Sorry For My Language by Grindstone

Episode notes

Jingle Bells was created by a racist person in Medford, MA who introduced his song in Minstrel shows for money. The exploitation of black people was so lucrative that this song became a huge success and an American family holiday tradition. The composer of this song later left his abolitionist parents and traveled south to join ranks with the Confederacy and fight in the Civil War. His sister then had a child who used his proceeds to finance banks. We know his nephew as J.P. Morgan. America was built on filth.
