Currently in an Auburn world history class, tweeting my responses to the readings and documentaries!

@time4skyy I agree! It was a weird passing of the torch! #AuburnWorldHistory

Douglas really had a plan from the beginning. He was going to make sure to make as much money off of the trade business as he possibly could. #AuburnWorldHistory

I find it interesting that the people of today's time are stuck cleaning up the issues of the past. For example, the University of Chicago's ugly history has to be repaired by people today. #AuburnWorldHistory

It's amazing to me how we are still seeing the affects of slavery in this day and age. It's been 157 years since the abolishment of slavery and we're still dealing with it. #AuburnWorldHistory

I can't imagine having to grow up in a village and start working to get by at early as the fifth grade, and then in a community of such oppression #AuburnWorldHistory

When people are unified in such a strong way as shown in the documentary, it makes me wonder their backgrounds and why they are so passionate about for what they're fighting #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

I wonder if America would ever reach a point of unity in the way the Egyptians did in that situation #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

@caropchildress I agree. I also think that whenever people are united in numbers, it's easier to be brave. So when a whole group of people come together like that, it's more impactful and sends a strong message

@emma_decaigny Same here! It's very interesting listening to new music genres! #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

Big Freedia sounds like someone who doesn't care what other people think!

I love how music continues to evolve over the years constantly adopting new genres such as "Bounce"

The difference between the culture of New Orleans and the rest of the state of Louisiana is super intriguing to me

Getting weird looks in #chipotle rn because I’m not wearing workout clothes drenched in sweat

[bay thomas @bayt123]

@WorldHistoryII2 this makes sense. there is more to solving a problem than identifying issues, too; you have to figure out how to solve them #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

It’s crazy to think about how such a big concept such as globalization can affect countries on a micro level, like how individuals think pollitcally. this idea is accelerated in our current age where technology plays such a roll #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

I didn’t realize that technological change was the leading cause for a labor shortage (according to the article) #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

It’s funny how the evolution of labor and wages has resulted in these radical views described in the article. Are there disparities or greed or both #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

@Rileykhudson7 I agree! They made a light hearted film about such a dark subject that affected countless lives. #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

I can't imagine what it would have been like being a citizen of either of these countries during these times. Thinking that any day, there could be an attack launched on their nation would be a scary reality to live in. #AuburnWorldHistory

[bay thomas @bayt123]

Something super intriguing about this whole thing is that the U.S. wanted so badly to stop the spread of communism that we were almost willing to start a nuclear war over it. #AuburnWorldHistory
