"I can only imagine how LONG and HARD you've worked to get the phrase beef-boner into the show and you finally did it." You have one sense of humor John
Our APush teacher made us spend two days listening to a reading of The Jungle. The only reaction I got from that novel, besides vomitting into my mouth, was joy from guessing the mystery document correctly.
Alicia Selvera I studied this in middle school lol...I was sick to my stomach and I didn't eat the meat in school cause it would always remind me of the books description..took me long to get over it lmao.
Mr. Green, you are simply THE BEST because unlike many many school teachers you don't scream, get neurotic or lose patience and you have precise and clear thoughts. Most importantly passion!
Hey! Thanks so much for what you do. I teach AP and Dual US History (and government and Eco) and use these to either introduce a unit or sum it up. They are awesome! Showing the TARDIS and using the phrase "timey wimey" just bumped you and your writers to the top of my high esteem list. These quiky ditties filled with both historical facts and current pop culture entertain my little nerds and broaden the horizons of my bright, but non-nerds as we go through and explain the references. Keep it up, you are very much appreciated.
A video on the Progressive Era without mention of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire? One of the biggest work place tragedies in American History? The event responsible for nearly all workplace safety laws in the U.S.? That Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire? And you omitted it? Come on, man.
As much as I like my AP teacher, APUSH doesn't let him teach everything in 2 semesters. So I gotta do, currently 8 AMSCO's and 40+ US History Crash Courses. The AP test in on April.
What's great about these videos is that they are highly informative but don't take themselves too seriously. Anyone else notice the Pokéball in the cornucopia?
I've watched a number of your courses. One of the things I like about your series is that you talk really fast. If you are covering something I am familiar with, its not tedious to hear you talk about it. If its new to me, I can usually absorb the information. If I need to, its not a bother to back up and listen to the not fully assimilated section again. Good job, and entertaining in a "learning something important" way.
Watching these videos transports me to a very specific time in my life and it is WILD because I'm supposed to watch these in teacher mode and instead I feel like I'm in 10th grade.
You saved my butt in a test that I study last minute for I’m not sure how to show my thankfulness to you but I want you to know that I’m thankful for you making these videos
This is a great series, you really present the information well given the limited time. Thank you for making these! They've been a Perfect way to go over concepts! 👍💕📚
"It goes 'bing' when there's stuff!" That's not the only thing I got out of this. Thanks for helping me truly understand the stuff that was discussed in my sadly boring history lectures. You are a godsend.
I used to be so blissfully ignorant of Jim Crow laws and blatant racism that the Rosa Parks story didn't even make sense to me when I first learned of it. ...and then my childhood died =(
Why do people try to cram? They know that it never works, ever. Just study when you're supposed to like normal human beings. Games can wait. Friends can wait. Television can wait. They aren't more important than the rest of your life, which is what you're going to ruin by not getting through school and *getting a good job.*
Remember the Bull Moose Party under Teddy Roosevelt? Or the Progressive Party under Henry Wallace, the communist vice president under Theodore Roosevelt? I think we need a Progressive Party for the modern day.
I liiiiterally just realized this is John Green after he made a TFIOS reference smh I have all of his books and always watch these videos to help with my assignments and I barley realized this now oh well this is awesome
Nothing makes me happier than being in my main man JRuts US History class. I learn everything from how to love and how communism spread fear throughout the states. Jrut likes warm snuggles. I have nothing but respect for him😤😤😤
The Jungle made me sick too. I was already a vegetarian and it just reaffirmed my choice. Nasty book with a lot of hidden messages mixed into the gunk.
Great video, one thing you forgot to mention that is very important during this time is the creation of the Sherman anti trust act that limited monopolization.
THANK YOU so much for making videos like this.Its going to help me on my U.S history test that I'll be taking soon😂😍Our teacher likes to show us these every unit and they really help😏
