James Gregory "Homes for Some: Seattle's History of Housing and Racial Exclusion"
Seattle has a long history of policies and practices that prevented people of certain racial and religious backgrounds from buying, renting, or occupying homes in many parts of the city and surrounding areas. Starting with the 1865 ordinance that banned Indigenous people, Prof. James Gregory details this history of exclusion by showing how it was implemented through laws, zoning, deed restrictions, redlining, urban renewal, and other governmental actions and through the organized efforts of real estate professionals, banks, and neighborhood associations. This talk also assesses the way this history shapes the present, highlighting continuing patterns of housing exclusion and ongoing efforts to open opportunities, including discussion of the 2023 state law (Covenant Homeownership Account Act - HB 1474) that provides compensation to victims of racial restrictive covenants and other forms of state sanctioned housing discrimination.

From the Central District to Pike Place Market and beyond, migrants from the Mediterranean region have made a notable, if seldom noticed, impact on Seattle's urban fabric over the past century, perhaps no group more than Sephardic Jews from the Ottoman Empire.

HLS 2023: Medieval Made Modern "Interpreting Joan"
มุมมอง 394ปีที่แล้ว
Joan of Arc is one of the most fascinating figures of the Middle Ages and one of the most baffling as well. Regarded by her supporters as a saint and visionary, she was burned by the Catholic Church in 1431 as an apostate who rejected God’s natural order by dressing as a man. That same church canonized her in 1920 after a sustained campaign by an extremist right-wing political movement in Franc...

Perhaps no group has traveled further in the popular imagination than the Templars. Once an international military and banking order associated with the Crusades, they appear now most commonly as the progenitors of the Freemasons, members of a secretive Order guarding the Holy Grail, and the stars of numerous video games. How and why did this happen?

    The Romanians were allies of Nazi-Germany and participated in the Ost-krieg. It stands to reason that Romania too has it's own wicked deeds in the Holocaust vs Jews, Roma, & the Sinti, as well as atrocities committed in their eastwards advance into Ukraine & Russia. Likewise, Nazi-Germany's other allies (The Vichy-French, the Hungarians, the Croatians, and Bulgarians) were also participant-players in the Holocaust in it's entirety (around 11+million people killed). Nazi-Germany did not do it all by themselves. The look into Romania's part of this evil work of genocide and ethnic cleansing needs more looking into. Thanks for the video, Woody!

    The origins of antisemitism go all the way back to the Old Testament. It started with the story of Abraham and Sarah lying to Pharaoh about Sarah’s status as an ‘unmarried woman’ in order to be 'treated well' and gain access to the highest levels of power in Egypt. Pharaoh and his harem come down with a "mysterious illness" (venerial disease) and Pharaoh confront Abraham about his trickery and kicks Abraham and his followers out of Egypt. So there you have, Pharaoh kicking Abraham out of Egypt was the first act of antisemitism.

    I am amazed that nobody commented about this excellent presentation of Holocaust history in Romania and Hungary !? I am a Romanian Jewish survivor of the pogrom in Bucharest when Iron Guards thugs entered our house and tried to kill me, my sister and my mother!! My grandparents were taken from their house in Bistrita, Nasaud , Transylvania by Hungarian Jandarms of the Horty,s regime and deported to Auschwitz’s camp and burned in crematorium!!! Never forget or forgive!!

      It's not really a part of the Romanian history that gets promoted , more like swept under the rug. I don't know exactly how history is presented in schools now, but in the 90s I don't remember it being mentioned.On the other hand there are a tiny minority of Iron Guard wannabe idiots under various names .It's the kind of people that have the same passion for some soccer team and Orthodox Church protests against LGBT or something.

When I was younger I never really understood the details of how the holocaust happened, in school I wondered 'why did they wait til 42 to gas the polish Jews when they defeated Poland in 39' and my teacher couldn't really answer. I used to be an 'intentionalist' thinking Hitler planned to murder them all along but now I see it was not quite that simple

    Growing up in the '80s and not having yet experienced an active protest movement such as that which we are currently in, the fact that the images from the Civil Rights Era were in black & white separated me as a viewer from the turmoil in a way that photographs of 9/11 or the Ferguson protests can't. The modern analog of that would be the color degradation.
