      Yes, by getting rid of them or banning them under “political correctness “ they do not want peeps to know their history or what was “reported” about them in a very discriminatory time. However discrimination will always be. No society will ever be rid of it.

      @@petelamb6514 hey Pete. I am a conservative. I’m curious…what did I say in that above comment that may have sounded like a bleeding heart or “snow flake “? I watch a lot of black conservative forums like Larry Elder, Candace Owens.. especially Candace - cannot stand black LIES matter and constantly says know your history!! Then you will know why you are disenfranchised. What I was saying was these films are important part of the history. It was the snow flake ppl and college kids who listen to their professors and buy into the whole liberal socialist ideation that were the liberal for runners who instituted welfare and other strategies that destroyed the black nuclear family.
      I went back to college this past decade for higher Ed and I challenged the professors bc they are brainwashing younger generation to believe in this liberal ideation that was always inherently filled with socialism and allows ppl to play the victim card.
      So if something I said sounded liberal, please do tell me. I don’t mind criticism. 😊

      @@johncaldwell881 exactly! I think that black people are waking up to those political parties with mad power and money who have always had an agenda to control the blacks and essentially keep them down. Look at history and you will know who these prejudice control freaks are. Martin Luther king told his ppl to look at the bad white parties who want you down in the gutter and grab a hold of the good white ppl in power that want to see you thrive. I love conservative African Americans who learn the truth. Even blacks sell out to these white parties like Patrice cullors. She was used as a pawn to make black ppl look bad and she’s so stupid and greedy now she’s getting audited. It’s not your color it’s your kind. Martin Luther King said do not judge a man by the color of your skin but the contents of his character

      This is a nice segment. The buying power of black folks was estimated as he mentioned but that was also later done by calculating the youth market for the coming drugs shipped from the Golden Triangle via the Vietnam war. If a product is sold to a demographic, prior economic calculations mean at all times numbers. Numbers translate into money. One imagines, that the youth of America becomes an economic factor by drug shipping being calculated as a number bringing in hundreds of millions of dollars via drug trade.
      We are only numbers to specific people in commerce.

    He said " It's a well-known fact that negro customers are influenced by the OPINIONS of others". That in itself is still a MAJOR problem in the black community. We need to hear and follow our own inner voice/intuition as to what serves our best interest instead of constantly worrying about others opinions of us.

      We need to stop listening to those telling us that we are oppressed. I know disparities and challenges still exist, but we are in a better place now and yet our family structure, marriage rates, equity, education has all declined, and now we have schools calling testing education racist, thus discouraging success for our (black) education. All my life I was tired of hearing that I am oppressed, I am second class citizen, whitey is always going to have his foot over me.....I am so damn glad and blessed that I never let that doubt and toxicity swallow me hole. It is painful to see how many others have bought into it, so much so that they allow themselves to become crippled in life.

      Yes, as a non-Black person, it seems very clear the type of mentality worked. They didn't have that defeatist "We were slaves" mentality. Yes, they WERE slaves, about 1 - 2 generations before. They didn't blame slavery or racism for everything and they had it WORST back then! 70 years and 3-4 generations later, they weak. I grew up as a kid around old Black people and I would always ask them about "The Racist Days" to understand what they went through. VERY interesting stories.

Additionally, any white person that says "such and such are black devils" is being racist b/c the term "black" is a whole people...so you saying "white devil" is a racist term.

      Well, one day the middle school grades were doing a unit on Martin Luther King, so in social studies I decided to give the kids an inside view in hopes of letting them know how far things had progressed between my school days and theirs. Gave them a fast history on redlining, the civil rights protests in East St. Louis (we were just outside ESL), and how that system had been ruled illegal.

    I had a black female coworker who happened to be from Haiti but was now living in the US. I asked her if she had experienced prejudice, as we were both living in a small Southern town at the time. She said that when she was shopping for clothes and looking in a particular assortment, she was sometimes told "those aren't on sale" as if it were assumed she couldn't afford anything that wasn't discounted.
    In another instance, an (American) black woman called to ask if a certain apartment was available for rent, and was told it had already been rented. This was in a small city in North Carolina, and she grew up in that area. She was a bit suspicious, so she asked me to call the same people, as if I were seeking the apartment. (I'm a white guy who grew up in the NYC area.) When I called, I was told the apartment was available. This appeared to both of us to be a discriminatory. We could have made it even more interesting if I had said I'm calling "for a friend", and then the black woman shows up, with or without me, to see what the reaction would have been!

Based on the things stated in the video and the points it makes, I would argue that it's doing more to relate black people as being ordinary Americans and should be viewed and treated as such. It makes points such as saying Mr. Jones, Mrs. Smith, rather than saying negro, it states that black people own their own homes, make decent money, have healthy family units, and buy quality merchandise. It reinforces that black Americans are ordinary Americans. It counters common stereotypes and toxic beliefs. Marketing is clearly nothing new, all people of all backgrounds are targeted to sell things to. Older adults, children, women, etc. Are all targeted groups because what groups buy is clearly predictable. The video obviously has tremendous value in showing how things were in the past and should be protected because the past is not always pretty and needs to be learned from. Though this video is a product of it's time, I stand by it being positive and progressive.

    This was a product of it's time. This is actually a positive video, despite the arguably dated word "negro", but again the video is a product of it's time. Just like we say black today, back then, they used a different word. Of course, it's not appropriate now though. My point is this video seems rather progressive and positive for it's time, it portrays black people in a good light, recognizing them as people and as family units, shows us that despite what people believe, they have a decent income, own their own homes; they are also Americans and should be treated and viewed as such. It says they're not cheap, they buy quality merchandise, they buy and provide for their families. I feel this video does more to relate black people to being normal, regular people and Americans too, rather than putting them down.
    The truth is, retail is a business, and marketing tactics are designed to reel all of us in, all races, groups, religions and identities, this is nothing new. They target selling to people of all groups. The fact this video is catered specifically to marketing to black Americans, it is really nothing unusual. I feel most people watching this are looking at it way too on the surface, and taking away the wrong things from it. There is far more meaning and significance here than being a terrible, racist thing. People are not seeing it for what it is. The video even counters common stereotypes and preconceived notions, that's why I say it's progressive for it's time. I think it shows how, as we moved through the 20th century, recognition of black people as regular Americans increased. In the video it states that black people buy quality merchandise, shows them all dressed elegantly, clean and put together, shows healthy families and homes. The video also states that black people just want to be treated as ordinary people. It states to avoid saying negro, but rather call them Mr. Jones, Mrs. Smith, avoid discussing politics, religion, etc.. and that they can be reached just as everyone else.. If this video shows anything, it says black family's are units and to be treated and seen as regular, ordinary Americans, not lazy, poor, disheveled, or fleeting people. It does more to relate them rather alienate them. Obviously, videos like this have their value, because the past should be remembered to create and prepare for a better future, no matter how uncomfortable the past may be. I stand by what I see in this video though.

      Our purchasing power has been hijacked by society. We don’t own in our communities so we have no purchasing power in our communities. It’ll take a meeting of the minds to establish a direction for our purchasing that will uplift our businesses one at a time if need be. The money is there. Community investing and pooling of resources is a very quick way to turn the purchasing power into political power, economic power etc. they killed Malcolm and that mindset with the same bullets. We have to go back and study our outspoken ancestors. They were complaining about the same problems in our way to date! We’re divided by more than just the system. But it’s all by design. This video is proof that they’ve been studying us since they landed on these shores.

    I know someone else has already commented on this, but I would like to add the same comment. It is amazing how well dressed, everyone is, both blacks and whites alike. You can see this in older historical videos, dating back to the early 1900s. The way people dress is a reflection of the culture’s economic prosperity.
    This video was put out in 1960. This is pre-welfare state. Once the policies of Lyndon Johnson’s welfare state got put in place, things seem to have taken a turn for the worse. I get the sense that this affected the black population first. However, it spread to the population in general.
    If we look at the economic condition of today’s population as a whole, a very large percentage, I would say, is definitely in a tenuous economic condition, to put it mildly.
    I attribute this primarily to the welfare state.

      What is very interesting is finding out that welfare places the father into debt. Any woman that takes welfare for her children is covered by the government, but a debt earning 10% is placed on the father. Something tells me that Johnson and company wanted to make debt slaves out of black fathers by offering better benefits to black mothers than what fathers would be able to consistently provide.

      Oh like anybody is surprised? As with anything it's always and I mean always about money! And I mean this is on both sides and every side. Of course there are good-hearted people who don't care about race, sex, religion, Etc. But at the core of what happens in the United States no matter what it is, is about money! Every race of people has faced slavery , and this is a fact. And what was slavery really about? Sure we can say it's about religion and race and all of this other stuff, which I'm sure definitely was a factor at times, but at the core of slavery of any type was finances, money, power which again comes back to money. So why and slavery? Why end it in the United States? Yes I know it was out of the goodness of people's hearts. Yeah because that's how the United States works oh, that's how the world works . Try again. So really why did slavery end? Why did segregation end? Because some people sat down and realized how much more beneficial it would be financially. And that's the cold hard facts! This brilliant thing called democracy, equal rights for everybody, make everybody feel like they have a voice, somebody mentioned Sun Tzu , and that's a great example. when the people believe in you, when they believe in what you have to say and we're doing they will go to all ends for you. And when people feel this way they spend more money, they're willing to donate money to those they feel will further what they want. I.e. , backing politicians who they feel have their best interest at heart. Excetera excetera excetera, I'm sure you can figure out the rest, or at least I hope you can. Yeah it is always about money and power

In the early 70's the movie industry was making black films glorifying pimps and hoes. The Arab oil embargo of 1975 made owning apartment buildings in areas subject to cold winter's less profitable. Certain apartment building owners abandoned their buildings and others set theirs on fire to collect the insurance. This practice was limited to black and Hispanic neighborhoods.

Since god is not a respecter of persons, and ALL fall short of the glory of god, and not one is worthy, and all come out of the womb in the same sinful condition, as well that god created evil, and the war is between good (God) and evil (Satan) and not with humans which have no power and are in the web of evil, and as Christ said; You can do nothing without me, as well as; wait in your patience, for in your patience lies your souls, hence, wait upon the lord and his work to wash all humanity from evil which all sin comes from. Owe no man nothing but to love him. Judge not because humans are all in the sin box and all are needing the washing to be free of sin, which means all sin remembering that hate is sin, wanting revenge is sin, not forgiving or loving all humans and wanting for others as you want for yourselves is sin as well. No human can free themselves from sin ( the fruit of evil ), only the great washing away of evil will clean away sin. So if any are hoping or wanting God to put any to suffer You don't know God at all, hence; always studying never able to come to truth.

      Almost every dollar in the Orthodox Jewish community stays in their community. That's they they have their own communities, businesses, hospitales, schools, school buses…meanwhile, only a few cents per dollars made in the AA community stay there. You're exporting your dollars to important products made by others who couldn't give a crap about you. Change your mentality, change your world.

      GENERAL DISARRAY'S BOSS 83...... let's be just a little more positive for our people 🤔. The problem is we won't come back to {OUR GOD, I AM THAT} . and unify as a NATION of GREAT PEOPLE...We call on to MANY gods of Satan. The other nations are in unity with their one god for their agender against us, WE call on their gods?...look around us, has any thing change for us? church's on every corner, sometime 3or 4 in the same block.
      The bible tells us, it's OUR only hope, it's OUR story.
      I'll say this..some of us will make it. It's prophecy !!! and things are speeding up, so this is our time ( last time) ,to get it right with {our GOD, I AM THAT I AM}, and to love one another..... Yes there are and has been forces against us, because we are the chosen seed.believe or NOT. CONSIDER YOUR END..... because it's only going to get worse from here,{ OUR GOD I AM THAT I AM}..is waiting on US....They = (SATANS and his children ESAU the white race) , Ishmael the ArabS, HAMS children African , lot's children MOAB AND AMMON, and the other nations ,all know who we are!!! and want us dead, remember Satan 😈wants to win .
