My thoughts exactly :)

Well, in some ways, we never completely stopped making those mistakes 😕.

@Freddy Jones there are far more pressing matters that are still issues today than sitting at the back of the bus. Lol

Democrats ARE repeating the same mistake.

I live in the South, and I think about of the interactions I have, the things I do. I walk where I want, go where I want, I don't take my hat off for anyone. I'm as free as anyone else. Of course, I was born in the 1980s and never lived during Jim Crow. I know enough about Jim Crow to understand that if I had been living back then, as a Black man, I wouldn't have been able to make it. One reason many Blacks left the South during the 1940s and 50s.

@@TheGeoScholar if you're a non white you're still not free.

@@TheGeoScholar I am a non-white, I’m from the south, still live in the south, and I am very free. And very successful I might add.

@@angeldesigns1385 I'm talking about now vs back then.

@@TheGeoScholar lol my apologies sir sorry about that. That response was actually aimed toward “it’s me Trump” But yes I completely agree with your statement. my whole experience with being born and raised in the south, as a man of color, has been nothing but what I have made it to be.

Not surprising. My grandpa grew up in the deep south, generally speaking, black people were below everyone else, even below native Americans. Incredibly sad how black Americans have been treated.

All the toxicness came from Europe

These collection of videos are amazing.

Lucky you guys had drinking fountains. They make us buy water now.

Huh. Small world. Victor Colias is my grandfather. Little Greek man who came over here, and supposedly moved to Waco because he didn't think Dallas was going to grow. Apparently, prophecy wasn't his forte.

@@Rotchkis Well I went to West Jr. with Mike Colias, are you his cousin? They lived over on 43rd and Grim. Mr. Vic built his home in 1951 just five houses east of the home my mother bought back in 1963.

Sounds about right, yes. Never quite been able to keep straight in my head how I'm related to anybody though. Greek practice has only two categories: cousins and more cousins.

You just found a relative on KZfaq!

You should just move to another school, these people will never care or respect people that look like you.

Your thoughts are much appreciated, Alan. It is the thousands of interviews that I did over my life that gave me a very broad perspective of different people's points of view. I tried to appreciate every point of view that isn't demeaning of others. David Hoffman - filmmaker

Alan Hale I think that “Super Americans” statement effected everyone deeply. Truly a badass statement!

David Hoffman this channel is a treasure of info.

The segregation of the 50s is not comparable to the graduation ceremonies of today. I'm assuming you're American, and I'm ashamed to see this type of comment under this video.

@J. FK Even if segregation were to come back, it will not be like it was in the 1950's and before.

@@314jrock - Yes, and it will be just as stupid. Everyone has their own reasons for racism, black people aren't immune to it.

@@314jrock if it comes back it will probably be mutual at this point

So true. The South did not "own" segregation

@@saltydawg7078 They most certainly did. It was their brainchild adopted only in certain other areas. Dont try to shift the blame or make out like the entire US had the same views. Boston is one city not the entirety of new england.

@M S This interview is from 1989, after the Reagan era and its pandering to white backlash had begun reversing the gains of the Civil rights movement, in which Wilkins had taken an active part. But had it been from 2019, he would have had abundant evidence that his faith in "the basic decency of white people" had indeed been misplaced. A country that elects an outspoken bigot, and stands up for him when he defends the bigotries of many of its citizens, as this country has done since 2016, has very little credibility in the good faith department.

The doctrine of "separate but equal" was overturned by a series of Supreme Court decisions, starting with Brown v. Board of Education of 1954. It was bad because it was separate but equal.

@@piyh3962 just because judges say it's wrong doesn't make it wrong. Separation is not wrong.

How about you read Brown v Board and see that it clearly lays out that separation is inherently unequal and damaging to minorities. Fuck you.

Then how were blacks were better off?

@@colinmcom14 it was so damaging to them that once it was repealed their communities and relationships fell apart completely. "Fuck you" too.

Whites aren’t oppressed in any type of way or form so why do they need a month? This comment is utterly stupid .. and to comment this on a video about racism at that

And even more I bet he's a Democrat.

Chris M. Nope. I don’t think so

Both parties, up until the 40s at least, were racist you absolute numpty. It was Truman, a democrat, who really kicked off desegregation, which split the southern Democrat party. And it was the Democrats overall who mostly tried to curb segregation and racism starting in 1948 (credit goes to Eisenhower who accomplished some desegregation in '57). Basically it was Southern politicians from BOTH parties who voted against desegregation etc legislation, not just the Dems. In the presidential elections of the year the Civil Rights Act was signed on July 1964, 94% of nonwhite voters voted for Johnson over Goldwater. But Goldwater did manage to win five Southern states in that election, which was very unusual for a Republican at that time. How did he do it? By opposing the Civil Rights Act! So when put in historical context it's both more complicated than the pea brained "buhh, Democrats are the racist party" and in fact the opposite is true - overall it was the Dems who tried to combat racism and segregation, so much so that they split their own party and lost the South over it.

The goddamn slave owners were Democrats. They (blacks) were emancipated by a republican.

@@batman91500 Yup. I think so: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Wilkins

Defect In Design 90% of people in general were racist in the south during that time period, do u really think Republicans were the knights in shining armor that cared for black people? No, it was a small percentage of democrats who started the Civil Rights Movement (on a political scale). By the way that was an absolutely sweet play on words you did at the end there with the “damn”ocrats” line. democrats? More like “dumb”ocrats. Am I right? Obama? More like OBUMMER. Ha haaaa Let that sink in people...

You’re right the south was predominately racist. But the way identity politics are played nowadays people need to understand that Democrats are the ones holding black people back by giving them food stamps and free abortions

Defect In Design It is very obvious that you know absolutely nothing about President Lincoln or history to know that the term “republican” meant something completely different when it was founded vs today’s Republicans. Imagine thinking the Republican Party was the same in 1860 as it is in 2018. You’ seem so emotionally attached to this democrat vs republican ideology, both parties are corrupt trash at this point just face it

@@2hot4u435 Do you mayhaps have rabies?

@@oprecourt LOL nice job completely editing your comment to make me look like an idiot mentioning Lincoln, which was a response to your absolutely out of touch and idiotic point. sly fucking move lmao

It’s HARD to find decent gring0s. I stopped looking yrs ago y’all are for the most part the same.

The Union/ North didn't finish the job properly.

You are increasing the divide and making the hole bigger. Demanding reparations (an impossible task) and calling for statues to be removed (needlessly inflaming tensions and giving people the inch that they will use to take a mile (already talks of removing lincoln, jefferson and roosevelt) You are increasing the divide and continuing the hate. But that is what people like you want. They want the conflict and they want the hate. Because you are trying to fill the hole in your own life with conflict. People who had nothing to do with the actions of their ancestors are not going to lie down while you attempt to invoke your own tyranny as payback on them for something they didnt do and dont believe in. You will stoke the tensions endlessly. Which again, is what you really want. Dont be surprised if in fifty years your ideology is as much the villain as theirs was.

@@cowafungus8104 I can't say as it would probably be deleted again. However it boiled down to the quality of life in big cities such as Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, Baltimore, and other similarly populated cities and towns and the failure of the ethnic group featured to make them centers of peace and prosperity as predicted by the speaker.

Damn your comments being deleted?

Just back down. I've never heard of a person coming back to a video to point out their comment was removed. I would have made no judgement of your character, nor would I have known anything about you had you just ... not checked back on your comment, as the majority of people do. But instead you come back to this interview about segregation to complain about your comment being removed on KZfaq. Instead of commenting on the speaker, on anything relevant, you make some half-assed remark about how you speak "the truth" and you speak based off "facts and data". Not only have you demonstrated you certainly do not act off of "facts" nor "data", but you've demonstrated the true reason why you clicked on this video. Shame on you, young man.

​@@smellyarmpit23​ If you don't think videos and comments are beng edited/removed read the conservative sites where this censorship has happened again and again to others. You must have missed another part of the comment/reply where I wrote, " ..However it boiled down to the quality of life in big cities such as Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, Baltimore, and other similarly populated cities and towns and the failure of the ethnic group featured to make them centers of peace and prosperity as predicted by the speaker. ' I also mentioned death rates of black men by other black men, single, welfare mothers and their lack of child care/guidance, and overall crime statistics, etc. All of this data is public record and it is available without me citing it if one can Google for the info. I also mentioned the fact that a DNA analysis shows I have a Sub-Saharan section in my genotype. My Italian grandfather who had a slightly swarthy skin, and dark black curly hair used to tell me it was because it was only a short swim from Africa to Italy. As a young man I appreciate advice from my elders, however since I recently turned 78 with a background of advanced college degrees and successful businesses, and a similarly educated wife and professional children. So let me know what qualifies you to judge me with your half-assed critique.

@sometimesweetdanita No one cares what you think. How about that?

And sadly the whitebpeople that claim to be Christians are trump supporters. Seeming only to care about the preservation of ws and not Godly morals. This isn't a black or white thing. It is the great falling away that is written about.
