An unsung hero of the civil rights movement - Christina Greer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 лют 2019
- Learn about the life of Bayard Rustin, a leader in the Civil Rights Movement, a gay rights activist, and one of Martin Luther King’s closest advisors.
--
In 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech at the March on Washington to nearly a quarter million people. None of it would have been possible without the march’s chief organizer - a man named Bayard Rustin. Christina Greer details his life of advocacy as a leader in the Civil Rights Movement, and the challenges he faced as an openly gay Black man.
Lesson by Christina Greer, directed by Anton Bogaty.

The people you never hear of are the ones who help the most
That's usually how it works.
You're not wrong, but as time marches on we are given more opportunities to learn about the unsung heroes of prior generations, so there's a silver lining for everything. It's a damn shame that there will always be great men that are ignored in their day, even in the modern world, but no matter what there will always be someone doing amazing things that's out of the limelight. The best we can hope for is to do a better job than those before us at acknowledging our heroes out of the limelight.

or king gave recognition in public...
People who experienced segregation are still alive living and breathing today. You can still have a conversation with them about their grandparents who were born slaves. That’s how recent all of this is.
Wow
My mom was 8 when the civil rights movement ended.
God Bear my family isn’t from the USA but the past monarchy in their country ended segregation a long time ago.
EDIT: the country is no long a monarchy,
Also that’s my family’s home country I was born in the US.
@@SameerHameedy
My great grandmother probably would've been old enough to remember slavery. I'd have to ask my mom when she was born.
My grandpa was a teen in the civil rights
He went to my high school. There's a plaque outside. So interesting to know that his history isn't taught everywhere.
That just sad, dude....some people just need to spread the history more...
We need to teach this more especially since its so recent
@@yusufuddin-qo3gf yea
I've never understood how someone who is the victim of discrimination and persecution, and knows how it feels, can turn around and victimise someone else.
The cycle of abuse is a cruel psychological trick the mind can play on itself sadly. It can be hard to break and can easily lead to the abused becoming abusers, luckily that isn't always the case and more and more people can reach out for help and step out of that shadow every day.
@Lars Chue But..
But... But... Feminists!
I, too, blame feminists, everytime the topic is something else entirely.
@Lars Chue meaning?
Talking about the Jewish people in Israel?
Exactly.
'We need, in every community, a group of angelic troublemakers.'
Very true.
Agreed
You guys make me wanna learn how to animate all the time! They’re always done so well!
Why don't you learn animation then?
@@tempname8263 because it takes a lot of time and money. I want to do professional animations as well, but pads, tablets, and styluses can run you well over $100
@@augustinedaudu9203 If you're not passionate enough to spend money on something. Then you're not actually passionate about it.
@@augustinedaudu9203 Can, but you are not oblidged to have those.
Heck, I've been using 30$ Genius tablet for the past 8 years.
@@tempname8263 Nolan said that they were supposed to be given to us, but it's very difficult to get them,
If Ted-Ed made an animation about my life, it would be better than my real life...
I love that. And same 😂
The only people we talk about is MLK and Rosa Parks when it comes to the Civil Rights Movement, but there were many others who don’t get talked about. Glad this video is shining light on one of the others.
Bayard Rustin practiced what he preached ✊
Unlike Gandhi, Believe me, I am a Indian historical student.
Rup Ganguly Ikr. That guy was a wife beater and a strong believer in India’s oppressive caste system.
He was a man of his words..
@@victorviereck4117
That's why I always disliked Ghandi. He's a fraud that acted as if he stood for right, but did many wrongs. Kast system thinking.
Soooo they were protesting against segregation and had a problem with homosexuality? Weird times.
We're still in weird times... it hasn't stopped
@@jacobandrews2663 r/wooosh
@@waqqas6799 hahahaha r/wosh amirite lol r/foundthemobileuser Xdddd haha we did it reddit
Edit:thanks for the gold kind stranger
that wasn’t a woosh lol
if he was offended maybe but he wasn’t
Can I nitpick? You could have put his name in the video title. At least for discovery.
As is, it feels like Christina Greer is An unsung hero of the civil rights movement. I mean, she very well might be too - but that's not what the video is about ^^
Agreed, I got confused at first as I actually thought this was about some civil rights activist called Christina Greer
Not all heroes wear capes, and not all heroes get the spotlight they deserve. It’s nice to see respect paid to this Civil rights genius.
Agreed
Damn the animation is on *fire*
You commented too fast to have even watched the video though???? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Could you all stop complimenting the animation and admire this man?
Admiring a commie?hah
@@cv4809 excuse me and would like to say that his former political views don’t take away from his great acts !
How is it that all people are taking away from this video is that ted ed can make good animation??
Sometimes i feel like alot of sad history is closer than we often think about, and the effects and aftermath are still felt in certain places.
Yes!!
You’ve discovered it
So glad you all did this! So many people dont know him. I'm glad he's finally getting the recognition he deserves. If anyone is interested, the book Time on Two Crosses is super good to read about his life.
I have learned about new information. Cool animation. Thank you ted.ed...😀👏👏
I read the title thinking Christina was the name of the man in the video. "That's a strange name for a dude" I thought.
me too.. i keep on waiting for this Christina to shows up.. legitimately thinking she's Rustin's mother or something
Embarrassed to learn about this guy after 2013, but it's nice to know who he is.
So inspiring - his tenacity, conviction and organizational savvy. Thank you for this video!
Don't forget to mention A. Philip Randolf as well. Him and Bayard Rustin are unsung heroes of the civil rights movement.
Amazing job as always Ted-Ed. Learned something new, History vs Sigmund Freud?
Include Bayard Rustin in the title!
This video is my dream
Weird dream
@@thorodinson6649 o
His profile on the view brought me here. & am shocked that i had Never heard of him! & i considered myself well verse on social issues! ( may he continues to Rest in paradise forever 🤲.) ( All Love from oakland California)
Thank you for introducing me to this rockstar. Will read up more on him...
Watch the NYT video on Bayard Rustin done by the great Coleman Hughes. It's brilliant and dives deeper into his ideological roots. Rustin would've hated what's happening today, but not for reasons you might think.
How have I not heard about Rustin? He's a hero!! He is so unique & his story is inspiring!!
This video was very well done, I love the topic and the animations! Thanks ted ed
Animations are SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTH!!!!!❤️❤️💪🔥
This guy was so centrist that each side didnt like him lol. What a legend!
He sounds like an extraordinary person. Thanks for bringing this bloke to my attention. Well done.
He never needed the limelight, he never 'performed', Bayard Rustin is a true hero.
I got two notifications.
I chose this.
Sub 2 PewDiePie
Good choice.
*I will definitely sing heroic songs about Bayard Rustin!*
Thank you, Rustin. We need more of you. And supporters of people like you.
The animations of ted ed us the best 😍
This is hitting hard right now
Great video as usual, but the title makes it sound like it's about Christina Greer
A high school is named after him: Bayard Rustin High School. I go to West Chester East High School that is not so far from Rustin High School
TED ED is so important to me. I escape my life in these less than 5 min long videos ❤️
In Ted-ed we trust. Muito boooom !
Blacks are numerous, that is why they can be able to fight unequality. But there are minorities who can't change status quo, because there are too few of them, and they are too hated.
Why don't we learn this at school
STYLIZED BASIX Because the powers that be don’t want an educated populace.
You know why.
The unsung heroes are the only heroes that have helped the world be in a better place.... Whom of we have almost never heard of....
Keep it uo tech ed for bringing up such content
Looks like really an unsung hero, thanks for bringing him into light and getting much deserved attention for his efforts and service to the welfare of America!
So happy he’s getting the recognition he deserves.
I really liked the video; very informative and inspiring, especially in the 2020 Riots that occurred after George Floyd’s death #blacklivesmatter
What a wonderful man !
I'm always in awe of people who "DO", and feel compelled to always fight the status quo. There really are these radical beasts of change, and may they always be around until, hopefully, we no longer need them.
Great timing! I watched Full Frontal's segment about Rustin and the civil rights movement just a few days ago and I was thinking about doing a little more research into his life
The other leader of the March was Asa Philip Randolph. He almost did a March on Washington in 1941 before FDR created the Fair Employment Act.
YES YES YES!!! Bayard Rustin needs more recognition!
On the topic of unsung heroes can you make a video on Mary Seacole?
Extra History has a great one about Mary Seacole.
Always nice to hear about people who followed Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy.
The unsung hero of this channel is whoever is booking the animators!
I wish we would have had videos like this when I was a kid in school, I think we just had one vhs tape we watched every year
really great video
This is really good. I've never heard of him
I love this 😍😍
Bayard Rustin deserves his own Film.
protesting won't save us
action speaks louder than words
Legitimate conscious objection should always be allowed but it must remain in that realm because freedom should not resemble chaos. People must return to bargaining in good faith.
Thank you 🙏 again TED-Ed
I think I have watched this before
WOAH, in Science Olympiad, near Philadelphia, there is an invitational that is held in Bayard Rustin HS, named after this man!
The narrator’s voice is really nice and the animation is so good 😍
The title makes it seem like Christina Greer is the civil rights hero.
Incredible how it was only a few years ago.
Can you guys make a vid about Gregorio H. Del Pilar?
Nice job Byron Rustin! We must keep equality without violence!
At least we are able to minimize apartheid
Christina is amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Loving these new videos on the civil rights movement!
He also probably coined the phrase "Speak truth to power" in a Quaker pamphlet on non-violence in 1955.
My favourite person is marther Luther king jr
thank you
Thank you for this video.
He is now.
Him and Robert Jebediah Freeman are real unsung heroes
Love the quote at the beginning!
This is so helpful. Thank you Ted ed
This animation.😍
Off topic, Can you make a video on how humanity have created perfection(rulers, perfect square tv and wheels)?
I cried. ❤️
Amazing use of audio in the video; it felt really immersive. Fantastic and very educational!
I have a feeling that if there's a movie about this man, Chadwick Boseman can play him. You guys have anyone else in mind?
When I saw the title I thought it was about the Philippines
DANG IT!
Who is that?
@@wilmaolandres Philippines is a country
I am glad that tedtalk did this video.
He is definitely a hero. 😊
1:15 .. so proud
Bayard deserve the award but they should have awarded it when he was still alive to accept or deny it.
Thank you. We needed this after that fake Jussie attack mess.
For some reason I thought it was gonna be Whitney Young
Very well done as always.
"I have many dreams. Not just one-in my sleep." -Martin Luther King Sr.
When educating is best without noise. I couldn't hear it at times. Way too loud. Content😍
The real mastermind behind the civil
Rights movement
Bayard Rustin is hardly an "unsung hero of the civil rights movement." He is the person who organized the March on Washington and after civil rights acts of 1964 and 1965, wrote that the movement should go from "protest to politics."
Thanks for the information
