The story of Peter

This is Peter, also known as Gordon — an enslaved man from a Louisiana plantation. He was brutalized by his enslavers and whipped so severely that the wounds on his back rose into thick, permanent scars. I searched for him, found him, showed you those scars, then held him and told him I loved him. And I meant it.

During King Leopold II’s rule of the Congo Free State from 1885 to 1908, the Force Publique enforced brutal rubber extraction quotas through systematic mutilation. To ensure expensive imported ammunition was not wasted on hunting or mutinies, European officers required soldiers to provide one severed right hand as proof for every bullet fired at resistors. When soldiers missed targets or used bullets for other purposes, they routinely severed the hands of living men, women, and children to falsify their kill counts and meet their quotas.

March 7, 1965 — "Bloody Sunday" in Selma, Alabama.

On this pivotal day in American civil rights history, nonviolent marchers led by John Lewis and Hosea Williams attempted to walk from Selma to Montgomery to demand voting rights for Black Americans. As they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge, they were met by Alabama State Troopers and a deputized posse under orders from Governor George Wallace.

What followed was a violent crackdown. State troopers fired tear gas, charged the crowd on horseback, and brutally beat peaceful protesters with nightsticks, sending dozens to the hospital and turning a local church into an emergency triage center. The shocking televised footage outraged the nation and served as the direct catalyst for the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

In this archival history breakdown, we examine the speech by Governor George Wallace, the confrontation at the bridge, the immediate aftermath in Selma, and how "Bloody Sunday" changed the Civil Rights Movement forever.

On September 15, 1963, an act of domestic terrorism in Birmingham, Alabama, became a turning point in the American Civil Rights Movement. Just before 11 a.m., 19 sticks of dynamite exploded under the steps of the 16th Street Baptist Church, killing four young girls in the basement restroom: Addie Mae Collins, Denise McNair, Carole Robertson, and Cynthia Wesley. The bombing shocked the nation and helped galvanize support for the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

The Trans‑Atlantic Slave Trade was one of the largest forced migrations in human history—an economic system built on violence, exploitation, and the dehumanization of millions of African men, women, and children. This video explores how European powers, West African kingdoms, and the Americas became entangled in a brutal trade network that lasted over 400 years.

You’ll learn about the origins of the trade, the capture and sale of enslaved Africans, the horrors of the Middle Passage, and the lasting impact on societies across Africa, Europe, and the Americas. The legacy of this history continues to shape our world today—through culture, identity, inequality, and ongoing conversations about justice and remembrance.

This rare, archival footage from the mid-1960s captures the deeply ingrained racial prejudices and systemic resistance to housing integration in Cicero, Illinois—a northern suburb of Chicago.

During the Civil Rights Movement, Martin Luther King Jr. and the Chicago Freedom Movement targeted Chicago and its surrounding suburbs to protest housing discrimination, redlining, and segregation. Cicero became a major flashpoint, marked by violent counter-protests against peaceful marchers.

In this video, an interviewer speaks with residents across generations, revealing how anti-Black bias was passed down and normalized:

This archival footage from 1957 provides a stark look at the "Massive Resistance" movement against desegregation in the American South. The film captures the intense social and political climate following the Brown v. Board of Education ruling, featuring candid interviews with citizens who cite biblical justifications for inequality alongside footage of Ku Klux Klan rallies. From defiant speeches by Southern governors to the systemic efforts to delay integrated schooling, this document highlights the deep-seated opposition faced by the Civil Rights Movement and the complex struggle for racial justice in mid-century America.
