Heimler's History DISCORD Server: / discord
In this video Heimler walks you through what you need to know about the Declaration of Independence for AP Government. This document, written by Thomas Jefferson (with editorial help from John Adams and Benjamin Franklin), officially declared America's independence from Britain. In doing so, Jefferson made plain the Enlightenment sources from which he drew, especially natural rights theory, popular sovereignty, and the social contract.

Heimler I might cry how did I just find out you were doing AP gov videos?!?! Literally saving my senior year
Damn I'm doing this in my sophomore year, I was doing it in my freshmen year but then dropped out lmao
Exactly lol, I’m watching this on the bus before the AP exam
I graduated this year and I’m here to say thank you for the help with my AP classes. My final goodbye thank you!!!!
AP U.S. History was the best AP class so far (I've taken HuG, Euro, Lit, Lang, and Physics)! I loved it so much. Once you get into it, you succeed. At first, it seemed boring until I thought about how it applied to my life. I started at a 2 on a practice exam, but ultimately scored a 5.
It's easy bc America doesn't have much history
@@tiktokshorts123.8 you obviously didnt take apush
@@eight_nine Nah these are just facts.
America's history is nothing compared to other countries history.
@@tiktokshorts123.8 About 500 years of history are taught in mostly one country. It's not much, but you can go into a beautiful amount of detail and learn so much more than just the surface level curriculum for most European history classes will teach.
Since you clearly love European history, think of it like this: A true US history course will cover the same amount of time (about 500 years) with the same depth as a course teaching about the republican period of Rome (about 500 years). When it's put like that, it suddenly seems more attractive, right?
@@sakaue Lol I never said I was interested in European history. But if we do consider that, then Europe has gone through a lot of things, whether it was their ancient civilizations or their modern history it is for a fact more than America's history, and I'm not trying to offend you by saying that but that's just the truth.
Great video. You are so good at explaining concepts in a clear, concise manner.
Thank you. Your explanation was clear and very emlightening
Nicely done! Very clear and concise--perfect for note taking😏
Time for everyone to pay attention to what's written in the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE -- More relevant today than ever!
Well delivered sir, thank you, that was a most excellent delivery
Awesome job! “…the consent of the people”
This is HUGE! 🙏
Its great to know how our counrty was formed. He done a great job summarizing. Thank you
i love ur concise explanations
This is great. Very good. Thank you!
I’m literally dumbfounded how heimler doesn’t have at least half a million subs or more. He carries all of us I stg 🧍🏻♀️
He’ll get there
He got there
he’s there
He does rn 😮💨😎💪

a poco si Ivan - IV
THANK YOU !!!!!!!!
THANK YOUUU I have to write a poem about this and I simply didn’t understand it
HI HEIMLER!! 💗💗
Oh hey
Thank youuu!
Can you do a video on Fredrick Douglas? I find his story very interesting in that he felt the vicious racism of his time, but still saw the Declaration of Independence as a “glorious liberty document’. Many people try to discredit the Declaration of Independence by saying that there were slaves and thus delegitimizing the good nature of the Declaration of Independence, but Douglas (a once slave) saw the document, and for that matter America, as a path to freedom and equality. He saw the Declaration of Independence as a framework to someday live up to, even if it’s written ideals are not being met today.
I'm taking this class in August haha
Oh shoot that's this month
Alright, see you then
Take three, Heimler! Helped me in Euro, U.S., and now Government - except I'm in honors because my school deleted the class :(
I’m so happy I have government first semester 😌
Bravo 👏
4:20... Sorry i'm still an 8yr old at heart.
thanks
We need a follow up man .
heimler i dont wathc ur vids but i love you
Respect
hes the best
never even heard of this one
i love you.
Taking AP Macroecon along with AP Gov this year.
Okay then… good luck!
Right
John Locke was an academic. He wrote and thought. Thomas Jefferson was a patriot that risked his life and his fortune to start a new nation. He DID something. He acted. He helped form the great nation we now enjoy. It's easy to be a thinker and an idea person. It's hard to actually do something. To actually build something like a new nation.
the two are not mutually exclusive ;)
What's up Heimler? I know this is random but I hope you are doing well.
It's interesting that all of the comments are about passing a test instead of discussing the content. It says a lot about students today.
Is it plausible to only watch Heimlers and then take the test?
That’s my plan
Probably, as long as you keep up with your assignments, notes, etc..
Goat 🐐
Been a long time since I've milked the brain cows
❤
preamble - influenced by enlightenment ideals
- laws of nature: people subject to natural rights [john locke]
- unalienable rights from god, not govt
- consent of the governed (govt power from the ppl, popular sovereignty: power to govern in ppl, social contract: ppl surrender rights to get protected by govt)
Looking back: I would have EASILY gone through AP classes in High School if I had UA-cam back then.
The list of grievances is as valid today as it was 250 years ago.
After 7 years old 😂😂❤❤❤
Does it count as law cuz I wanna make my own jail and put every American politician in they’re all clearly corrupt but would it b legal
As I said in a social media post back some time ago: "I will support any United States of North American President, that follows the 'Declaration of Independence." You can believe what you decide is right or wrong. Ask yourself one question. Why did these people come to a land unknown, maybe the Magna Carta, might explain the acts that people had back in that day in time. What happened the day three ships sailed away was the venture and beginning of Assumingly a betterment in life, liberty, and freedom from a King's greed. Only an | OPINION that I see from history that I was taught back in TEXAS and what I've seen for now 73 years.
Great explanation. It’s to bad they didn’t actually make this for all people back then. The Civil War wouldn’t have happened if it included blacks and women. I’m not a historian so correct me if I’m wrong?
“Enlightened people”
Let's see Thomas Thomas Abraham and George definitely something it's not right 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oguakes patacla ley fe los hombres ybel universe ❤
And I'm not weird
Why are we not doing anything about a tyrannical government we have now?
I didn't get this please speak faster so I forget what i just listen to !
Don’t you need 75% of the entire American nation to agree to abolish or reform our government?
How you go to apply for the American citizen people at least I hope you understand and you know and speak English you need to have good English cuz you have to answer economy d history or you go to the doctor the doctor sign you have problems psychology or something I hear something like that yeah people go and pay a doctor or sunset yatra Year songs of yatras psychologist approves and diagnostic and you don't have to pass the test you American citizen only with money 🤑 I hear something like that well people have to answer 130 questions imagine when I make my own 😢 a lot of questions so at least you have to speak fluent English not the best but at least try to speak good English and I understand exactly what is around you love the law its beautiful people ❤
Jefferson wrote the Document at the age of 33. Think about that.
0:08 the answers no sorry man
Consent of the governed is impossible... those who require rulers are not qualified to choose them for themselves let alone others... David Hume in Of the Original Contract had an interesting analogy about being taken aboard a ship while asleep and forced to be under the dominion of the captain or leap into the ocean to die... The founders had no just authority to contract with the unborn let alone anyone who did not sign the document...
You’re line of thinking suggests that we live in individual bubbles. Living in a free society has led to countless benefits for you and everyone else who participates. That requires a mutual consensus on what laws we will govern ourselves by. It’s not about having rulers, consent of the governed implies that we agree to live within the laws our society establishes, or that we change those laws, because by giving up pure and total freedom we gain the benefits of living in an organized society.
@@CuratedCars nobody alive consented to any of this.
Im not 🚫😡 AmBAR
Docisl political and economic system completely different BIDEN what you done ✅
What I don't understand is why he didn't go until the full story of what the declaration of the independence actually did! All that stuff that you're talking about the natural law natural rights is what is known as a republic and that's the only thing that government is licensed to do which is to protect your rights meaning that you cannot be held in a court of law for a trial unless you have a natural citizen as your accuser. A police officer or a government employee is not your accuser. The government employee has only one interest which is to do what: to make sure that Justice is being brought in the name of a citizen and not a corporate or government employee. Black's law dictionary specifically says that a republic the exercise of the natural law. And the great thing about that is where we need to start and rebuilding the Republic. The declaration of Independence seceded from England and established Republicans out of colonies and mandated that these Republicans be true republics as in Plato's Republic solon's Republic and the first practice of republic which was Athens. Christian natural law was perfected by Saint Thomas Aquinas in his book summa theologica. But it had been written about by Saint Anne in Saint Barbara as well as Averroes or ibn Rushd.
holy yap
Ambar look mote evil big tine names 😅 do you know AmBAR you want to found me espero don't call me again evils
Again im look evils 😮
Declaration of independence makes January 6th legal and lawful.
Well, the Declaration isn’t a legal document…
@@heimlershistory actually yes it is,the declaration of independence is the only reason America exists without the declaration of independence there is no president, congress,justice department or constitution.
@@heimlershistory the declaration of independence existed long before the constitution, it is what declares every American citizens sovereignty, consent of the governed.
@@dragonf1092 um, no... the constitution is what sets up our government (aka congress, executive branch, etc...). the declaration was just a break away from Britain and the reasons why. it didn't set up America. and the fact that you're trying to justify the January 6th insurrection doesn't make it a surprise that you can't understand that.
@@dragonf1092 Dude did you even watch the video?

There’s no country call the United States Of North America
