It's hard to comprehend stuff like that happening in America,I know it happened and worse things that happened even right into the 1960's.I just can't comprehend the hatred,why in the world hate a person or a race of people like that ?
God bless your granny ! I see this video is about 3 years old is Granny still with us ? God bless her !
...GOD Bless your grandmother ...we must remember to remember. Things may not be as bad as they were but they are FAR from where they need to be; we as a people need to be more positive AND proactive about continuing the living out of "the Dream."
That hurts my heart for her.That generation was abused mentally.I was raised up north and never heard of it till I moved to the south.I live in Mississippi now and I will be so glad when all the slave shacks fall down.I know the pain and hurt will be their long after they fall.I pray you have peace now and are not scared anymore.God bless you.
Nice video! Glad to see your grandmother still has the ability to share these stories with you at the age of 92. Just remember, there are a lot of evil people of all races and there are a lot of beautiful people of all races. Hopefully in life, you spend more time with those that have more love than hate in their hearts. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for documenting this beautiful woman's experiences. It's so important to know and remember where we've come from in order to know and realize where we're going. (She reminds me so much of my grandmama...I miss her very much. Treasure her while she's here!)
As cold as this may sound I think all racist groups regardless of skin color should be taken out and shot. I have really enjoyed your videos as you make a lot of sense. I don't agree with all that you say, but then again as you said, it is your opinion and you're entitled to it. At the end of the day we are all human beings and I just can't understand why we can't get along. It really upsets me. I'm white and I don't have a prejudice bone in my body.
As a mother, I can't imagine what your great-grandmother went through. Trying to prepare her kids for God knows what. Feeling helpless to do anything to protect her kids. I was born and raised in Europe, and race is kind of a non issue there. And as much as I love America and what it's done for me, I'm kind of sad to raise my children in a country with that kind of history.
this is so cool. my grand parents r dead aand this stuff is intrerting especialy when somebody was ther i mean it was a TERRIBLE THING but its inresting she was there
HEY GRANNY THANKS FOR YOUR WISDOM! MY GENERATION IS LOST THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US. AND GRANNY U LOOK GOOD MAM HOPE IF LIVE TO BE UR AGE AND BE AS BEAUTIFUL AS U. LUV U GRANNY.
God bless your granny, I hope the young people of today watch this, and see how it was, and how it is, whites think they are so much better than all other races, but really they are not! Fear is what drives their hate! On youtube all I see is whites with the hate remarks, never blacks or any other races. Cowards! Not all whites, just those racist ones! I love all my brothers and sisters of all races, life is too short to be hating someone for no good reason.
my grandmom is 81 and she still remembers growing up but she told me she will never tell me about the kkk my graet grand dad was awhite blue eyed man so she really hates him its real sad so i try not to talk to her about it
yes this happen and was this in georgia ashmy street...lol and she is wonderful 92 she still got it... we need more of this ppl from the past who can tell us how it is. and pretty much a little has changed but we all still living in fear now its the blacks turned on blacks now... we dont stick together no more got kids killing other kids over a block or a color. one thing I can say about the black folks back then they new how to stick together!
How interestingly ironic --- Granny describes hiding from the Klan in the back room of her house, when she was a child. It's kinda like black kids in the inner cities today, in the back rooms, hiding from the Bloods & the Crips. My, my, my.......how things have gone all the way around for Granny. White gangs replaced with black gangs. She must be delighted AND proud!!! Nowadays, the Klan just watches it all happen on "Cops" TV show -- blacks killing blacks, while the Klansmen rest their backs.
@SteveLLW While the klan is watching from their pits, the government is robbing and stealing their shit too. Ahhhh ... how lovely it is. Not to mention the amount of white men that kill and molest their own children and wives. Yeah, check that. Carry on.
@SteveLLW It's funny if you think the Cops show is legit,they probably only go for the black crimes,trust me there are lots of white crime cases aswell as black crime cases.The media is just making blacks look bad all the time,but some whites are caught doing crime now,I guess the media is now focusing on both white and blacks.
wow she looks incredibly good at her age in her right mind and everyting........i work in a nursing home , im a cna and i cant tell you how many people are there that are in the 70's and 60's 80's and can't hardly hold their self up right or talk they are full body care .........so bless her she looks like she could go on past 100 and i would not be surprized if she did!
it because the kkk are not a terrorist orginization you dumb nigger shut the helll up i watch video i see some good for nothing black thing talking shit she old as dirt like she can remember what happened
That is very horrible what your grandmother had to go through. Very very sad indeed and the kkk are major morons. Nobody should have to endure being a slave. Their is nothing worse than being a slave other than dieing a horrible death. But let's admit that the fact of the matter this was about money and corruption. Most slaves were slaves to the plantation owners who produced propaganda about blacks making a good slave to try socialize it. The truth is they would have used any race to make $
You go Sweet Granny! I have no idea if the KKK still is around but either way yesterday or today they are a bunch of white folks that are uneducated and really stupid. By the way AtlantaSistah, you keep on trucken with the blogs.....
Irish history is very kind of the same, I remember my grandmother tellin my stories of her mother and grandmother passing messages and hiding guns for the IRA mind you not the scumbag IRA that are just gone but the old IRA the ones that one Irelands freedom
its too bad grannies parents didnt know how to use a gun--blacks who were armed had some protection from the KKK--some northern whites were too afraid to lose votes if they were to help blacks.
How old is this lady? If she's anything over 80, she looks great and is sharp as a tack!
I wonder if the KKK, a "white" Christian organization, realizes that divine judgment (double-portion) is coming against America for their activities? Already there is a judgment momentum building against Mystery Babylon and KKK is on Creator's radar screen. Watch-out! Bullying black people is no longer being allowed.
aaawww she is so cute! I luv yer granny. People need to talk to the elders in the family more thatz how u learn yer history. now days kids just don't seem to care...but its yer history !
I am deeply saddened when I see or hear Black Americans defending the barbaric behavior of the KKK. They ARE/WERE serial murders, they ARE/WERE serial rapists. Yes it was unwarranted. I feel for some of our brothers and sisters who think was all fairy tale.
Please thank your beautiful Grandmother for bringing to a lost generation the wisdom that we are so disconnected from, and thank you for your wonderful videos, all of them. It amazes me to read how many misinformed BLACK idots leave rude comments, you know they are the ancestors of the Slaves, not the Captives, there is a big differience in the two, the Slave wanted to stay, the Captives could only think of freedom! Thanks again Sistah keep doing what you do!
The reason you don't know the history of the KKK is because the liberals own the media and have corrupted the schools and universities. Most people these days think the KKK was a bunch of Republicans doing all that evil. When in fact, it was exactly the opposite.
It would be funny if the KKK tryed to March Down A Neighborhood And All these Gangsta's Just jump Outta Nowhere and Start Beatinq the Fuck out of Em' LOL.!
Really? That one word did it for you? Hmmm ... you may need to get a life. A real one. Surely your sexual orientation is not all of who you are. And no one asked about it either. But anyway, that comment was made because many times those behind the white sheets were participants in activities that they denounced. Nothing against gay people. But definitely something against hypocrites. Carry on ...
The democrats started the KKK, thank God for Republicans like Martin Luther King Jr....that fought for civil rights! Do you realize that Senior Senator Byrd ,a member of the KKK! Byrd is President pro tempore of the United States Senate, a position that puts him third in the line of presidential succession, behind Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi! Byrd joined the Ku Klux Klan when he was 24 in 1942. Even a member of the KKK can get elected by the democrats...Change we Can Believe in? Scary is it?
Many folks try to say King was a Republican. That has not been proven. But even if he was, the question is would he be one today. HELL NO! Yeah, change is possible. But folks get scared when they see it is no longer all about them. These tea party folks are no more than folks who are scared of becoming not so important. In other words white folks who are used to being in the drivers seat and now have to step aside so real change can be done. That is it in a nutshell.
@AtlantaSistah You think "abortion" was part of Dr. Martin Luther King's dream? Just for example...It's not about white folks or black folks........Do you really think that Dr. Martin Luther King......Would really want you to make that a issue......Let's not go backwards .....need to go forward.....otherwise the "changes" are going in the wrong direction!
I'm not understanding what abortion has to do with this video. In fact it does not. I suggest you find and comment on the right video. of course Dr. King knew race was an issue in this country. That was the reason he started his platform. Lets stop pretending race has no merit in the USA. Lets finally face it and be real grown ups and deal with it. That indeed would be moving forward.
@AtlantaSistah It doesn't so much have to do with the video, more with a comment you made, Dr. Martin Luther King was more conservative, and I was trying to prove that point..He believed anyone should have the chance of equal opportunities for the "Pursuit of Happiness", and that has been realized.."White folks in the driver seat?" You really believe that? Moving forward is when men and woman (white or black) quit blaming their lives shortcomings on others. Everyone has their own "driver seats"
Definitely folks need to be their own driver. No arguement on that one. But lets not be naive and think that there have not been systematic roadblocks when it comes to folks of color. Yeah, we get around it. But why should one have to keep playing this game in 2010. It becomes tiring to the soul. And some folks ain't made of the same tenacity as others. But do know that Black folks continue to strive for greatness. While at the same time calling out the BS.
@AtlantaSistah The Republican party was much different in those days. People have to understand that. Not like the conservative non-sense it is today.
I love you Granny! You are an inspiration to ALL women. Your strength and wisdom speak loudly and clearly. The KKK is a bunch of white moron men who clearly had mental problems. I hope I never see one of those men in their stupid bed sheets.
wow did you just call a woman a ho 069105? wow this is another reason i believe there is a difference between black (which are just people) and niggers(meaning you) look up the word, read the definition and youll understand why i call you that and every other black nigger out there who refers to women as ho's and wears his pants below his waist and points his gun sideways cuz he doesnt know how to shoot. get a life man have more respect....how would you feel if someone called your mama a ho?
i wish i had a grandmother so i could ask her questions and learn more about our history-im black. cause you know they dont really teach you anything about it in school, which is another subject ...but this video was very interesting to me thanks
I wonder if many Neo-Nazi's realize that the European Jews have been race mixing with various white people for many centuries? After all, many American Jews mostly look white. Many white people have a little bit of Jewish in them and don't even know it. Even Hitler had Jewish blood, but he didn't care and still killed the Jews, in actuality, his own people.
I also wonder if these Nazi's realize that mankind started in Africa? Meaning that everyone has ancestors that trace back to Africa.
Dude... Neo-Nazi's not Nazis. Even you don't see big difference, Neo-Nazis are based on the idea of beeing racist and with no mixing races about cultures etc. Nazis weren't "racist" with Jews, but when Adolf Hitler saw that in Germany the most rich people were the Jews, he decided to kill everyone and keep the money. But not the money for himself, it is for his empire, how the fuck you think he get all those weapons, vehicles and men? His father and neither her mother were that rich.
LOL! Not that it matters either way considering this video has not a thing to do with what both of you are talking about. BUT you need a book quick! Education is the key. No need to reply on who was here first. That subject is done on this page. But get your ass a good book quick and stop being in denial. LOL!
Your grandmother is a strong beautiful woman. Her courage in survival is inspiring. But insulting racists by calling them homos? Please believe that I am not trying to downplay the plight of African-Americans in our country's history, but equality must exist for all in order to exist for any. With respect...
I'm not saying it as a disrespect to those that are homosexual. I am saying that they are most likely what they hate the most. It is what it is. Thanks for weighing in.
wow black women aged so well if this was a 92 years old white woman she would be looking so nasty i just love black women will never date a white pale ho
Atlanta Sistah Dios te Bendiga ! God Bless you & your family for the invaluable testimonies of the past in the voice of someone whom actually experienced and witnesed the horrors of racial discrimination as we sometimes experience the demons of discrimination even to this day,its sad but its true. God Bless and keep your grandma in good health until the day He''ll take her from us. un beso y un abrazo para ti. kisses and hugs with respect for you !
Your Grandmother is priceless, this video is such a blessing. Its true what they say, tought times don't last, but tough old Folks do. Wouldn't it just confuse the heck out of the KKK if they did march today, and we all climbed under a KKK clan style sheets, you know for camoflage like hunters use not to be detected by what they are hunting. its not to hard to confuse the KKK its just hard to be that evil ignorant and mean.That and to duplicate the stench of hatred oozoing out of their pores.
Sigh both my grandmothers passed before I was born so I feel bad because I never got that grandma relationship. Anyway my father told me how the KKK came up to his university and tried some shit and him along with his fellow Ques beat their asses! Oh how I would have loved to have seen that.
This makes me want to upload a video of MY grandma. I'm always asking her about her life when she was younger. Though, I don't know if she'd be willing to talk about the KKK, since they killed her mom years ago.
yeah, my people are from Dublin, Ga. And my grandad used to tell me how the Klan used to march up and down his street. His uncle was beat up by KLAN members over the deeds to some property he used to have..Both my grandparents on my DAD side, have died. Its good your getting yours on video, the knowlege they have is priceless
Her passing saddened me no doubt, but her views had to go. Though she was shunned for being the daughter of an italian immigrant she wasn't wise enough to step outside of bigotry. She was very race conscience - why? I can't imagine.
---
Your Granny looks strong yet sweet. Perhaps she can be my YT granny despite the skin color difference.
---
I don't pay heed to such differences, though I'm aware of their historical significance.
My Dad, now deceased was born 1924 in Alabama. His life was a miracle because he was there were some awful incidents around his town and in the day, he says he's seen them and I thank Father-Mother God for his safety. Can you imagine dealing with that crap and being called to serve in the war WWII and then coming home to MORE crap like that?!
It is not surprising that you now have the KKK hatred being seen now since we are about to have the 1st black President. People that I have known for years have said things at I could not believe, supposedly christians. I hope they know that God is not pleased!
I am touched. I used to talk to my grandmother when she was alive and she'd tell me all kinds of stories about her childhood as well as my great-grandmother.
brings back memories.
I jus want to say thank you for sharing your granny with us...means something to me..
grannie is stylish, I love it! I think it's so important to have talks like this with older people because you learn so much. instead of reading stuff out of a Textbook you could hear it from someone whose been through it. Thats Beautiful!
I am very aware of our history in this country but it is always good to hear from the mouth of one of our elders who experienced it. It is always good to have our elders around who can still teach us and show us. Even though we think we know everything sometimes, they show us things we may not have known or show it in a different light. God Bless your grandma.
I loved watching this video, I really miss talking to my Grandmother, who has passed. You are truly BLESSED to have your Grandmother. Thank you so much for sharing.
I LUV IT it is so good to get the truth from those who lived and witnessed these events and that you document it man I have stories that my grandma told me on video and I look back and say man I am so glad I have this on tape evry one should do this with there grandparents thats a real grandma on the onther hand now grandmas are 35 years old (LMAO) but a mess luvd the video
I know that there is more pressing issues in the world and I am glad that you taking them on..but question being that you are from atl how do you feel about the real housewifes of alt? I know its not anything to do with real news but I wanted to get your opinion
Veeery informative and it MAKES YOU THINK how blessed we are today compared to thirty/forty years ago!! Ur grandmother needs her own channel...dats wut she needs bcuz she has dat light dat could grab people attention. Thanks for posting dis sistah!
AtlantaSistah, did you just hear? The feds just busted some skinheads who were plotting to assassinate Obama and kill 88 black people and decapitate 14 other black people.
It's so wonderful to have these stories told by witnesses. We should honor our elders and listen to what they have to say. There's always a wealth of information if you only listen. Your Grannie is adorable and her hair is FIERCE!
It's hard to comprehend stuff like that happening in America,I know it happened and worse things that happened even right into the 1960's.I just can't comprehend the hatred,why in the world hate a person or a race of people like that ?
God bless your granny ! I see this video is about 3 years old is Granny still with us ? God bless her !

The democrats started the KKK, thank God for Republicans like Martin Luther King Jr....that fought for civil rights! Do you realize that Senior Senator Byrd ,a member of the KKK! Byrd is President pro tempore of the United States Senate, a position that puts him third in the line of presidential succession, behind Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi! Byrd joined the Ku Klux Klan when he was 24 in 1942. Even a member of the KKK can get elected by the democrats...Change we Can Believe in? Scary is it?

@talllikelurchis
Many folks try to say King was a Republican. That has not been proven. But even if he was, the question is would he be one today. HELL NO! Yeah, change is possible. But folks get scared when they see it is no longer all about them. These tea party folks are no more than folks who are scared of becoming not so important. In other words white folks who are used to being in the drivers seat and now have to step aside so real change can be done. That is it in a nutshell.
AtlantaSistah 2 years ago
@AtlantaSistah You think "abortion" was part of Dr. Martin Luther King's dream? Just for example...It's not about white folks or black folks........Do you really think that Dr. Martin Luther King......Would really want you to make that a issue......Let's not go backwards .....need to go forward.....otherwise the "changes" are going in the wrong direction!

@canthelpImbeautuful
I'm not understanding what abortion has to do with this video. In fact it does not. I suggest you find and comment on the right video. of course Dr. King knew race was an issue in this country. That was the reason he started his platform. Lets stop pretending race has no merit in the USA. Lets finally face it and be real grown ups and deal with it. That indeed would be moving forward.
AtlantaSistah 2 years ago
@AtlantaSistah It doesn't so much have to do with the video, more with a comment you made, Dr. Martin Luther King was more conservative, and I was trying to prove that point..He believed anyone should have the chance of equal opportunities for the "Pursuit of Happiness", and that has been realized.."White folks in the driver seat?" You really believe that? Moving forward is when men and woman (white or black) quit blaming their lives shortcomings on others. Everyone has their own "driver seats"
canthelpImbeautuful 1 year ago
@canthelpImbeautiful
Definitely folks need to be their own driver. No arguement on that one. But lets not be naive and think that there have not been systematic roadblocks when it comes to folks of color. Yeah, we get around it. But why should one have to keep playing this game in 2010. It becomes tiring to the soul. And some folks ain't made of the same tenacity as others. But do know that Black folks continue to strive for greatness. While at the same time calling out the BS.

I wonder if many Neo-Nazi's realize that the European Jews have been race mixing with various white people for many centuries? After all, many American Jews mostly look white. Many white people have a little bit of Jewish in them and don't even know it. Even Hitler had Jewish blood, but he didn't care and still killed the Jews, in actuality, his own people.
I also wonder if these Nazi's realize that mankind started in Africa? Meaning that everyone has ancestors that trace back to Africa.
blackman4544 2 years ago
Dude... Neo-Nazi's not Nazis. Even you don't see big difference, Neo-Nazis are based on the idea of beeing racist and with no mixing races about cultures etc. Nazis weren't "racist" with Jews, but when Adolf Hitler saw that in Germany the most rich people were the Jews, he decided to kill everyone and keep the money. But not the money for himself, it is for his empire, how the fuck you think he get all those weapons, vehicles and men? His father and neither her mother were that rich.
dgcrew 2 years ago
However, Hitler had no verifiable ancestor that was Jewish. The
Holocaust History site states:
" Few, if any, of the reputable historians on the Holocaust believe
that this is so. It is more likely that Hitler tried to keep the murky
history of his family quite secret because there was a high incidence
of insanity and feeble-mindedness in his ancestors."

Your grandmother is a strong beautiful woman. Her courage in survival is inspiring. But insulting racists by calling them homos? Please believe that I am not trying to downplay the plight of African-Americans in our country's history, but equality must exist for all in order to exist for any. With respect...

Her passing saddened me no doubt, but her views had to go. Though she was shunned for being the daughter of an italian immigrant she wasn't wise enough to step outside of bigotry. She was very race conscience - why? I can't imagine.

Your Granny looks strong yet sweet. Perhaps she can be my YT granny despite the skin color difference.
