  • poor bastards, im glad our general population weren't anywhere near like our politicians!

    thank you to the US servicemen who helped us during that time and God bless to the Negro soldiers who put up with so much crap from their own country and still gave it their all.

    Good fucking effort

  • Sad indeed afro-american soldiers have given up so much and still caught hell coming home. No telling what couldve happened if Americans fought together instead of seperately.

see all

    Yeah you know I would/could agree with you about how ugly this world is getting and we all deserve 2012... But instead of wishing upon death on people, wish upon the world would/will get better instead. It's a more positive thing to do, and not so negative.

  • Racist white America !!!This is the history that your so proud of. The kkk mentality still exist to this day.

  • I love this series of video. makes me proud to see that despite a racist government, the people went against their policy and welcomed these soldiers and we got to piss the white Americans off as well. That's always a good thing. Strange hypocricy though when you consider how we treated our own black population.

  • @strez the term the one who ruins it for everyone else reckon applies else

  • This is quite a sad ending , Im black (Ghanaian) and was born in Australia and live here and Australians are really accepting of cultures but every now and again you do get ignorant racist ..... I think if there is anything someone should get from this is that People are people

  • I noticed that the newsreel says that Japan surrendered to the US which if anyone has read the surrender is not correct they surrendered to the Allied Forces as a whole so Australia, Canada, France, The UK, The US and New Zealand all signed it.

  • "Prejudice" is a natural human trait, and isn't necessarily bad (expecting a red burner on a stove to be hot is a form of prejudice), but racism... well, that's just silly...
