OURSTORY

[ntankerable]

I wish..I swear by God that I could have been there just one day in the 60's to see one of those proud days when we stood together side by side in the war for our equality. How do u think all those people that fought( some lost there lives for the cause) feel when they see what our commiunity has become today? God help us all...

[ntankerable]

This vid brought tears to my eyes, i thought about my mom, dad, grand ma, and all those before me that went through this and worse. I was born in the 80's so I did not see the Jim Crow days but my elders did...that means something. they were so dignified, organized, and respected. it made me proud to see us so united...where have those days gone??? why have we degraded ourselves down to clown rappers, thugs, and sold ourselves so cheap???

[Afanlynness]

WHERE IS THE JUSTICE IN THIS. WHAT THE WINE MAKERS KEEP FOR THEMSELVES, IS GIVEN AWAY.HAVEN'T YOU LEARNED YET IT IS ALL PINK ON THE INSIDE

[Adjei88]

how the world lives today is clearly defined by these really dark ages, i ain't a racist in the least, but you have to look at white imperialism and their belief of racial superority from the 18th-20th century to be the cause of all the worlds racial tensions and woes

[hikkiandlee]

[KISstudio12]

[dal4018]

@KISstudio12 THE SO-CALLED HUSBAND OF THAT HIDEOUS WOMAN DIED OF LUNG CANCER SO THERE IS SOME JUSTICE IN THIS WORLD AFTERALL

[Sw88tie]

[sspsllc]

I miss those black men. What's up with all these blingin' blood diamond-wearing punks we got rollin around today?

[dal4018]

@sspsllc Hey LLC they probably didn't have a decent male role model themselves.

[ECMFAM]

@sspsllc

FOR REAL

[dal4018]

@sspsllc They don't have the real knowlegde of why they wear those BLOOD SOAKED DIAMONDS!!!!!!!!! AND WHERE THOSE DIAMONDS CAME FROM

[jowilrob]

Those were the days when men were men. They went to church with their families. Were concerned about their families. Please remember!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[binkybreezy1988]

@jowilrob THEY STILL WAS JUST AS GRIMEY. . .MANT MEN HAD OUTSIDE FAMILIES, BUT HEY AT LEAST THEY MARRIED THEIR MAIN WOMAN

[crowe06]

I just want to tell you thank you for posting this and let you know that I truly appreciate it!! I've always felt strongly about my history, but this just made me want to fight harder for my race. I just wish my brothas and sistas would feel the same way and would stop killing eachother. If we all just came together, we could be an unstoppable force to be reckoned with. So thanks again for posting, I truly, TRULY appreciate it!

[shanlest]

the sad part is black people still dont event understand what things our ancestors had to go through, and its like they dont respect it, killing each other, disrespecting our women, its sad to me.

[justbroadway]

The fault may have been our parents. Mine would never talk about those times with us children. I asked my Aunt why before she died she said they would just laugh at the crazy white folks.I guess it was their way of dealing with the problem. I had one Uncle that lived to be 103 now he would tell me about those times. In my home black history is 365 days a year. I don't want my children to forget..for today they are truly an endagered species. Manchilds life could be cut very short in the USA.

[1candoallth1ngs08]

what kills me is how most of us are so unappreciative of the things our ancestors fought, bled, an died for. like voting. when the polls head around, you have to beg or bribe people into voting.

[19aotearoareppn22]

wowee leecool..im taking my hat off 2 u!!! and as for you ignorass..bow down boy & take it how your mama likes it xxx

[leecool1956]

Facts ignorant white man . Nothing but the facts. Reasearch everything I said concerning your make. Read biology, anthropology. Study something worthwhile for a change. You will see that I told you absoulte truth. How you handle it is up to you. I can take on any racist with truth. You cant stand up to what I say because you see color that's your biggest weakness and I mean it is a weakness that I can exploit.

[leecool1956]

Oh, by the way it is right what i said about creating your kind. Black people are the fathers and mothers of all human kind. Your own white scientist will testify to that. Black skin is dominant you cant take recessive traits and make dominant ones thats impossible check it out WE created your kind you are from the rebellious seed of the black man thats why you think as you do. You were created to cause mischief. You are like spoiled children to us. Immature and childish bloodshedders

[leecool1956]

Everything I said, every word. Your so called hypocrite beliefs in "God" all of it is bullshit. Your upset I exposed you I dont care if you like black people. thats nothing new I dont like many of you either. Not because your white that would make me as ignorant as your wicked kind. I hate base on your deeds and actions. You wish i was a fool that would make it easy for you. Im a real threat Im black, intelligent and sucessful something you will never be. Too bad shithead

kiss my black ass.

[leecool1956]

I just gave you a science/Biology lesson. Check it out yourself You owe your very existence to black people. Without us none of the races would exist. I have no problem with other races except yours. Your a wicked bunch of devils capable of nothing but fucking up things whereever you go. three quaters of the worlds population are people of color. Your outnumbered 11 to 1. Your also the most hated. Look, around your country is going down with your economy. payback is a bitch

[leecool1956]

That's your terminology. Since you did not create me Whatever name you call me is like a child learning to talk for the first time. In other words moron. It makes no sense, you can only name something you created. I call you a devil based on your characteristics not your color. We made you,Dark skin is dominant light skin is recessive. The dominant can make the recessive not the other way around.

When you disrespect a black person you disrespect your father boy. check it yourself

Im right.

[leecool1956]

I know that and your point? This shows the level of beast like behavior your kind is known for. You say god hates niggers? there is no such people that ever existed called nigger. That was made in America the brainchild of hypocrite so called christian whites who professed to "Love God" Devils are not capable of knowing such things. Your kind has a long history of doing such things everywhere you go. This is why you are refered to as "Skunks of the planet earth"

[leecool1956]

Is that all you have to say? Everything I said regarding you is true. Your most likely a product of incest. Which one is your daddy your uncle? no,Grandfather Like I said before devil, get a life and leave your little sister alone. I see why you choose the name ignoramos you are just that ignorant as a fuck

I hate crackers like you. I think people like you need a taste of your own medicine I would love to be the doctor you vile miserable cave dwelling beast.

[leecool1956]

No, god hates devils. Your some of the most vile and disgusting people that ever walked on the planet. Your history is filled with bloodshed and troublemaking. But the good thing is your days are numbered. It has nothing to do with who is going to be President. You say you believe in God? What a damned hypocrite you are. I dont want nothing to do with your god. That spooky formless spook you say inhabits the sky somewhere all bullshit just like everything else you believe in. Nocrackers08

[leecool1956]

Hey devil, the only person that will really eat bullets is you. Like I said before no one gives a shit about your type. Your easy to see thru. Your just an insecure son of a bitch that never accomplished anything, thinks he's entitled to everything because of your lack of pigmentation. I hate crackers like you. So keep you lying cracker lips shut and stay in your fucking place. turd.

[leecool1956]

God hates devils to which you are one. It's your nature we know that. Your a real flesh and blood beast. There is no good in you and your word dosen't mean a damned thing. I know your kind. The only real good thing about your type is that you are open about it unlike some of your brethren who profess one thing and do another. I hate both just the same. You can hate blacks, jews, or anything else as long as you keep it to yourself no one cares what you think devil.

[leecool1956]

What you fail to understand is probably the most important fact. The majority of the welfare cases in this country are poor whites. therefore, it's your people who should get off the pot. I know, many ignorant whites like yourself would like to believe and blame blacks for welfare. Im sure it makes you feel good dosent'it? soory to burst your little bubble check out the facts for yourself before you reply. You will only make yourself a bigger idiot than you already are if you dont.

[evilzlatan]

He hates you even more ....you evil disgusting bitch! Filth! Go and find something to do with your life!

[makezmuzic]

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing it. Such an imporant history. Dr. King is so young in this vid.

[Peachis911]

thank you dr king for changing the world I love youi with all my might witrhout you I wouldn't have my beautiful childrenb and loving husband

[LuckyBlueEyez]

The definition of racist is not any statement that disagrees with a black person. It is thinking that your race is better. Critisism exist in any race and making accusations of racism is NOT a sheild to bounce away truth and fact when it is directed at one because they happen to be black but rather what they are doing. Critisism knows no color and what is done wrong...is wrong ...no matter what the color. Playing the race card is a way of not admitting to your wrong just because you are black.

[LuckyBlueEyez]

Though it was wrong...the way the blacks are reacting now is way after the fact. If we all want to move forward ...we must also move on past the racial injustices of the past as well. To try to reverse the injustice is just going to create once again another race war. To turn the flip side and try to reverse descrimination is doing the very same thing that the blacks fought against in the first place.

[leecool1956]

Simply let bygones be bygones huh?Why not reverse the injustices. They gave the racists unfair advantages they should pay or make some restitution. Your comments make no sense. If someone did wrong to you would you not expect some action to undo that? How would u like someone to do those things to you? how would u feel towards a people who did that? would u forget? would not u expect to have some justice? Why would u expect blacks to want anything less? unless you know what that is u cant talk.

[mervyboorock]

wow we really did come a long way

this makes me cry n i cant stop watchin it

[neneluv115]
