Hello guys! In today's episode, we cover what experiences African-Americans have been going through since they arrived in America. From slavery, to the Civil Rights Movement, and through to today, we not only examine the actual history of African-Americans in America, but we also talk about the impact they've had on American culture and society, and the experiences of African-Americans today. For this, I am joined by my friend, Milan Glass. You should also check out her podcast with the link https://anchor.fm/thepowerofyoupodcast and check out her advice on self-help!

The Hundred Years War was fought between England and France during the 13th and 14th centuries. It was a war which changed the way wars were fought and produced many chivalrous battles and honorable heroes on both sides. In this episode, I interview a friend and student of history named Rakesh on the origins of the war and the events that lead up to it.
