Hello, and welcome back to another GCSE revision video. Now guys, within this fairly brief lesson, I want to show you the three clever points that you can use in any Macbeth essay and how you can relate them to the three main characters. Okay, so this is Macbeth's character, Lady Macbeth's character, and the witches. And most importantly, how you can cleverly tie them all back to the main context point. Okay, so of course there's lots of context points that you can remember from Macbeth, but the main one, okay? This is what the whole plays hinged on is the violation of divine right of kings, okay? So based off of this one context point, this is the three points that you can use to relate to these three main characters. And on top of that, I'll also show you guys how these points are really, really flexible and versatile when you're thinking about all the main themes in the play. And even, for example, other questions that you can perhaps anticipate coming up, be it character questions, be it theme questions, okay? So guys, based on divine right of kings, which is a central context point in the play, right? This idea that, you know, all of this chaos in Scotland ensued from Macbeth's really terrible action of Regicide. And of course, Shakespeare is warning his audience against following any type of ambition to violate, you know, the king's power or subvert the king's power. Let me show you guys how you can use this one context point to relate it to the three main characters. And the points that you can consider when you're writing about Macbeth and these characters in any essay, okay? Now guys, firstly, let's quickly go over the meaning of divine right of kings because you have to be absolutely crystal clear on this idea, this really central belief that a lot of Jacobians at the time, during Shakespeare's time, believed in, okay? Now, let's begin by talking about and, you know, recapping on what divine right of kings really means, okay? Remember that this idea of divine right of kings was based off the idea that every Jacobian believed at the time that everybody has a rank in nature, okay? So in society, especially in Jacobian society, there was a hierarchical structure and Jacobians believed that wherever you belonged within that hierarchy, you lived within that position and you died in that position, i.e. if you're born a peasant, you should be happy to live as a peasant and die as a peasant because that was your position. That was the, you know, that's what fate had deemed was good for you, right?  And I've even drawn this little pyramid here to show you guys this great chain of being, this natural order, but not only does this great chain of being, was it relevant to people's position in the social hierarchy, right? So you've got God at the top, he chooses the king, followed by the noblemen, then the merchants, then peasants, and then animals, and then right at the bottom of this social hierarchy, you've got the devil, right? Not only does this relate to people's social hierarchy, it also stretched to gender, okay? So remember that also part of the belief of the great chain of being is this notion that men will always form more dominant and above women, okay? So that's the first idea of divine right of kings is hinged on this belief that God, right at the top of this natural hierarchy in the great chain of being, chose the king directly. And hence, the king being chosen by God could never be subverted. In other words, what I mean by that is he could never be challenged. He could never be disobeyed because if he disobeyed the king, you're disobeying God's representative directly and hence you are indirectly disobeying God. If you were still think about committing treason or killing the king, that also would mean that you were killing God's representative. So of course that can never be done. Hence, final step in understanding divine right of kings, the act of killing the king, the act of regicide. Not only was it treasonous, but it went against the great chain of being because of course it disrupts this natural hierarchy. And most importantly, it defied God and went against nature, right? Because God was really, it made God really angry, okay? So that's the central context point to be really, really clear on divine right of kings. If you literally remember divine right of kings, not only is it an important and amazing context point that you can literally use for any question, but now what I want to show you guys is how based off of this one context point, you can make these three points to do with the main characters in the play. As I said, Lady Macbeth, Macbeth and the witches. Now of course, when we think about the great chain of being, Lady Macbeth actually subverts her rank as a woman within this great chain of being because in act one, scene seven, she questions Macbeth's masculinity, okay? She tells him, when you dust do it, then you are a man.  Lady Macbeth uses his masculinity against him and there's this power dynamic in the relationship whereby Lady Macbeth subverts her role, right? She goes, she rises in this relationship and she's the one that does the leading, right? And of course, Jacobians would have seen this with horror that would have said, oh my God, women are not supposed to lead men. And hence, they then therefore called her the fourth witch because she was going against her nature, okay? That's the first point to make when you're thinking about, especially Lady Macbeth's character, but also when you're equally thinking about the themes of ambition, right? Her subverting going above her position as a woman in their marriage, of course illustrates this ambition that she had for power. Equally, of course, as I said, this led a lot of people to see her as the fourth witch. Therefore, there's also really, really powerful references that you can make to the supernatural theme, okay? However, the second clever point that you can make based off of this one central context point of Divine Right is, of course, to do with Macbeth and his out of registered in that two scene one, okay? So in that two scene one, this is where he sees this bloody dagger. Is this a dagger which I'll see before me? The handle toward my hand, right?  Remember that by end of act two, scene one, he kills King Duncan offstage, okay? Now, this is really, really important because firstly, what this illustrates is Macbeth has now become a fallen hero, okay? He has given into his hamsha, which means his fatal flaw of ambition and committed the act of regicide and thus disrupted the social order, disrupted the natural hierarchy and shock horror rose above his position from being a feign and a knight to now trying to make himself king. However, the third point, of course, the people that, or rather the characters that spark this seed of ambition within Macbeth are the witches. So of course, the third point that you can make in any essay is to do with the witches and how they spark Macbeth to disrupt the divine right of kings. Now remember, contextually speaking, Jacobians believed that witches were women who made a pact with the devil to get some form of power in exchange for working closely with the devil, okay? Even King James himself was very superstitious, wrote a whole book called Demonology about this, right? And thus, when you're thinking about the idea of divine right of kings, you want to obviously think about the witches as key figures, key characters. They are agents of chaos. They're the ones who deliberately plant these seeds of ambition in Macbeth's mind and cause him to commit regicide or rather they influence him to commit regicide through speaking in half trutes. And what you can relate this to is, of course, in Act One, scene three, where they hail Macbeth, you know, they say, all hail Macbeth, Thane of Cordo, hail Macbeth, or rather, hail Macbeth, Thane of Glombs, hail Macbeth, Thane of Cordo and hail Macbeth, King hereafter. But equally, because they spark this ambition and they cause all of this chaos, Ross and the old man, when they are speaking in Act Two, scene four, they say that King Duncan's horses, which are very well trained, they start, they turned against each other, right? He, Ross also describes how an owl kills a hawk, right? Everything in nature becomes topsy-turvy because Divine Rite of Kings has been destroyed, okay? So when it comes to Macbeth, in all honesty, if you just made it a point of just remembering Divine Rite of Kings as your main context point, right? A03, from that one context point, you can make these three points. But equally, let's say you get a question on ambition. You can literally tie these three points to do with ambition. If you get a question that's supernatural, equally, you can tie these three points, okay? These are really great versatile points that you can use for any Macbeth essay. Thanks so much for listening and I hope this helped.


No, I'm just kidding. It's good to be here Gosh, I guess I was here about six years ago. I went to the Divinity School And I don't know that I've been back maybe once Since then and I was talking to Nico earlier You know, you'll have to forgive me. I'm still in recovery mode after the campaign I've actually haven't really taken a break yet. I've been in Chicago working on our post-election Task Force wrap up making sure we keep all the data and do a bunch of analysis of what has happened on the campaign So I haven't taken a break yet. I have not gone to the beach yet So if I just start mumbling incoherently, please forgive me. It's been a long Long two years. I want to start with them. It's Colin right not it's Colin, right? I love what he said about the jazz and and the classical music Because that's a lot what I want to talk about sort of building on what Marshall said is this sort of independent interdependence between the technology The new media and the field organizing that's been going on and I believe that you know where we are today when we When we get into campaigns or we get into social movements or or advocacy organizing that doesn't have that interdependence We leave a lot on the table on both sides and it's this balance that I think we began to take from infancy to adolescence You know from the 04 cycle to this cycle, but have not even come close To the power that we have to connect The technology with the real organizing and some of the conditions that Marshall talked about I also just want to say and then I'm going to tell some stories. I also Just want to say that the Technology in my mind and this also hopefully will provoke some some thought is in many ways The net or as Marshall talks about the hammer But not necessarily the engine and that when we go in and set up a strategy or come up with How we're going to run a campaign and how we're going to get the votes We need when we take the technology and try to fit the strategy into that technology I think we've also done a disservice to the work that we're trying to do when we've come up with a Strategy and a program and then said what resources do we have? And in order to do this and thought about that as we're coming up with a strategy I think we've been more successful. So I'm going to talk a little bit about that in four parts Four different states that I was in in the campaign and some of the technology that I believe helped us Get the votes that we needed to and that then show the interdependence between the two and also talks about that last point about really having The strategy first and then figuring out what technology we had to make it even better So about about two years ago a little under two years ago. It's April 11th 2007 and I find myself the first day I find myself in South Carolina In a state that you know may not be the most tech savvy state in the nation May not have as many internet users as California Per capita And I find myself there on the 11th and there's an event with Obama on the 13th two days from then and the night before we're putting Together we're putting together the tickets that we're gonna use for people to get into the event And you know we put on there the line about you know We want your email address and we're gonna try to capture that from people that come there but as we started look we were in Florence, South Carolina, which is even Maybe less connected to the online world than other parts of South Carolina. It's it's area called the PD Somebody had the great idea of saying well, you know Not as many people have the internet out there But you should we should definitely add a line for their cell phones and put a little box It says you know that they'd be willing to get text from the campaign. It's something they've started in Chicago We should really start to do this So we put it on there and a lot of people put their information on there and tell us that they want to get text from the campaign and we continue to do this through throughout the campaign in South Carolina as Very simple very small thing You know that we have the Oprah rally in December 30,000 people come I stand up on stage terrified in front of all these folks and asked them, you know to text in You know their information and we start building a mechanism to communicate with People throughout the state that was an alternative to just sort of the main technology that a lot of people think of I think it's it was sort of under Reported and under talked about but we had the ability through this technology We were building as Marshall talked about this team structure Throughout the state where people were really taking ownership over what they were doing But we had the ability to to text out those team members information About the campaign that we wouldn't text out to other folks and the ability to get volunteers With what I'm very interested is how to use this technology to move people So as volunteers are out canvassing on a Saturday if you get we would get them all the text in and we would get them to Text back in pictures and send those back out to folks As a way to move them as a way to motivate them as a way to connect them to what was happening throughout the state Very small story, but I'm gonna just you know use that and then the second thing from South Carolina And I'll come back to serve how all these stories tie together is that early on we started a house meeting program that was really sort of the foundation of building the leaders that we needed that we thought we needed in order to win and Sam Graham Felsen and some of the folks from Chicago came down and shot video about the Strategy and we had been talking about it and we had been you know I put it on paper and everybody signed up on the field plan, but no one really knew what we were doing In reality, right? I mean people kind of knew there was a little bit different and and as Steve feel the brand We'll tell you he was a little bit concerned, but thought we'll worry about that later But it didn't sound like sort of the traditional Doors and phones program that that needed to be done in order to identify the voters we needed But they trusted us enough to do this But what the video did and I'll talk about this more when I get to the Ohio part of the story was really Tell the story it was it was the power of that video But more importantly than putting it online and putting it into context As a way that people would go sign up to do their own meeting which would give us leads for our organizers But more importantly as a way to tell the story to the rest of the campaign internally and to the larger Community about what we were doing that was different and had a profound impact, and I'm going to talk more about video In a second so fast forward We know we're fortunate enough to squeak by with a 29-point win down there all because of our text message program And Fast-forward to Marilyn That is definitely not on the record. I think I'm being videotaped so everything to say is on the record No, that is also a very that is also a joke But you know definitely helped it was though the the first you know the at 731 p.m All of those volunteers knew that we had won the election and how do they find out they found out through our text message program So at least we were able to communicate information to them Through that so the second fast-forward through to Maryland. I get to Maryland. There's 14 days to run an election There's an awesome group that had started there and this should not be Sort of minimize who had organized themselves using a lot of the tools that the folks in Chicago had built And Chris I see has come in around, you know my bulk communities and had organized themselves on the ground as well But we still get there and there's 14 days and we sort of have this ambitious goal of actually impacting the election in some way in 14 days So we set up 14 offices quickly throughout the state. We have about a dozen organizers And I get there on Tuesday and on Saturday. We really only have two weekends of GO TV canvassing. So we decide we're gonna See what happens. It seems to be a little bit more of a connected state So we set up all of these canvases across the state and we just shoot it out through the my bow groups and through emails and 1200 folks sign up to volunteer that Saturday in 24 hours in Montgomery County alone And so we that was the first time I realized that I'm in a different environment Then I had been in for the last nine months in terms of the the the power of the internet and the connection that people had was a lot more Real there, but also people had not been involved in Democratic Presidential politics it never mattered there before so people were were more excited But simply by sending that out and it's sort of a simple thing. We were able to sort of capture through the net The people that wanted to get involved bring them in and then get them into training Around their GO TV roles and build in 14 days an infrastructure that was able to on election day Talk to every single targeted voter go to their door three times And that was only possible through the connection of the training that happened once we brought people in and obviously the My bow groups and other things to get people there in the first place. All right, then then I travel two hours north and go from a 25 point victory to a 27 point deficit when we get there and I realized about you the world This country is very different when you travel Different places here. I end up in Pennsylvania And we have a little bit longer time eight weeks No one's paying attention because Ohio and Texas are going on and everybody thinks if we win one of those it doesn't matter So good luck. Here's 12 people. Here's a very large state.  Oh, and by the way, you're down 27 points no one in the political infrastructure is supporting you and Etc. Etc. But We're gonna build teams again. So we have eight weeks. We figure we have the ability to really build an infrastructure That that has the ability to to change, you know the the election. So This is sort of where technology I think is probably one of the best examples that I have We are we have no offices We're getting them set up and as you know if you've been out on the trail It takes a while to get telephones in these offices But there's some online tools that have been developed that enabled us to take this team structure that we had built and We called it the PA teams tool Which was an online calling tool that you could go into and say I live in this precinct and it would connect you with People in the group and give you whatever lists the organizer or we would decide we were going to be Targeting in that area it turns out that tool ended up becoming basically neighbor-to-neighbor and some of the other tools that That were used on the campaign in the general election But it was that it was the the classics and the jazz coming together It was this fantastic tool that allowed you to do tons of really interesting things about competing amongst yourselves about Seeing what was being done about hitting goals and seeing them there without having the infrastructure of an office But having the ability for an organizer to go in and see what was happening and make And and and sort of connect those folks together and make sure that there was organizing happening And it wasn't just like oh, you know go online and make five calls It was a real accountable Structure that people felt like they were a part of a community like they do In in the my bowl groups and other things and so that was I think one of the times where the classics and jazz came Together the best and then the last story I'll tell is Ohio where I was in the general Where we spent a lot of time in Chicago after the primary looking at what worked best And spent some time with the new media folks Talking about some of the the technology and neighbor neighbor and other things were born for the general election There were two things I think in Ohio that sort of them were the classics in the jazz coming together I Want one again was video? And we had we were lucky. We had two new media guys who are some of the best Guys have ever worked with who also happened to have one both of them a bunch of film awards for independent films A day in shot and we I didn't know either of them had won these awards I just knew that they were Good new media folks who I'd met along the way one had been a volunteer in California ended up as a volunteer in Pennsylvania And just did great work with what we had given him to do But we started they started we started to shoot all sorts of video And it goes back to what I said about what happened in South Carolina It was one of the most important things that we did in a weird way because It told the story about what we were doing. It brought people together We shoot video about our voter red strides. We would shoot video about, you know, some of our house meetings We shot a video called come to Ohio for people to come from out of state That was just very very powerful very moving And I think a lot of that what we were doing is just tell the story And we were doing it through video was very powerful But we always connected it to an action that someone could take so when the video was up there as you see on all these websites There was an action to be taken specific Action around what the what the story we were telling and that was I think like just a huge Example of the power of sort of this technology And getting people into action and getting them mobilized and then the last thing that was we we nationally set up a Very very smart website called vote build our vote for change calm Which allowed people to go in you know We want a big part of our strategy that we had developed was around voter registration And this site Allow people to go in and download voter edge forms And then you know turn them in and you know 700,000 plus folks across the country You know downloaded this form and what but what it allowed us to do is as every individual downloaded the form an organizer Would get that information and know that they had somebody to follow up with And we originally thought well, this is going to be a fantastic way to sort of start You know to get more People registered and follow up with them it ended up being one of the biggest generators of volunteers We had on the campaign because these were a lot of young people a lot of people that were really psyched they've sought it out themselves And we were able to capture the information follow up them quickly and get them engaged on the ground And you know that happens a ton when people just come up and sign up and other things But this was just a very specific thing They felt very much connected to the campaign because we were calling to make sure they did this and a lot of people Were like, you know what it's sitting on my counter right now I'm gonna go do it right now and you know what I'll just come down to the office And and get involved in the campaign so those are our four stories I think of you know very simple and we want to get into conversation Of how we use technology to motivate folks and to get them into action Which is something that I'm really interested in is is the merger between the two They were almost all designed with field people and new media folks sitting together Oftentimes in campaigns. There's this I think people are still trying to figure out right oh for it was like what's new media? 2008 it's like new media works, but like Is it communications is it field is it some you know, is it its own thing and if it is its own department You know, who do they report to who do they talk to how does it work? And you know a lot of these things that I'm talking about we're actually you know where we sat together And and had this strategy and knew we were trying to figure out where to go And we're trying to figure out how to make organizing and online organizing work together So I'll leave it there with those four stories and then I think now we're gonna open it up for a real conversation


It's time for yours truly, Jimmy Powers with another Grantland Rice story. Hi there, this is Jimmy Powers. Today's sports writers constitute a large and truly wonderful fraternity. And the dean of this great journalistic trade was Grantland Rice. Granny helped the sports writing business grow up. He was there when a paper sports department consisted of one man. Today, the average big city paper has a sports department that consists of perhaps a dozen daily writers apart from the sports editor and his staff of inside men who get out the sport pages. So important has sports become in the national consciousness that a newspaper without sports coverage is like ham minus the eggs. In today's chapter of the Tumul and Shouting, we're going to meet several writing men that Granny grew up with. Several of these didn't write sports, but they all knew the writing game. So with a salute to the every young spirit of Granny Rice, I take up his narrative in first person. During those early 1900s in Atlanta, I enjoyed some wonderful friends. Among these were Don Marquis, Joel Chandler Harris, and Frank L. Stanton. Marquis worked with me on the journal. Stanton and Harris served for years on the Atlanta Constitution. All three were distinct personalities. During those early days in Atlanta, along with sports writing, I also put in a hitch as a theater critic. I can't name the times a young, heavy-set ex-athlete from DePaul University named Don Marquis, and I had two on the aisle. Many will recall Marquis as the fellow who later went to New York and fame with the son and tribune with Archie the Cockroach, Mahidabelle, the old soak, and other rib-tickling columns. Marquis was a firebrand, a genius.  There I stood at the gate of God, drunk but unafraid. That closing line of one of Don's verses mirrored his scorn for any human soul lacking the courage of its convictions. During the fall months in 1904, Don and I helped with the coaching at Georgia Military Academy, some 20 miles from Atlanta. I recall one youngster, a half-back, who moved well with coordination and rhythm. My criticism of him to the coach was that he lacked scrap, needed more aggressiveness. The boy was Stonewall Jackson Christian, grandson of the Civil War's youngest lieutenant general. In 1920, while at West Point for a football game, I renewed my acquaintance with Christian, then an instructor in mathematics. Another Atlanta friend was Joel Chandler Harris. That name might not ring a bell with some, but I'll bet the names Uncle Remus, Brare Rabbit, or Brare Fox Wood. That wonderful series was written by Joel Chandler Harris. These books carry as much appeal today as they did in the early 1900s, because kids will always be kids. Perhaps the unstuffiest man I ever knew, Chandler usually picked up his mail by asking, anything for Uncle Remus? I recall that after Stanley discovered Dr. Livingston in darkest Africa, he toured the country for many years making lectures about his great discovery, all of which left Uncle Remus cold. One year in Atlanta, Stanley wanted to meet Chandler. Uncle Remus refused. Stanley wears a beard, he said. I don't happen to like beards. Besides, he's older than I am. I like youngsters. They're more my kind. I recall two things vividly about the year 1908. One was that I coached the Vanderbilt baseball team and a rugged bunch we were. Trying to work on a newspaper and coach at the same time requires a bit of doing, but we muddled through to a pretty fair season. The second bit of personal history was the death of my old friend, Joel Chandler Harris at the age of 60. The death of Uncle Remus jarred me. He had been a cornerstone of the Constitution in Atlanta for nearly 30 years. I wrote these lines for the next day's paper. Uncle Remus, upon the death of Joel Chandler Harris. There's a shadow on the cotton patch, the blue has left the sky, the morning meadows echo with the south wind sigh, and the gold of all the sunshine in Dixie's turned to gray, but the roses and the violets shall hide his face away.  Beyond the mists he only sees the shadows of the years. The light now lies behind him with his best friend gone away, but the softest winds in Dixie at his heart will kneel to pray. The people of the woodlands, the fur and feathered clan, the bear, the fox, the rabbit, will miss him more than man, but the rose that sways above him in his blossom-tended tomb shall turn its crimson lips of love to kiss away the gloom. The shadows on the cotton patch, the light has left the sky, a world will bow and sorrow at his message of goodbye, and the gold of all the sunshine in Dixie's turned to gray, but the sweetest flowers of the south will hide his face away. It was during these early years in Atlanta that Marquis and I became close friends with Frank L. Stanton, who turned out a column of verse for more than 40 years for the old and splendid Atlanta Constitution. As a youngster, Keats and Shelley had been my particular heroes in the world of verse, but as I rounded first base and into my 20th year, I discovered a fellow named Rudyard Kipling. The meter and jungle drums inherent in Kipling's verse captured my ear and my imagination never let go. My dear and departed pal, Obie Keeler, who was Bobby Jones's Boswell, could recite my stuff by the yard, but whatever verse I've written, more than 6,000 pieces, I've forgotten almost as quickly as I wrote it. Believe me, it just flowed. But by all odds, Stanton was the finest power I ever met. He was a mockingbird singing in a Georgia oak which happened to be flooded with moonlight. Don Marquis, a better judge of poetry than I, James Whitcombe Riley first, and Stanton second among American poets. Mighty locker rolls, just a wearing for you and hundreds of other remembered songs are pure Stanton. Those friends of the early road were interesting cronies, and as time went on, there were a lot of others, men who were distinct individualists. And Rex Beach, built like a grizzly, was certainly one. I first bumped into Rex in an artist and writer's golf tournament at Palm Beach in the middle 20s. I have spent a good part of my career picking all America football players and leading stars in all sports, champions. I could have stopped with Beach in many ways, the most amazing person I've known. He was six feet two and weighed 220 pounds. He had been an Olympic swimming ace. He had played professional football with the Chicago Cherry Circle team, the Chicago Athletic Club. At that time, around 1900, he was rated the best tackle in the country. Rex was a fine boxer and puncher. Many thought that had he turned pro, he might have beaten Jim Jeffries. He boxed often with Fred Stone, who had gone six rounds with Jim Corbett without being hit once. One night in Rector's, famed New York restaurant, Beach collided with a 230-pound Princeton tackle. In the ensuing scuffle, which lasted 27 seconds, Rex put the X-Tiger into a hospital bed for two weeks. With all these physical assets, Beach was the gentlest of men until aroused. I had read most of his books, the spoilers, the barrier, goingsome, the iron trail, and many more, most of them about Alaska and the frozen north. A wonderful skier and fine shot, Beach hunted Kodiak bears without a dog. There was no limit to this 220-pound giant who could move like a halfback. Rex was three years older than I. He had migrated from his home at Atwood, Michigan to Winter Park, Florida. There, from 1891 to 1896, he attended Rollins College. Later, he followed up with various law schools in and around Chicago. He quit law for the Yukon Trail and writing. Another close friend down through the years has been Johnny Kiran, a small, intense bundle of energy who lends stature to the statement that the best gift often arrives in the smallest package. A golfing compatriot before he gave up the game, John once remarked that he never would have quit golf if he had been able to confine his rounds to the made stone links at East Hampton, way out on Long Island. Why? The sandpipers and other marsh birds intrigued him, and Johnny has a deeper yearning for birds than for birdies, despite the fact that he was a first-class golfer, a crack shortstop at Fordham, and a good hockey player. One of the best of the sporting writers until he heard the call of the wild, Kiran was at Marion with me in 1916 when Bobby Jones played in his first amateur. Johnny and I were standing near the ninth tee waiting for Bob to come up. Suddenly there was a clear, keen, and most unusual bird-like call from the thick woods near us. Kiran froze. The bird call came again. Holy Moses, Johnny almost shouted. A yellow-breasted snook. He was off through the woods, gone over two hours. He had found the bird and followed him practically to downtown Philadelphia. You will only be a golf rider, Johnny, I said, on a western desert where there is not a tree nor a bird. I know he never would have seen the finish of a football game or a world series if a green-breasted woodpecker or a purple-tinted grouse had only given him the call. Well, that's all for today. This is Jimmy Powers' transcribe saying, So long for now.


I've heard nothing but excitement to be back on campus. It's just so great to see the campus alive again and to see my Holyoke students arriving and bringing life to the greens and the residence halls. This was my dream school and I'm doing what was meant for me. It's such an inclusive community and I really wanted to go to a historically women's college so I'm super excited. It's like kind of bittersweet because it's like on the one hand it's like oh my gosh I'm finally back after a year and a half for those of us who weren't here since March 2020. But then it's also like we're still dealing with like you know a global pandemic. Feels like a return to normalcy with a little bit of like everyone's still being cautious and careful but it's great to have the community back. This is why I chose my Holyoke. I feel so safe here and everybody is so welcoming. It's palpable on campus as our community is coming back together in ways that we haven't been before and so it's very exciting. It's a very special, special place and a special time for us.


To my muse give attention, and deem it not a mystery, if I jumble up together music, poetry, and history. To sing of the vices of Wicked Queen Bess, sir, whose memory posterity with blushes shall confess, sir.

Nice. Woo! Cut this man in a! UI Goku is so sick! How's it going everybody? Dotted away here back with some more Dragon Ball Fighters, Ranked Matches. This time playing a team of UI Goku, Bardock and Yamcha. And I am a little bit worried about our opponents playing Goat Tanks here. Definitely a super strong character, but of course Broly's also there. So we got a lot to worry. Even if we get through the Goat Tanks at all, the first machine gun punch has been fired! Woo! The miss on the Bardock assist baits the reflect. That was kind of sick. Hold on. Let me just go the normal UI Goku route. Let's get a read on what they're going for here. Ah! 2H was too early and now I'm getting spin kicked. Yeah. I am worried about this. Two bars. That's a lot of machine. That's four machine gun punches. Oh, we're definitely UI teching then. You gave me no other... You left me no other... You set up the Ghost Okie? I gotta run for my life. All right. With UI Goku, we can just do a normal combo. That's kind of crazy. And the Ghost Okie just completely countered? I love to see that. Hey, we're going optimal. All right. We didn't blow that. I blew it. I blew it. I blew it. I blew it. I blew it. I blew it. I'm going to have to counter. Counter! Counter! No! I didn't get to counter up in time. The UI striked and only goes up. What are you doing, Broly?  I'm definitely leaving because I'm feeling brave and not because I'm afraid. Bardock, please help me out. The flea from Broly, he was doing too much, even though UI Goku's a really good matchup for him. I was just not feeling that. Wow, nice block. But I'm going to have to go ahead and meet you with a mash in the middle. Play the mash in the middle theme music. I'm thinking of Malcolm. Hey, trip him up. Hey, oh, I'm surprised. That was a lot. I'm thinking a lot from Bardock's auto combo there, but it still came through with that hitbox. Appreciating that. I probably deserve to get... Woo! No! I flew too far away. No! No, no, no, no, no! No! The miracle super punch. Look at the damage. Oh, it hurts. Look, it just clipped me. Look, I made one mistake. Okay. I couldn't take it.  I was like, let me dial in, let me focus. I couldn't focus at the machine gun punch, dude. Even without the EX, you get caught by one of those. You are going for a ride. Tough. All right. We still have a bit of a health advantage here. Nothing too crazy that I would say the game is looking sealed away or anything. Should have just tried to block. I was going for a counter super. I think this is where we spark. This is where we part ways with our sparking blast. If we even live to see another day, we're going to spark it up. No way. Wow. That was so bad for me. He just plummeted to the ground. Meanwhile, I was caught in an animation. That was nice. That was a nice. If he did that on purpose, that was an excellent read. Even if he didn't, that was savant like. I can't believe it. That was a great like he jumped up at the perfect angle where he had the advantage there. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, not the machine gun punch. Please. Arksis, Arksis, you got to nerf the damage. Quick. Do it now. Even though that wasn't a part of it. All right. He blocked. I'm not plus there. Oh my God. He's just machine gun punching. He's just a machine gun punch man. I was too afraid. He was definitely playing with his food there. He was like, I just want to punch you in the face a thousand more times. Okay. It doesn't feel so good on the other side. It was very funny in my video. It was it's very machine gun punch feels so nice to land and it hurts to get it by. I'm going to start with a counter. I regretted it. Look at him. He's just punching in the air and I'm too afraid to stop it. I'm done. Watch this to age. Watch this to age. I've had enough. Enough of being bullied. Oh no. Oh God. So sick. Cut this man in half with your arm. All right. Nice. Go optimal. Go optimal. Don't drop it. Great segment. I let the I let you I talk for himself right there. And let me take a comment to you. Nice. That was really, really good. All right. Beautiful segment. That's exactly how you like to draw it up. Actually. Yeah. I overdid it with the roles. I was trying to get like maybe I was trying to mix them up into either, you know, a block of like having him block or having him take a grab, but I just panicked. I once he jumped up, I was like, oh, he's switching out. Talk to him. We're going to get three bars here. I'm going to I'm just going to spend the three bars. No other assists are up. I got a lot of work to do. I need to force him to make a spark here. Will he do it here? Probably not. He's saving it for go tanks. Oh, he called me out on that. I thought I thought for sure he'd let me get away with under the rotation, but excellent job calling me out when he did six bars. Is he going to spend three of them right now? But he might be spending more. He's already spending the. No, he doesn't spend the two. Never mind. Just going to hit the three with go tanks and probably try to punch me in the face. Let's take bets in the comments right now. Tag the time of this video and say yes or no. Is he going to machine a bunch? He did, but we got him back for it. Adaptation has been splendid. The adaptation. We are beating the move that needs to be nerfed right now. And it feels so good. I'm enjoying. You know what? You I go to go ahead and talk to him. I can feel you. I go to wants to talk to him right now. So let's just talk to him. What's he got for us? Talk to me. Talk to me. Come here. I'm coming right back. Level two bounce off the wall. Everything. God, that was a great game. We played that one really well. Got a lot of clutch two H's on the machine gun punch. A really good segment against Broly with UI just going through UI. It was looking crazy there. That medium move. I got to use it more. Do I start the round with it though? Of course. Why not? Dragon Rush lands first. That was an early Dragon Rush in the set, but I'm okay with that. We are going bright and early. Another good two A. He's trying to machine gun punch everything. He's drunk on the machine gun punch power. Another good signal. Get both of them out of here. Go G. You and your two dads. Let's go. Beautiful. This is crazy. UI Goku is just going. He's destroying him. UI Goku is just doing work. I was I was losing it. That's my machine gun punch. All right. Level one to get out of there. Roll away. Level one again for a bit of spice. Nice. Nice. He's adapting to me now. The second round of adaptations are coming out. Oh, we were at a right height. But nice. All right.  Going to be enough to get a kill. I'm going to stay in with UI Goku though. I like the Broly matchup. So we might as well try to force Spark with UI out. That's kind of my thought process right now. But I don't know. He's adapted pretty well to my UI Goku. Okay. I forgot the EX1 is in full screen. That was bad. That was bad. We were walking through Key Blast though. I was focusing. I was like, let me see if I can't flex. He didn't Spark. So we failed our real mission objective. Real mission failed. We'll get him next time. Actually, this is Broly anchor. I can't say that for sure. Auto combo amazes me to this day. This is the original DLC fight right now. Bardock and Broly. These were the two that set the pace for fighters. Oh, I shouldn't have mashed. Of course, Broly back then was not the Broly we knew today. He's received numerous buffs and he's become much, much better. Although admittedly, I don't think he was as bad back then as other people said he was. There was fuzzy. He might have been. He might have been just for that. There was fuzzies. There was a lot going against Broly back in the original days. Get him out of here though. Can we just level three real fast? That's all I need, by the way. I'm going low. Oh, yes. I decided that real last minute, too. I definitely was going high up until that point. No, I dropped it. Level three. Yeah, I meant to drag and rush. I definitely didn't just miss the input. Great dragon rush. Well planned and executed. Either way though, those were some really great games. So let's move on to the next one and see what else we can get to happen. We are back and we are up against Gojira and Kepler's beauty, who we have fought in a lot on the channel. We just happened to run into her a lot. Woo, let's back that wall. Another UI Goku is just having a fear of you. Ah, I jumped too far back to continue it. Darn. All right, roll. Oh, that was a clean catch. That was really good. All right, let's see if we can't get a... No, you know what? No, we're going to drop that. That's actually not safe, by the way. I'm only doing it technically... It's not safe, but you can technically make it safe with EXing. Dragon rush, nice, it did hit. Can we even kill here though? I think I overestimated the damage just a bit. I've been focusing a little too much. What am I trying to say? You can make it safe by spending half a bar. That's right. Sorry, I am really getting lost in UI Goku right now. This is what when people... A lot of people think UI Goku is in a fun character and I can see what they mean. He is a little one note, but I just think with all of the stuff you can do, like walking forward and like dodging key blasts and all the stuff you could potentially do, like the real flashy looking stuff, I think that makes him so much fun. Like, I'm constantly thinking about... I'm just going to UI tech. I am UI... Okay, you're Kefla. I was UI Goku. All right, maybe this time I... You know what, this time I'm going to respect your wishes? And I'm just going to get out of there the old natural way. All right, we are back. I have switched out of UI Goku. I no longer need 300% of my brain power. I'm back to talking. I have un-retired.  Ah, an assist call too. Oh, that would have been sick. Nice. Definitely... I think she was definitely going for that read on the behind the back thing. We didn't want to give that up. Reflect, key blast, key blast. Watch the super dash, watch the tag. Wolf Fang faced right through the super dash. That's what you want to see. You have to see that. Win the air to air. Goku assist in the drag rush. No, not even close to timed well enough. UI Goku is starting to make some moves. Jumping. Jump out of that. We don't need to see that in our lives. I don't need that energy. But I can't... You know what? I really did run right back to that old corner, huh? I got out and I pulled me right back in. EX that. All right, vanish. I don't want this side. No, I... I am right back in that old corner again. That old home. Wow, the nostalgic memories. I really got to... I got to learn to stay away from there. All right, do I... I'm going to raw tag out. Hold on. Let's go UI Goku versus UI Goku here. Dad, I'm not trying to... Nope. All right, all right. I'll take it. That should be enough. Go max damage route. Go max damage. All right, that's good. Level one. Take it away. We're going to get game one. I think we did pretty well early, but then we started really slowing down again. That's fine. The good enough start at the beginning was more than good enough. And 8,500 points. Almost on 600. That was really good. Amazing, amazing, amazing. Thank you. It was a pretty good game. Nice UI Goku star. I definitely... I took the bait and I didn't even look back. No. I overcommitted to that jab. I overcommitted. If I was going to commit, I should have just committed to another one. I should have square squared instead of square. Okay, I'm sparking. This was a little much. A little too much damage right there. We're just going to have to use sparking early and get out of there. All right, level three just for max damage.  That's okay. We don't need it anymore. We're done with sparking. Beautiful. Another happy birthday. And Kefla was about to get out, but that's fine. Took a chunk out of her life already. Nice. I keep taking the bait on that. I got to remember to stop. I'm too aggr... Whoa! Level three out of nowhere. We did not need this. Oh, no way. That's blue Goku. I always forget. I can't believe they didn't make it with just UI. I feel like they could have. They wanted to keep Goku's shirt though. That's... I feel like that's genuinely what it was. They wanted UI Goku to start the game without a shirt and they wanted the dramatic finish to have it with the shirt. That's the only difference, I think. And of course the UI Omen, but I... You know, with Gojira's dramatic finish, I don't think form consistency is... Like, he would just power down in that case. Overcommitted. Oh, I tried to just get a 2M. No! Reflect that in back dash. That was nice. 2H. God is e-slow. Alright, double reflect to get out of there. Another UI assist. I'm taking the bait every time. I'm jumping in. Okay, down tech and reflect. Down tech and reflect. No, I predicted a jump in. Nice play. Nice play. I thought I was going to see the jump in heavy. Key spin as well. Alright, we are... Oh my good. My reflects have gotten me out of a lot of trouble, but you can't reflect Dragon Rush. In the end, the Dragon Rush will always find you. You've got to be able to tech it head on. Don't do the Key Blast thing again. Raw tag! There was the overhead. Make sense. Make sense. I can respect it. Alright, Bardock. You're going to have to make a huge comeback here. This time he blocked. Oh, come on. The trade. Dragon Rush. Yes. Nice. That could have gone bad. Oh, it's still going bad. It's still going bad right now. No! I tried to dash behind him, but UI Goku caught me. Stop! Stop! I'm jumping up. I'm jumping up. I'm not doing it this time. The drop on Kefla's going to stick with me a long time if I don't make this happen. Oh, goodness, Kefla, please. Ah, there's the overhead option. I didn't read it that time. Drop it, drop it, drop it. Sparking, playing with your food. Didn't want the normal combo. You want the route. You want to look cool. I get it, but drop it. We all want to look cool sometime. Game. Tough game with that drop. Not going to lie to you. Tough game. Tough game. You know what? I'm going to go with a sad sticker on that one. Let's make this the last one. All right. I'm should pre- Oh, I didn't block low. I did the dash forward, but I was getting ready to press on with the offense. All right. Gojira blue getting a good start for the team here. I'm going to try the UI tech. All right. It worked out. Whoo. Okay. Good. That hit. Now we can start actually trying to make stuff happen. All right. Nice enough. Nice enough. Nice enough. We love to see it. Hold it. Time it. Key blast it. Optimize it. Oh, no. No. Oh, that was... You could tell the ending of that combo was not supposed to go like that. Okay. Good. Whoo. I felt like Dragon Rush was the safest option there, but I also wanted to make it a tick throw just in case. Yikes, dude. That was scary. All right. All right. We're on Keflina. Avoid that. We got to start actually... We're avoiding it, but I got to start making the read for it. Two bars. Will it kill? Yes. We tanked. Go, go. Follow it up. Follow it up. Whoo. That was sick. Got you. Race you to the bottom, Kefla. Another Dragon Rush. This is going to open up offense for us, because now we've done it so much that they got to try to take it. Oh, my mistakes. Really. Really? Okay. I thought the Dragon Rush was going to become more of a precedent there. That's fine, too. All right. Goku catch. Easiest catch of... I like how UI Goku's super never misses. They could have easily made it to where you had to time it pretty well, but no, they didn't do that. Oh, that might have been worse case scenario. Oh, that hurt. It's crazy how if I would have just put my controller down for 30 seconds, I'd be in a better position. But let's not talk about that, because it makes me sad. Oh, yeah. Imagine if I put my controller down 30 seconds ago. Bartok would have been at full health, and I wouldn't have been here to mess it up. Oh, God. Okay. At least we both have sparking. That's the benefit here, but it's going to come down to the UI versus Yamcha match. Oh, I should have sparked a vanish. If anybody needs me, I'll be in my room panicking. UI, please. This is already so much damage. Yeah, I felt that. UI has a lot of reeds on sparking, too, that are very dangerous. So we're going to have to commit here, boys. I'm going to spark on wake up. Please. No. Oh, so late on the Super Dash. We can still win this. We can still win this. I know a lot of people are saying it's already over, and you might be checking the time code of this video and me. Maybe it is over, but maybe I just win in that amount of time, huh? Did we ever expect I could win in 30 seconds? Let's go. Who thinks I'm winning in 30 seconds?  No. You just believe a little bit harder than the rest. You're... That dive kick might be the stupidest thing I've ever done.  That was a heartbreaker, dude. Oh, the happy birth. Oh, there's too many things to think back on. I got to go. I got to... Oh, man, I got to go lay down and look at the ceiling after this one. Hopefully you enjoyed it, though.

Hello, and welcome into the Coach's Corner. I'm Joe Wombo, joined now with Ed Hoddle, head coach of the football team. And Coach faced a little bit of adversity this weekend, but still got some solid performances out of that wide receiver core that you have there. Yeah, Preston and Devon had solid days. Dev did a great job, as he always does, running after the catch and making some big grabs for us. And Preston being the explosive player that he is in teams as well as offensively, great day for him, not a great day for the team. So as we look at it, we've got some things to clean up. And you talked about that explosiveness, first line, first play from scrimmage, you get a pick. Yep, that's Austin being Austin in the right place at the right time. He's a great player for us. Made two picks. I think he had four pass break ups on Saturday. Just needed one more. And that's kind of the way our day went. But good performances by that group, for sure. And overall, it was a good performance. Didn't get it done at the end of the day. However, you have a chance to recuperate this week and go out and make a statement again on Saturday. Yeah, as you look at it, it's a situation where we don't have a ton of really big game experience. And I think we learned some valuable lessons about ourselves and how we prepared for the game. I learned a lot. And I think the players learned a lot. I think the staff learned a lot. I think it's a situation where we're going to look back at this, albeit disappointed, an opportunity to learn a great deal about our football team and our program as a whole. And it's always good to face those learning moments and adversity at that point in the season before the last game of the season. Yeah, I mean, it's a situation where you don't want to end the year like that. And for us, we hope to continue to have a chance to play at least another one more football game. So it is nice to see it, albeit it's bitterly disappointing. And I know the guys and I had a chance to meet with a lot of guys yesterday as well as the team and talk through a lot of things. And hopefully we can clean up our focus as we go along the week, really get locked in on the task at hand on Saturday. You talked about hopefully playing one more. You do have one more regular season game and one more in the Mac. What is it that you're going to have to do to go out and get that W that you're looking for? We've got to be focused mentally. I think that was probably one of the biggest things that common themes that we heard yesterday and Sunday talking to the guys was we lost our focus. And again, learning to deal with adversity as well as learning to deal with success, it's a process. So for us, I think it's getting back to the fundamentals of football and doing what we do and not pressing in game, not worrying about things we can't control, not playing outside of our position, not trying to make every place not going to be a big play. Big plays happen because we're in the right spots and we're fundamentally sound. So that's kind of our focus. And I'm excited to get back to work today. It's a tough lesson to learn, but it needs to be learned. Absolutely. We wish you the best of luck in preparation this week and finding that focus. And we'll be watching the game on Saturday. Thank you very much. He's Ed Hoddle. I'm Joe Waman. This has been the Coach's Corner.


Atoms are unbelievably small. So small that they were once thought to be the smallest unit of matter. That is, until some recent advancements in particle physics came along.  The positively charged proton, the neutrally charged neutron, and the negatively charged electron. The electrons, which orbit the atom, are leptons, which are also known as fundamental particles or particles that are not made up of any other smaller particle. However, what's more interesting about the electrons is that they possess a property called a wave function. To understand what the wave function is, let's just say I wanted to know the location of an electron orbiting around the atom. Unfortunately, the baffling laws of quantum mechanics prevent me from knowing the exact location of an electron at a given point in space at any given moment in time. However, the wave function tells me the general area of space where the electron is most likely to be at any given moment. Still not clear enough? Then let me give you another example. Let's say we have a box with four corners, A, B, C, and D. Now, let's say I put an electron in the box and put a lid on the box and then let the electron freely bounce around in the box while I hooked up the box to a supercomputer which would try to locate the electron inside the box. Now, when the computer starts to give you the location of the electron, you'd expect a very specific answer like the electron is located three inches away from the left side or six inches away from the right side, etc. But that's not the answer you would get. Now, obviously the results which you just heard are just exaggerated for the sake of this video because in real life you probably would not get results like that. Instead, you'd probably get results like this where the high concentration of dots indicate where the electron is most likely to be found inside the box and the low concentration of dots indicate where the electron is least likely to be found inside the box. So, basically in a nutshell, the wave function just tells you where the electron or any subatomic particle is most likely to be found at any given moment in time. So, now that we're done talking about the electrons, let's now take a look at the protons and neutrons that make up the atomic nuclei. Now, protons and neutrons are hadrons or a class of subatomic particles that are made up of even smaller subatomic particles called quarks and gluons. Now, as far as we know in our universe there exist six types of quarks. The down quark, the up quark, the strange quark, the charm quark, the top quark, and finally the bottom quark. Protons are made up of two up quarks and one down quark. Neutrons, on the other hand, are made up of two down quarks and one up quark. Now, we can understand how quarks interact with each other through produced particles like protons and neutrons through a process called quantum chromodynamics. As you can see, all six quarks have one of three types of charges which physicists describe using three primary colors, red, green, and blue. In order to create a particle, one red, blue, and green quark must combine to create white, which would be an electrically neutral particle like a neutron. So, in short, that's the basics of quantum chromodynamics. The world of atoms is really weird. It's so weird that the laws of physics that govern the world of atoms are completely different from the laws of physics that govern our everyday lives.  And for those of you who are watching this and already know a little bit about quantum mechanics, you're probably thinking, why hasn't he talked about Schoediner's cat or the theory of everything? That's because those principles of quantum mechanics are so awesome that they deserve their own videos. So, if you want to learn more about the wacky quantum realm, then subscribe for more science videos.


That's one of the best anxiety tools I've ever come across. I'm freaking out, man. Hey, what's up guys? It's Josh here. Today I want to review this Phinibit. This is a supplement or I'm not really sure how to label it, but I'm going to call it a supplement that I've wanted to review for a long time. People have told me this is their favorite supplement ever. And after lots and lots and lots of testing, I've kind of fine tuned the pros and the cons of the supplements. I might not be able to monetize this video because I'm not really sure how Phinibit is labeled. Some people might consider a designer drug. I'm not too sure. This was purchased legally. I feel it's very safe. It's kind of like the only thing that I found that really lasts a long time. I think it's prescribed in Russia for anti-anxiety. I could totally see why. Oftentimes people combined it with 100 milligrams of caffeine.  So when I do take it, I will have had some caffeine. To me, I find that this really is best to be taken midday because it has such a long half-life that if you take a lot at night, you might feel a little bit in the morning. You might feel a little drowsiness. But if you take a decent amount in the middle of the day, the rest of your day is really relaxing and then all of your sleep is relaxing too. So usually I find about midday seems to work the best for me. Some people take it for sleep. Certain doses can cause drowsiness slash alertness. People say that they feel alert while taking this. Not really for me. This is definitely a more drowsy, tiring thing. You know, there's several times I've taken it and I've definitely felt way more tired, way sooner and just had to go knock out and go to sleep. Everyone recommends not taking it every day. That's what everyone said. I don't like taking it for fun. I know a lot of people do take it for fun. I can have fun on certain things. Every time I've taken it recreationally or taken it every few days, I just don't enjoy it. I find the longer that I don't take it, the more effective that it is and the more anxious I am, the more effective that it is. When I'm just really stressed out and I have to go do something and I'm just high energy, it is the absolute best thing. Like I could think of two times in the last few months where I'm just at my wits and I gotta keep doing stuff. I really don't have anybody to talk to. Everything's just crashing down and I gotta keep going, I take it and I could just count on a nice, smooth evening. Really, really enjoyed this stuff. Again, the more anxious I am, the more I wait, the better it is. That's probably the same with any sort of supplement but it's 100% with Fennabit. I would just wait as long as you can till you feel anxious and then take it. Probably no more than once a week. That's just how I'd use it personally. I don't really get too much of a rebound or a hangover effect. People talk about that because it lasts so long and a lot of times if you take a downer, once it goes away, you'll feel up. If you take an upper, once it goes away, you'll feel down. I don't really get that too much with this, especially off one dose. That's one of the best anxiety tools I've ever come across. I actually like it a little more than Xanax because it lasts so long.  With this, you take it and you're just showing for a long, long, long time and I really, really enjoyed it. You do not wanna take a big dose when you have a lot to do. That wouldn't be very good and you don't wanna take it every day.  I don't know. I don't really enjoy it taking it every day or every other couple of days. Every time I've tried that, I just really didn't enjoy it. When I take it, when I'm not anxious, you kinda get in this state where you wanna do something fun but the phenobit just makes you not wanna do anything. That does happen every now and again but mainly when I'm just taking it, just to take it. If I take it with anxiety, I mean it's literally like the perfect counterpart at least for me. I can't think of almost anything that would work better than phenobit for me personally for anxiety. Online, I found that it reduces stress anxiety. It promotes restful sleep. It's a social lubricant. It's used to treat alcohol addiction. It's good for mood enhancement. It impedes age-related neurodegeneration so I guess it's got some good benefits besides that. Let me know what you think of phenobit. Have you tried phenobit? Have you not tried phenobit? Again, the longer I wait and the more anxiety I have, the better it is. When I just take it for whenever, I actually don't really enjoy it too much. This one for me is just a straight anxiety aid. I'd be very interested to see what you think of phenobit down below. Let me know if you've tried it. Have you not tried it? What are your doses? Do you try caffeine? Do you not try caffeine? I'd be very interested to see down below. We're on the road of 25,000 subscribers and I couldn't do without any of you guys's help. You guys are the best. I'm having a great day out here. Hopefully, having a great day at home. See you all in the next video. Peace.


But I wanted to start with, I suppose, a bit of an introduction to the struggle in Rajava, especially from your perspective. You've been someone who's been following this for a while now. A few years. Yeah. So I wonder if you could explain, I suppose, to the audience, why you've been so interested in what's going on there and a bit of background to, I suppose, why, why do the left follow what's going on there? Well, I mean, this is one of the most exciting political experiments really since the anarchists in Spain in the 1930s is one of the few occasions when people have actually had an extensive stretch of territory in which to try to see if libertarian socialist ideas can really be put into practice and actually work on the ground with a lot of really startling success, to be honest. I first found out about the revolution in Rajava when people there contacted me and, you know, at first, I think everyone reacted of a certain degree of incredulity. I mean, is this really true? Could this be happening? Could all of this been happening for all these years? And I'd never heard about it, but, you know, the more I learned, the more I was really struck by how profound an historical experiment it really was. In what way? So what's that mean? I mean, what we're talking about is really something that started within the PKK, which is the guerrilla movement. And it's a larger political movement within Turkey, which is originally a separate Marxist Leninist separatist movement. Over time, it has evolved. And often this is attributed almost exclusively to the personality of one person or the head of the PKK, Abdullah Ojalon, although in fact, a lot of what happened within the PKK was the result of internal struggle, especially women's struggle within the organization itself. What Ojalon has to be, his credit is that he was open to it, which for the most part, these sort of old patriarchal Marxist Leninist types are not. And gradually over time, PKK transformed from relatively traditional national liberation struggle to was pushing for a separate Kurdish state to something really different. A group whose major planks are social ecology, a lot of it inspired by Murray Bookchin, although they have their own version of democratic and federalism that they've developed, partly based on their own experience, partly on Kurdish traditions and partly based on anarchist theory. And so you have social ecology, direct democracy and women's liberation being sort of primary planks of a social struggle, which no longer actually desires a separate state at all. In fact, sees itself as an essential opposition to the very idea of a state. This is something which we haven't seen anything really like it happen in many years, and there's a Zapatistas, some closest parallel one can think of. But even the Zapatistas don't really control a contiguous territory, whereas these people actually do. And there's been, I suppose, what could seem a somewhat bizarre or strange or unlikely alliance between this movement in Rajava, liberation, libertarian socialist and the United States. So it was the combination of those two forces that was capable of defeating ISIS since 2014, and it is protection from the United States. From the United States, it's protected Rajava from other enemies from Turkey, which is what we'll get on to in a moment. If you want me to do the background, I can. Oh, there's a PKK originally that had this profound transformation. What happened in Syria was PYD. It was a political party with very similar ideology. Also follows the writings of Ojalana whatnot. They are not directly connected. But during the Syrian Revolution, essentially the Syrian government pulled out of that area. It had been very strongly organized, the Kurdish parts of Syria. And negotiations ensued, and they basically talked to Syrian forces into just pulling out and leaving people there to handle their own affairs. I mean, they took everything when they left.  So they were an incredibly advantageous situation. All the government buildings had nothing in them, but they were empty. And they suddenly had the situation where they were actually able to put the things they'd been working out and discussing in theory for 20 years into effect. Now, at first, basically, nobody noticed them. Then there were several attacks from various jihadists, largely seemed to have been funded, if not direct, absolutely directed by the Turkish secret police. But gradually, the Kurdish region ended up in a conflict with ISIS. ISIS, well, the origins of ISIS still remain obscure, but it's very clear that Turkish intelligence along with various Gulf state intelligence had a lot to do with putting them together, and they seem to have coordinated quite well with Turkish authorities of various kinds. They were trading with Turkey. For example, during the height of ISIS, the caliphate was openly trading oil. We have Turkey while the Kurdish region was under total embargo. They couldn't bring in Sun and Law was involved. Yes, he was. He was, I believe, minister of energy or something. Yeah, I mean, it was it was pretty it's one of these situations where everyone in the region knows what's going on, but you're not allowed to say it on TV outside of, you know, in Europe or America.  I mean, really blatant stuff like that, but still somehow it was like, how could you possibly suggest that a NATO ally is dealing with ISIS here? We're all not supposed to talk about it. But so ISIS, which is essentially acting as a Turkish proxy, was trying to take out the Kurdish region of North Syria to consolidate their power there and especially to consolidate the border with Turkey, which is where they're getting their supplies. They went after Kobane, which is the flattest area and the easiest to attack. And it turned into this epic struggle in which essentially the U.S. was forced for various reasons to align themselves with people who are basically very close to a bunch of anarchists. It's a very weird historical situation. But they were caught in the middle and eventually an alliance of convenience followed. I always emphasize this was a military alliance and not a political alliance. For example, the American government has never supported Rojava being part of the peace process in Syria. They don't have a place at the table at all, even though these tiny little political parties basically represent nobody on the ground. Do Russia actually supports Rojava being in the peace process? And America doesn't. Most people don't know that. There was a military alliance simply because they both have the same enemy. And as a result, there have been certain attachments, particularly personal attachments. You know, a lot of the Americans who were down there ended up feeling well, these guys are our friends are the only people who we can actually trust and feel very strongly that they shouldn't be thrown to the wolves. There's also a practical matter. A lot of the American officers say, well, look, if we ally with someone and then allow them to be completely wiped out the moment, they're no longer convenient to us by our own allies. Well, no one's ever going to rely with us again.
