New little video: History Tube has a Citation Problem

I made a short video about why all history videos should include a bibliography and, ideally, full page references. I then explain how to write history and why referencing is important.

I am still working on a big video series about Marx's social theory but my co-author is unexpectedly busy and this has delayed things. I will be making lots more quick videos in the meantime.

Thanks! I'm not losing it then. I found it mentioned on the incredible papers past website here in nz, which turns out to be an incredible source for getting dates. E.g: one result from searching Malatesta https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/HBTRIB19210802.2.34?items_per_page=10&query=Malatesta&snippet=true

In 1891 Belgium delegates propose a motion banning anarchist delegates because they aren't socialists and oppose organizing via trade unions or electoral politics (lol I know). 3 delegates are anarchists, two for non-anarchist groups. The motion passes but only the anarchist delegate representing an anarchist group is expelled. In 1893 this is formalized by the requirement that participants in the congress support political action, which of course ignores anarchist conceptions of political struggle. Then in 1896 anarchists attend the london congress and try to change this. They fail and are expelled. Source: Under the Socialist Banner: Resolutions of the 2nd international edited by Mike Taber.

Kia ora Zoe, I've just joined from NZ (after meaning to for some time). It occurred to me to contact you as I just had a surprised to learn that the anarchists were in fact rejected from the 2nd international in 1891, in Brussels, as opposed to 1893, as I've seen it reported many times. I assume this is just a lack in my won understanding, and just wondered if that was your understanding of events as well?

Excellent points and hitherto all to absent on Youtube. (Potholer54 doing a good job on scientific literacy; accuracy in humanities content is vital.)

I appreciate this video so much. Not only is the point you make important, but you also teach a process for research in a really accessible way.
