For the past month, I’ve been working on this video about the history of Earth Day for the Untold Pitch Competition. It would be great if you could like this post to help my video win and become its own Untold video! Image references in this video are available upon request.
@AmericaByDesign May 28, 1830: President Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act, forcing Native Americans to relocate from their homes and move westward on foot.

Jim Thorpe, a multi sport athlete who was the first Native American to win Olympic gold in the pentathlon and decathlon in 1912, also went on to play pro baseball, football, and basketball. #hiddenfigures#untoldeduXC
@AmericaByDesign I had no idea that Florida had that stand your ground law. That’s crazy that the man got away with murdering the 17 year old when HE was the one following and harassing the kid.
@AmericaByDesign A woman got prison for life for transporting cocaine, which was her ONLY crime, because the judge was forced to. It makes you think about our justice system and how flawed it is.
@AmericaByDesign The visuals they use to show the lyrics of songs in the transitions are cool because it forces you to see what the artist is really saying.
@AmericaByDesign It really goes to show how the president can have major effects on communities in America, like how Nixon's claim of a war on crime caused an insane increase of arrests on black people for protesting for their rights during the civil rights movement.
@AmericaByDesign It was crazy to see how the black and latino communities were targeted because of the harsher penalties on crack than cocaine, which was more "sophisticated" and "suburban".

Dear Britain,
I have tried to settle our arguments peacefully, but time and time again you continue to belittle me. You have control issues dude, so the best thing for me is to remove myself from the situation.
Have a good life,
-America
-the amount of equipment and wires used for the child
-both mom and nurse are wearing masks
-the colorful curtains with designs on them
-the heart shaped label attacked to the equipment
