No “Star Spangled Banner!47 Destroyed Civil Rights

And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there, O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? https://youtu.be/HezPdHTwdGA?si=YzC-S2KQrzlAytmo

Don’t Lose Hope! Fight for Civil Rights in America

She’d have been wrecked by the results of this election But she’d have poured us a drink And reminded us not to lose hope She knew her smile was all that it took https://youtu.be/Ecc0rn4Jh1Q?si=RYXGYPHQRz_EB5wL

I won’t rest until Civil Rights are Restored!

So many men seem destined To settle for something small But I won't rest until I know I'll have it all. So don't ask where I'm going Just listen when I'm gone And far away you'll hear me singing Softly to the dawn: https://youtu.be/Mdkyc686VIg?si=cpgYFGtxNn_s2M4N

Gaming the Past

People who talk and post (and some write) about historical game studies: history games as history in and out of history ed (+archaeogaming, which is awesome but not the same thing). Maintained with almost no gatekeeping by @gamingthepast.bsky.social. If it gets full, we'll do another one.
