There definitely isn't a way to repay the victims of slavery, especially since some forms of it still goes on today.

It is apparent that Douglas was never content with the amount of money he had, even after he gained a bunch of real-estate he still decided to work a third of his slaves to death. #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

It's so crazy to think about how much timing plays an affect in how Douglas earned his fortune. #auburnworldhistory

Right off the bat this reading informs us of how some parts of history are kept hidden by discussing the funding of the University of Chicago. #auburnworldhistory

I noticed this shift too, it was a very strange shift in tone.

[student0023 @dmj0023]

The regime leaders speech starts off as passionate towards the youth of their country saying “I speak to all of you from the heart, like a father to his sons and daughters” but changes his tone to hatred towards the youth saying they hope they suffer first.

This revolution was so intriguing to me, to hear about the differences that all of these people set aside to reach one common goal. To have their basic rights and freedom. #auburnworldhistory

This documentary drew so many different emotions out of me, I can't even begin to imagine how it actually felt to be in the square when they were informed that Mubarak stepped down as President. #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

One specific thing that stuck out to me was when Aida talked about how they were not done when Mubarak stepped down from power since there was still a chance someone from his same regime could take power. #auburnworldhistory

i liked how Harvey answered the question about there being two sides to neoliberalism, he acknowledged that that there is never one clear cut side. this is similar to what we have noticed this year. theres always more to the story. #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

I haven't heard of this term either until now, it is crazy how this class constantly pushes the idea that we really don't have a lot of knowledge about world history at all.

[Ashley @ashleyhistory12]

#auburnworldhistory the article says "Neoliberalism is a widely used term today"..... but up until now, I've never heard of it.

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

One of the biggest quotes that stuck with me was that neoliberalism was a "counterrevolutionary project."#auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

There is a constant repetition of neoliberalism being a political project that "curbs the power of labor," in what ways would the power of labor be curbed? #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

I'm surprised that I've never heard of the term neoliberalism until this article. In the simplest terms, I feel that neoliberalism is a concept based on ideas to reach a goal of free market. #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

I agree, this video was a new and interesting way to introduce us to the feelings and reasonings behind some actions taken during this time period.

[alexis @alexisauhistory]

The facts from this video are some you wont be able to find in a History book, this video really opened my eyes to a lot of this I have not heard about before. #AuburnWorldHistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

One of the quotes that stuck with me in this film was how the president was thrown shade for caring more about his image in the history books than the American people. #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

"A profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I was able to interpret these feelings correctly, a loss of essence." #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

This film illustrates how humans lose control of powerful things we create which when combined with high tensions and pride, leads to chaos and backfire. #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

I agree she also practiced what she preached and showed people that it payed off which inspired them more.

[Isabelle Genin @isabelle_genin]

I really liked the message that Baker is sending, she preaches peace but makes it known that social change is a necessity and outlines how people can do that. #AuburnWorldHistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

Josephine Baker paved the hard rocky roads to make it easier for other people who were discriminated and she truly made a difference. I wish I had learned about her long before now. #auburnworldhistory

[auburn_student0325 @student0325]

What person today is similar to Josephine Baker in the sense of trying to modernize the world? #auburnworldhistory
