This video debunks the claim that the Second Amendment was created for racist reasons. It argues that the right to bear arms has ancient roots in English law, predating widespread slavery, and was primarily championed by anti-slavery northern states. The video highlights that early arms guarantees in states like Pennsylvania and Vermont coincided with their moves to abolish slavery, and that northern states were instrumental in pushing for the Second Amendment's inclusion in the Bill of Rights. It concludes that denying African Americans the right to bear arms was a tool of oppression during the Jim Crow era, not the reason for the amendment's existence.
