CHANGING THE NAME
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2020
- Chris Goode is an entrepreneur in Kansas City who was willing to take on the task of changing the name of our most historic fountain, and a popularparkway - both named after JC Nichols. Nichols was a notorious racist, redlining our city in a way that still exists as a racial and socioeconomic divide to this day. I was privileged to journey with Chris through this process and film the Board of Parks and Rec decision to approve the change, and be there for the moment the signs and plaques came down. A moment like this won't change our systemic issues, but it is a powerful gesture that racism will not be tolerated in our city - and our most beloved places should be places where all are welcome.
This was a project commissioned by Lifted Spirits Distillery earlier this year. Filmed and edited by me.

sound quallity is amazing, just love to hear it through my dt 770 pro's. Beautifull topic, espacially since they left the beautifull fountain intact, but sort of cleansed the park and area around it by changing the name of the streets and removing that plate in the ground. To me, it give just another layer of beauty to, not just the fountain as it now represents just itself and not the man who made it, but also to the city. The short style of the documentaire, amazing sound quality and great edititng put a smile on my face. Thank you, very much.
Wow, thanks for your lovely thoughts on this - it’s so appreciated!
AMEN!!!
Really good man. 👊🏻
Appreciate it!
Really enjoyed this one, excellent job.
I really can´t understand why you have so few views and subscribers that kinda breaks my heart.
In my opinion you do a perfect job and please keep up with it. I came to your channel when i searched about open vs closed backs and since then i just love your content.
Greetings!
Thank you so much 😊. I appreciate you sharing this - I think growth is coming next year as I start weekly uploads again!
Awesome!
🙏🏻
Awesome news this is happening, not only there but all over the country. God is working to solve this but we folks need to change our hearts & minds, and learn to accept & love each other. These monuments to racism, & bigotry need to go !
0.41 How!? Was this shot on a drone or from an over-round train or something? looks amazing!
Just seeing this ha! It'd with a DJI Inspire and a 50mm lens on the Zenmuse cam. So yeah, a nice drone haha. I hired a local guy for that.
@@OliverJHughes awesome thanks for the response 👍
I'm curious, when shooting the interview how many cameras were pointed at the speaker?
There were two for this one
@@OliverJHughes yay got a response from the man himself :D
Nice. Looks and sounds great. What did they change the name to?
Still don't know yet
Yep, it defaulted to a previous street name, and they’re deliberating on a new one
I still think troost is dangerous not because I’m racist but because there’s a lot of crime there
