    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 👌🏾
  • @carrieheron9816
    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."
  • @mangoberry2534
    Shout out to Bailey for acknowledging each victim by their name and not just by a number
  • @thehomebird999
    All this over a woman refusing to admit she was having an affair. Sickening.
  • @Kaykokovids
    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 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.
  • @ionabyrne7051
    The fact that this all happened because a woman couldn't be faithful to her husband is disgusting
  • @LoveHal0
    We stan a queen not afraid to talk about & respect black history.
  • @ElveeKaye
    Bailey is the school teacher we all needed and never knew it.
  • @ninimoon333
    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.
  • @moonka15
    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.
  • Can you do a “dark history” surrounding “residential schools/industrial schools/American Indian schools” in Canada they are now digging up around old schools and finding hundreds of unmarked graves of children as young as 3-4. This was overlooked for decades! Something to research !
  • @sp4c3r4bb1t
    I'm literally crying. These are such awful and sad events. All for prevention of embarrassment of an infidelity.
  • @LAVirgo67
    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.
  • @newtle1230
    I was literally like, “hasn’t she told this story before?” Because I’ve watched the Tulsa Race Massacre video. I find it so disturbing that it’s a completely different story but so similar and nothing was done about either times, plus it is hidden from the world practically. I’d never heard of them until Bailey. Disgusting. Thank you for videos like these though. It’s so important.
  • @curlytop904
    I am Descendant of some of the rosewood survivors (beulah carrier-Sherman aka scrappy in the movie was my great great great grandma.) Thanks Bailey for shedding light on this. Not a lot of people know about it
  • @JustMeKayC
    Hi Bailey! I'm hoping you see this but knowing that you have covered the Tulsa Race Massacre before, I was wondering if you would be interested in learning or covering the Wilmington Race Riot(Massacre) that happened in Wilmington NC back in 1989. It is something that has been really buried here in NC.. I was raised here and I just learned about it last week on a trip to the Poplar Grove plantation (which was known for being a Union loyal plantation until they were forced to succeed with the rest of the state.) The woman who led our tour had me in tears by the end and really expressed the true history of what went on at the plantation... it was an amazing experience. I would love for the sake of change and uncovering the history North Carolina is trying to bury.
  • @usontheat6095
    Born and raised in SE FL and never heard of this. So much wrong with our education system.
