Xpand Your Horizons is a growing online community that shares videos and other material aimed to intrigue people to think outside the box and expand the interest all around. The Xpand Your Horizons Family is sometimes shortened to "XYH" or "XYHor" here on Tumblr in our many secondary and more specific blogs. Our Family has compiled more than 60 playlists on YouTube now and has viewed every video to make sure that what is delivered is factual. If something appears questionable or the comment feedback alludes to mistakes, research is done and it is determined whether or not it's worth sharing. As of late, it is so easy to come across videos containing little to no actual research or are so heavily boggled down with opinions that you can find yourself in a battle of so-called "whits" on the internet. The Xpand Your Horizons Family doesn’t yet upload or produce any original content...yet... but we would like to make it known that We’re sharing all this contentbecause it's important to take Science seriously in a healthy and safe environment. Each playlist can be found on YouTube under the Xpand Your Horizons moniker and their specific topic(s) is/are displayed in the title, and further explanation is in their descriptions. Not all are academic inclined, some deal with pop culture as well as media. Enjoy!For more content, Click Here and experience this XYHor in its entirety!
