@HenryLouisGates as you note, much of Africa’s precolonial history was buried by those same colonial forces.
but even your tremendous effort remains similarly buried - the series is not available even on PBS’s paid platform, much less one available to most educators

@HenryLouisGates Over the last week I have tried posting clips from the series to YouTube for all, but keep getting smacked with a copyright restriction that doesn’t allow for even non-$ use
is there anything you can do to make this series more widely available for students?

@HenryLouisGates hi Dr. Gates, I’m a middle school history teacher and I have found Africa’s Great Civilizations to be a fantastic resource

For everything that drives me crazy about my stupid, crappy soccer team, I still watch because that stupid, crappy soccer team is the only thing that can make me feel like this.

@davejsports Hey Dave! Embarrassing question but here goes: What cologne do you wear?
I was working for the Spirit back in like 2013, you came into our office before a DCU open cup game and I shook your hand and was just struck by “oh my god this guy smells like a million bucks”

When I was younger I bought into the fantasy that 60-80 hour work weeks show dedication and character. They don’t. They lead to broken families, substance abuse, and auto accidents at 3am.
