Douglas was so wrapped up in his work that he didn’t even bother recognizing if slave swapping happened on his own plantation. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

The reason Douglas had become rich so quickly was from nearly a decade of income from slave labor. This allowed him to enter the booming Chicago real estate market. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

Douglas gaining ground so fast that he bought every piece of real estate he could get his hands on when he and his newly wed wife moved to Chicago. #AuburnWorldHistory

@PrestonFhistory This crossed my mind too. It’s interesting to see how this crime was happening so early in history and how it has evolved to present day. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

@BlueHeron3812 I heavily agree with this. If the people begin to protest and stand up for what is right it will help bring change. The bravery these people had to stand up while being an imminent danger is incredible. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

All these people fought every day to decide between what was right and what was wrong. “The Square” did a great job of portraying them bide groom this revolution that happened over a decade ago. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

Getting to hear the personal stories and emotional drama these people experienced was very eye opening during this film. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

It was interesting to see a perspective from many different people on the struggle of the Egyptian revolution. We got to see real story of what dangers these people faced on a regular basis.#AuburnWorldHistory

@ForestWhistory I thought about the same thing. Being an artist is not easy and lack of good living conditions can eventually take a toll on you when trying to make it in the music industry. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

It is stated in the excerpt that the black community in New Orleans is much more accepting of the average homosexual person when performing than other groups. Do y’all agree with this? #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

The author claims that hip hop is one of the most homophobic cultures in America along with bigotry towards women and an advocacy of violence. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

I thought it was interesting how in the excerpt that the author gives dialogue while also teaching the reader about specific genres of music and dance pertaining to the story. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

Capitalism itself struggled from neoliberalism because money would not circulate back into production and was flowing into land grabs and asset procurement instead. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

There was a lot of resistance which helped push neoliberalism in the 1970’s. This came from labor and communist parties in Europe. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

Once the turn to neoliberal politics happened, crises started to occur much more often than before. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

@AbdulmalikAlre1 I definitely agree with this. We definitely do not discuss it as much as we should. Neoliberalism covers it up to a degree and must be recognized and sorted out. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

I thoroughly enjoyed watching Strangelove but my only complaint would be is that it was pretty slow. It was very informative and had valuable messages. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

Strangelove was great because the good acting portrayed the real experiences these people went through in an authentic manner. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

The level of stress these people went through while in the air was through the roof. Made you understand the severity of what they were doing. #AuburnWorldHistory

[CushHistory @CushHistory2]

@EmmaBollinger19 I agree. The fact they would put themselves through these conditions and experience this makes you realize how patriotic these people were. #AuburnWorldHistory
