"Backstory with the American History Guys" examines D.W. Griffith's 1915 film "The Birth of a Nation" LIVE on Sunday, November 22 at 5pm ET. For More Information: www.c-span.org/...
For all those asking about the music just remember this was a silent film so the music was made in our time not in that time. When this film was played in theaters it was played with a piano accompaniment by a Pianist in the theater. It wasn't until years later that silent movies began to have a recorded orchestral soundtrack added on to them mostly thankful to Ted Turner for this.
I'm afraid you're incorrect. This film had a full score written by Joseph Carl Breil, one of the earliest examples of a full orchestral score for a film.
That wasn’t a remake. They just used the title. The silent film was first released as the Clansman. Due to the controversy when it was released the director changed the name. The one about Nat Turner (although he was a fascinating historical figure) was mostly fiction.
These are A.I. bots, or trolls. Just want to trigger black folks in their wounds. But what needs to land, is Amerikkka has HELL to pay. And he's here to collect, so...everybody pays
@@Rilumai HA HAH HAH, bro literally, I saw someone's comment saying "these people need to shut up, it's just a film" like, oh wow very incredible calling it just a film, totally just gonna ignore all the bad things it caused?
A powerful argument for free speech. The nature and depth of the prejudice cannot be denied. I have not watched the full film, and probably never will, but knowing that it cannot be hidden away as a shameful secret is of great comfort to me. We must never lie about history.
@@klolwtf6973 I'd say that today it's even more exaggerated. If you brought back some racist, southern yokel from 1890, and showed them the country we live in today, they'd say "God...I thought it'd be bad, but not THIS BAD."
My friend the white women got put on blast, the legislation passed for interracial marriage with white women sounds good to me. They knew what time it was is skedaddle their asses out of there p look how the brothers are celebrating they made it a national holiday both been an alternate timeline because I don't remember it happening in my timeline.
@@mouloudo actually it is. A stereo type is a trope used as shorthand. A generic CEO or a generic secretary. This is a negative racisl stereotype, meaning it classrs people in a derogatory fashion by race. Of course there this stereotype is not true.
@@carloscjr23 actually I was watching a documentary or video essay of some sort regarding the Civil Rights Movement and racism in general in the US, and they mentioned this video. I hadn't heard of it, so I looked it up. If you couldn't tell, I was pretty appalled by what people responded with
I can not believe it is happening now. Just look at John Fetterman in the halls of Congress dressed like a slob, Jamaal Bowman drunkenly pulling fire alarms, crack cocaine being found, and men proudly running around in panties, and womanface is analogous to white men in blackface. This resembles the present state of the Democratic Party.
Thank the Lord that things have changed since then. Although, it seems many misguided ignorant ppl want society to go back to looking like this, it is often not only acceptable, but in chic to discriminate and Hate on White men. And many criminals of certain demographics are deemed as heros,. Crazy
Well at a recent legislative session in Italy, two white male legislators were so horny for each other they left the session and went in the bathroom to go and have sex.
johnny garty if I were a black guy suffering the apartheid, you wouldn't exist anymore by now bud. You are lucky they, just like in the US, just moved on
Some of these people commenting, are racists and xenophobes. Most of them have contributed nothing to human culture or civilization, but gloat over the accomplishments of individual men, as if they were their own. You are not a genius by proxy because you are white. You’re probably an uneducated hick with a high school diploma.
@@stephenbismark9230 Yep, and if those big-brainz think that history will """"""progress"""""" in a more conservative, reactionary, right-wing, intolerant, socially/culturally/racially homogenous direction, they're beyond deluded.
James S. Pike, a Northern journalist who had once been a fervent abolitionist, wrote an unforgettable account of South Carolina under Black rule. Pike was sickened by the sight of the Black delegates who crammed the floor of the South Carolina House. “At some of the desks,” he commented, “sit colored men whose types it would be hard to find outside of the Congo.” The distinguished legislators lounged or slept in their chairs, often surrounded by a litter of peanut shells and an empty whisky bottle or two. The more conscientious members ensconced themselves behind open newspapers, often held upside down (few of the Black solons could read or write).
@@4eightyvolt That's not true. Stop lying. People who were Republicans in 1915 were still Republicans in 1960. The Republican Party has always had a platform based on individualism, less government, gun rights, personal freedom etc.
@@JayLee-kw1qv The answer is a little more complicated. But suffice it to say, The two parties we know today looked a lot different a century and a half ago. Yes, the southern white supremacists used to be Democrats post Civil war. But things change over the course of a century. The shit hit the fan for the southern white racists after Lyndon B Johnson became President and transformed the Democratic party to the party of civil rrights. Along with Nixon's Southern Strategy, the Southern White Racists left the Dems forever and joined the Republican party. So to answer your question. It might've been true if you lived 100 years ago, but it's fucking ridiculous to imply its a reflection of the Democratic party today. His post was deliberately ambiguous by leaving out context.
Amazing film from truly amazing book by Thomas Dixon Jr. (The Clansman) of 1905 and film released in 1915 (Birth of a Nation) by D. W. Griffith. In February 1915, upon viewing The Birth of a Nation at a special White House screening, President Woodrow Wilson reportedly remarked, "It's like writing history with lightning. My only regret is that it is all so terribly true."
@@scottfay3553 another moron who refuses to understand Americas history with its political parties. Wilson was a Southern Dixiecrat and he would be a Republican today. Another other assertion is completely convoluted and revisionist.
@@logang1585 If you are interested, i would recommend audiobook online of "John R Lynch" book published in 1913 on The Facts of Reconstruction. Interms of alternative historical view over the ones that came from Democrat South back then.
Because they knew that it would take 120 years for the debt ceiling to collapse from 1913 by dividing the dollar in half every 20 years. Once you know how currency is created, you become prescient.
I mean North won. So they felt vunerable, interms of Southeners feeling like the North would exploit the South in someway. No idea if purpose of KKK was to protect south from north, or if it was rooted in racism. But whatever good it was, it got ruined by the 20th century version of it
@@squash8226 What i find interesting is civil war in USA seemed to be where the culture of economic racism originated from. Just a shame i cant know more about the origins. But its sad how this is still affecting USA in lots of ways
This was the worldview of the people who actually lived through this history. You might think twice about that. It may be the people at the time understood the truth better than you do 100 years later after lots of propaganda.
I don't see this scene as a racist thing but I see this as making parliament tolerable. Let's just make this a norm. I hate the "privilaged" people deciding what's good for us in their parliament being super bored. We got one life, let's enjoy it rather than being a huge borefest.

@@sophiaperennis2360 Care to explain ? If what you means is that a movie should just stay an artistic creation and not become political, well I'd like to agree but history has proven otherwise ; as far as I know, "The Birth of a Nation" has more or less been responsible for the rebirth of the KKK, which is a clear demonstration that a movie can have political consequences, huge ones.
@@sophiaperennis2360 This was only the most racist film in the nation.. endorsed by the staunch racist, white supremacist (not using this in vernacular terms) Wilson to justify KKK riots and heighten jim crow segregation.

Just look at John Fetterman in the halls of Congress dressed like a slob, Jamaal Bowman drunkenly pulling fire alarms, crack cocaine being found, and men proudly running around in panties, and womanface is analogous to white men in blackface.
This resembles the present state of the Democratic Party.
I think you missed the irony.
both parties not one. their all republicans minus from the progressives here and there.
@@angelmendez2211 No, it is the Democrats. They are trying to get people to believe that men can be women and have babies. ABSURD! Look at the state of Democrat cities, my neighbourhood in Brooklyn now stinks of piss and people are being murdered. They have made drugs legal, and illegals are ringing people's doorbell begging for money and digging through the trash.
Had to add that last bit to let everyone know you're not racist.... while agreeing with a racist film at the same time.
@@anthony_depaz I'm black, and just because I am, does not mean that I subscribe to reprehensible behaviour by any one, of any race. Where in my comment did I agree with a racist film, simply because I drew parallels?
“This movie is horrible”

Sounds like a good person
@@norbertoramirez8859 Sounds like someone who doesn't understand movies.
@@sophiaperennis2360 Care to explain ? If what you means is that a movie should just stay an artistic creation and not become political, well I'd like to agree but history has proven otherwise ; as far as I know, "The Birth of a Nation" has more or less been responsible for the rebirth of the KKK, which is a clear demonstration that a movie can have political consequences, huge ones.
@@sophiaperennis2360 Explain the movie
@@sophiaperennis2360 This was only the most racist film in the nation.. endorsed by the staunch racist, white supremacist (not using this in vernacular terms) Wilson to justify KKK riots and heighten jim crow segregation.
They warned us a long time ago but we never listened…
What do you mean by that
"Officer, he's right there!"
Watch south african parliment. Its just like this lol
Filme patético mostrando estereótipos RACISTAS. Triste.
I don't know this language.
@@lavriccat2011 That happens a lot, even with the most widely spoken languages in the world like English, Spanish or Portuguese, there will always be someone, somewhere who doesn't speak it.
Фильм чистая правда
i love how this was racist even for 1915 😂😂
The truth is racist.
@@markcicero7931 wdym?
No It wa not racist in 1915 and truly it's not now - just the obvious truth
@@5888max It was like writing history with lightening. What this nation needs is a rebirth. We got BLM and Antifa running wild in the streets.
@@juliahornback2843 I think my comment speaks for itself. Birth of a Nation was like writing history with lightening. It was only too true.
The birth of white nationalism.
"The helpless white minority" Lol. Great movie still
That’s happening now
@@georgejackson2631 no
Who cares about ethno nonsense in this day and age. You should be more worried about Trans community using artificial life as gateway to AI robots. If you ever read "I have no mouth and i must scream" sci fi story, you will realise that its as dangerous as nukes

@@wesdemers258You can’t refute it. It’s statistically proven according to current trends and will happen within our lifetimes. Already under 18 they’re a minority.

How PATHETIC, you KKK garbage
Disgusting..truly pathetic, and evil...sending undying love to All my African Americans from Egypt..love ya'll..thank you for everything you have given the World.

Wouldn’t this just be amazing?
This is actually pretty convincing black face.
This feels a bit racist.
Anything backed by C Span is something done with Taste and Integrity. C Span is the way to go!
Justin Trudeau's favorite movie!
Wow, the more things change, the more they stay the same.... lmRao
anyone got examples of blackface/racist stereotypes in comedy/-movies?
Jimmy Kimmel did it.
Yup. Jimmy Kimmel made black people sound unintelligible & dumb but it's ok because he's a Democrat now & visited Epsteins island!
