A History of Ghosts (Revised.)

A 3500 year old Babylonian tablet gives the first known description of how to get rid of a ghost. It involves two dolls and beer. This video has been revised due to YouTube policy. (error correction at 2:26) Yes, this is a reupload of Wednesday’s video. YouTube placed a content flag on the video, limiting monetization. It turns out that, in a brief discussion of the mysticism of the Koisan people, a woman in a stock image had an exposed breast. That is not uncommon in a culture that does not follow western strictures regarding clothing. The display was neither obvious nor gratuitous, (I did not notice until it was pointed out,) but YT policy isn’t always reasonable, and the video was classified as “pornography.” The offensive image, at 2:46, has been edited to conform with policy. Because YouTube doesn’t allow reposting on the same URL after simple corrections, my only option was to reupload. Of course, this will cost me views and compensation for my effort. If you watched the video last week, and are so inclined, give it another view and maybe share it with your friends so that I can earn money to pay for Pocky’s treats. et ubera sint liberi For the record, the Koisan people do not consider breasts to be sexual.
