Ford, Cars, and a New Revolution: Crash Course History of Science #28

who is thoughtbubble

Just imagine if your boss came over unannounced to judge how you live.

Thank you.

Greenfield was what got me into history! But as a Jew from Detroit mixed feelings about the man

Car and telephone were not ivented in USA.

It's really pathetic of Ford to insist on "clean living" given that he was such a philanderer.

Ford wanted a car that was A-'Ford'-dable

It began in 1870 in the United Kingdom, and America finally overtook Britain only in the last two decades of the 50-year span.

What is with all your snide comments?

Nobody :
Hank : Henry Ford was a racist
C'mon who wasnt at that time ?

The first Industrial Revolution said that it was ramped up around 1800. It started in Britain ran on steam, trains, and factories and led more to discoveries a lot by the scientist inventors, Volta, Faraday, and Maxwell. While the second Industrial Revolution resulted from the industrialization of electricity and mass manufactoring . It happened around 1900, started in the United States, and ran on electricityran, cars, and communication technologies. As well as it will become more new in terms of raw materials, foods, goods, and other technologies that are invented.

Electricity became the lifeblood of emerging CORPORATIONS. The problem we have with cars' emission now is having a parallel problem regarding horse poop in the past. The Racal vehicles in my place now looks like the inverted quadri-cycle with a roofing. But the emergence of an automobile has changed the landscape of WORK both on the side of the owners and of the workers....

a'ford'able cars?

Um..this is interesting and all but..does it really qualify as history of science? Most of it seems to just be..history

It's a shame that this series didn't get more attention

Join a union today.

What do urban planners do?

Greenfield Village is amazing and wonderful and teaches kids and adults a lot of stuff. You shut the hell up. XD

But seriously. Such a wonderful place. I have so many good memories there. That place defines my childhood. It's like our Disney Land.

Hey thanks for not mentioning Ford's best hit "The International Jew" and how he forced every ford dealership to carry copies of it. Wouldn't want to show how concrete his beliefs were and how he abused his power after all we're just here for the science.

👍👍

Damn this series has it all! History of Science is awesome

Henry Ford is Rittenhouse🙃

Not enough Tesla! 😬

Wait, he was a racist, but he bought George Washington Carver's house and moved it to Greenfield Village?

Said "quadricycle" is an item over in britain!

hey lets inject modern leftist politics into everything

your shirt is awesome.

Some one can resume it?

Well ford did not invent it in the first place the first inventers of mass production was Carthageans, to build ship and resuplly their armada with them why they are not mentioned anywhere?
Also maybe mentioning Toyota (the biggest and most powerful car enterprize of today) about how they perfected ford line manufactoring by letting the workers to stop the line to inspect any anomaly before that anomaly produce mass scale malfunction in the produced cars to diminish manufactoring defections and waste of materials and maximizing effiency of the production and giving the workers more room to selfimprovement and belonging to the company.

So when is the next one? its been a month

要是有翻译就好了

The united states government was corupped and the americans needed work, cuz of the great despession

I really don't see why you speak in such a bad way of H. Ford, that sounds so much like the same kind of complaints people did throughout the US to destroy Columbus Statues etc... Of course nowadays a behaviour such as Ford's would be unconceivable but those were different times.

It's a bit as if we'd just mock Aristotle for believing and teaching that the Sun went round the Earth. He was a son of its time, the only thing we can do is appreciating how he managed to change his environment an bring innovation.

I don't think you had the same criticism when it came to describe other cultures hadn't you? Aren't all cultures equal? I like Crash Course because it's ironic, but you really miss the point when these things happen in your show.

muito legal

Computers don't cause industrial revolutions (not yet anyway). Only revolutions of convenience and information. Industry has to do with production.

Do you add Turkish subtitles to your videos.

Sorry but why do they delay CC Theater these days? It's very upsetting.

I thought this was history of science, not technology

A mile in 39 seconds??? That's over 90 miles per hour! Holy cow, they did that in the early 1900's?

Subtitle should be "When Science for Knowledge Was Usurped by Science for Profit"

so fuel production was there first before model T?

As a resident of Michigan, particularly the Metro Detroit area, I can confirm that Greenfield Village and The Henry Ford Museum are amazing places to visit. You need multiple days to see either. Unfortunately, much like many other influential leaders, his legacy is tarnished by his racism and classism.

Now there are 2 industrial revolutions!? I guess that's just how history works!

I'm surprised about him including George Washington Carver.
