Thankk you for this! Fixing to grow my own flax plants (was for the seeds) and had no idea it was the same thing as linen/linseed. Haha such a useful crop for a homestead!
My dad and many other farmers grew flax in the 1950's and 1960's because as a grain it was a lucrative crop in terms of price per bushel. As a side they would sell the 'straw' to a third party which would bale and stack it temporarily in the field to be picked up later.
Very interesting to watch, I noticed you didn’t show the soaking process which was done in the U.K. is that part of the process which was done in America or did then not do that?
Hi, Would love to have a download for this one so that I can show it to my learners as part of the topics "Long Ago" and "How plants help us" - I'm teaching Grade 3 in South Africa. Would you be able to share with me in an email?
The whites don't care either ... and they say _it was only our grandpa that was a bad man_ , and yet they would do the same injustice/cruelty to the people outside of their country ... Did they really learn?
The term enslaved as opposed to slave is used to distinguish between a person’s circumstance and their humanity. People are enslaved, being enslaved does not change your identity to a slave.
Image how wealthy the offspring of the enslaved skilled workers would be today if those enslaved ppl got to make money off of their skill instead of the unskilled human traffickers
Yeah, the wording was very cringe-inducing. The history of the art is fascinating, but it feels icky glossing over the issue of slavery to glorify Washington.
I'm sure he did it with his own hands when it was necessary. He was a general and leader. He had to train the colonials to battle Britain, sure he had some help but he was the guy in charge. Leaders who lead the way George Washington led have a hands on approach.
please don’t say he would have. Washington was a high ranking officer. Making fabric was considered woman’s work or slave work, no man ever did this unless they were a independent small farm with no slaves to work it or it was to add their name to it and profit from it
"skilled enslaved workers..." were they Irish? were they of African descent? I think it is important to know on whose skilled labor our nation was built. Thank you.
Thought their was a slim chance you might be interested in knowing that George Washington Inherited his slaves, and was very anti slavery. There were laws in Virginia making it very difficult to free your slaves except on your death, which he did. He treated his "slaves" like family. And I'm sure they felt the same. Jefferson was in the same boat. Regardless every significant invention you take for granted today came from the North before the Civil War. While the South was still picking cotton we were busting crap out in factories, and making superior weaponry. That's what freedom will get you. The Civil War is also where the price of The African American freedom was paid. So all the ones whining rite now should get a job. Or maybe take a real stand for our freedom that's being lost. Their ancestors would be ashamed.
@@richardwilliams1047 Civil War wasnt fought over Slavery... that was the excuse they used.. it was really over the banks and the cotton plantations.

The Northern Bankers (the Zionists) wanted to own all that as they now do today.

Finally I understand what it means in fantasy books when people have "flaxen" hair :)
It's amazing you can get this kind of stuff out of a plant. It looks so much like hair. Thank you for sharing.
Very interesting! I'm amazed at human ingenuity for figuring out how to make threads, then fabric out of a plant!
Slaves did a great job!!
Egyptians were doing this over 5,000 years ago. This video makes it seem like George Washington invented this process.
@@grandmaday9575 nowhere in the video they say that they invented it.
Áno, ale bola to ťažká a zdĺhavá práca, od vysiatia až po konečný produkt 🙂
@@dilectusfilius3633 its white people who showed them.

Cool video. I'd always wondered how exactly it was made..
Thank you for sharing how to make linen from flax seeds you are truly awesome and wonderful ^^

Short and concise video that explained everything very nicely. Thank you !
What a neat video! Great explanation!
Thank you for sharing this.
This was very informative. Thank you.
Fantastic video, thank you.
✌💚 🇬🇧
Really interesting, thank you!
Nicely explained👍🏻 such a nice video
Thanks! Just harvested some flax I wanna try it!
What a pain! But there were only limited options for inexpensive material.
Nice video and explanation clear
Good informative time managed video 👍👍
Thank-you for this explanation 🙂
awesome plant
Very interesting to watch, I noticed you didn’t show the soaking process which was done in the U.K. is that part of the process which was done in America or did then not do that?
Linen is made using exactly the same tool to make rope from hemp, interesting. Cool video :)
Good video

Tak sa to veru robilo, ešte kdesi doma nejaké náradie by sa našlo 👍
I like how she says “George Washington did” this and that… And then at the end we find out who’s actually doing this and that… Hilarious
"George Washington had a team of skilled enslaved spinners" - powerful passive voice. They just happened to be enslaved, who can say how or why?
The whites don't care either ... and they say _it was only our grandpa that was a bad man_ , and yet they would do the same injustice/cruelty to the people outside of their country ... Did they really learn?
She sounded proud saying it😂
Really i like to work this linen faiber fabric where from this youtube video know day i am making cotton fabric here my country
Can I sow flaxseed in February?
And if it was a mix of both?
im here just because playing Pharaoh, thanks
Beijing George also like hemp
George Washington DID like hemp! He even grew a bunch of it: ua-cam.com/video/-RO__oWEAZo/v-deo.html
Isn't it easier to say the 'slaves' instead of 'the enslaved workers'?
Sure, if you want to be a jerk about it.
The term enslaved as opposed to slave is used to distinguish between a person’s circumstance and their humanity. People are enslaved, being enslaved does not change your identity to a slave.
It’s more humanizing to say “enslaved person”.
Hello This video is very very nice !!! Can I feature you on my blog with link?

retard
What George Washington really did was realize that his slaves had a skill for making linen and exploited that.
I'm guessing all this technology came from Europe.
"George Washington had a team of skilledenslavedspinners" hmmm
It was my school video
george washington did this, george washington did that... you tell me he processed flax with his own hands one time lol

@@deeez00 oh, and slaves...

Well, he wasn't born the president so I expect he learnt a lot of things before moving into politics.
i have a feeling that white hands never did this work on George washington’s plantation
I'll have to get our slaves to do likewise, thank you for the inspiration, George Washington. :)

they were human beings before anything. yknow, people. a word and concept we’ve seem to forgotten recently

More people are getting red pilled everyday
@@ChristopherJones16 um, you might want to reread the cornerstone speech.
Damn , his slaves hot to wear linen and I'm here still struggling to find me some cotton to make my summer clothes . WHY IS COTTON SO EXPENSIVE NOW ?
Mid evil dynasty lol
looks like a wig
Oh... TOO MUCH WORK!!! I BETTER GO BUY EILLEN FISHER ORGANIC TOP!!! Much easier 💖
Yes, making clothes for the “enslaved workers” is a real achievement. 🤦🏼♀️ Also why are y’all so obsessed with your founding fathers? It’s weird.
"linen then became clothes and underwear for the *ensl4v3d* workers" well.. that's bad.
