Presidential Powers 2: Crash Course Government and Politics #12
Presidential Powers 2: Crash Course Government and Politics #12 Teacherflix 3 Views • 2 years ago

This week Craig continues our conversation on presidential powers by looking at those NOT found in the Constitution - implied or inherent powers. We’ll talk about how the President uses their power to negotiate executive agreements, recommend legislative initiatives, instate executive orders, impound funds, and claim executive privilege in order to get things done. Implied powers are kind of tough to tack down, as they aren’t really powers until they’re asserted, but once they are, most subsequent Presidents chose not to give them up. So we’ll try to cover those we’ve seen so far and talk a little bit about reactions to these sometimes controversial actions from the other branches of Congress.

Enormous Tunnels Found in Brazil Left Scientists Stunned
Enormous Tunnels Found in Brazil Left Scientists Stunned Teacherflix 4 Views • 8 months ago

Deep inside the Amazon, scientists uncovered gigantic tunnels carved into solid rock. At first glance, they look like natural caves, but the smooth floors and marks on the walls prove otherwise. In this video, we explore the strangest underground mysteries ever discovered. From hidden tunnels drawn in Da Vinci’s sketches to networks secretly connecting Europe, and from ancient treasures buried beneath Egyptian pyramids to sunken civilizations under Lake Huron and Cuba. These are the discoveries that rewrite history and challenge everything we thought we knew about the ancient world.

Community Ecology: Feel the Love - Crash Course Ecology #4
Community Ecology: Feel the Love - Crash Course Ecology #4 Teacherflix 4 Views • 2 years ago

Interactions between species are what define ecological communities, and community ecology studies these interactions anywhere they take place. Although interspecies interactions are mostly competitive, competition is pretty dangerous, so a lot of interactions are actually about side-stepping direct competition and instead finding ways to divvy up resources to let species get along. Feel the love?

Who Even Is An Entrepreneur?: Crash Course Business - Entrepreneurship #1 Teacherflix 2 Views • 2 years ago

In this episode of Crash Course Business: Entrepreneurship, Anna helps us to figure out who Entrepreneurs are, and what that title actually means.

Columbus, Vasco da Gama, and Zheng He - 15th Century Mariners: Crash Course World History #21
Columbus, Vasco da Gama, and Zheng He - 15th Century Mariners: Crash Course World History #21 Teacherflix 2 Views • 2 years ago

In which John Green teaches you about the beginning of the so-called Age of Discovery. You've probably heard of Christopher Columbus, who "discovered" America in 1492, but what about Vasco da Gama? How about Zheng He? Columbus gets a bad rap from many modern historians, but it turns out he was pretty important as far as the history of the world goes. That said, he wasn't the only pioneer plying the seas in the 1400s. In Portugal, Vasco da Gama was busy integrating Europe into the Indian Ocean Trade by sailing around Africa. Chinese admiral Zheng He was also traveling far and wide in the largest wooden ships ever built. Columbus, whether portrayed as a hero or a villain, is usually credited as the great sailor of the 15th century, but he definitely wasn't the only contender. What better way to settle this question than with a knock-down, drag-out, no holds barred, old-fashioned battle royal? We were going to make it a cage match, but welding is EXPENSIVE.

The Oort Cloud: Crash Course Astronomy #22
The Oort Cloud: Crash Course Astronomy #22 Teacherflix 5 Views • 2 years ago

Now that we’re done with the planets, asteroid belt, and comets, we’re heading to the outskirts of the solar system. Out past Neptune are vast reservoirs of icy bodies that can become comets if they get poked into the inner solar system. The Kuiper Belt is a donut shape aligned with the plane of the solar system; the scattered disk is more eccentric and is the source of short-period comets, and the Oort Cloud which surrounds the solar system out to great distances is the source of long-period comets. These bodies all probably formed closer to the Sun and got flung out to the solar system’s suburbs by gravitational interactions with the outer planets.

The Columbian Exchange: Crash Course World History #23
The Columbian Exchange: Crash Course World History #23 Teacherflix 3 Views • 2 years ago

In which John Green teaches you about the changes wrought by contact between the Old World and the New. John does this by exploring the totally awesome history book "The Columbian Exchange" by Alfred Crosby, Jr. After Columbus "discovered" the Americas, European conquerors, traders, and settlers brought all manner of changes to the formerly isolated continents. Disease and invasive plant and animal species remade the New World, usually in negative ways. While native people, plants, and animals were being displaced in the Americas, the rest of the world was benefitting from American imports, especially foods like maize, tomatoes, potatoes, pineapple, blueberries, sweet potatoes, and manioc. Was the Columbian Exchange a net positive? It's debatable. So debate.

Slavery - Crash Course US History #13
Slavery - Crash Course US History #13 Teacherflix 9 Views • 2 years ago

In which John Green teaches you about America's "peculiar institution," slavery. I wouldn't really call it peculiar. I'd lean more toward a horrifying and depressing institution, but nobody asked me. John will talk about what life was like for an enslaved person in the 19th century United States, and how enslaved people resisted oppression, to the degree that was possible. We'll hear about cotton plantations, the violent punishment of enslaved people, the day-to-day lives of enslaved people, and slave rebellions. Nat Turner, Harriet Tubman, and Whipped Peter all make an appearance. Slavery as an institution is arguably the darkest part of America's history, and we're still dealing with its aftermath 150 years after it ended.
