There is no reason for any African American male not to know this story. Medgar Wylie Evers was a prince in the line of Dubois, Baldwin, Malcolm X and King. These men are our heroes who selflessly argued the case for the humanity and dignity of Black people. He was what we all should be. Thank God for Medgar and the heroes of his generation.
gdep Man my father told me that Medgar Evers was the civil rights movement. I always had a sour feeling from anyone made famous by the said civil rights movement. Amazing we go back to Harriet Tubman and skeet right up to Obama since I can remember but not one word of Mr. Evers. The voiceless voice that screams angelically without fail through all who were ever directed his way. Man! Just listen!
How incredibly sad. This house was really nice. The way he had the house set up for his families safety speaks volumes about how bad it was in Mississippi and Alabama etc...
I make it my business to make my 7 year old watch and listen. I express how important it is. She doesn't fully understand now , but one day she will. Plant the seed early. The schools don't do it anymore. Our children feel entitled. They do not realize that they are living off of many people's sacrifice. Mine will learn . That's my contribution and the very least I can do.
I will educate my daughter as well. She's only 2 now. I'll wait until she's a little older than 7 before exposing her the horrors of the Civil Rights movement.
I'd say that about MLK and Malcolm X too. Three beautiful powerful black men that gave their lives to make this country great. The work continues but we have no more as eloquent as Medgar Evers.
Its really intresting to know about the life of medgar here on the island of jamaica in the caribbean his story is an inspiration to black ppl all over and the house museum curator has done a wonderful biography very touching and powerful story yet we can celebrate the life of this wonderful man in an era when blacks struggled to gain acceptace in the fabric of american society.
AS A WHITE, I WONDER WHO THE PERSON IS/WAS TAKING FLAGS FROM PEOPLE AT 13:15 OF VIDEO? WHO IS/WAS HE, AND WHY WAS HE TAKING FLAGS FROM THOSE MARCHING? WOULD LOVE TO TALK TO THAT MAN.
Medgar Evers was a great man and American. He fought for Black Mississippians to vote and was assassinated on this day 60 years ago. You deserve as much credit as Dr. King, Rosa Parks, Thurgood Marshall
You ate my shytt. How true that story was I don't know, I never heard that it was based on a true story. I can only imagine. Medgar Evers was a true story. RIP MEDGAR EVERS.
I just watched that with my 2 sons this afternoon. He was truly an incredible human being. May God bless his family & may he continue to RIP. Thank you for your service & and sacrifice, Mr. Evers. You will always be remembered.
Love this man beyond belief... this Alabama girl are so thankful for you and brother. Charles kept you memory on and only wished you could see how are Deep South changed . God Bless this man!! How life would been so different under his watch!!!
Stumbled upon this. I am glad I did. CRT isn't thought in schools K thru 12 but yet its feared. Examples like this must be taut in our schools, media. This is not just a Mississippi story this is America's shady sad and violent history.
Such a tragic that many people who live in Mississippi do not know who this man is. We got to do better teaching black history and American history the true history
Medgar Evers was a fine young man !! This man was nothing less than AMAZING!! I really wish that we as our BLACK CULTURE can really realize that slavery still exists !!! Racism still exists and the KKK still exists . When are we going to come together and put this injustice to rest ??!! I am So tired of turning on my tv, seeing senseless violence happen . The news never reports anything positive anymore !! We need to wake up !!
I honestly believe that after these men came back from fighting the war for America, this was the time that this country could mend and be made whole and the races mesh together. He was an incredibly brave man. That was our chance, but it didn't happen, and that chance will never come again. 😢😢💔💔

yeah there is it is called scrubbing history and sanitation of the story to control the narrative and it is not black folk doing that
How incredibly sad. This house was really nice. The way he had the house set up for his families safety speaks volumes about how bad it was in Mississippi and Alabama etc...
I spoke of Medgar years ago.It was an honor and my privilege.R.I.P. Medgar, you are loved, and will never be forgotten.
This account is so sad. It just shows that humans fear what they do not understand. I may be wrong, but we are all ONE. Blessings!
You are not wrong.
Well.said💖 You're absolutely right ✅️
Tell that to all the Whites who have lynched, enslaved and persecuted Black people.
The stories this man would have for today's youth.
No he was for a specific time. The generation of todays youth must choose their own views. They can listen to his words by long ago recordings.

"Real Talk! You said a "Mouthful! i'm gonna tell my grand children!
I also make it important for my daughter and son to watch this and understand
I will educate my daughter as well. She's only 2 now. I'll wait until she's a little older than 7 before exposing her the horrors of the Civil Rights movement.
He should be recognized in the same breath as Martin Luther King, Thurgood Marshall, Rosa Parks of that time
Amen!! You are TRULY doing your part as we ALL should do...❤
They need to locate Mr, Evers automobile as it would be an important addition to the museum.
A REAL BLACK MANS VOICE THAT WAS SILENCED...BUT HE STILL SPEAKS THROUGHT ME RIP FOREVER YOUR VOICE HAD SUCH POWER
"That Ain't No Secret !! That's how i feel about MALCOLM X! "🌹😳💜💞💚
I'd say that about MLK and Malcolm X too. Three beautiful powerful black men that gave their lives to make this country great. The work continues but we have no more as eloquent as Medgar Evers.

This brother was way ahead of his time. We need more black men like this more than ever!
You would think that people would be much better than they are in 2022. This country have so much shameful history.

It took men like Mr. Evers and that generation to face the cowards/snipers in order to bring down Jim Crow. It will never come back.

Wow, that white policeman snatching American flags out of the hands of marchers made me gasp for air.

Liberal supported racism
