Cleopatra was also the first pharaoh of her family that actually spoke egyptian. Cleopatra's dynasty of rulers (the ptolemies) were greek and they refused to learn egyptian, as this language was associated with poor people. They only spoke greek, as this was the noble language; all laws were written in greek and then translated to egyptian. Cleopatra was the first pharaoh of her dynasty to actually learn egyptian. She did care for the poor people and the people loved her back. She was a very charismatic leader. It is a shame that she was the last egyptian pharaoh ever. The ones before her didn't care as much as she did.
@@fallonharp she knew that if people do not like her there will be a revolt. Also she knew that when a country has rulers of foreign blood that came in and conquer the land, the rulers must try extra hard to improve the wellbeing of the local population, because otherwise the poor people will hate the rich foreigner rulers. And that she did. She improved the quality of life and wellbeing of her subjects. Local egyptians were convinced she is the reincarnation of the egyptian goddess isis. She was a very smart and capable leader.
it BLOWS MY MIND that she knew twelve languages. TWELVE???? learning just _one_ language gets way harder beyond the age of 5 - i have to wonder how much she learned in childhood and how much came later! she's incredible either way!!!!
I'm a STEM student and, let me tell you, science isn't any better. The amount of contributions female scientists have made, yet have not been credited for, is insane!
I used to hate being named Joan, but now I enjoy it because hearing Bailey say "Joan, you look cute!" just brightened my day even though I know she was talking to a stuffed crow.
Cleopatra is extremely fascinating. She was not just a pharaoh. She was a mathematician, scientist, created makeup (used charcoal for eyeliner for medical reasons and taught her people about the safe uses of charcoal as eye makeup) She was thought as a magical beauty BUT no one actually knows what she even looks like because when Augustus won the war, he made it a point to erase her image completely which included removing coins that had her face on them. She was even a great leader in war and fought in the front lines with her army. Insane!! ❤
She was indeed incredible - can you imagine this fierce woman at the front line of an Egyptian army? The Romans, professional as they were, still might have been a bit freaked out! Of course, because we can't have anything nice, Rome took Egypt from her - which, figures.
This felt so satisfying, Bailey standing up for fellow women. it’s what I have noticed as well in private and professional life that women get judged more harshly on things. It’s ridiculous.
Bailey, you should do a Dark History about the history of powerful female pirates like Grace O'Malley, Ann Bonny, Mary Read, Zheng Yi Sao, and Rachel Wall and how men tried to erase their stories from history. Can't have badass women running the world, after all.🙄
😁I LOVE PIRATES AND I VOUCH YES FOR THIS ALSO!!! Gurl, I want to go to the library now and find some information myself. Thanks for the inspo!!!🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️♥️🙏
marie antoinette is a big one, soooo much unfounded rumours went around and even her ‘let them eat cake’ line that made her so infamous didn’t even happen and the entirety of france blamed her for king louis’ mistakes, you could do a whole video about it
@@mariama1735 Poor Joan was most likely schizophrenic and heard voices. So sad. I bet she never could have have imagined that people would still be talking about her 600 years later!
Bailey PLEASE do a series! Of all the Dark Histories (Herstories?), I love this one best. I am your 67 year old geriatric fangirl and your videos brighten my day!🥰
@@hospitalcakewalkIts Janet Jackson though she holds her famous seat pretty well lol 🤣Idk if she admitted to it or not but I feel that would be mighty silly of her.
Family and I watched that Janet documentary series that recently came out and the thing that was the saddest about that incident was that she wasn’t angry at Justin and she didn’t want him to receive any backlash or hate so she never said anything and supported him going to award shows when she was banned. Even recently when people were calling him out on it she posted a video saying that she forgave him and that they’re friends. She was too kind, and just for media to shame and cancel her. Bless her heart and soul. 💔
I’m from Chattanooga and this gave me new life to love my city because I’m ready to go to AT&T field and be like “Jackie ruined babe Ruth’s ego in this city”.
So, my favorite part is that when "nipplegate" happened everyone lost their minds and janet was destroyed. Yet, nobody complained about the thousands of instant replays on the news and entertainment outlets for the entire week following.
And it's the whole reason why this very video platform even exists today! The original creators of UA-cam were trying unsuccessfully to find these images of Janet online. So they built UA-cam. Amazing how often titillation motivates technological developments
This reminds me of when a man cheats, the woman goes after the other girl and not her man (vice versa for men) lol. I'm sick of deep double standards...whether this is turning the cheek to misbehaving males or ignoring male abuse victims...it goes both ways.
It’s something so deeply ingrained in women as well. I remember being so mad at the girl that my ex cheated with but not as angry at him. I hate that we all have some level of internalised misogyny
I think there's a feeling of "sisterhood" where you feel betrayed that another woman could do that to you. It's totally misplaced, but that's the only thing I can think of that makes sense.
I love how “they” call women “delicate” yet it’s the men that can’t handle losing to a woman or a woman being a better leader. I’ve had a guy tell me woman can’t be in charge of the country or world because we do everything off emotions. 🤦🏻♀️ I have no problem talking about all the bad anyone does but I can’t and won’t believe someone just because they are a woman. I need as much proof from women and I want from men to believe them.
Tell him that Australia and Germany have lady leaders. And when Australia had the attack on a Synagogue that killed people, she immediately banned all assault rifles of any kind! She didn't have to go through a bunch of grumpy old men who refuse to give up their power to do it either! We do a much better job than they do!
I feel that men, specifically those in positions of power tend to be far more emotional than most women I know. It’s almost though like they don’t count things like anger, jealousy, and those kinds of emotions as actual emotions if you are aggressive when you have them. Which to me is far more dangerous for a leader to be than anyone on their period ever could be.
@@grandcatsmama3421 Arden is NZ’s prime minister, but yes she got to the root of the problem quick after the Christchurch shooting. She also handled the pandemic far more skillfully than any male leader.
You should really do an episode about Cecilia Payne and the women who mapped the stars. Williamina Flemming, Antonia Maury, Annie Jump Cannon, and Henrietta Leavitt. They all made incredible leaps and discoveries in astronomy and never got recognition for their works during their lifetimes. Many of them still aren't credited for their discoveries in scientific forums. It's really tragic.
Okay so I knew about Cleopatra, Catherine (especially since watching The Great and being inspired to read all about Catherine), and Yoko but I have never heard of Jackie. Jackie was a badass. Thanks Bailey, I don't watch baseball so I don't think that I would have ever heard of her if it wasn't for your video.
I can't imagine anyone calling Yoko Ono mainstream! But I had never heard of Jackie; that says everything. Striking out Ruth and Gehrig in succession at 17! Talk about erasure. Thank you for a spicy and informative DH session, and tell Joan her costumes were awesome.
You make Jon and Yoko's marriage sound so lovely. Wish that were true. Yoko kept him away from his first son. His first son and his mother were on welfare during this time. And Jon brought other women home at night and told Yoko to deal with it. It was far from light and roses
My heart broke and still breaks for Julian, John's rejected son. At one time he confided in Paul- this kid was in so much pain because of his father and Yoko, that Paul wrote a song for Julian. It was called Hey, Jude. Imagine a child being rejected andshunned by the one person who was supposed to nurture, love and care for him. ❤️Julian❤️
Audrey Hepburn, above all, was a lovely person, a great lady, who underwent great hardship but never stopped being great to people. And it was not, I think, false, like many famous people who have a great reputation.
i had a history teacher ask “who thinks yoko broke up the beatles?” and i shook my head and she challenged me on it and i said i just think people blame her and it’s misogynistic. professor was embarrassed and said she was just kidding
Tbh I don't really like the Beatles, but I always thought John brought her in as an honorary member, she wanted more control after being on a song and her bad singing and bad ideas broke them up. At least that's the rumor I've always heard floating around, I was never sure how true it was.
@@MsStealYourDadAndMom this is so untrue. but you know that you could have just googled it. instead you continue to spread a flat out lie. what is your motivation?
Loved this! I know you already covered an Egyptian pharaoh but before Cleo there was another really famous female pharaoh (and the first official female pharaoh) named Hatshepsut, she presented herself in a masculine way in paintings and statues in order to maintain the authority given to pharoahs (who were all male before her), her rule was one of the most prosperous in their entire history, and the successor she had been gearing up to leave things to ended up trying to erase her from history by smashing temples and statues of hers, but it didn't work because we still know about her today. Before her there were queens who ruled Egypt like Nefertiti but Hatshepsut was the first to assume the title of pharaoh. She's really cool and I'd recommend anyone who's interested in Cleo to check her out! (Not me calling her Cleo as if she's my bestie 💀)
Hatshepsut wasn’t the first female pharaoh. And Nefertiti came after her. And while her successor, or more likely her successor’s successor, did attack her monuments and images, that was just increase his own legitimacy for ruling. It wasn’t anything malicious.
THIS is exactly what we are supposed to be doing right now. Uncovering the deception around these matters. Learning the truth. Bringing light and justice to the darkness that has surrounded us throughout history. My heart bleeds for these women. Thank you so much for this, Bailey. You have chosen a most honorable profession. ♥
When I was a kid back in mid 70s, I was the first girl to play on in all-boys league. I was 10 and loved playing baseball. But they would not let play beyond little league. I joined the Air Force and wanted to fly planes, was told no, as it wasn't suitable for girls. I'm happy to see that women's accomplishments are starting to be recognized, but we're still 2nd class citizens. I love that you brought up these women and showed their true accomplishments.
I got told by an interviewer for a job he wouldn't hire me because I needed to stay home with my kids. I was a single mother of 3 with no child support...............how am I supposed to feed them then? I didn't turn him in, who would believe me? I just went elsewhere.
@@MF-Dog-Mom yeah, when I went through the Air Force in late 80s, it was a no go for anything other than transport planes, I wanted to fly the fast stuff. I can guarantee the new Top Gun movie coming out will not show women flying the jets, even though they can now.
@@Rabbithavenstitchery sorry that happened to you. If it had been me with my smart mouth, I would have said,"So, you volunteering to be my sugar daddy? Because if that's what the only thing you think a women is qualified to do, then I need someone to feed my 3 kids, because they're daddy is not doing it". Not saying that it is in your case, so please don't take it that way.😊
To be fair to Lou, when he heard when Jackie was going to be banned, he swore (and Lou did not swear, usually) and told the rest of Murderers Row that he'd lost all respect for the Commissioner. There's even a rumour that they exchanged Christmas cards.
I'm in bed with COVID and recently been dumped. Bailey I genuinely smiled when I saw you uploaded and covering some pretty epic women, we needed this. ❤️
I Hope you feel all better very soon! COVID’s a nightmare. I wish it would go away. I had it back in December, and I’m 15 but it felt like I was dying. It was a nightmare. Sending Peace, Love, and prayers to you friends ❤️
Speaking of women, the women of the 1916 rising in Ireland are the underrated hero’s, and not just in 1916 or the troubles, but the women who tried to pass on Irish culture to their children while risking death.
Same with the greek women who played a central part in 1940 greek resistance against nazis in world war 2, during the years of german occupation of greece. Noone talks about them, noone knows about them. Sacrifice without recognition.
@@turanskamiska you unfortunately can’t really - their story aren’t documented We just know them through word of mouth/stories in Northern Ireland - older women tell their stories to keep their Legacy alive
@@Laurensji I wish Bailey would talk about the Irish slaves that were kidnapped and forced to work in America. People don't want to talk about that part of history, ever.
BAILEY please make this a series!! You need a day where you just talk about one woman's story or even a few like you did here, especially the ones who have been diluted throughout history! I absolutely loved every minute of this episode and your side commentary is to DIE for! Please consider it! I think a lot of us would agree! Only if you feel up to it of course! I don't want to take away from any of MM&M or DH!
I love the way you said “what an entrance” at the beginning. Your eyes were glittering with admiration. It seemed like you really wanted to talk about those woman and that they were inspiring to you. Talk about things that make you happy Bailey!
I’m only five minutes in, and thank you for doing this video. Just bringing to light the example of Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake it was perfect. Sad part is is that when will society stop blaming women for men’s actions?
If you dont know, you should really look into the story of Zheng Yi Sao, she was the most successful pirate ever recorded and was brutal! Great story a lot of people dont know
Another woman that doesn’t get enough credit is Hilma af Klint! She was the original abstract artist, a few years before Vassily Kandinsky and Mondrian (who receive all the credit for abstraction). I learned about this from my female art professors!
I LOVE her work, speaking of female artists that don't get enough recognition - Leonard Carrington, she was labeled as a surrealist but she's so much more than that. I swear her art is sigils.
Since im a 2000's kid i never familiarized myself with the Beatles and the whole Yoko Ono drama, i had always heard of people criticizing her but never understood why but also didnt bother to look it up myself. I was shocked to hear her true story and the false accusations thrown at her.... I would absolutely love to hear more stories like these women's to set their records straight
Ancient Egypt is my guilty pleasure I constantly watch documentaries on ancient Egypt. You could do so many dark history episodes on ancient Egypt cause there are so many cool things about ancient civilizations
Same. I actually named the feral mama cat that had kittens under my deck Cleopatra (aka Cleo) because she is a great leader and keeps all of the males in line. They all also love her. She just happens to be quite a beautiful Manx cat, too. Even though I caught her and got her spayed, she's still the ruler of this street. Osiris and Horus (as well as the others) know their place.
Bailey, girl, we live in the 21. century and I get judged by at least 2-3 guys in EVERY new ward I go to, because SuRgErY iSn’T a WoMeN’s pRofEssIoN and I should pick something easier. Milder. I’m a woman after all. Shame.
Well , I’m sorry to hear that but it’s not like that here where I come from and women are applauded just like men would be . Hope It changes though and gets better for women .
You're likely smarter than them to even land a job like that being female just saying. In fact, it's less intelligent of the men to say barbaric things like that.
And yet statistics show women are better surgeons, because their patients all receive the same level of care. Men actually are more likely to mis perform during surgery on women or even more likely to let women patients die.
There is a missing girl, 26 years old, and she was missing in a very strange way. When her mother went to look for her, the policemen and the FBI were not cooperative, on the contrary, they wanted to hide the evidence, and even the lawyers were rejecting this case, and they also found the remains of the bones of this girl, but not complete. The skull was separated from the spine, and they did not find the whole bones, and the details of the story are very shocking. We want justice for this girl, Jawaher Al-Hajji.
Thank you for this video, Bailey. I really hated how Justin got off scotfree, meanwhile Janet Jackson had to deal with all the backlash. He never even stood up for her and remained silent like the coward he is. It made me look at him differently.
Thank you for bringing attention to Cleopatra’s true history! I was named after her so I grew up doing lots of research on her. She was an intelligent and charismatic leader for sure.
Most everyone knows the play Hamilton. Eliza is portrayed as a home wife and can't possibly compare to Angelica when it comes to beauty, social circles, or intelligence. Fun fact, the line about the letters Hamilton wrote for the federalist papers...a significant portion of them were written in Eliza's hand writing and it was said that she was given credit for Alexander's status in treasury, as she was behind the scenes organizing and taking on large portions of that responsibility.
If not for Bailey, I'd have always thought that Cleopatra was just another beautiful women who was craved by men because that's all that's there in the books I've read about Cleopatra
She wasn't even an especially "beautiful" woman per se, she's just been written that way in history because people couldn't fathom that her intellect and charisma were what influenced so many important men and that the factor of ethereal beauty thus HAD to have been what caused it
I learned about Cleopatra from other people, first by the princess diary series I read as a kid and then from UA-cam channels such as overly sarcastic. Though I like how Bailey talks about the topic I found it strange she didn’t mention that Cleopatra actually killed herself because Octavian planned it humiliate her and she didn’t want to give him that satisfaction. One of the ways Octavian wrote slander against Cleopatra was commissioning Virgil to write The Aeneid.
I'm so happy you included Yoko in this. She really was just living her dream, then fell in love with a man that had the same frustrations with the world. He just happened to be more famous.
@@jennyveile thank you. I cannot stand Yoko, and I don’t care at all about whether she broke up the Beatles or not. Julian did not deserve his fathers childish and selfish treatment and he was more mature than Yoko when he was a child.
You need to do a story on this lady. "Mother Jones Mother JonesTypically clad in a black dress, her face framed by a lace collar and black hat, the barely five-foot tall Mother Jones was a fearless fighter for workers’ rights-once labeled "the most dangerous woman in America" by a U.S. district attorney. Mary Harris "Mother" Jones."
Yes please make this a series!! I’d love to hear about more women who society has hushed or down played!! Thanks Bailey and team- amazing as always!! 💖
I remember one time being in a drive thru at in n out and I was sitting behind this car with some man driving it and it was plastered in Beatles tribute bumper stickers. Which wouldn’t be weird, except that he very specifically had a bumper sticker that was anti-Yoko (I think it was like her name with a crossed out circle over it or something) and directly below that was a sticker that had a quote from the notoriously post-Beatles era John Lennon song “Imagine”. The irony was too painful. The amount of hate Yoko gets from people who are obsessed with John Lennon and his hippy worldview, it makes no sense.
@@ilisten2thecureandcry yeah. John's treatment of his own son is disgusting ! He seems to have been a real zealot. I doubt that many of us would have actually liked him.
Yoko Ono is amazing, coming from an art school, we have always spoken highly of her works and never mentioned the men in her life. It’s great that you’ve covered her here because she’s so much more than what people have been saying about her
This is so fitting and we as women need to start supporting each other the same way the men of the world do !! Thank you Bailey for sharing knowledge!!
Dark history is legit the only way I know it's Thursday some weeks lol xD Thank you Bailey, for not only the history lessons but also reminding me what day it is💜
It's ironic that women would be described as "too delicate" to play a sport when in reality the only thing that was too delicate was the ego of a man. I think it is getting better because women don't have to rely on what men decide to tell the world about them - we have social media and we can report on our own awesomeness and tell the stories of our fellow strong women.
You might want to check out A League of Their Own 👌 "see how it works is... the train moves, not the station" still one of my all time favourite movie quotes.
Amen Bailey, amen! I literally just saw a video yesterday titled something like, Cleopatra as one of the most evil queens in history. I clicked on it quizzically because I could think of worse female rulers and men by the dozens. I was left with more respect for her after watching than before and never once did I think she was "evil". It all comes down to women trying to survive (without a man) pictured as evil ie think back to Lilith and Eve. For wanting to have a choice in their lives. I can't believe history is so biased. I used to think history was a matter-of-fact, but in reality it's just the story written by those in power who wish to keep that power.
I have to be honest, I'm proud that I was lucky enough to learn the real history of Cathrine the Great and Cleopatra. Cathrine, my 10th grade history teacher was big feminist so I learned the whole story! Also, at age 10 I remember I had to do a history report so I saw a book on Cleopatra and read it front to back. She was so cool! I know a lot of people aren't that lucky so I'm thankful I got to learn this.
Hetshepsut was already covered by Puppet History on Watcher's UA-cam channel around 2 years ago. The crew behind that UA-cam channel are the guys from Buzzfeed~
Hello bailey! Since we know that you are telling everyone about crimes in an honest way ....we were hoping that you will cover the story of a girl named jawaher haji ....her mother is soo heartbroken because the police didn't want to help her in the case in a proper way ....so please help us to rise our voices to the people who can help ....but it all start with you!💜 So much love!💜
I will cover this too if it helps get it out there to people who can help. Thats what these channels should be about. I feel so sorry for her poor mother it really is unthinkable.
Our girl Joan is just the sassiest! Gotta love her! And oh my, I love Bailey's Dark History. So interesting, so very well told and with so much passion for those history did wrong!
I wait for Dark History every Thursday to brighten my day! Bailey, you make this series Brilliant!!! I have been a Subscriber for day 1! Sending Love ❤️ 😍
This both fascinated and infuriated me,,, how great was Catherine, they could do with her now, men have always been terrified of women and our strength,,, we still have along way to go, As usual brilliantly told Bailey ❤️🇮🇪
Absolutely love this, Bailey 💖I'd love if you could do some research into Mileva Marić. Einstein has always been one of my heros, but looking back, his most ground breaking work came out when he was with her and they were both students in the same school (which she had to be brilliant to even be in that school as a woman).
Hello bailey! Since we know that you are telling everyone about crimes in an honest way .... we were hoping that you will cover the story of a girl named Jawaher haji .... her mother is soo heartbroken because the police didn't want to help her in the case in a proper way .... so please help us to rise our voices to the people who can help .... but it all start with you! So much love! 💕
I think there are many cases like this. Its a little unfair to Bailey, to say "it all starts with you." It really puts the pressure on her. If she doesn't do the story, you'll think she doesn't care. I'm sure she does. But as I said, there are soo many sad stories out there, and Bailey is only one woman.
You should also contact Ashley Flowers of Crime Junkies podcast. She’s known for giving the facts and even interviews families of victims of crimes. Honest story teller also.
She's still a really awful person though. She has absolutely erased John's eldest son even going as far as to sell off all of John's guitars that she didn't want to keep rather than gift any of them to Julian, Julian then had to buy back anything that he wanted to keep from his father. And not for cheap I might add.
@@kiki29073 that's valid. I definitely care why the beatles broke up because they're my favourite band so I like to know about them but in the grand scheme of things if she was the true cause of the break up that wouldn't be the worst thing she's done. I dislike her more because of her actions towards Julian and his mother.
@@louuanneeestrewp6189 I was wondering how Yoko Ono made the roster when there were so many outstanding women, Yoko was a subpar artist, AND a genuinely nasty person.
I’ve been listening to this podcast at work every day and now I’m caught up and waiting for the video versions to come out to watch again 😂😂 love you Bailey! Thanks for all your hard work!
Ur right ...it is gross...how women are portrayed and ignored for their accomplishments!! I had only heard really negative stuff about Yoko ono🖤so sad!!!! I looove this series Bailey!!! Thank you🖤btw ur hair looks gorgeous..bug love to all x
I love your channel, I've been following since COVID started when you were just doing MMMM. I only have ONE suggestion- do NOT blame teachers for not being able to teach you these things. I am a teacher and trust me, I wish nothing more than to have awesome discussions and research projects that report like you do- FACTS. However, the curriculum is dictated to us. It is hard, so hard to have any creative freedom. Make a video about it. About how education ended up in the dumpster in America. We didn't teach you these things because we aren't allowed to. I would love to see a video told by you in which you explain how we ended up with the pipeline system. How education policy is more corrupt than many people imagine.
I'm also an educator and I agree. Research educational figures throughout history, court cases, and the origins of laws around education and you'll see how we ended up where we are. Spoiler alert: we are not trying to teach controversial topics to your 5-year-old.
I had a friend who was a teacher in Guatemala. Same thing. He actually deviated from the curriculum, and when they finally caught him, they fired him. He just refused to conform at that point. Now he’s broke and so desperate, to the point that we had a problem that ended our friendship 12 years ago, yet, he just wrote me a few weeks ago, without even asking how I was or apologizing for what he did; just to ask me for $200. It must be rock bottom for him to ask me of all people.
It's interesting hearing your perspective on Yoko. It's obvious how much John Loved Yoko! He Adored Her. That's All that matters. The music that she and Sean inspired was Beautiful. Double Fantasy is a wonderful Album. I never understood all the negative stories and press about her. Understand, I was a Senior in High School when Double Fantasy came out. I grew up with The Beatles. We weren't meant to know the Real Yoko. I admire her for standing her ground and doing right by his Memory. I bet she's a pretty Cool Lady.
I could be wrong but part of the Yoko hate might have to do with her being Asian. People would rather blame her for the Beatles break-up than creative differences between band members.
The universe as we know it was mapped by a group of women! They were known as "The Harvard observatory computers". The director quoted his maid could do better then some of the scientists on his team, hence how the group was started.
Sadly those women were basically used. Edward Pickering Employing woman staffers was an economic decision rather than an ethical one, as a woman could be hired at 25 to 50 cents per hour - half of what a man would have to be paid.
@@chesterbrooks3606 Absolutely they were used. But they did make a big statement in Science. Along with many other women we've washed from our history books.
I live and work in Chattanooga, and it is SO cool to hear Bailey tell the story about Jackie! Thank you babe! You definitely made my night! Chattanooga is a beautiful area. If y’all haven’t been, you should definitely consider a visit!
Cleopatra was also the first pharaoh of her family that actually spoke egyptian.

The ones before her didn't care as much as she did.
Cool to know that
Wow I didn’t know that! That’s amazing shows she was a true leader. And she seemed more humble then most rulers 😂
The devil is a lie.
@@fallonharp she knew that if people do not like her there will be a revolt. Also she knew that when a country has rulers of foreign blood that came in and conquer the land, the rulers must try extra hard to improve the wellbeing of the local population, because otherwise the poor people will hate the rich foreigner rulers. And that she did. She improved the quality of life and wellbeing of her subjects. Local egyptians were convinced she is the reincarnation of the egyptian goddess isis. She was a very smart and capable leader.
it BLOWS MY MIND that she knew twelve languages. TWELVE???? learning just _one_ language gets way harder beyond the age of 5 - i have to wonder how much she learned in childhood and how much came later! she's incredible either way!!!!
I'm a STEM student and, let me tell you, science isn't any better. The amount of contributions female scientists have made, yet have not been credited for, is insane!
Ahem...Rosalind Franklin.
Then some guys try to act like women haven't contributed much to society

Ada Lovelace anyone?
I used to hate being named Joan, but now I enjoy it because hearing Bailey say "Joan, you look cute!" just brightened my day even though I know she was talking to a stuffed crow.
I love that name! Had a friend named Joan, we'd always call her Joanie. Always that it was adorable
Joan is a beautiful name!! So many fascinating women have been named Joan :)
Joan is a beautiful name. I think of classy, well dressed and wealthy ladies when I hear “Joan”💖
My favorite singer is named Joan!
Hey, Joan? You look super-cute today, too!
Cleopatra is extremely fascinating. She was not just a pharaoh. She was a mathematician, scientist, created makeup (used charcoal for eyeliner for medical reasons and taught her people about the safe uses of charcoal as eye makeup) She was thought as a magical beauty BUT no one actually knows what she even looks like because when Augustus won the war, he made it a point to erase her image completely which included removing coins that had her face on them. She was even a great leader in war and fought in the front lines with her army. Insane!! ❤
She was indeed incredible - can you imagine this fierce woman at the front line of an Egyptian army? The Romans, professional as they were, still might have been a bit freaked out! Of course, because we can't have anything nice, Rome took Egypt from her - which, figures.
Now I want to become a Cleopatra expert thank you
Arsinoe, just saying.
Cleopatra lived closer to the moon landing than the creation of the pyramids. It's insane😍🥰
She was a redhead and of macedonian decent :) Thats very well known.
This felt so satisfying, Bailey standing up for fellow women.
it’s what I have noticed as well in private and professional life that women get judged more harshly on things. It’s ridiculous.

Bailey, you should do a Dark History about the history of powerful female pirates like Grace O'Malley, Ann Bonny, Mary Read, Zheng Yi Sao, and Rachel Wall and how men tried to erase their stories from history. Can't have badass women running the world, after all.🙄
Great idea! 💡

Not to mention all the Roman gladiators they thought were only men until female archeologists came on the scene and were like, Um actually….
Viking warriors, and Celtic Queens, too.
Bailey! Cleopatra definitely deserves her own episode 😩
marie antoinette is a big one, soooo much unfounded rumours went around and even her ‘let them eat cake’ line that made her so infamous didn’t even happen and the entirety of france blamed her for king louis’ mistakes, you could do a whole video about it
theres an episode on "you're wrong about" podcast about her that i just listened to recently!
Speaking of France, Joan of Arc is also a big one
@@mariama1735 Poor Joan was most likely schizophrenic and heard voices. So sad. I bet she never could have have imagined that people would still be talking about her 600 years later!
For real that’s who I guessed
Bailey PLEASE do a series! Of all the Dark Histories (Herstories?), I love this one best. I am your 67 year old geriatric fangirl and your videos brighten my day!🥰
This is so sweet. I hope you have a wonderful day
Geriatric? LoL, easy Girlfriend! I’m 1 step behind you @ 61! I love Bailey too! She makes my day! 🤪🥰💜👵🏼
I learned Atleast 3-4 new facts about each women she spoke about. Bailey is the best teacher I’ve ever had (the funniest, too)

Bailey addressing the Janet Jackson debacle 🥹🤌🏼✨ as a long time fan and former Janet employee, you hit the nail on the head! 💕
The way Janet Jackson was treated after that debacle was insane.
I hate that she was the one that took all the heat for what happened.
Former Janet employee? Oooooo!!! (👈🏼 said in a Bailey squeal). Way cool!
It was her idea, she even admitted that! Her career was dying, she was old and she wanted attention.
@@hospitalcakewalkIts Janet Jackson though she holds her famous seat pretty well lol 🤣Idk if she admitted to it or not but I feel that would be mighty silly of her.
Who else is absolutely loving Bailey's hair today?
My Thursday are not complete without Dark History thanks
shes too cute!
90s hair goals
Really wana put my hair in some pig tails now
@@aleksandralempart8305 Most definitely!
Family and I watched that Janet documentary series that recently came out and the thing that was the saddest about that incident was that she wasn’t angry at Justin and she didn’t want him to receive any backlash or hate so she never said anything and supported him going to award shows when she was banned. Even recently when people were calling him out on it she posted a video saying that she forgave him and that they’re friends. She was too kind, and just for media to shame and cancel her. Bless her heart and soul. 💔
Jackie’s story was new for me. I NEVER knew that happened, what a queen.
Same I had never heard of her either!
Same
Same
I learned about after watching the movie “A League of there Own”. After that I went down the rabbit hole of women and history!
I’m from Chattanooga and this gave me new life to love my city because I’m ready to go to AT&T field and be like “Jackie ruined babe Ruth’s ego in this city”.
So, my favorite part is that when "nipplegate" happened everyone lost their minds and janet was destroyed. Yet, nobody complained about the thousands of instant replays on the news and entertainment outlets for the entire week following.
And it's the whole reason why this very video platform even exists today! The original creators of UA-cam were trying unsuccessfully to find these images of Janet online. So they built UA-cam. Amazing how often titillation motivates technological developments
Exactly!!
LITERALLY THOUGH 🙄
@@tabularasa have I just made a full circle in UA-cam 😂 I didn’t know this but not surprised
@@tabularasa wait what? UA-cam was created in 2005, for the creators to share videos they took at a party.
We need a series of women who go unrecognized for their accomplishments. This would be amazing 🥺
Yoko doing her iconic weird cackle into the microphone whilst Chuck Berry and John Lennon were trying to jam will forever haunt my mind
This reminds me of when a man cheats, the woman goes after the other girl and not her man (vice versa for men) lol. I'm sick of deep double standards...whether this is turning the cheek to misbehaving males or ignoring male abuse victims...it goes both ways.
It’s something so deeply ingrained in women as well. I remember being so mad at the girl that my ex cheated with but not as angry at him. I hate that we all have some level of internalised misogyny
@@queefmince strongly agree, still unlearning it.
….pssttttt….it’s because these people are emotionally invested in the partner……
@@emilyearl1858 I'm sure they're aware of thatt but that doesn't make it anymore reasonable or productive
I think there's a feeling of "sisterhood" where you feel betrayed that another woman could do that to you. It's totally misplaced, but that's the only thing I can think of that makes sense.
I love how “they” call women “delicate” yet it’s the men that can’t handle losing to a woman or a woman being a better leader. I’ve had a guy tell me woman can’t be in charge of the country or world because we do everything off emotions. 🤦🏻♀️
I have no problem talking about all the bad anyone does but I can’t and won’t believe someone just because they are a woman. I need as much proof from women and I want from men to believe them.
ExClty!!!! Men are emotional choosing to stay in anger and resentment themselves!
Many countries have had woman leaders and have had or still have president and prime minister that are women.
Tell him that Australia and Germany have lady leaders. And when Australia had the attack on a Synagogue that killed people, she immediately banned all assault rifles of any kind! She didn't have to go through a bunch of grumpy old men who refuse to give up their power to do it either! We do a much better job than they do!
I feel that men, specifically those in positions of power tend to be far more emotional than most women I know. It’s almost though like they don’t count things like anger, jealousy, and those kinds of emotions as actual emotions if you are aggressive when you have them. Which to me is far more dangerous for a leader to be than anyone on their period ever could be.
@@grandcatsmama3421 Arden is NZ’s prime minister, but yes she got to the root of the problem quick after the Christchurch shooting. She also handled the pandemic far more skillfully than any male leader.
You should really do an episode about Cecilia Payne and the women who mapped the stars. Williamina Flemming, Antonia Maury, Annie Jump Cannon, and Henrietta Leavitt. They all made incredible leaps and discoveries in astronomy and never got recognition for their works during their lifetimes. Many of them still aren't credited for their discoveries in scientific forums. It's really tragic.
I don't know these names and I would like to know them!
Can we all agree that these videos are never disappointing ❤️
Agreed. ✨
Yes! Literally N E V E R!!!!! And they are sensitive and kind unlike many!
Never. Ever.
Bailey is the best 👌💓
ALWAYS never disappointed
Okay so I knew about Cleopatra, Catherine (especially since watching The Great and being inspired to read all about Catherine), and Yoko but I have never heard of Jackie. Jackie was a badass. Thanks Bailey, I don't watch baseball so I don't think that I would have ever heard of her if it wasn't for your video.
I find Jackie's story so full of double standards. Babe Ruth struck out just as much as he hit.
Yoko had an affair with Hillary Clinton
@@christinedelman887 so...what has that got to do with anything?
I can't imagine anyone calling Yoko Ono mainstream! But I had never heard of Jackie; that says everything. Striking out Ruth and Gehrig in succession at 17! Talk about erasure. Thank you for a spicy and informative DH session, and tell Joan her costumes were awesome.
You make Jon and Yoko's marriage sound so lovely. Wish that were true. Yoko kept him away from his first son. His first son and his mother were on welfare during this time. And Jon brought other women home at night and told Yoko to deal with it. It was far from light and roses
Oh FFS WOMEN CANNOT KEEP MEN FROM THEIR CHILDREN. YOU ARE BLUBBERING INTERNIZED MISOGYNY. GET HELP.
Honestly was looking for this comment yoko was a pos woman and John was no better
I simply can't stand her! She can't sing, and she was a horrible influence on Jon.
Yoko was and is yucko. Ask Paul, Yoko played a big role in the Beatles breakup. Plus, she kept John from his first son Julian.
My heart broke and still breaks for Julian, John's rejected son. At one time he confided in Paul- this kid was in so much pain because of his father and Yoko, that Paul wrote a song for Julian. It was called Hey, Jude. Imagine a child being rejected andshunned by the one person who was supposed to nurture, love and care for him. ❤️Julian❤️
Thank you, Bailey, for reminding us that wise, powerful, resourceful and successful women have been seen as threats to men since... forever 😂
..... And we all whispered AQUATOUFANA.......
Rosalind Franklin episode when?
Except yoko and your mom never did?

Can you PLEASE do a part 2 & feature Medusa’s story… it’s so messed up!! & the men who CAUSED everything were overlooked
See that depends on what region of Greece as every region has a different version of the mythos.
but... Medusa isn't a real person??? WDYM?
Agreed! Medusa's study is tragic..very unfair how she was portrayed
@@wickedkat5061 are you slow?
@ct Medusa was not a real person. All of the ladies mentioned in this video were real people. If you believe otherwise I am ready to hear you out.
It’s sad how easily rumors can ruin accomplishments and still happen to this day.
just goes to show how much you see is true
Only for women though. Because everyone loves to hate a woman apparently
Also Audrey Hepburn. She did many incredible things with her life, and she is mostly just remembered for being pretty.
And Hedy Lamarr too. She literally created WiFi. And yet she's remembered for being a Hollywood star.
her time during world war 2 is also fascinating!
Audrey Hepburn, above all, was a lovely person, a great lady, who underwent great hardship but never stopped being great to people. And it was not, I think, false, like many famous people who have a great reputation.
I was amazed to find out Paris Hilton is actually an amazing woman and human.
i had a history teacher ask “who thinks yoko broke up the beatles?” and i shook my head and she challenged me on it and i said i just think people blame her and it’s misogynistic. professor was embarrassed and said she was just kidding
Right? As if someone who wasn't even in the band had more control over the band than the actual members did.
Tbh I don't really like the Beatles, but I always thought John brought her in as an honorary member, she wanted more control after being on a song and her bad singing and bad ideas broke them up. At least that's the rumor I've always heard floating around, I was never sure how true it was.
@@MsStealYourDadAndMom probably not true at all
Saying she was a talented artist, is a far stretch.
@@MsStealYourDadAndMom this is so untrue. but you know that you could have just googled it. instead you continue to spread a flat out lie. what is your motivation?
Loved this! I know you already covered an Egyptian pharaoh but before Cleo there was another really famous female pharaoh (and the first official female pharaoh) named Hatshepsut, she presented herself in a masculine way in paintings and statues in order to maintain the authority given to pharoahs (who were all male before her), her rule was one of the most prosperous in their entire history, and the successor she had been gearing up to leave things to ended up trying to erase her from history by smashing temples and statues of hers, but it didn't work because we still know about her today. Before her there were queens who ruled Egypt like Nefertiti but Hatshepsut was the first to assume the title of pharaoh. She's really cool and I'd recommend anyone who's interested in Cleo to check her out! (Not me calling her Cleo as if she's my bestie 💀)
Hatshepsut wasn’t the first female pharaoh. And Nefertiti came after her. And while her successor, or more likely her successor’s successor, did attack her monuments and images, that was just increase his own legitimacy for ruling. It wasn’t anything malicious.
Actually could we get a dark history of Lucille Ball and Dezi Arnez? I think that would be so compelling coming from you.
Facts!
THIS is exactly what we are supposed to be doing right now. Uncovering the deception around these matters. Learning the truth. Bringing light and justice to the darkness that has surrounded us throughout history. My heart bleeds for these women. Thank you so much for this, Bailey. You have chosen a most honorable profession. ♥
When I was a kid back in mid 70s, I was the first girl to play on in all-boys league. I was 10 and loved playing baseball. But they would not let play beyond little league. I joined the Air Force and wanted to fly planes, was told no, as it wasn't suitable for girls. I'm happy to see that women's accomplishments are starting to be recognized, but we're still 2nd class citizens. I love that you brought up these women and showed their true accomplishments.
There are women pilots in the Air Force who were born in the mid 70s
I got told by an interviewer for a job he wouldn't hire me because I needed to stay home with my kids. I was a single mother of 3 with no child support...............how am I supposed to feed them then? I didn't turn him in, who would believe me? I just went elsewhere.
@@MF-Dog-Mom yeah, when I went through the Air Force in late 80s, it was a no go for anything other than transport planes, I wanted to fly the fast stuff. I can guarantee the new Top Gun movie coming out will not show women flying the jets, even though they can now.
@@Rabbithavenstitchery sorry that happened to you. If it had been me with my smart mouth, I would have said,"So, you volunteering to be my sugar daddy? Because if that's what the only thing you think a women is qualified to do, then I need someone to feed my 3 kids, because they're daddy is not doing it". Not saying that it is in your case, so please don't take it that way.😊
yep, that's why a former Olympian (I think) founded a clothing line called "Never Too Pretty"
Joan’s accessory change with every story is so cute!
Joan is a 'oner' LOL. LOVE her always . . .
Yess she needed a close up though!
To be fair to Lou, when he heard when Jackie was going to be banned, he swore (and Lou did not swear, usually) and told the rest of Murderers Row that he'd lost all respect for the Commissioner. There's even a rumour that they exchanged Christmas cards.
I would love to hear your take on Rosalind Franklin who discovered DNA. I learned in school about Watson and Crick but not Franklin. Do one on her!
I learned about Franklin but we were always taught in school that Watson and Crick were the only ones to present the discovery because she was a girl
I was lucky that my Chem and cell Bio profs were great women that told us all about Franklin
Read “The dark lady of DNA” for the full story.
I'm in bed with COVID and recently been dumped. Bailey I genuinely smiled when I saw you uploaded and covering some pretty epic women, we needed this. ❤️
Me too...the vivid that is. Jeez, does this virus ever go away?
@@saydvoncripps same 😔
I Hope you feel all better very soon! COVID’s a nightmare. I wish it would go away. I had it back in December, and I’m 15 but it felt like I was dying. It was a nightmare. Sending Peace, Love, and prayers to you friends ❤️

Speaking of women, the women of the 1916 rising in Ireland are the underrated hero’s, and not just in 1916 or the troubles, but the women who tried to pass on Irish culture to their children while risking death.
Where could I learn more about this? 🤔😲
Same with the greek women who played a central part in 1940 greek resistance against nazis in world war 2, during the years of german occupation of greece. Noone talks about them, noone knows about them. Sacrifice without recognition.
@@turanskamiska you unfortunately can’t really - their story aren’t documented
We just know them through word of mouth/stories in Northern Ireland - older women tell their stories to keep their Legacy alive
@@Laurensji I wish Bailey would talk about the Irish slaves that were kidnapped and forced to work in America. People don't want to talk about that part of history, ever.
BAILEY please make this a series!! You need a day where you just talk about one woman's story or even a few like you did here, especially the ones who have been diluted throughout history! I absolutely loved every minute of this episode and your side commentary is to DIE for! Please consider it! I think a lot of us would agree! Only if you feel up to it of course! I don't want to take away from any of MM&M or DH!
I love the way you said “what an entrance” at the beginning. Your eyes were glittering with admiration. It seemed like you really wanted to talk about those woman and that they were inspiring to you. Talk about things that make you happy Bailey!
I’m only five minutes in, and thank you for doing this video.
Just bringing to light the example of Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake it was perfect.
Sad part is is that when will society stop blaming women for men’s actions?
I’ve been wondering this myself for years and I get the feeling that it won’t be in my lifetime 😔
Her love for Joan is so cute. We need a close up of her costumes
If you dont know, you should really look into the story of Zheng Yi Sao, she was the most successful pirate ever recorded and was brutal! Great story a lot of people dont know
Can you do a series on this Bailey??? The world needs the reminder and you have the gift of sharing information in a relatable way
Regular moms: Reading regular bedtime stories to their kids for comfort
Me as a mom: playing Baileys Dark History library of videos for comfort
Right?!!!
I do both 😅🤘
"you're not a regular mom, you're a cool mom" 😎
My grandkids love her any time of the day.
My 7 year-old *loves* the Dark History episodes I've shown her and tells her friends about the things she learns from them too
Another woman that doesn’t get enough credit is Hilma af Klint! She was the original abstract artist, a few years before Vassily Kandinsky and Mondrian (who receive all the credit for abstraction). I learned about this from my female art professors!
I LOVE her work, speaking of female artists that don't get enough recognition - Leonard Carrington, she was labeled as a surrealist but she's so much more than that. I swear her art is sigils.
Why does it seem like it’s slowed down ? Doesn’t she sound slurred or something or am I crazy
So she is talked about
@@danhayes1342 read my comment again, I said she doesn’t get enough credit u bigot
Since im a 2000's kid i never familiarized myself with the Beatles and the whole Yoko Ono drama, i had always heard of people criticizing her but never understood why but also didnt bother to look it up myself. I was shocked to hear her true story and the false accusations thrown at her....
I would absolutely love to hear more stories like these women's to set their records straight
Ancient Egypt is my guilty pleasure I constantly watch documentaries on ancient Egypt. You could do so many dark history episodes on ancient Egypt cause there are so many cool things about ancient civilizations
Same. I actually named the feral mama cat that had kittens under my deck Cleopatra (aka Cleo) because she is a great leader and keeps all of the males in line. They all also love her. She just happens to be quite a beautiful Manx cat, too. Even though I caught her and got her spayed, she's still the ruler of this street. Osiris and Horus (as well as the others) know their place.
@@mermaid_at_heart213 Bastet would approve 😻
EXCELLENT TIMING. I was so bored. Now I have something to listen to. Thank you 🥺❤.
I read an article about Yoko a few years back that called her something like "the world's most famous unknown artist."
I've listened to her music, personally, I didn't like it.
Bailey, girl, we live in the 21. century and I get judged by at least 2-3 guys in EVERY new ward I go to, because SuRgErY iSn’T a WoMeN’s pRofEssIoN and I should pick something easier. Milder. I’m a woman after all.
Shame.
Ur a badass 😍
Well , I’m sorry to hear that but it’s not like that here where I come from and women are applauded just like men would be . Hope
It changes though and gets better for women .
You're likely smarter than them to even land a job like that being female just saying. In fact, it's less intelligent of the men to say barbaric things like that.
And yet statistics show women are better surgeons, because their patients all receive the same level of care. Men actually are more likely to mis perform during surgery on women or even more likely to let women patients die.
@@LaMadameGris wow , I’m a doctor and wouldn’t come across a single one who would mistreat or have gender bias .
There is a missing girl, 26 years old, and she was missing in a very strange way. When her mother went to look for her, the policemen and the FBI were not cooperative, on the contrary, they wanted to hide the evidence, and even the lawyers were rejecting this case, and they also found the remains of the bones of this girl, but not complete. The skull was separated from the spine, and they did not find the whole bones, and the details of the story are very shocking. We want justice for this girl, Jawaher Al-Hajji.
HEY EVERYBODY!! Upvote and reply to this to get Bailey's interest for MMM Mondays!!!

Thank you for this video, Bailey. I really hated how Justin got off scotfree, meanwhile Janet Jackson had to deal with all the backlash. He never even stood up for her and remained silent like the coward he is. It made me look at him differently.
Thank you for bringing attention to Cleopatra’s true history! I was named after her so I grew up doing lots of research on her. She was an intelligent and charismatic leader for sure.
You
Most everyone knows the play Hamilton. Eliza is portrayed as a home wife and can't possibly compare to Angelica when it comes to beauty, social circles, or intelligence. Fun fact, the line about the letters Hamilton wrote for the federalist papers...a significant portion of them were written in Eliza's hand writing and it was said that she was given credit for Alexander's status in treasury, as she was behind the scenes organizing and taking on large portions of that responsibility.
If not for Bailey, I'd have always thought that Cleopatra was just another beautiful women who was craved by men because that's all that's there in the books I've read about Cleopatra
That would never happen to a charismatic male leader. No matter what she did, she couldn't win.
Same here🖤🙏💯
She wasn't even an especially "beautiful" woman per se, she's just been written that way in history because people couldn't fathom that her intellect and charisma were what influenced so many important men and that the factor of ethereal beauty thus HAD to have been what caused it
I learned about Cleopatra from other people, first by the princess diary series I read as a kid and then from UA-cam channels such as overly sarcastic. Though I like how Bailey talks about the topic I found it strange she didn’t mention that Cleopatra actually killed herself because Octavian planned it humiliate her and she didn’t want to give him that satisfaction. One of the ways Octavian wrote slander against Cleopatra was commissioning Virgil to write The Aeneid.
I'm so happy you included Yoko in this. She really was just living her dream, then fell in love with a man that had the same frustrations with the world. He just happened to be more famous.
She also treated his son Julien like absolute garbage. She is not some sweet little angel.
@@jennyveile thank you. I cannot stand Yoko, and I don’t care at all about whether she broke up the Beatles or not. Julian did not deserve his fathers childish and selfish treatment and he was more mature than Yoko when he was a child.
You need to do a story on this lady.
"Mother Jones
Mother JonesTypically clad in a black dress, her face framed by a lace collar and black hat, the barely five-foot tall Mother Jones was a fearless fighter for workers’ rights-once labeled "the most dangerous woman in America" by a U.S. district attorney. Mary Harris "Mother" Jones."
Mother Jones has a statue erected in a Mt Olive IL park
Definitely! She was a bada$$, long before the word was used. Tell the story about her and the cannon. That's bada$$.
YASSSSS BAILEY PLEASE DO MOTHER JONES!!!
Yes please make this a series!! I’d love to hear about more women who society has hushed or down played!! Thanks Bailey and team- amazing as always!! 💖
Who else gets excited when Bailey comes out with a new video! 😍
Thank you for always being our rock on mon/thurs. Bailey makes our day ammirite
I remember one time being in a drive thru at in n out and I was sitting behind this car with some man driving it and it was plastered in Beatles tribute bumper stickers. Which wouldn’t be weird, except that he very specifically had a bumper sticker that was anti-Yoko (I think it was like her name with a crossed out circle over it or something) and directly below that was a sticker that had a quote from the notoriously post-Beatles era John Lennon song “Imagine”. The irony was too painful. The amount of hate Yoko gets from people who are obsessed with John Lennon and his hippy worldview, it makes no sense.
this !! it makes more sense tho when u realize john was extremely misogynistic and so many other things himself😭
Well she’s cringey and makes art that makes no sense and acts like she can sing. But it sounds like a dying cat 🤣
@@ilisten2thecureandcry yeah. John's treatment of his own son is disgusting ! He seems to have been a real zealot. I doubt that many of us would have actually liked him.
@@leanie5234 agreed !
I enjoy history more because of you Bailey! 🖤
LOVING THE PIGTAILS! Bailey- you never disappoint! “Scandalous”❤️
Yoko Ono is amazing, coming from an art school, we have always spoken highly of her works and never mentioned the men in her life. It’s great that you’ve covered her here because she’s so much more than what people have been saying about her
I respect her. I'm from Liverpool England where the Beatles are from .she has never forgotten the city and does a lot here . ❤
This is so fitting and we as women need to start supporting each other the same way the men of the world do !! Thank you Bailey for sharing knowledge!!
Dark history is legit the only way I know it's Thursday some weeks lol xD
Thank you Bailey, for not only the history lessons but also reminding me what day it is💜
It's ironic that women would be described as "too delicate" to play a sport when in reality the only thing that was too delicate was the ego of a man. I think it is getting better because women don't have to rely on what men decide to tell the world about them - we have social media and we can report on our own awesomeness and tell the stories of our fellow strong women.
Preach it sister
Too delicate, yet they give birth... Hmm. Lol
Totally agree!!!
She spoke 12 FREAKIN 12 diff languages?!?!?!?! That's beyond phenomenal
This is amazing, I had never heard of Jackie Mitchell, this was such an injustice !
You might want to check out A League of Their Own 👌 "see how it works is... the train moves, not the station" still one of my all time favourite movie quotes.
Amen Bailey, amen! I literally just saw a video yesterday titled something like, Cleopatra as one of the most evil queens in history. I clicked on it quizzically because I could think of worse female rulers and men by the dozens. I was left with more respect for her after watching than before and never once did I think she was "evil". It all comes down to women trying to survive (without a man) pictured as evil ie think back to Lilith and Eve. For wanting to have a choice in their lives. I can't believe history is so biased. I used to think history was a matter-of-fact, but in reality it's just the story written by those in power who wish to keep that power.
Can we have more episodes of iconic ladies stories! I learned so much!
I have to be honest, I'm proud that I was lucky enough to learn the real history of Cathrine the Great and Cleopatra. Cathrine, my 10th grade history teacher was big feminist so I learned the whole story! Also, at age 10 I remember I had to do a history report so I saw a book on Cleopatra and read it front to back. She was so cool! I know a lot of people aren't that lucky so I'm thankful I got to learn this.
what was the book called?
@Rᴇᴇᴍ I want to say it was a book called "You Wouldn't Want To Be Cleopatra." They're history books for kids.
Helo 😊❤
Please check out the life story of Hetshepsut. She was the first female pharaoh of ancient Egypt.
That'd be amazing!! ❤️
Hetshepsut was already covered by Puppet History on Watcher's UA-cam channel around 2 years ago. The crew behind that UA-cam channel are the guys from Buzzfeed~
@@SherylAnneTBien doesn’t mean that Bailey can’t cover her, too. Much love to Puppet History ❤
Hatshepsut wasn’t the first female pharaoh. The most famous and successful of them sure.
the story about yoko is extremely intriguing to me, she’s a girlboss and so were all the other women

Its a little unfair to Bailey, to say "it all starts with you."
It really puts the pressure on her. If she doesn't do the story, you'll think she doesn't care. I'm sure she does.
But as I said, there are soo many sad stories out there, and Bailey is only one woman.
You should also contact Ashley Flowers of Crime Junkies podcast. She’s known for giving the facts and even interviews families of victims of crimes. Honest story teller also.
Yes please 🙏🙏

I would love a series of this. Highlighting great women of history
Listen to The History Chicks- thye are great
@@tangiblelearning where do I find them?
@@cherrybomb1386 Just search The History Chicks on wherever you listen to your podcasts :)
As a longtime podcast listener…I thought Joan was a living crow! Hahahaha she’s still awesome and so are you Bailey!
Oh Yoko Ono’s story is making me cry. She’s such an amazing artist and still is to this day. But she did get such bad unfair press it’s so unfair.
She's still a really awful person though. She has absolutely erased John's eldest son even going as far as to sell off all of John's guitars that she didn't want to keep rather than gift any of them to Julian, Julian then had to buy back anything that he wanted to keep from his father. And not for cheap I might add.
I never like Yoko myself. Not because of Lennon but, because of her own actions. I could care less about why the Beatles broke up.
@@kiki29073 that's valid. I definitely care why the beatles broke up because they're my favourite band so I like to know about them but in the grand scheme of things if she was the true cause of the break up that wouldn't be the worst thing she's done. I dislike her more because of her actions towards Julian and his mother.
@@kiki29073 It's couldn't care less.
@@louuanneeestrewp6189 I was wondering how Yoko Ono made the roster when there were so many outstanding women, Yoko was a subpar artist, AND a genuinely nasty person.
I’ve been listening to this podcast at work every day and now I’m caught up and waiting for the video versions to come out to watch again 😂😂 love you Bailey! Thanks for all your hard work!
Ur right ...it is gross...how women are portrayed and ignored for their accomplishments!! I had only heard really negative stuff about Yoko ono🖤so sad!!!! I looove this series Bailey!!! Thank you🖤btw ur hair looks gorgeous..bug love to all x
Joan TOTALLY brought her A Game today! Looking fly, Joan. 🪶
I love your channel, I've been following since COVID started when you were just doing MMMM. I only have ONE suggestion- do NOT blame teachers for not being able to teach you these things. I am a teacher and trust me, I wish nothing more than to have awesome discussions and research projects that report like you do- FACTS. However, the curriculum is dictated to us. It is hard, so hard to have any creative freedom. Make a video about it. About how education ended up in the dumpster in America. We didn't teach you these things because we aren't allowed to. I would love to see a video told by you in which you explain how we ended up with the pipeline system. How education policy is more corrupt than many people imagine.
Thats messed up
I'm also an educator and I agree. Research educational figures throughout history, court cases, and the origins of laws around education and you'll see how we ended up where we are. Spoiler alert: we are not trying to teach controversial topics to your 5-year-old.
I had a friend who was a teacher in Guatemala. Same thing. He actually deviated from the curriculum, and when they finally caught him, they fired him. He just refused to conform at that point.
Now he’s broke and so desperate, to the point that we had a problem that ended our friendship 12 years ago, yet, he just wrote me a few weeks ago, without even asking how I was or apologizing for what he did; just to ask me for $200. It must be rock bottom for him to ask me of all people.
That is a GREAT idea! It's the dark history of why and how we don't learn dark history. Bailey definitely needs to do this one!
And if you go off book at all upon risk parents retaliation, or getting fired.
I've never even heard of Jackie Mitchell 💔 And thank you for standing up for all these Brave Women ❤️
It's interesting hearing your perspective on Yoko. It's obvious how much John Loved Yoko! He Adored Her. That's All that matters. The music that she and Sean inspired was Beautiful. Double Fantasy is a wonderful Album. I never understood all the negative stories and press about her. Understand, I was a Senior in High School when Double Fantasy came out. I grew up with The Beatles.
We weren't meant to know the Real Yoko. I admire her for standing her ground and doing right by his Memory.
I bet she's a pretty Cool Lady.
I could be wrong but part of the Yoko hate might have to do with her being Asian. People would rather blame her for the Beatles break-up than creative differences between band members.
Yeah he adored her so much he wouldn't let her go to the restroom alone.
@@michie666 yep loved her so much he had to beat it into her.
I was mostly shocked to learn she had a daughter from a previous marriage! Does anyone know what happened to her?
@@lorenagiuria5798 she was kidnapped by her father, & Yoko didn't see her for many years.
On the note of celopatra/Egypt. You should do a dark history on 'hatshepsut' she's a phaoret, with a whole backstory 😍
The universe as we know it was mapped by a group of women! They were known as "The Harvard observatory computers". The director quoted his maid could do better then some of the scientists on his team, hence how the group was started.
Sadly those women were basically used. Edward Pickering Employing woman staffers was an economic decision rather than an ethical one, as a woman could be hired at 25 to 50 cents per hour - half of what a man would have to be paid.
@@chesterbrooks3606 Absolutely they were used. But they did make a big statement in Science. Along with many other women we've washed from our history books.
I live and work in Chattanooga, and it is SO cool to hear Bailey tell the story about Jackie!
Thank you babe! You definitely made my night!
Chattanooga is a beautiful area. If y’all haven’t been, you should definitely consider a visit!
I LOVED this ep!! A full series on powerful women who were slighted by history would be aaahhhMAAAAzing!!!
I laughed out loud with Little Ceasar. I couldn't keep a straight face XD
The HAIR 👌🏻👌🏻 what an actual queen, always love seeing her face on my home page
