00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:54.600
brought to you by a dentist, no dental association, but

Now.

9
00:00:56.079 --> 00:00:58.560
There are two types of smiles, the genuine and the

10
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:02.240
pitty smile. Our brains can detective a smiless, fake or not. Now,

11
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:04.760
smiling and photographs, it nearly didn't start until about the

12
00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:07.480
nineteen fifties. Say, before then, people really didn't have good

13
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:09.799
teeth plus to pose for a picture. It took a while,

14
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:11.120
and it was kind of hard to hold a smile

15
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:14.200
for that long. So celebrate today by smiling. You know,

16
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:16.359

18
00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:22.519

Now the Guinness Book of World Record they got a

41
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.319
little worried about that one. Yeah, they were worried about

42
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:56.840

43
00:02:56.879 --> 00:02:58.919

44
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:01.759
to break it all, right, says going on in the world.

45
00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:05.400
On May the thirty first, eighteen sixty eight. Any guesses

46
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:08.680
where the first Memorial Day parade was held Ironton, Ohio.

47
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.759

patent for his invention that changed the world. Yeah, it

49
00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:16.960
was asphalt pavement. Now two months from then they paid

50
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.000
the very first street with it. It was Williams Straight

51
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:21.159
in Newark, New Jersey. Three months later they had to

52
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:23.400
fill in the first bottle. Now I'm just joking. It

53
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:27.599
was probably four months eighteen ninety the Olm Germany. In Olm, Germany,

54
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:30.000

00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.560
tallest church in the world that has a steeple. Still

56
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:34.680

00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:46.639
throughout the last minute. Since he has some money with them,

00:03:58.080 --> 00:03:58.199
Now.

66
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:01.280
The black community of Greenwood is in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It

67
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:03.919
was the wealthiest black community in the United States. A

68
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:06.599
black man in Tulsa. He was arrested for raping a

69
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:09.280
white woman who was an elevator operator. A white mob

70
00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:11.400
gathered at the jail the lynch that guy. Well, the

71
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:14.240

72
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:16.639
ten whites were killed and two blacks were killed. Well,

73
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:20.480

80
00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:40.639
a white man saw it and thought that the man

81
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:42.800
was assaulting her. So when it was all over, they

82
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.079

83
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:48.439
