This video by BritMonkey gives an introduction to Georgism and the importance of land value taxation.

Saw the old version down in the sub, thought I'd add the new one.

I was watching this talk while rebuilding a big docker container at work, and it gave a surprise shout-out to Henry George's Progress and Poverty, in the context of how Google and other tech "platforms" have turned themselves into digital landlords.

TL;DW: This video goes into how a broken property tax assessment system has resulted in systemic over-assessment and over-taxing of properties in poor neighborhoods and under-assessment and under-taxing of properties in wealthy neighborhoods.

A classic video from Mr. Beat

TL;DW: Tom Nicholas details the history and origin of the board game Monopoly. It was a rip-off of a game, The Landlord's Game, by a Georgist named Elizabeth Magie. She created the game to feel miserable, to show how monopolization of Earth's finite, god-given land only led to miserable outcomes. It had a secondary rule set that implemented Georgism's signature policy: land value tax. The winning condition was when everyone reach a certain amount of money. A game of shared prosperity, just like Georgism envisions.
