  • What I see in this video, is intense strength and courage. Both were required in the face of government sanctioned, law-enforcement backed institutionalized racism. These men and women had to be fearless to face policemen, police-dogs, water hoses and a federal government that commonly practiced a sublime form of bigotry.

  • Gee, and you wonder why america is going broke and the chinese students run cycles around american students...

  • so much for damocrecy

  • Because I was bussed I was viewed as less alien and got the chance to have an education comparable to anglos. The benefits promoted cross-racial friendships and productive exchanges (though not without conflict). I've never experienced the zenith of fairness (few have) but I learned to see others in ways less alienating than those trapped in enforced, or chosen segregation. Come on over. We'll shoot the breeze, rag on government, look at girls... the only difference being my natural "tan".

  • There was youtube back then 1960.? Lol

  • Im always blown away when people use the word "Freedom" to justify intolerance.

  • @randypagan I agree. To paraphrase Mark Twain; They know the word but not the music (that being the responsibities that go with freedom... including the responsibility of protecting the freedom of others.

  • white forever and ever

  • @RavenBeastBoy ....until you find out that your great great great great great great grandfather was actually black....then you will realise how much of an ignorant twat you have been.

  • The lady at the beginning uses excuses like " they shouldn't make the long journey 3, 4 miles......wow i can see she is open minded jk lol Sad to live back then

  • Obama’s “FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn Free Internet a Civil Right for Every Nappy-Headed Child” watch?v=JWETGCggzcE She also voted for Net Neutrality,which could ultimately censor the internet impeding our first amendment rights of Freedom of Speech. watch?v=lGplqSh8fYU

    .

    Her dad is James Clyburn, former house majority WHIP. She’s probably aware our unfunded liabilities are $115 Trillion per debt clock.

  • @DMJR13 - Your comment only goes to display your illiteracy, ignorance and utter lack of thought in a 21st century world where sentiments like these are not only irrelevant but laughable. This is assuming that you are actually an adult capable of actually understanding what you wrote.

  • @surambaya i would respond to that statement with extremely irrational and offensive language if only i understood what the fuck you were saying.

  • I heard stories that the German POW's in WWII were treated much more respect than the American Black soldiers.How fucked up was that?

  • ALL MEN ARE EQUAL, the constitutions says. Civil Rights was a huge achivemet of the black comunity, but after that goal; why the black people are so repugnant. back in the 1959,1960, until 1961, the black comunity fought for equality, fought for education, fought for the american dream, but from that day until the present moment, the black comunity just represent Criminals, Drugs, Indecency(hip-hop). Really what happend,

  • Whether he is good bad or indifferent, I am glad Barack Obama is president. I am not agreeing nor disagreeing with whatever he does but his election must really eat at the minds of white supremists and bigots! It serves them right! And to me that is satisfaction on racism!

  • some of these protesters sound just like Glenn Beck, saying that they say one thing yet do another.

  • it makes me cry

  • @sweetrockerxoxo i know me too its really sad even tough im not black :(

  • Woman's gotta point. NonetheLess. HeartsandMinds

  • *Sends kids to a religious school*

    *Advocates segregation*

    *Brain explodes*

  • yea this is the country the fuckin tea baggers want back.

  • : HOW COME WHITE MALES FUCK THEIR OWN MOTHER AND SISTER, When his mother gives birth to his baby what does he call that child or HONKY(brother-daddy)?

    : As Mr. King said "I have a dream" and my dream is to kill all whites.

    ''case closed''

  • @AirNomads1978 wow your one hell of a nigger

  • : I hate white people my whole family hates white people, we blacks will kill all white people.

    : You think were still in the 60s when my PEOPLE couldn't do anything when y'all kicked them around like soccer balls.

  • oh america is such a hypocrite back in the old days "FREEDOM" "JUSTICE" blah blah blah constitution and rights to me america was more like the first nazi state. yeah i said it

  • @tiesin09 well in alot of ways America was worst than a Nazi state. And stil is to a some degree.

  • @vincevince801 can u please name same examples and compare to the german history? i am curious what u mean with ur statement, well i understand what u mean i just would like to hear your arguments. thx

  • @fennel456 well for one thing in WWII German pows in America were treated better than black Amarican soldiers. And also black soldiers and black ppl in gerneral were treated alot better in Europe, even in Germany than here at home.

    I have lived in 4 diffrent countries and i will tell you as a black man America is one of the most ignorant and hatefull places.

  • @fennel456 just so you know there was a law which banned marraige between europeans and black people known as miscengenation this was part of the "jim Crow Laws" and hitler had a small thing in Nazi Germany Known as Misclinge which was children of mixed marraigesand it was illegal...........Misclinge...­miscengenation.....notice a bit of a similarity there....just saying...

  • @tiesin09 I disagree. It's the same now as it was back then. The constitution is only a piece of paper that's to be followed at the convience of the government. The constitution was trampled on back then as it is now. That has to change!

  • (REDFESTIVA) They act like your mum when you were sticking your damn head out of her pussy to join the racist killers. YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE BASTARDS WHO WANT BLACKS NEVER TO OPPOSE WHITE DEVILISH OPPRESSION, GO SCREW THE DEVIL WHO BROUGHT YOU IN TO THIS PLANET. So sitting in a restuarant is acting doom?YOU SOUND LIKE A FRUSTRATED SLAVE MASTER,IDIOT

  • We blacks succeeded together with the whites who have always been against the demons who institutionalised racism.We the good blacks and white are winning on and will always win, until the likes of Hitler in the system are out of Power.The last was Bush and few left,they will soon all die out. Let humanity rein

  • What are you talking about we Blacks and together with Whites. Are you forgetting that the vastly greater half of the White race is what oppressed Blacks for 4 centuries in this country up until about 35 years ago you fool. Blacks haven't succeeeded in shit. They're just not being treated like animals and Whites have labeled that as being treated as equals. They neglect the fact that they ghettoized the Black race as seen today by withholding their grandparents from all things good

  • they harp on making Blacks look bad in today's society because a lot of them are criminal which of course stems from poverty and struggles that their race brought on. They disregard the true criminal, depraved acts of lynching children and women, murdering and brutalizing children, raping women, numerous unjustified jailings, firehosing people down, setting dogs on people, etc. all legalized! If you think Whites have changed for the most part, I invite you to look on any internet posting site in

  • which Black people are even so much as the focus. Don't bother have conversations with any of them about it because most of them stubbornly deny

  • Then why is it that when people discriminate, especially most white people at that time, they are not "doomed"?

  • "They don't deserve to be used as pawns by politicians." That is so true! Too bad our government does not listen to the people who are the majority voters and who pay the most taxes. Communism by any other name.

  • Waw! They all were so brave!

  • Imagine getting arrested for sitting in a restaurant or shooting yourself in the leg!

  • Comment removed

  • you dont live in america do you?

  • Quite funny Racism in UK, England, Oldham.

    watch?v=79ja9DfwMuo

    UNITE AGAINST FASCISM

  • Thats Not Right

  • wow that's just sad

    apparently God see's no color, and how can they be say they are religous!!!!

  • do u think u can email me this?!?!?!

    i need it for a school projecttt

  • This is what you call conservatism and this is the what the republican party wants to go back to.

  • Dear Edwardo Alvarez,

    You do know that Jim Crow laws would've included Latinos too...right? ALVAREZ...

  • to edwardoalvarez22:

    So, being respectful and polite is not how a human being should act? Can you please explain to me why you say this?

  • Okay. I will explain why I feel this way. Haven't you notice that everywhere Black people go the make it a less attractive place to live and they are responsable for most of the violant crimes commited in the U.S. In every city of this country when you go to a Black neighborhood is always in a very horrendious shape.Building falling apart,Drug Dealer in every coner, Drive by shooting every hour, In a Black neighborhood, it always a Hell Whole. Yes, they sould be discriminated.

  • Hey, there's one of those in every race. You just don't see it. The point is, black people aren't the problem, stupid humans are... and there are A LOT of stupid humans in this world, not just one race mind you.

    (so does that mean everyone should be discriminated against?)

  • Are the blacks responsible for all the banks that are collapsing idiot,you do not know those guys are criminals,or crimes commited by whites are never recognised? You are used to being entitled but now u must work for it,besides the nation is drowning and you have to go and beg either from mexicans, Chineses or Iraquis.People like you should be rehabilitated or eliminated.YOU ARE HITLER IN THE MAKING AND B4 WE KNOW U WILL ALL OVER THE JEWS THEN BLACKS LATER.

  • You know what your problem is...you're too ignorant to realize that by judging the behavior of people based on their race and color of their skin is simply...stupid. Should I label your ethnic group as ignorant and stupid just because of you? See what I mean? Also, not to mention that many Afro-Americans paid a heavy price for a lot of the liberties that other minorities partake of today. Think before you speak. This is coming from a Latino....by the way.

  • edwardoalvarez22 I GUESS USING PEOPLE LIKE SLAVES IS BAHAVING LIKE HUMANS.if so, then the pussy u come out of surely stinks,and the smell contaminated ur mind during birth. Go die,a black rules you as we speak

  • People especially adults were very unkind and cruel to people of color and it was not right! I do not care how old you have to be or how young you could be but it was not right for them to say just a thing. We are as one and should not be discriminated by our looks!

  • around the world, most people live in segregated neighborhoods, even in nations that pride themselves for their tolerance such as the UK. likewise, most nations have plenty of diverse neighborhoods, even Germany, Japan and the US.

    no ethnic group or race has a monopoly on bigotry, neither is any perfectly tolerant.

  • Hello, what an amazing video... I am currently writing a book on the Jackson movement in mississippi, particularly the "SIT-IN" that involved a man named John Salter... very interesting....

    Im wondering if you could tell me where I could find more video like this, or if you have any! Its AMAZING!

  • hey can you get back to me when you have finished this book i would love to read it

  • Not writing a book but its a good idea.

  • any news on the book?

  • Comment removed

  • These Folks have a right to keep there children away from Black Kids because blacks are a bad influence every where the go and that's a fact. America was a safe place to live because they kept Niggers in there place. White women ware safe from being raped or killed like in the O.J. Simpson Case.

  • where did you get this? this is fantastic footage.

  • I have purchased so much footage over the years there is no way I can recall where it came from. Glad you liked it.

  • @trancelucid1  - i found it doing research for one of my films
