Auburn World History II

@FieldsAisling This is a good point. Everyone assumes it was just the south and forgets about things like this in the north. #AuburnWorldHistory

When the article said that Douglas would “work them to death” made me cringe. I know it happened, but an article like this makes it more real. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

I never knew the ties the University of Chicago had with slavery in its beginning. It definitely relates to why so many universities today are changing building names that relate to slavery. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

The fact that Douglas used slavery for his own advantage is beyond terrible. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

@JakefloydW And that’s exactly how I saw that as well. The concept of neoliberalism is a bit confusing, but it makes more sense when you see the impact it’s had. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

This article has taught me the impact neoliberalism has had on countries, and this concept is connecting some dots about things that have happened in the past. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

It’s interesting to me that a concept such as neoliberalism is what some people turn to over capitalism even though it’s a term that not many people even know the true meaning of. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

Is it just me or has anyone else never really heard much about neoliberalism before reading this article? It was a very interesting read. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

@sfreyauburn Nonchalant was the word I used to describe that scene too! But yes, the perspective after grew really intense. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

The amount of pressure that comes with a nuclear war is unimaginable, especially as a pilot, but this video gives a good perspective of what that felt like in real-time. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

Crazy how people/pilots can be so nonchalant on their way to bomb a county such a Russia. The amount of interesting facts I’m learning that took place is so cool. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

This video was so interesting! I had no idea the Cold War was nearing the direction of something so much worse. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

@TrevorSchool This is why I like these videos! I learn so much about things I feel like I should’ve known but didn’t know till now. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

@CarterZaneZane I thought the same thing! Stepping up when you’ve been stepped on must’ve been hard at times. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

The amount of passion the former AU Ambassador speaks with is so impactful. The metaphors she uses to explain what it’s like for Africa were really beneficial. Setting something up for failure and being shocked it’s not prospering is beyond unrealistic. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

As she mentioned, it must be hard to see a land and it’s people such as Africa taken advantage of and be depleted of its resources and usefulness it has of offer at the expense of gains for colonization. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

The beginning of her speech when she says “we are the most disrespected people on this Earth”, it is so hard to ignore. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

But this feeling of fighting a loosing battle fueled a demand for change, and pushing through when things seemed hopeless is what caused radical change. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

This women expressed her pain of unfairness in the 1940s so intensely through the article, and her words come from a place of defeat in her heart when things seemed like they would never get better. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

@rhisulu This quote stood out to me too! That one sentence just says so much. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Bethany Hadley @bethany_hadley1]

Fighting for your country while also fighting to be totally accepted by your country is undeniably worthy of respect. #AuburnWorldHistory
