So, so, so thankful to see the return of Somewhere Sinister!!!✨🎉🎉🎉✨🙏✌️

To this day my parents have large paintings of Sarah and Sylvester in their living room. True American history Icons.

Basically the same or similar has happened in Ocoee, FL, Tulsa, Wilmington and many many more prosperous Black towns across america. Thank you for telling this story.

I'm happy to hear that some people retained their human nature by helping despite endangering themselves

There’s a movie on this we used to watch in school called Rosewood. It’s worth a watch. My classmates great grandmother was the last remaining survivor. She recently passed.

Good job on getting this out in the open. I'm so happy that the families got some compensation, even though it was not close to enough. Love the series! Thank you...🙏🙌😎🤩🤟

As a Floridian myself. I'm ashamed that this happened regularly 😢. As a caring human being. This is beyond heartbreaking that people are truly MONSTERS😢💔

I must say Rosewood was the most unnerving movie I have ever seen pure terror I would not even watch Django.

At first I thought Rosewood was a malapropism for Greenwood because much of what happened is so similar. The fact that this story could even be confused with a separate incident is infinitely sadder.

Thank you for sharing this story. It needed to be told. 😢❤

Incredibly horrific Florida does not want this history taught in their schools. I cannot say with confidence this horror will not repeat itself.

This is so horrific, I am near tears. I weep that we haven't gained much ground in our humanity in over a century!

I'm "liking" this piece to encourage you to tell the stories and in acknowledgement for your commitment of telling them.

Look up the Black Wall Street Massacre of 1921, the fact that atrocities like these and many more have been , and in some cases still are committed, and denied,literally makes my soul hurt. I wish people would be able to celebrate each other's success and not feel threatened. Thank you again for your eloquent way of bringing these painful stories to the collectives attention. Stay safe out there all y'all.

Firstly, let me thank you for telling the story of Rosewood - it needs to be remembered. Secondly, so glad to see you back!

Somewhere Sinister back in a big way! Thank you for this story.

Wow this so tragic it's making me sick to listen tbh ... but it is told so well and sensitively I listened until the end. Those poor people, I am horrified to know this happened and that is not more widely known about and studied. It's so so sad that those savages were never punished and those poor people never saw a grain of justice. And the description of those white men savages is spot on. Even the Neanderthals were more civilised. God bless every person and their families 💔❤💔

I'm so glad your back on here. 💛 Thank you for all you do.

Bless. I love these somewhere sinister more than this is monsters because there's no cringe interrogation to sit through. 50% of why I'm here is the voice.

I've heard this story. It's horrible. I can't believe people wiped almost an entire town. I think it is disgusting that Florida even had to think about compensating the relatives of Rosewood. Thank you for bringing this out in the open.

Thank you so much for doing this one! Coming from a African American as myself this means alot! i learned more from this story you did actually! Rosewood is very limited on info and background regarding what happened

Glad you're back with this channel. Love all your cases.

So happy to see this series return

Yay! Even though the story is sickening. I’ve been wearing my Somewhere Sinister shirt weekly hoping this video would come soon!❤

Very glad to see you're back. Some of my favorite content.

Yay! I'm getting off just in time to see a fresh Somewhere Sinister!!

Great coverage of this horrible time in history. Thanks for telling it.

Thank you for all the work you put into this, its our job as viewers and american citizens to learn about our own history, and you make it 100% easier to do so!

I lived in that area. The whole area is still doing shitty. Notice how often lakeland, Clearwater, Tampa and Polk county are mentioned in the news. It's called a curse. There's an area around Texas like that too. If you want to look up the lynchings in MANOR, TEXAS around the 20s there's a story of an innocent black man being dragged to death by a car through manor Texas and to this day nothing prospers in that area.

Let's goooo... Been patiently waiting for this .. hands down my favorite tru crime series on KZfaq.. thank you 🤘

Best thing that's happened to me this month having your second channel back

I'm white and from Michigan and heard about this terrible event in Florida history it must never be forgotten

Greetings from Scotland!

How sad! Im shaking from anger listening. What is wrong with people?? Just horrible.

I'm SO glad to see Somewhere Sinister back! Thank you so much, Jiles & Co.!

Jiles is truly the MVP when it comes to presenting and discussing topics that many people find uncomfortable to even think about. Few KZfaqrs are even willing to breach the area that stories like this are rooted in. Especially with tact.

So happy Somewhere Sinister is back.

Hey man, good to see you back. Absolutely love your channel.

We’ve been waiting for this series to come back. This is absolutely horrifying. My god.. how terrible.

Appreciate the work you do to bring awareness to these stories. This and the Mississippi Appendectomy (sp 🙃) were deep and informative 👍🏾

Good Morning, Jiles and Fellow Sinisters!!! (Haha I almost wrote Monsterers) ! 😅😅😅 I've missed this channel! Glad to see new stories again! 💖

Yea! You're back! Great info on this story. You've provided more details about Rosewood than I'd ever heard before, thank you. I love this channel!

My Australian husband, who loves your other channels, had no idea about Rosewood. When this episode started, I gasped and just whispered, "Oh Fck..." He looked at me and asked "What?" I just told him to watch and listen. He was riveted. Not saying a word throughout. When the episode ended. He looked at me and just quietly said "Whoa." I explained that this is the stuff that certain parties in America still want to suppress and deny; the ugly truth they want to keep swept under the carpet. This is the stuff people don't want other generations to learn about and feel angry about because of how brutally wrong it was and is. Keep doing the good work, Jiles.

Thank you Jiles for covering this one,cause I know you will do an amazing job 🙏🏽🙌🏽

You are SO friggin’ AWESOME ❤! I’m so happy you cover excellent stories that should be told!

9+ months! Glad the channel is back. God Bless ❤

I learned about this place while driving by. All that remains is a sign stating what happened.

I know that movies about true events usually put a spin on certain things for dramatic purposes or entertainment. but the movie "Rosewood" directed by John Singleton really changed up a few of those incidents so much that I don't even know if I want to watch it again. Great to hear a more accurate portrayal of what happened

Thank you for this video. I don't believe i have ever seen this covered so thoroughly anywhere online. I saw the movie as a child in the 90s and that was horrific but this opens up a whole new window on the scope of the thing. I have lived in rural north Florida a little farther north of Rosewood most of my life and sadly many people still harbor terrible prejudice and a shocking number of towns up here remain de facto segregated to this day. It's incredible to me. People need to know history. In a postscript, you mentioned it was unusally cold for Florida when the survivors had to take refuge but what many outside the state don't know is that throughout the fall, winter and spring months, we often experience very cold temperatures for prolonged periods of time. The weather up here in north Florida is much closer to that of inland Georgia and Alabama and i am glad that more didn't die of simple exposure on top of the insane violence. Thanks again for your work. This is an excellent channel.

Appallingly, “this horrible time in history” is contemporary America.

I just can't imagine how terrified the residents of Rosewood must have been. Getting this story out and others like this are so important, it's just so shocking, thank you for talking about it

Thank you for coming back!!! 🎉

I glad that who survived were taken care of. This is the first time I've ever heard this part of history. First time on your channel. ❤❤❤🤗

Yay Somewhere Sinister is back! Tysm Giles 👍

I'm glad Somewhere Sinister is back. Keep on with all the good work on both of your channels.

This is monsters AND somewhere sinister posted! What a blessing.

Absolutely disgraceful except for the kind souls who were involved with helping those poor people

What is outstanding storyteller! You definitely brought rosewood to life once again. BTW, the movie Rosewood was pretty fantastic

My body was shaking as I listened to this 😔

Thank you so much for covering stories like this.

That is so sad! I’m glad they were compensated. Keep bringing these to light

Glad your back. Love the program.

Great job! Yet again.... something I'm learning that I was never taught in school

So awesome to have 'Somewhere Sinister' back!! 🎉😃🍾🥂🎉 (From Ajax, Ontario, Canada @ 1:08am)

I don't know how you do it, but I'm happy you do. I missed this channel, as the histories every place has, are always fascinating!

Thank you

Nice to have Somewhere Sinister back. Love to hear the stories.

Thank GOD!! it's back!!! THANK YOU! UR MY ALL TIME FAV KZfaqR/ PODCASTER!!! THAT VOICE!!!!

Welcome back on here Jiles! Clicked as soon as I saw the upload!!

babe wake up, new somewhere sinister just dropped

I love the movie “Rosewood “! But, i really haven’t seen any videos of this tragic story. & You done a great job & What a great start to your series Somewhere Sinister!

Your voice comforts me. ❤

So HAPPY that Some where sinister is back!! ❤

Omg I couldn't wait for another video... Thank You

Wow .just wow .unreal .never knew this happened. Glad you've brought this to light

I was a history minor, and digging up these stories of Black communities burned to the ground just makes the 'pull yourself up by your bootstraps' contention all the more infuriating. I will find your official submission process, but I'd love if, for Black History Month, you did a couple of shorts like this - Rosewood is an excellent start, but few people know about Seneca Village. The horrifying story of Black Wall Street in Tulsa would be a great topic, I think. ...and for this is monsters, maybe a story about the first Black American serial killer on record.

Thanks for letting me see this case that I heard about through my dad.

I am so glad you covered this. I was an outsider moving to Florida, like everyone seems to do, for a short time. So I didn't know the whole story about Rosewood, but a lot of people talked about it. My boss's parents were white people from Rosewood. They said that really, the more successful people in the town were black, because they came from people who were used to working hard, and they built businesses people could depend on. If you wanted quality work done on your car, it was the black community you took your car to. Same with all the businesses. So there was o crowd of whites who were used to the better people being the black community of Rosewood, and a crowd of whites who were jealous. You really covered this well.

Great to see new episodes! I look forward the content on your channels so keep them coming! Thank you

Bout damn time. Kidding. Thank you for another.

The artwork assembly is highly evocative, too.

I first heard about the town of Rosewood from the featured film of the same name starred Ving Rhames and Jon Voight which came out in the late 90’s I believe…

Love your introductions, so beautifully researched and articulate. Thank you.

Horrible and Horrific what was done to innocent BLACK PEOPLE. NEVER LEARNED THIS IN SCHOOL...THANK YOU FOR SHEDDING LIGHT AND TRUTHFULNESS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED BACK IN THE HISTORY OF ROSEWOOD...TRULY HORRIFIC, HORRIFYING EVENTS. MAY THE INNOCENT VICTIMS REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE.

Woo! Spooky how it's made narrator is back! Thank you for bringing this content to light

I’m so happy!! I just woke up (I work overnight) and saw this! Your narration is the BEST! I subscribe and live your channels!!

I love the intro so much. Glad SS is back!

Thank you for sharing this bit of history that many may not be aware of!!!

This, along with other similar situations, is one of the greatest failures of this country. I am always infuriated with this event. It's sadder still to realize we haven't come that far since then. I try to keep hope for our nation to become kinder to each other... do your part. Spread kindness everywhere... it costs nothing and may change a persons day😊 ✌️❤️🙂

Very well done. Such a tragic story. 😢

I love This Is Monsters but am so pleased to see a new video on this channel! 😊❤🎉

Just subscribed. Brilliant story teller.

Its about time!!! 👏👏👏🍿🎉

Happy return🎉🎉🎉

Yayyy.. You are back.. 🤗❤️👌

Pls spend more time on this channel it’s been awhile since you uploaded a video here I had forgot about this channel. I enjoy somewhere sinister.

❤❤ thank you for the upload!! Keep up the amazing work!!!

Your back! 9 mth wait, I was getting worried. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I never knew and wouldn't have known if not for you so thank you 😊

I literally wondered about you last night and came to the channel to see if my comment about the intros had sworn you off video making 😂 This one was excellent, glad to see you back.
