Episode synopsis
Since the 1990s, America's classrooms have turned Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks into sacred Civil Rights icons. But what if almost everything you were taught about them was wrong? In this shocking episode, Matt Walsh dismantles the mainstream myths about the Civil Rights movement and delivers a history lesson that didn't make it into the public school textbooks. Who really funded the movement? Was it truly non-violent? Was 1950s America the racist hellscape we're told it was? What do Selma and Birmingham look like today after decades of "progress"? And did the Civil Rights Act actually help Black Americans or did it fundamentally rewrite the Constitution in ways we’re still paying for? This is The Real History of Civil Rights Part 1: A New Constitution. Watch now and discover the real history that isn't taught in school.
