"Chapter 2: Drawing the Color Line" (p. 23-38)
Time to learn the truth behind this nation's ugliest sin, its greatest shame, and its defining core element - the institution that what we call the United States of America is fundamentally built upon: Slavery.
Don't be deceived by the fact that a Black face will most likely be in the White House soon, because American slavery is very much STILL a thing - and if we're ever going to actually abolish it for good, we need to learn how it started and the historical and societal conditions it developed in.
You think America's bad? Well, it's SOOO much worse than that.
This is A People's History of the United States.

This week in 1831, 193 years ago, enslaved Black carpenter and preacher Nat Turner led a slave uprising that killed over fifty white slaveowners and their families, and is arguably the most significant uprising in American history.
This week in 2024, on Friday, we're going to talk about both of these men and their movements' close connection to each other and to the world today, as well as at the root of ALL of our species' problems.

By Bisan: Vol. 3 is, like its two predecessors, a documentary compilation of Bisan’s Instagram coverage of the Gaza Holocaust from April 23rd , 2024 to August 1st, 2024 – days 201 to 300 of the genocide. But this Volume is different in that its editor, Vivian Strange, has finally inserted herself into the story to reflect how the Gaza genocide has impacted her as she's followed Bisan through this valley of death for over 300 days.
The Palestinian Holocaust has lasted over 300 days, nearly an entire year straight of relentless bombardment by the Z!0n!st entity and terrorist state "Israel"...directly facilitated and funded every step of the way by the United States government and its Western allies. We've tried to stop it, through massive global protests, Gaza Solidarity Encampments on dozens of college campuses, boycotts and divestments, and making a lot of noise on social media...but none of it has stopped the bombs from falling on Bisan and her beloved Gaza.
I've asked everyone to watch and share the documentaries in this series, because of how suppressed they are by YouTube and social media algorithms...but that hasn't really seemed to do much, so watch and share this entry if it pleases you; after all, it's not like these historical records are something that over 160 Palestinian journalists have been assassinated to prevent from reaching the masses or anything...
...otherwise, avert your eyes, continue to blissfully go about your days, and fill your social media with insipid "discourse" about movies and celebrities and Disney shows or whatever it is that's more important to you than children getting massacred with American bombs. It makes absolutely no difference now.
Really, what else is there to say?
(this film is the best answer I have to offer)
Bisan, whether you ever see this or not...I'm so so sorry...
...but never EVER forgive us. We don't deserve the grace.

This is the Diary Cut of BY BISAN: VOL. 2, a documentary compilation of Bisan’s Instagram coverage of the Gaza Holocaust from January 15th , 2024 to April 23rd, 2024 – days 101 to 200 of the genocide. This was assembled in the interest of inspiring the masses to form solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for liberation in the face of this monstrous colonial violence.
But our Bisan is not just a journalist; she is a Hakawatya (“storyteller”) committed to documenting and displaying the rich beauty of Palestinian culture, history, and everyday life. This is not just the record of a Holocaust, but an unprecedented portrayal of the strength, kindness, and humanity of a people who have never wavered in defying their oppressors with undefeatable joy and their passionate love of life.
Let the world watch this and come to understand the people we've failed for over 200 days – Let it reinvigorate our commitment to fighting for a free Palestine. This is not just History - this is REALITY, and it is NOT OVER.
Bisan, if you ever see this...thank you, for everything. Please forgive me.

Here in this hot revolutionary summer of 2024, it's a very weird time to be an American. Every single one of us can at least FEEL this thing we call History unfolding all around us; we all seem to just understand on some level that we are living through historically significant times.
After all, this fall, the battle for American democracy culminates in Election Day, apparently the most important election in our lifetime, if not in all of American history!
If this is something you believe, then we need to learn some actual American history together. So for the next few months, we're going to read A People's History of the United States, by Howard Zinn, one of if not THE most important historical nonfiction text in US history.
This book contains a more truthful telling of the America's brutal and violent history than you've probably ever heard before - ESPECIALLY if you were educated in US public schools, where children are brainwashed by wall-to-wall revisionist colonizer propaganda, narratives built on lies, omissions, and delusional dangerous myths.
In these weird and unsettling times, defined by mass death and g3n0c1d3 juxtaposed with the trivial spectacle of red vs blue political theatre, it's more important than EVER to study and learn the human histories underlying the entire system connecting -- and controlling -- all humankind.

For over 200 days and nights, Bisan Owda, a Palestinian journalist, activist, and content creator has been documenting the Zionist occupation’s genocide of her people in Gaza, sharing the truth of the colonizers’ horrific crimes to the rest of the world – in real time, via social media.
This is Volume II of BY BISAN, a documentary compilation of Bisan’s Instagram coverage of the Gaza Holocaust from January 15th , 2024 to April 23rd, 2024 – days 101 to 200 of the genocide. This was assembled in the interest of inspiring the masses to form solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for liberation in the face of this monstrous colonial violence.

This is not just the record of a Holocaust, but an unprecedented portrayal of the strength, kindness, and humanity of a people who have never wavered in defying their oppressors with undefeatable joy and their passionate love of life.
Let the world watch this and come to understand the people we've failed for over 200 days – Let it reinvigorate our commitment to fighting for a free Palestine. This is not just History - this is REALITY, and it is NOT OVER.
Bisan, if you ever see this: thank you for everything you’ve done. I’m so sorry we’ve taken so long to act. I pray that one day we can meet and walk together in a free Palestine…please stay alive until then.

FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA,
PALESTINE WILL BE FREE!
Twenty-five years after these immortal words were uttered by pop-punk poet and philosopher Blink-182, they remain truer than ever...except now we only Work harder for less pay. Do we really need to Work to make society function? Could Work actually be a scam invented by Big Business to make money off our labor and keep us tired and miserable so we stay in line?
Do we REALLY have to live like this?

I've been an anarchist for fifteen years, and the literature of the decentralized anarchist group CrimethInc Ex-Workers' Collective was essential to my liberation of thought, and now I would like to share their essays with you. There are a lot of misunderstandings and dangerous myths about anarchism floating around, so it's time to dispel the mystery and clearly explain what exactly we mean when we say "No Gods, No Masters."
Today, we're reading from their flagship manifesto, a collection of essays called "Days of War, Nights of Love," assembled and first published in 2001.
Link: crimethinc.com/books/days-of-war-nights-of-love
Also, I live in poverty and am attempting to move this year to somewhere more affordable than the city I'm in currently. So this will be a fundraising stream for that as well. Please consider giving if (and only if) you are able to, but even if you don't have money to donate, your attention and education are what's really important here: listen, think critically, discuss things and ask questions in chat as they come up, and do your part to get as many eyes and ears on this as possible.
Thanks to everyone 💜

Also, I live in poverty and am attempting to move this year to somewhere more affordable than the city I'm in currently. So this will be a fundraising stream for that as well. Please consider giving if (and only if) you are able to, but even if you don't have money to donate, your attention and education are what's really important here: listen, think critically, discuss things and ask questions in chat as they come up, and do your part to get as many eyes and ears on this as possible.
Thanks to everyone 💜

I've been an anarchist for fifteen years, and the literature of the decentralized anarchist group CrimethInc Ex-Workers' Collective was essential to my liberation of thought, and now I would like to share their essays with you. There are a lot of misunderstandings and dangerous myths about anarchism floating around, so it's time to dispel the mystery and clearly explain what exactly we mean when we say "No Gods, No Masters."

@Shaun_vids
@BotheredBoy
For over 100 days, Palestinian journalist and storyteller Bisan Owda has documented Israel's genocide of her people and shared it with the world via social media. Most of us have seen Bisan's story unfold in pieces over the last three-and-a-half months, but in this documentary, her work has been compiled and assembled into a singular piece, in the interest of informing and inspiring the masses to form solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for liberation in the face of monstrous colonial violence.
This is not just a timeline of war updates though, as our Bisan is a storyteller and creator who has committed herself to documenting and displaying the rich beauty of Palestinian culture, history, and everyday life. This is not just the record of a Holocaust, but an unprecedented portrayal of the strength, kindness, determination, and humanity of a population who has never wavered in defying their oppressors with a passionate appreciation and love of life.
Let the world watch this and come to understand the people we've failed for over 100 days, and let it renew and reinvigorate our resolve and commitment to fighting for a free Palestine. This is not just History - this is REALITY, and it is NOT OVER.
Bisan, if you ever see this...thank you. You have changed this world and the people in it more than you or any of us can possibly understand, and humankind is forever indebted to you and your work. You will never be forgotten, and Palestine WILL be free!

Please watch and share this documentary wherever you can, because this is something that the world needs to see, and social media algorithms will not be kind to it. These are voices and stories that the Powers That Be have murdered countless journalists and storytellers to suppress; do not let them silence us.
Happy Holidays 💜

DISCLAIMER: re: my disclaimer about making this video during the WGA/SAG-AFTRA strikes: I mean no offense against any other individual YouTubers who have included similar disclaimers in their videos. This whole section is just me doing exactly the same thing, but in my characteristic abrasive and obnoxious manner where I posture like I’m better than everyone else. the joke is, I’m a self-righteous hypocrite, who’ll take any opportunity to sincerely remind my audiences to p💀rate movies and not give your hard-earned money to film studios. So, sincerest of apologies to anyone who have felt personally attacked or offended by this part.

Happy Pride Month!! Here’s an queer video from my old (now-deleted) channel about EUPHORIA!
Keep in mind, I made this in late 2020/early 2021, so there is absolutely nothing about Season Two or the specials in here. This is just a burgeoning YouTuber’s first attempt at making a video essay. Despite its faults (and my weird 2020 tryhard voice), I hope y’all enjoy it!

(so this video was made in a bit of a hurry, and there's some particularly spicy and...strongly worded takes in here that might upset some folks. Come in good faith and be nice. Remember, first and foremost, I'm an artist and entertainer, and getting emotionally invested in my opinions will inevitably result in disappointment)

Selected Works of Intersectional Feminism You Should Read Instead of Wasting Your Time Cyber-bullying a Haughty White Woman in Her YouTube Comments:
- On Intersectionality: Essential Writings of Kimberlé Crenshaw
- Black Feminist Thought: Knowledge, Consciousness and the Politics of Empowerment - by Patricia Hill Collins
- Women, Race, and Class - by Angela Davis (honestly, anything by Angela Davis)
- This Bridge Called My Back: Writings by Radical Women of Color - edited by Cherríe Moraga & Gloria E. Anzaldúa
- Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza - by Gloria E. Anzaldúa
I'm not very well-read in contemporary intersectional feminist academic literature, but the videos of @KhadijaMbowe are FULL of fantastic resources, as well as being an excellent primary source on intersectional theory themself!

a bitch got emotional.
so she ruminated on what Godard's passing and its context inside cinema history means, and what it all suggests about cinema and culture today.
