    Explains why I stopped watching those Edutainment History Channels like History Matters, Oversimplified, Alternate History Hub, and so on.

      And to be fair, they are all westerners. I’ll never ever trust them to depict indigenous, global south histories at any level of accuracy, diginity or respect.

      Because in the end, for many of these channels, history is just a hobby for them. It is divorced from their own realities, and as such, they never have to think about the implications of getting shit wrong.
