Thank you!

Most welcome!

Thank you!

This is incorrect and libel. (1) The Declaration is classed per US law as part of the organic laws (read: more fundamental even than the Construction writ) of the United States, though this is largely ignored (like the Constitution) by all branches (which is typically how governance goes everywhere, not just here). (2) The whole "3/5ths" compromise is original to the Constitution and, contrary to historical illiterates, not about denying peoplehood to Africans, but was to reduce the power through counts in census of shave States. It was obvious from the start that they wanted slavery gone, but a few powers that were stood in the way and could not be dispensed.

Interesting, albeit passionate, discussion.

You are welcome.

Glad you enjoyed it

Interesting and most likely yes.

Interesting. I wonder as well.

My pleasure!

Oblivious or obvious? Beyond that, thanks.

Thanks!

Diamonds are tough and show their points and clarity when cut with skill.

As discussed in the video

Great!

Series is numbered

It's an amazing history.

Yes, fascinating!

Interesting

Complicated.

Well, Jefferson himself owned slaves end even sired children with one. So...

@@zdzislawmeglicki2262 showing you are unaware of historical context: At that time, reaching an age of majority sans the economic skills to support oneself led to criminal prosecution of your parents, removal from their custody, placement under a master as an apprentice so that you could learn some (how many youth arrived in North America btw), and orders of court to parents to repay the costs of moving, housing, feeding, clothing, and training you. If you were put out without the social and economic skills to survive, you died. Part of what made slavery abysmal is that imported Africans would lack the language, cultural skills, and hard skills (beyond drudgery and menial labor, for the most part) so that a full emancipation meant mass death: Jefferson, George, etc all discussed and wrote about these things and how they had as a project the training and equipping of slaves so that when they died, their slaves could be freed (for the most part, if ready) and not die. For comparison, emancipation after the civil war largely led to former slaves.... still stuck working on plantations of former masters due to need and inability to survive elsewhere--exceptions where rare (exceptional!), all long before the Southern Society laws where passed to keep rising African Americans subjugated. It's a bit like prior today going to poor African villages to "help" build things (in missing etc) where the results (if you talk to the Address privately) are often worse than worthless--Moderns lack the appropriate skills and lacking a place to retreat to would die in that society/neighborhood even without suffering any crime or violence. Jefferson had eugenic (classic rather than Nazi or "20th Century American Progressive") ideas he likely picked up from ancient Greek and Roman authors, and his genes being of course among the "eu" kind, wanted to have children and "help" those he was (literally by training) helping towards a day they could go free.

Always helpful to have corrections in the comments.

I think you have a lot to learn...

@@junaid1 educate me and show me I’m wrong instead of being patronising. Prove to me that Jewish people have always been maltreated then I’ll answer.

@@aristotleonassis5792 When there are laws of restrictions, no matter how wealthy you are, you are not equal. The video is explaining those restrictions. If for example you pursued a Doctorate but could not choose where and how you would apply it. There were 3 classes. Royalty to lower level of Duke. Nobility; merchant class, banking; etc. Military. Then on down to commoners. Jews could be Nobility never Royalty per societal "pecking order." Religious reasons. At one time they could not join the army of the nation they lived in much less be promoted to a General. Dr. Abramson I'm sure has archived lectures.

@@aristotleonassis5792 The reason a minority of them were ALLOWED into the class of Nobility is because they had great acumen of money exchange. They learned it to survive. They lent with interest to the consternation of the Church who also barred them from Guilds and ... if you want to be educated you can be.

@@aristotleonassis5792 They were christ killers who ritually sacrificed christian children on passover don't you know.
