

I think the negative remarks represent complaints that no four-letter words were used in this presentation. It's one of the major cultures of the YouTube mob - foul language.

[HatOfWisdom]

It's impossible to find an unbiased US history document.

Thanks, world.

[phil4508]

ignorance is just that ignorance...if one does not know, it is difficult to formulate a good question, or even to find an answer...

[CupisHomines]

uh yes it is. i like to wear iron heels. crush capitalism.

[jjoejeans]

so be it if we all die.......i personally am not scared to..... its our own fault we polluted this planet............ but whatever, ill die for america no matter what i was born in italy,,,and my parents brought me to america....... im 25 sure that doesnt mater

[jjoejeans]

is it just me or do we have plenty of our own oil

[RainbowManification]

@jjoejeans it it just me or is oil economically unsustainable in the long run?

[TiminPhoenix]

@RainbowManification There is enough for last least a few hundred years, as long as silly Leftists/Uber Enviromentalists don't insist on us living in 3rd World Conditions.

[RainbowManification]

@TiminPhoenix Well scientist don't know for sure, we think there is enough oil in the Alaskan frontier to last about 40 years at the current rate of consumption. However eventually it is going to run out.

[TiminPhoenix]

@RainbowManification And there are other scientists that there are, as I wrote, hundreds of years of Oil left. And yes, oil will run out, but windmills and fairy dust isn't going to power anything.

When faced with real policy issues, too many people on the left, thus Enviromentalists rely on dreams, wishes on alternative systems that frankly have little promise not to mention the time it would take for infrastructure.

And the same haters of the oil industry faint at the mention of Nuclear.

[BeNNzuFG]

Where else would you TEACH 'popular culture' than in the US? Does Japan teach the history of Toyota or karaoke?

Why not teach something serious instead? Like a discussion about the writings of Edgar Allan Poe, Ralph Waldo Emmerson, Walt Witman, Mark Twain, Ernest Hemmingway etc, or US composers like Leonard Bernstein, the history of Jazz in the US etc.

Instead they are talking about I-Pods and other stupid crap, which is anything else than relevant in a history class...

[Johnnycho122]

is there a reason this is more an infomercial for this woman's and other contributor's lecture(s) than an actual chronological history of the US? i'm not saying it's bad, it's just not what the video tag implies. i'll check out the link but, wtf?

[jammzz2007]

I LOVE the what she says at the end "question what I've said" because that just opens the door a little bit more,you don't need a link just Google the topic you'll find more than enough info to make up yor own mind.

[UnlabledLabler]

I bet none of the people offering criticism would lift a finger to change anything. They like complaining and offering conspiracy theories too much. Nothing will change while you sit on your couch watching CNN or FOX or whatever you watch, tutting at the way things are. The only reason the government is the way it is is because anyone who doesn't like it doesn't bother to run for office or to try and change it and the people who do run like things the way they are. Go out and vote. Best policy!

[johnsammyanfal]

After WW2 the British Empire died over night and the USA has now replaced it. America did not contain Communism during the Cold War, but was instead contained by it. The USA is now reaching its imperial high water mark in central asia, which is a region it is trying to control to split the eurasian land mass in half and gain strategic control of the precious mineral and oil resources. From its inception the USA was an Empire in denial - hidden by its assumed manifest destiny.

[Vidgames123]

That who is ashamed truly is an ignorant American. All country's have issues. French give up and Germans like to start shit. (No offense i know that was the past, but so is this.)

[sandhilldiva]

no nation is perfect,just like no person is perfect. i can honestly say I HAVE NEVER BEEN ASHAMED TO BE AN AMERICAN!!!!!

[jaimesandoval1988]

@sandhilldiva Would you not feel ashamed of the way the US treated the African Americans for over 200 years? I am not ashamed of my country, but, I am ashamed, aswell as proud, of certain periods and legislations implemented in the US. It is not fair, in my opinion, to judge a country as a whole, because as you said no country is perfect.

[suutari13]

and not a word about the jewish masters

[jirishus]

No reason to be ashamed there are pros and cons of any nation at any point in history

[Clwsfan864]

I don't know about the rest of you but I am ashamed to be American

[bsatom]

Inbred hateful unhappy racist cannot even spell. Now that is funny shit. Make sure to wipe, fool. Must have great breath....

[StillWaterRunsDeepSc]

How smart are all of you when you're mispelling every two words? You can't argue a point effectively with mistakes like that. Who would pay attention? I wouldn't.

[BuBzIeNYNY]

if all the gov't's money is in ur bank i hope i didn't fail

[jacksite2007]

America has no history,yet t thinks it is up there with the amount of history European countries like England. The English have so much history that they dont even talk about the majority of it because there is just too much. America makes a big deal out of the independance slaughter where they murdered the british who were under order not to retaliate and march up, handing over the declaration. The americans jumped into ww2 at the end and took a tonne of money-not being in it from the start

[BuBzIeNYNY]

@jacksite2007 ur a smitget in our history, our banks wern't bombed by nazis or japs if ne thing most of the world moved thier gold reserve into our banks bcus they were scaried

[onesexychamp]

@jacksite2007

You are soooooooooooooo dumb. U.S. Does have a history and culture. It is relatively knew and if you remember we saved you from Germany.

[fetalalien1369]

Ever think that one way to teach people about history is to actually make it half way interesting? I mean, damn. This is boring....and we're talking about world war for fuck's sake.

[fireball897]

This is like a really bad high school presentation.

[StillWaterRunsDeepSc]

@fireball897

Funny. I'm in highschool.

[SteveXnycperformance]

Liberty(free) is the back bone of Communist(brave).If the Union(men) of the America states deceit the American people into the creation of the cooperate/capitalist/communist nation in 1861, what make you think,they will have any care for the people?.today.the same class of people are doing the same thing with the UN (replace USA) and NATO(replace US military) to bring the global government(2010).

[SteveXnycperformance]

What will become of your liberty(backbone) or constitution?The constitution is a tool to chain the citizen to the system ((legal) Law (tender) Care = money).The force protect & serve the system, not you. But you use the tool to shackle your self to the system, and cry (free (are u) dom).

[ihavekankles]

@KKKSuperFan

Isn't that what history is largely? War, and the lives of the people at the time. The only thing laughable about American history is the hypocrisy. America claims to hate imperialism and yet the expansion of the United States was no different than any other empire. You must be proud.

[beherit15]

I better search for this information, somewhere else

[zg76]

Protective regulations brought something good?? Managed capitalism???... Idiots

[avq5]

christophr columbus was agreat american hero who helped the colonysfight the indiains and plimouth rock

[yendytok]

David Cameron’s forebears have a long history in financial racketeering. His great-great grandfather, Emile Levita, a German Jew, was related to the German-Jewish Goldsmid banking family, and obtained British citizenship in 1871. He was the director of the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China.

[biiiiirdman]

I found this very useful as well

[NHMoldInspector]

It is sad a private group of bankers is stripping our rights and printing our money. End the Fed Reserve and we might have a chance at restoring the Republic.

[torruco24]

What is the name that cried?British arrived!

[njguitarnewbjk]

i must say that USA is the best country in the world and that I'm thankful I can go to sleep at night and live my life in peace because USA is the most powerful country in the world and we have the most powerful military and defense in the world. Even though our countries has setback and imperfections. We can still live each day in peace and love life for what it is instead of focusing on all the negative things. Because life can't get any better than in the USA.

[goldrays]

How can everyone expect to support all those social systems and keep a wife at home? Its one thing to put regulations in that protect from personal injurry, but its another when my money isnt mine personally. As for religon, it doesnt take einstien to figure out its there for the most part to create raceism. People go where they believe they are accepted. Progressive propaganda, someone isnt telling the truth.

[yomamasapeach]

history is written by the victor was said by general shephard in MW2

[hempartist420]

@yomamasapeach how depressing you are

[yomamasapeach]

@hempartist420 LOL, I just played the game.

[hempartist420]

@yomamasapeach depressing

[jasonnk1]

man fuck america the countries curruped and racest

[EngelbrektSverige]

@jasonnk1 America made you what you are!

[91jbarra]

@jasonnk1"man fuck america the countries curruped and racest" fuck you where are you from man? Is it any better where you're from? Ask yourself that before you start insulting people

[jasonnk1]

@91jbarra australia its not as corrupt as america we get fuken senterlink witch means our parents get money till wer 18 to help support them in america the poor sit there die

[surfhoss644]

this blows... it is just piece-work history. All of these "history" clips seem to have an agenda.  the best one I've seen to-date was published by the History Channel.

[Alexhackedone]

The US is Crown Land the king of England i considered the prince of the US the president acts for the monarchy of England, The US is no different to England than Canada/Australia. The only difference is we're not a country.

[aresgodofwar10]

lmfao "american history" lol what history.

[JessicaBelle81]

The industrial revolution pulled people out of poverty! I knew this video was going to be an attempt by Progressives to rewrite history and bash Capitalism.

[titansgs]

@JessicaBelle81 Liberal this, progressive that--it's craziness. If you want to live your life thinking everything you don't like can be classified using one of two terms, you will become a cranky old lady afraid of all new things. Just embrace the idea that this country was founded on, and grown, by a variety of cultures, races and classes. And without any of them, we will all be less because of it.

[Eivan10R]

United States history is the most interesting. this starts right after the Civil War right?

[DavidChoiDrumz]

@Eivan10R

Other country's history is also pretty interesting. Yes, since the civil war lasted from 1861~1865

[Conail23]

every history class i take seems to criticize the US relentlessly. It is soo concentrated on minorities and on their disenfrachisement that the rest of the story is neglected.

[JayGBardo]

Actually the USA was the worlds superpower long before 1945. Actually USA was in that position by the 1876 World's Fair.

[chubbyboy50000]

great help! thank you!!!

[1888junkteam]

excellent work!

[sarahpalinslover]

nice video

[erylone]

sure if they can overthrow the people who inhabit it now.

[NoukonGlobal]

@elpueblano009 no.

[SerenityIsTheMan]

@elpueblano009 The Natives agreed to live on reservations.

[raiden711]

@elpueblano009. It's our land now and will be like that forever.

[elpueblano009]

@raiden711 ok i get "It might be your land but its my planet"

[paulinotou]

@elpueblano009 when they fight for it.

[trails50]

@elpueblano009

Exellent question! The one no one wants to touch. Blowback's a bitch.

8:19 mins in, I can't take another second without pointing to the most important information that the american people need to get through their deluded heads.

YOU have TWO CONSTITUTIONS! Do the world a favor...look it up and save us the sufferage of your illusional position in the grand scheme of things. Any educator who blabbers around this? Ignorance or Collusion?

What really happened america?

[trails50]

Sp cor: Excellent

Given the fact that there are TWO Constitutions and it has been carefully hidden from generations of people not just americans...the outrage of it all!

It's safe to say billions of people have been effectively murdered by a criminal junta. See: Ralph Epperson.

When are you americans going to get tired of the smoke and mirrors?

[DELTAFORCE851]

@elpueblano009 NO.

[Juefawn]

@elpueblano009 Apparently they don't have laws against immigration?

[dcarterfrom07]

i liked american history better when it was just a feel good story about how white people kick ass......

[ChristinaNL89]

"History, its often said, is written by the victors"

Lol, anyone who believes that is a retard.

[Craigipedia]

That isn't retarded, it is totally accurate. How many histories of WWII have your read by Nazis? How about the virtues of the Confederate States of America?

[ChristinaNL89]

History is written by independent historians, who cannot be perfectly objective, but it's not like all history we read is in the interest of the victor. You should do more reading than talking for a change, then you'll notice that reality is much more complex than your conspiracy theories. Historians accept the merits and the faults of both sides. I suggest you start with Richard Evans' "In Defence of History".

[Craigipedia]

@ChristinaNL89

it isn't a conspiracy theory, I have degrees in history and political science... every person who graduates with a history degree has to take a historical theory class in which we discuss the "victors dilemma" (as I have come to calling it). Imagine if the Nazis had won WWII, we would all look back today (speaking German no doubt) and say "gosh, the world really IS better without the Jews". That doesn't make it moral or ethical, but historical framing is really important

[Craigipedia]

@ChristinaNL89

I never said it was in the interest of the victor, I said it was written by the victor. Every historian or WWII lives in a world where the Nazis lost (and the voluminous pro-Nazi/German material written in Germany was all banned in 1946 anyway). If Alexander the Great had died at Granicus (his helmet was cloven in two, but he somehow survived) Europe would have been overrun by Persia and we wouldn't remember the tiny kingdom of Macedon. Also, your ad hominem was weak

[Schattensprinter]

not uninteressting too, from university of minnesota, at the moment, i dont have so much time, to see every program, that you are broadcast to me, but thanks for the new programs on youtube, i am need to be it.

once again, greetings from europe

[rockmysock01]

The U.S. Government IS a corporation..privately owned by the Federal reserve, a private bank.

Still cant believe more people dont know this..but i guess ignorance is bliss.

[tiluu]

Lods of ppl know it. Also they are well on their way to make whole world their corporation and youtube and google and mobiles are big part of it all.

[hempartist420]

@rockmysock01 yeah, but finding out someone's got you by your nutsack, doesn't change the fact that someone's got you by the nutsack

[krstcmjns]

@rockmysock01 I dudn't know that... ignorance is bliss?

[onesexychamp]

@rockmysock01

your dumb. The U.S. Government is a government which is different than a corporation. But you are right, ignorance is a bliss.

[phil4508]

@rockmysock01 It would be interesting to find a little more on this subject...

[rockmysock01]

@phil4508 True. watch 'Money Masters: How International Bankers Gained control of America' or 'Zeitgeist Addendum' if ya wanna find out more :)

[NosoCOMINSOON]

@rockmysock01 People know now. Vote for Ron Paul 2012.

[UnlabledLabler]

@rockmysock01 If you don't like the way the government is run, do something about it. Despite the opinion of so many who dislike the government and how it's run and therefore give up and stand around shaking their heads, you CAN make a difference. Vote, raise awareness, petition, hold rallies, protest. You have more rights than you know. You can sit around on youtube offering criticism all you want, but no change will come about unless you work to implement it.

[parklinkin52]

@rockmysock01

Because the only time anyone hears about it are one liners from anonymous people like yourself, with not a shred of credible evidence.

you haven't even left a single link to back yourself up, and then you call us ignorant for not believing you... Believing a statement like the one you left would make us truly ignorant

[parklinkin52]

@rockmysock01

Not to say you are incorrect... I'm not sure

[thien3011]

@rockmysock01 the point is , what can you do? Stop buying corporate products and dont make any loan from bank, unite together and change the economic system to free system where based on sustainable economy. Product more products(not by corporation) but by yourself.

[charlesyoushouldknow]

@rockmysock01 yeh who the fuck cares... do you not enjoy your vehicle?? loser...

[Ninja1Ninja2]

@rockmysock01 The USA needs a better CEO.

[flagwaver1969]

It's all about the evil white man.

[freedomrecordsmusic]

thanks...very interesting...great point starting at 18:50 going to 21:37

[Knewt666]

Wow, great video. It was very sad in the racism part though. We still have a loooong way to go with races being equal sadly, even though we have an African American president and women are higher up in society today. This is all a good thing, it's just that we have such a long way to go yet. I do hope we make it.

<3

[Ganon2234]

i would have to say there is only a small percentage fitting your description. also i think these bad things happening are only by chance...there is the power to hate and do horrible things, yet also the power to love and do extraordinary things. this is what the common man needs to do if we are to shed the shitty things that occur around the world

[tiluu]

From thinking of white people, there carnage of each other in world wars, their lack of morality, their pervertness of sex, their prevelance of sexual transmitted diseases, their pursuit of intincts when we know humans can be devil and destructive and need to be checked and monitored by some outside force, all thiese things leave no doubt this group is shit of humanity. They invented all the weapons, mass or small destruction, these greedy selfish creatures stinks and they fail humanity.

[Zerjio]

sounds rather close-minded that you give white people all these attributes as if they were inherent traits. Kind of the same type of thought that created the philosophy of Racism.

I'm Mexican, btw.

[tiluu]

I never said they were inherited. But all of this is true and they just did it. There is not a matter of inheritance, there is something else which to me is a mystery. What i am 100% sure about is that white skin is a disease, scientifically speaking

[WOOOOPSAY]

i never said the word "inherited" either... i said the word INHERENT - which means "in their nature". You totally confused what i said.

[MrGodTube]

@Zerjio wet back

[TheHellBound666]

a human is a human.

[tiluu]

Masses are still ignorant. How many people in world knows that the white skin is a disease?

[Ganon2234]

can you link some research saying that? am i really the first person to say that? the other 7 of you think " oh that guy sucks, down thumb" support the claim please!

[tiluu]

What a incredible irony. The group of people who always dicriminated and being racist to other people on no basis other than color, come to know one day that their skin color is infact a skin disease. Search for words, melanin, and vitamin-D. If whites go to sun, they get skin cancer. If they leave sun, they lack in Vitamin-D and get other diseases including cancer. So this bucnh, who force others to call themselves first world, advanced, most competitive, are infact sick people

[HistoriTube]

This is a stunningly ignorant video. Is this a joke? Why would you post such a historically inaccurate video?

Protectionism has nothing to do with occupational safety regulations. A child has a better understanding of basic economics.

Remove this video and post an apology.

[amcnea]

How is this video historically inaccurate?

How does protectionism have nothing to do with occupational safety regulation? Isn't "safety regulation" theoretically their in order to "protect" the worker or protectionism?

Why don't you explain what you think is historically inaccurate or remove your comment and post an apology.

[Jaysnipes]

ROFL!! hahahahahhaahahahahahahaaaaaaa­! That's Rude! XD

[DrFaustus1981]

Find the use of the word "protectionist" very interesting.

shift of perspective.

[happosai21]

the council of foreign relations and how it controls the foreign policy since the 1910s or how american policies are now under the thumb of israels zionist lobby.. how hemp was prohibited because it posed a too big threat for inudstrialists the pharma and oilindustry. or how the former "american citizen" was brainwashed into retarded "consumer" since the end of ww2.. you know. the important stuff lol

[TheBigHo111]

I'm with ya on everything except Zionists controlling foreign policy. I can't stand Zionists but I think people view American government sponsorship of Israel as Israel controlling the U.S. Our government uses them as a military out post like we have done with many other governments like Iraq in the 80's or El Salvador, etc. Our politicians of course are more than willing to take bribes for further assistance. Our government is just flat out CORRUPT!

[happosai21]

hmm yes.. but you have to admit that zionists have a totally disproportional influence on american policies and they are not exactly allies. just think about the uss victory incident of june 8th 1967 i think? where israelis jets tries to sink it and killed some 170 american sailors to blame it on egypt.

yeah and the worldwide war against the third world since end of ww2 you mentioned..

[TheBigHo111]

You mean the USS Liberty? I believe this was during the 6 day war. Israel's IDF (Zionist Nazis) has admitted and said they regretted the incident. Both governments said it was friendly fire.

I think we can agree on one thing for sure, there are bad people in high places that don't give a sh*t about civilization. :0

[happosai21]

yep thats what i meant. eh i think they just publicly said that they regret it because it did not work and their were caught doing it. and your treasonous goverment even covered it up. look into it ^^ the attack lasted hours and they even called in torpedoboats when the jets couldnt sink it. while the ship had a huge us flag on top that ended up with lots of holes in the end. and yes elites are evil. just look up "georgia guidestone"

[happosai21]

you forgot some important parts. first of all the FED in 1913 that ended that america the founding fathers wanted to have. then also the colonial wars against mexico, hawaii, the philipines and cuba in the late 19th and early 20th century and before that the genocidal war against the native americans and all the broken treaties the goverment just ignored later.

[TheBigHo111]

Putting the FED aside, the lack of not mentioning the other facts is called "ethno-centric" history, meaning an Anglo version. I don't think it is intention per say from this author, but unconscious possibly.
