In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

LikedAlbus Dumbledore is widely regarded as the most powerful wizard of his time. Some may say Voldemort, or even Grindelwald, but in my opinion- Dumbledore had something special that the others didn’t. He was truly one of a kind. Or…Was he? My question today is: was Dumbledore as special as we make him out to be? Does he deserve to be pedestalized to the extent that he is? Or is it possible that someone else could reach- or even surpass- his level of power? Surely SOMEONE has the potential to match him, right? And if so..Who?

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedAs far as works of fiction go, the Harry Potter books are pretty mild. Sure, the books do get a LITTLE bit darker as the story goes on..But you’d never go so far as to deem it SATANIC or something..Right? Well, as it happens, many people DO think this way (I know, nuts), and ever since the first book hit the shelves in the late ‘90s, there have been waves of controversies surrounding the series—including some truly outrageous claims… Like Harry Potter being somehow synonymous with devil worship. And that’s just one of these flagrant claims. One asserts that the Harry Potter books act as an “open doorway that will put untold millions of kids into hell” Another claims that that the books are “worse than rat poison mixed with orange soda” And one religious figure even made the bold proclamation that: "Behind Harry Potter hides the signature of the king of the darkness, the devil.” These are REAL quotes. But..Now the question is: Are these assertions substantiated in ANY WAY? Today, we’re going to be tackling this topic head-on—unpacking why so many people believed Harry Potter served as a gateway to hell, what unfolded in the wake of these controversies, and why, despite all the backlash, the series not only survived…But became a global phenomenon.

14:42 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked14:42
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedI’ve done a lot of spell videos. The most powerful, the most dangerous, the hardest to cast, but one I’ve always wanted to make involves taking a look at the most… Messed up. Not the deadliest. Not the flashiest. But the kind of spell that makes you question why someone would even invent it in the first place. Fortunately I’ve gone down the spell rabbit hole pretty deep- I’ve even made an entire video covering every single spell in the Wizarding World. So I’ve got a pretty solid grasp on the full spellbook. Which is why today, we’re shining a light on the most messed up, demented spells the Wizarding World has to offer—spells that exist to inflict pain, humiliation, and sometimes just pure, senseless suffering. Instead of focusing on the obvious ones, my goal for this video will be to dig deeper into the cruel, obscure, and morally bankrupt curses, hexes, and jinxes that most of you probably haven’t even heard of. But before we get stuck in, I do want to highlight one consideration: Sometimes, it’s not about what the spell is inherently—it’s about how it’s used. Something that seems harmless on the outside—like a spell used to mend a broken teacup can quickly become a tool of torment in the wrong hands. Anyway.. Let’s dive into it.

And upon his first discovery of this magical realm, he’s filled with both excitement and confusion. “Harry - Yer a Wizard” “I’m a what?” Gasped Harry This was a boy who had, for all his waking years, endured a painfully DULL and oppressive life at 4 Privet drive alongside the Dursleys. And now, suddenly, in a single moment, an entire magical world seems to be calling his name. Potions. Spells. Magical Creatures. Magic Wands. All of it. And this sudden revelation of a hidden world offered not only a glimmer of hope—but also the promise of a life far beyond the ordinary. And what does Harry go and do? CAST absolutely no spells for the entire first film. No, really. Harry Potter, the BOY WHO LIVED, Voldemort SLAYER- doesn’t cast ANYTHING. But.... What about when he....

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedWhen navigating the Wizarding World through the perspective of a Muggle, there are a lot of things that might raise a few eyebrows. Some in a morally dubious sense—and others simply because of how unbelievably astonishing they are. But in my view, there is perhaps nothing more sinister or baffling than the notion of a love potion (and that’s quite a statement given what’s out there) Think about it: it’s a potion that you give to someone… and it makes them fall INVOLUNTARILY in love with you. For just a second- consider the power you could have over someone with this- one sip from a potion and they’re infatuated with you. And all of this only feels even more bizarre when you consider the fact that we’re CONSTANTLY reminded of how POWERFUL the force of love truly is in the Wizarding World. Yet… somehow, love can be bottled and sold? Like a trinket on a shop shelf in Diagon Alley. Today we’re going to be taking a closer look at LOVE potions in Harry Potter. HOW they’re allowed to exist, HOW they work, and even a few theories on Why I think they might not be QUITE what we think they are- ONE of which involves the Weasley twins. Let’s dive in.
