Am I going to annoy you with this every week? Possibly.
Also, since it’s the fourth of July, I’m going to use this excuse to post a song from 1776
Here some of the Crash Course info:

There is a freethought tie-in here btw. Two big 18th century freethinkers, Thomas Paine and Mary Wollstonecraft, were abolitionists, and those wonderful anti-theists the Jacobins were a huge inspiration to the leaders of the Haitian Revolution.

In order to annoy me with these, they would have to not be awesome and addictive. So no worries there.

One of the two powerful songs in an underrated musical. Thanks for the post.
