Ep #3: The Rosewood Massacre | Dark History Podcast

We stan a queen not afraid to talk about & respect black history.

Bailey can you do a podcast about the boarding schools and all the Native American children they are finding in graves. People need to learn the truth about these boarding schools.

I just saw this today and thought you'd appreciate it for this channel: "Studying history will sometimes disturb you. Studying history will sometimes upset you. Studying history will sometimes make you furious. If studying history always makes you feel proud and happy, you probably aren't studying history."

Shout out to Bailey for acknowledging each victim by their name and not just by a number

Why doesn't this woman have a tv series yet? This episode was not only funny, interesting, dark, AND educational but also just had a great well articulated message about keeping history honest. I love it so much

As a black male that doesn’t give AF about make up, my GF just got me hooked on your videos and I don’t think you know how necessary you are. I never miss one 👌🏾

The fact that this all happened because a woman couldn't be faithful to her husband is disgusting

I grew up like an hour from Rosewood and we never learned about this. Which isn’t surprising given its Florida but every time I learn about something in history, that has been basically erased, I get so mad. Thank you for educating me so that I may better educate my son.

All this over a woman refusing to admit she was having an affair. Sickening.

netflix needs to give her a show

Bailey is the school teacher we all needed and never knew it.

I recently learned about thriving black communities that were flooded to make lakes. My ancestors will not be forgotten, even if they keep trying to erase us.

As a black Florida native I learned the history of Rosewood when I was a little kid. That’s why Karens were so dangerous and still are. Thank you for telling this part of our history💛

So glad Bailey is stretching her wings and providing educational material to her audience beyond the true crime genre.

Update - The family that bought last surviving home in Rosewood that survived the massacre, John Wright's house, was donated to the community by the family that purchased it. It will become a museum.

I'm literally crying. These are such awful and sad events. All for prevention of embarrassment of an infidelity.

The saddest part about this is there are so many towns where black people were thriving that have now been as I call hidden/erased from history. I am so glad there are so many people like Bailey doing research and educating us on all the parts of history that America tries so desperately to keep us from talking about. We need to understand the past so we can make sure we never allow this stuff to happen again. Education is power and that’s the one thing NO ONE can take away from you. Keep educating yourselves everyone and don’t ever stop questioning and taking it upon yourself to look things up.

Rest in peace to all the victims who lost their lives during this massacre. Their lives were lost because a white woman didn't want to admit she was having an affair. Disgusting

I have to say this, however it might offend people. The continuation of the horrible Fannie legacy is happening and worsening because the Rosewood massacre was erased from public records. It is foolish to believe that just pretending these events never took place is the best way to treat with the trauma of what happened. Thank you Bailey for discussing these hideous apocalyptic event, and perhaps making sure people never forget so that this legacy might be ended completely.

As someone born, raised, and educated in Florida from pre-school to grad school it’s ridiculous that this massacre was never taught to me in school.
