Ok I should be interested in the very important subject of the video but I’m more curious how you got Jonathan Frakes to do readings for this?! 😮

As a woman who suffered greatly, for decades, at the hands of a nazi father; and then AGAIN, under the thumb of a deeply duplicitous and misogynist husband, this form of speech that you talk about sounds EXTREMELY familiar. 😒 ..sounds pretty similar to particular fascist factions around the 'ol world right NOW, too.

The voice of Thomas Jefferson is absolutely Commander Riker, right?

One of my best friends is half indigenous and some of the members of their family have been helping them preserve their tribe's language and practices and being able to see little snippets into their culture without worrying if its been whitewashed before i learn it has been so awesome. Seeing the cultures endure and find ways to grow in the modern day is so inspiring. Fuck Jefferson.

I would LOVE to see a collaboration with you and Atun-Shei Films here on YouTube.

It would have been nice to see comparisons with the British Canadians in doing the same thing in Canada, but I see the point of your video.

Thomas Jefferson sounds a lot like William Riker, just saying. Which may explain some of the misogyny.

His full name was actually Thomas "Bad Boy" Jefferson

Not relevant to that video, but does anyone know where she got that shirt at the beginning of the video? I really like the design.

the more he says "my children" the i feel physicly repulsed, this sounds like something out of the narcisistic abusers playbook

Was Thomas Jefferson a good man?
He kept his own children in slavery
