Map Background: Where The US Hides Its Secrets
🕑 Added 2020-11-27 20:34:42 +0000 UTCHey all! I hope you have all gotten the chance to watch this recent video about Liberia, the US, and the international economy. These are the videos I want to make more of, and this map was absolutely essential in telling that story visually. I tweaked the map for you all, however. Did you see the Liberia video? What did you think?

Loved seeing you tackle issues like this! Reminded me somewhat of John Oliver or FriendlyJordies, entertaining and original journalism with incredible production. Even though I originally subbed for the travel and borders style content, while the US is locked down I think shifting to content like this is a great alternative.
Hi! New subscriber here. I was telling my wife about what I learned in this video about the founding of Liberia. Then she told me that she learned about it from her professor who's black, and that he framed the country's formation as a way for former slaves to escape the hell hole that was (is?) America for them. So interesting to think about the different sides of that.
