A Hater Said I’m OBSESSED with White Americans

In this video, I’ll explain why exploring the systems of power that shaped American history often involves examining the stories of those who held the most influence—and how understanding these narratives connects us all. This isn’t about assigning blame; it’s about uncovering the complexities of our shared past. ✅SUPPORT NYTN 👕 NYTN Merch: https://www.nytonashville.com ☕Send me a coffee!: https://ko-fi.com/nytn13#linkModal 📱 Connect on Patreon: www.patreon.com/NYTN ► 📝 My Free Weekly Newsletter: https://nytonashville.com/connect ▶Download the first section FREE of my "Be a Good ancestor" course here: https://nytonashville.com/shoplola/be-a-good-ancestor-course-digital-download-videos-bjks6 FOLLOW ME 📸 ► YouTube: / @NYTN ► Facebook: / https://www.facebook.com/findinglolafilm/ ► Website: https://www.nytonashville.com/ ► X: / https://twitter.com/ImFindingLola/ OTHER VIDEO PLAYLISTS ► Melungeon + Redbones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyLd8rizXCQ&list=PLvzaW1c7S5hS0duqgK5mkBh_9aqIpbooI ► "Who Counts as..."

My name is Danielle Romero, and all my life, I have romanticized Louisiana. Growing up in New York, it represented a place where I could step back the sepia-toned life of my great grandmother, Lola Perot, who died before I was born. Now, it was time to go back to Louisiana--although I had no idea what the truth would be or what questions to ask---who was Lola really? Who were we? *Amazon links are affiliate links.
