My name is Thomas Nixon. My cousin is reverend E.D. Nixon. He was the organizer of the Montgomery bus boycott. My grandmother told me a lot about those times as she lived through it. She also knew Rosa Parks.

A Vlog Everyone Should See, And To Never Let This Happen Again!!.. I Was 9 Years Old In 1963.. I Could Not Understand, And I Am 65 Years Old Today.. Still Can Not Understand Such Hate !.. God Help Us!!!.. Thank You...

Thank you Jordan. A sad time, but not to be forgotten.

Your vlog brought up an array of emotions with me. Heartache, sadness, anger. You showed the sheer brutality; YET, the determination and courage of all those who who fought against injustice. Blessed are the peacemakers...

💯 Much appreciated that you're covering various types of celebrities. It's all American history regardless of color!

The history of the past was not all happiness and fun times. Times like this were also a huge part of our history as well. As sad as it was and is still in some places. Think you Jordan for doing a vlog about something that most wouldn't vlog. Keep up the good work and stay true to yourself.

What a moving vlog and touching tribute. Difficult to find words to express the feelings you captured in this vlog today. What an inspiring vlog. It showed the indomitability of the human spirit and the perseverance of the human soul. A time in history that should never be forgotten. The statues truly illustrate and capture those moments in history and what is lost when hate consumes the mind and overrules the heart. What an incredible vlog today, and done with such reverence and respect. Thank you so much Jordan.

This is one of the saddest but significant videos you have ever done. TY

Great vlog. My parents participated in civil rights events in Birmingham.

An excellent vlog!! Youth of today must be reminded that people back in the day fought for the freedom of today. We must never take our freedom for granted. I lived through those times. It was a whole different world back then. Thank you for sharing this Jordan

Red, and yellow, black and white we are precious in his sight Jesus loved the little children of the world. Great vlog Jordan.

Jordan, thank you so much for doing this much needed vlog. I remember my grade school in Missouri desegregating when I was in second grade. Some lasting friendships were made that wouldn’t have happened had this not taken place. It saddens and grieves my heart to remember our nation’s history. Your sensitive narration of these horrible times is just perfect. I would love to visit this museum and the church some day.

Such a beautiful park. The statues of the 3 clergymen is phenomenal. Such a sad time for many. Such an amazing vlog, Jordan. I saw real segregation in Mississippi in the mid 70s. I was appalled to say the least. I'm glad you did this vlog. We are all equal, no matter our color, or beliefs. Thank you. Much love to you and Jah ❤❤❤❤🦁

Lived through it. Glad these monuments are in these locations now. We should never forget what was given, and what was taken in Americas on going struggle for equal rights for all peoples. Thank you Jordan for helping to keep history alive. You might want to vlog the Freedom Riders and the summer murders. However, it might stir negative opinions, just a heads up.

Thanks for shining the light on those very dark times in our history. Need to keep historical facts alive, and not swept under the rug. Great vlog Jordan ☮️

What a humbling vlog, I'm lost for words, it was a troubling time then, and the kids, how brave. Fantastic work, Jordan.😎🐶

🦁 Jordan, BRAVO again, for this vlog! 👏👍👏 In college, I did two speech presentations on Martin Luther King’s famous “I Have A Dream Speech” and the other was about Harriet Tubman. The vicious dog artwork is profound. The Artist captured his artwork’s intention to remind those of the fear that the protestor’s endured due to the attack dogs. As a Nurse and Human Being, I do NOT look at people due to the color of their skin, sexual orientation or preference or their group affiliation...We ALL bleed the same color. Treat people with respect and dignity. We NEED more kindness in the World. Another, GREAT vlog 🦁 Jordan. Give 🐒 Jah some belly rubs for me.

💋Fantastic vlog! Thank you for always giving your best! ~Blessings Love and Light 💖Carli

I was honored to be at the dedication of the MLK, Jr. Statue in Kelly Ingram Park in 1988. I was a young woman working my first job. The civil rights institute had not been built and I took several photos of the event that day. I was at the dedication of the Civil Rights Institute and have recorded many events at the 16th Street Baptist Church including the 50 Years Forward tribute that happened in 2013. That was when the 4 Spirits statue was dedicated. I met and interviewed Rev. Shuttlesworth many times. The two boys that were killed in 63 were at different parts of the city. One was close to Sloss Furnaces the other was more in the country west of Birmingham in a town called Docena. Lots of history and stories about people in Birmingham.

Birmingham Civil Rights - Vlog Jordan the Lion, What a fantastic vlog and yes, you are right... a wonderful museum, beautiful, somber and honest tribute to Martin Luther King and other African Americans killed for fighting for their human rights. MLK, a great man who made an important impact on America by fighting for human rights. I wish Martin Luther King was alive today. I read your comments from this You Tube vlog and the wonderful comments and tribute by the viewers/Patreons heartfelt tribute to your work here that cannot be duplicated or stated any better. I think this is an award winner and I know that is not why you vlog, to win awards, you are not a documentarian, and you vlog what interests you nevertheless; Sir, you have taken me to a place I never would have seen, you have taken all to a place that needs to be seen. Your delivery was perfect showing an ugly deplorable part of history and events that are still taking place in present America. Bless you, the abused African Americans, the ancestors of African Americans and all those who suffered living through any prejudice in history and in present times.

Jordan thank you SO much for this vlog! Great job! Thanks for showing the statues of the 4 little girls. There was a 5th little girl who was in that basement bathroom when that bombing happened. She is Addie Mae Collins sister Sarah Collins Rudolph. No one mentions her but she survived and lost an eye. I'm facebook friends with her and her lovely husband Mr George Rudolph. They seem to be real good people. They live outside Birmingham in Forestdale. Again THANK YOU for this one!

Sad indeed, but you did a fantastic job highlighting what occurred.

Awesome history lesson. Unfortunately there is so much hate still. Thank you Jordan.

jordan i live in alabama an hour from birmingham thank you for showing the world this ... ..

Powerful visual imagery of injustices perpetrated by the help of the state and a vivid reminder that yes, we've made great strides in overcoming racism but it's still very much, unfortunately, alive and well. Thank u Jordan for this "socially conscious" themed vlog. You rock!

Powerful vlog. Thanks for sharing.

A very well done vlog Jordan filled with a time not to be forgotten.

Thank you Jordan brought tears to my eyes! So very sad

Powerful. Jordan, you bring things back to the forefront with your vlogs, and your unique to you presentation is so real. That is what we all look forward to everyday. Thank you.

Beautifully done Jordan

Excellent coverage! Thanks, Jordan!

I really was moved by this vlog. So much history, so much violence just for the basic rights that should have been theirs from the start. I was young when this all took place so I really wasn't paying attention. Throughout the years I have learned some of this history but you really brought it to life. I think schools should show this so these kids would really know what hate looks like. Thank you

Whew, that bus exhibit, wow

Jordan enjoying history & humidity in the deep south. These are brilliant monuments to those who gave so much for equality. Nice.

Thank you for this vlog, a very powerful reminder of what hate & fear can do and what everyone can do to stop it happening. You explaining everything gave a better understanding of what the fight was for RIP to the one's who stood up for freedom,injustice and the innocent. Well done Jordan.

Loving your visit to these museums & parks in Alabama. They truly represent the testimonials of many amazing people.

What a wonderful vlog. We need to be reminded of these times, so that it doesn't happen again. Let us not forget. Very well done!!

Jordan, you never cease to amazes me, thank you for vlogging this, it is a sad reminder of the past. I hope we can all learn from it and be kind and loving to all people.

Awesome vlog today!

Fine job Jordan! If I get the opportunity I will go to that museum, I remember all of this happening. I was 6 or 7 - and i remember how confused I was as to why they were hurting so many people. I thank you for sharing this!

Bravo Jordan! Bravo Birmingham! Powerful story telling - the park’s sculptures put us in the shoes of those who lived this history. Their spirit speaks.

Excellent vlog thank you Jordan !

Jordan People seem to forget those words,even today. Liberty and justice for 'ALL'.The statues say it all,exactly what was going on during those tumultuous times.God bless everyone.

Jordan thank you so much for this vlog!

Great job covering this today, Jordan. I lived through those times, but only on TV and in the newspapers...so hard to see again, but thank you for bringing it to those who didn't live at that time. No one should have been treated the way those poor people were.

We shall never ever forget. Jordan, this is your most important vlog. It touched my heart! Ty for sharing this sad but important part of our American history.

Awesome volg loved it. This was a very sad time in history.

*BRAVO JORDAN*! This is one of the most powerful & important Vlogs you've ever done. Covering such a vast array of such world changing events. Thank you so very much.

Absolutely heart warming and wrenching at the same time. You did soo good!!!❤❤❤❤

THANKS FOR THIS WONDERFUL INFORMATIVE VLOG!!

Great vlogs man, steady cam, historical significance, and your the eyes and camera for those that isn’t able to make the drive to these places.

Extremely well done and eye opening!

Jordan, thanks for doing this vlog. 👍🏻👍🏻

Hi Jordan, I'm an Alabaman, from 2 hours from Birmingham. Welcome to the south! We're glad you came here, to make an awesome vlog. 😎👍🏼❤️God Bless you.

Very well done, Jordan...thank you for this one. 👍

Your vlog is so multifaceted and educational and you have such a kind and loving spirit. Keep shining.

Such a touching vlog Jordon and thank you for revisiting such an important part of history. God Bless MLK and his followers for their courage and grace.

Horrific events that need to be shared and remembered. Might be your best vlog.

Thank you Jordan, This was excellent to see. Thank you so much.

Man, glad to be back on and watching, it has been a while since I’ve been here. I’ve subscribed to Breck a while ago, and watched him. But been in the hospital the last few weeks and haven’t had much energy.. but I’m back watching.. Blessings!

Wow, for me that was as heartbreaking today as it was back in (1963). Thank you so much for sharing this Jordan, it's something that I never will forget, this was A very good blog.☺️(vlog).

Thank you,am glad they haven't taken down those statues. They have so many others...

Thank you!! Very moving and our family will make plans very soon to visit!

I cried all the way through this museum when I toured it, as well as while watching your vlog now, years later.

Thank you Jordan for such a touching vlog. I've lived in AL all my life but I was like 3 years old when all of this took place. I plan to make a visit to this museum soon. I'm only about 2 hours away. Thank you again Jordan!

Excellent video. I am going to make it my business to get to Birmingham to see these sites. So much respect to those warriors who kept their Eyes on The Prize.” There is an excellent documentary on You Tube called “4 Little Girls” that tells the story of those girls, that day and what led to that day.

Wonderful vlog, Jordan.

What a special vlog! Jordan, you did good

Amazing Vlog Jordan. Very nicely put together. My thoughts and prayers are with all the victims may we never experience anything similar

Great Vlog. Thank you for taking the time to vlog this. I always enjoy your videos.

Hi Jordan, a brilliant vlog, very moving. Great vlog Jordan.

A sobering vlog, and a powerful reminder that change comes at a price. And that it can happen again, if we don't step up and say something. Thank you so much Jordan, for taking us here. It was so personal and powerful. Seeing the statues of Martin Luther King Jr. and the four girls and seeing the Church touched me so much.

Great great vlog Jordan I always wanted to see this ❤ it thank you

Cool vlog...very cool..thanks for sharing some history

Great great vlog Jordan Respect thank you

Excellent Vlog Jordan. Thank you

this was amazing and touching thank you for sharing :)

Thank you so much for these vlogs,being from Alaska I haven’t heard much about this. I love your videos, I have learned sooo much.

Wonderful job, Jordan. They say that history forgotten is doomed to be repeated. As our world today becomes more and more intolerant and hate-filled, it becomes more and more important to remember the dark times and what people were able to do to overcome it. Bless you for bringing this incredible place to us!

That was a wonderful tribute to MLK and all that suffered. I am not prejudice at all. We were not brought up that way and I made sure to instill the same with my kids. It's so sad even today that people can be so ignorant. There's too much hatred even today. I will never understand why we can't all have compassion towards one another. Thank you Jordan for this vlog. God Bless you and much love to you and your family...

Beautifully done my friend. ✌🏻♥️

My uncle marched with, and was friends with Dr Martin Luther King Jr. What an honor. Such a sad time in our state's history. All of God's people are to be loved and respected, and the color of our skin makes no difference! ❤️🙏🏼

Sad part of our history. Thank you for reminding us. 😥

Thank you for this Vlog! Sweet Home Alabama ❤❤

Wonderful vlog Jordan

Amazing vlog Jordan! Brought tears to my eyes,but it is history...My daughter's and I have seen MLK Jr and his wife burial place in Atlanta,GA and the MLK Jr museum that is right across the street...his childhood home is down the street and the shoe store his father took him to...I hope I can maybe make a trip to Birmingham when I am down south this summer

This is a super powerful vlog and needs to be watched at least twice to absorb it all. I was part of a betwixt and between generation where we were too young to be told anything about this and the school system, anyway, wouldn't know how. I was 4 when JFK was killed, and in 3rd grade when MLK was killed and school integration began. Nothing was ever explained to us. Thank you for sharing this with us all. We should all know this as part of our history.

Dr King and leaders with him used strategy - there was a reason behind each action taken. Their resolve against discrimination - the civil rights movement - makes me proud to be an American.

Awesome vlog!! A very sad part of the history of our Country :( Thank You Jordan for sharing

It was my grandfather who took the pictures of the bus. He worked as a photographer for the Anniston Star newspaper. My family endured constant fear from everyone involved. Did his job, then wasn’t like by one group. Did his job, not liked by the others… That’s all I’m going to say about that.

What a great volg. There was so much hate in the world and they're still here that is such a shame. He had such great plans breaks my heart to see how they were retreated thank you so much Jordan for bringing such a fantastic videos

I grew up in era in the 60s. Thank you for this video. 😭❤️

As always, you address sensitive topics with reverence, and respect. Very well done vlog Jordan. When you go to Memphis (even is you do not vlog it) visit the Lorraine Motel/ Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. My wife and I visited it in 2017. Is it the site of the MLK assassination, and museum to the Civil Rights movement. They have the preserved motel room that they were staying in. Thank you for covering this topic and making this excellent vlog!

Another valuable vlog. I especially appreciated your mentions of the Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth - one of the most courageous men of that era and a personal hero, though not as well known as some of the others.

Thank you Jordan for this vlog - very moving and touching. I never knew about those 4 precious girls who lost their lives. I'm so glad someone has made a memorial for them, and that you were able to show it to us all. We must never forget how it was, and never let it happen again. After seeing things like that, I feel ashamed to be white, just like when you showed us the concentration camps of Hitler's, I felt ashamed to be human! Why do people act so atrocious? There are idiots still bombing and shooting people for their "causes", and all it brings is death and heartache. When will they learn? Give Peace a chance to work.

Informative! Thanks.

We need to know the truth of our history so that the evil that men and women do is exposed and stopped. I am so thankful for the brave reverends who led the crusade for racial equality. Thanks, Jordan, for recognizing Reverend Shuttlesworth and Reverend Abernathy. Their brave actions should never be forgotten. There are no words for the admiration I feel towards Dr. King.

❤️ the vlog beautiful

What an amazing vlog Jordan...its so sad what went on. Bless the children who were so brave. Monday is MLK day...We shall overcome! We have moved back in time with this current president. Such a shame. Thank you for this fascinating vlog...the statutes are so very telling in this park. Thank you for taking me there.

Wow! Powerful vlog!
