On November 10, 1898, white supremacists in Wilmington, North Carolina, burned down a Black-owned newspaper, unalived Black residents, and violently overthrew the city’s elected government. And the man who helped lead the mob became mayor. This wasn’t a spontaneous race riot. It was a carefully orchestrated political coup, fueled by racist propaganda, voter intimidation, and white men who couldn’t tolerate Black people having political power. And the people responsible weren’t prosecuted. They were rewarded. 128 years later, it’s time for another F*ck A** History lesson. #FuckAssHistory #WilmingtonMassacre #BlackHistory #AmericanHistory #HistoryTok

Why didn't America keep Cuba? In 1848 a US president offered Spain $100 million for it. In 1898 America won it in a war, then handed it back in 1902, keeping Guantanamo and the right to send in troops. Sixty years later, Castro took over 90 miles from Florida. Wrong choice, or did America never really let go? #history #historyfacts #StickmanTimeMachine #cuba #americanhistory

I knew Albert Einstein was a physicist. I did not know he spoke at an HBCU, supported anti-lynching efforts, stood by W.E.B. Du Bois and Paul Robeson, and had J. Edgar Hoover collecting paperwork on him for years. Seems like a pretty convenient chapter to leave out… #alberteinstein #civilrights #americanhistory #historytok #fyp

Oregon voted to prohibit slavery in 1857. Sounds great, right? Except those same voters ALSO voted to prohibit Black people from living there. And somehow, that’s not even the most fucked-up part of this story. 🫠 Welcome to Part 3 of Fuck Ass History: The Myth of the Free North. We’re talking about Oregon’s early laws threatening Black residents with WHIPPING if they refused to leave, the Black businessman who was actually expelled from the territory, and the racial exclusion clause that remained in Oregon’s constitution until 1926. Because apparently, being a “free state” didn’t necessarily mean believing Black people deserved freedom, equality, or even a place to live. And THAT is some fuck ass history. #FuckAssHistory #OregonHistory #DarkHistory #AmericanHistory #HistoryTok

🚨 A painful look at how Black Americans were treated during an era of segregation and racial discrimination in the United States. The footage shows a chapter of American history in which Black people were subjected to segregation, intimidation, violence, and discrimination simply because of the color of their skin. The Civil Rights Movement challenged that system and helped bring major legal changes — but changing the law didn't instantly erase the attitudes, inequality, and trauma built over generations. These images can be difficult to watch, but history isn't always supposed to be comfortable. How much of the past do you think still influences America today? Watch the footage. Know the history. Make your own judgment. 99 — Beyond the headlines. 🌍 #BlackHistory #AmericanHistory #CivilRights #History #Segregation
