Augustine of Hippo (modern day Algeria, Africa)



Here is a great discussion/interview with Dr Kenneth Samples by Vocab Malone about Saint Augustine of Hippo. I really enjoyed this! I only wish they had discussed Augustine's race, There is  much debate as to whether or not he was a black-skinned African. They did not really go there hard.  Vocab tried to soft-ball it by asking if he was a berber. If he was, then he would have looked nothing like a lot of the white-washed paintings of him.

Is The National Anthem Racist?

Get a load of this one.  I don't buy the argument at all. The National Anthem is part of America's shameful and racist past.
