Good Muslims" (companion video): https://youtu.be/M8pxIM4sW3Q
I begin with the story of Muhammad and the first 4 Caliphs. Then I explain the
Umayyad &
Abbassid Caliphates. I finish with modern colonialization of
Africa and the
Middle East, touching on the background history of ISIL. I collaborated with Tristan from 'Step Back History' to make this video, and he kindly submitted vocals for the last few minutes about
Iraq,
Syria, and ISIS.
