I'm going to donate to you soon man, just need a little time... You deserve that and more... That kids speech at the end was very good... As Bruce was fond of saying. "Under the sky, under the heavens, there is but one family..." Truer words have never been spoken...
I mostly missed it, I guess. I was in K or 1 at the time, so maybe it didn't impact us. I think it was Jr. High before I met any black kids. Otherwise, we had a mix of white and hispanic in the early grades...
I'm a native Houstonian and clearly my first day in 1970 1st grade has a black male in South Park schools. I had no problem making friends with other white kids and only remember great moments. The parents and media made it more of an issue than it was.
It was learned in the home. Our parents had high morals and values and we were taught how to behave. That's not to say the generations after didn't have the same thing but we didn't have the level of social influences that exist today.
Children getting an education should have never needed to go through this. I was starting school in Houston during integration and then African Americans started moving in our neighborhood and some hated it and would burn their houses down. I was a kid and thought it was horrifying. 40 years later I went back to our old neighborhood and it’s full of prospering black people and I had to have a laugh because I loved it. We are equal and it should never have been an issue
Note worthy things: - There was not a single fat kid amongst this school. - Everyone is well dressed and put together - The students are punctual, respectful, and well spoken - The students are respectful to the teachers. No shouting, disruptive behavior, or talking back. - Yeah, there was some prejudice going on here, but most of the kids that were interviewed said all the right things. Somewhere along the line, we went horribly wrong in our society.
TV reporters using film or video tape customarily would let the camera roll and prompt the speaker to talk, or just muse for a few minutes so they could find a sound bite or two to air.
The interviewer was the obvious one who had an issue & was trying to egg on the students to agree with him. They were already clear in the beginning that they were fine. This is so sad to watch how recent this was even up for discussion.
Interesting how the kids have such a different view than adults. Kids are less fearful. I live in houston and would love to see more videos from this time period. As a note, the high school I went to had maybe two african american kids and a a handfull of hispanic kids. My school was excellent academically but a social failure.
Although the name of the school has since been changed that school still exist. MC williams was located in Acres Homes(the 44 if you from H town). Acres Homes was and still is a predominately black community
I remember having a black teacher at Memorial elementary school in Houston in 71. She was a terrible person in the way she treated the white kids vs the black kids.
I was one of those kids. It went from enjoying school to being jumped every day by 5 - 10 black girls. My mother finally took a second job and put me in private school to stop the constant assaults. It's not a time I look back on fondly.
Considering the scenes are about students walking into classrooms and their teachers starting lessons - instead of racist mobs screaming, it would seem it went well in Houston.
Sad... look at Houston now! Shyt is embarrassing.... we gotta do better as a people! Respect 💯 to the elders that paved the way... while we fawk it up today...
seems like every else has noticed in the comments also that the kids are miles more well-mannered than there parents, complete opposite today. shame. these videos are so important to serve as a reminder, now u can for yourself how things were. it seems like present day needs more lessons from the past more than ever
I've only experienced school integration once in my life. I was adopted single parent adoption in 1976 from the east coast from Pennsylvania to the west coast to California when I was 10yo and I saw the very changes of desegregation in 1975 before I got to the west coast the following year. I was young but I could understand what was going on. There were a lot of negative thinkers of integration in Pennsylvania before I got to the west coast, lots of racist insults and small clashes between whites and minorities at the time. By the time I got to California, the only thing that was a worry was school bus integration in 1977 but I had a more pleasant school experience than on the east coast.
WOW, really in 1970, this is crazy...I was in 1st grade in 1970, in Philadelphia, both parents school teachers, retired now, and I never heard anything about INTEGRATION
Yeah, because everyone could survive one income and had a mother at home cooking homemade food for them everyday. With only one TV and telephone number per household. And the kids had no choice but to read books, play cards and board games, or went outside to play stick ball or ride their bikes. And divorce and single parent homes were rare and looked down on. Look all the boys wore pants, no jeans. And all the girls wore dresses. No expectations. Sneakers and sweat pants were only for gym. Denim Jeans were only for Blue Collar work. Next ask them want the thought about the LGBT?
This was interesting! I am a Mexican American who grew up in the late 60's/early 70's. We were one of a few Latinos in a predominately white neighborhood, Southwest Houston. While we were able to attend the newer schools with better facilities/teachers we had cousins that went to inner city schools that were at that time, decaying. The young man at the end of this video was good! It would be interesting to see him/hear him today. He was spot on about the system trying to screw us by labeling us as "white" just to meet their criteria, it was screwed up and this young man was spot on!
To see the parents literally waiting there all day to pick up their teenage kids is really amazing. I love the thinly-veiled guise of "not wanting to go through the bad neighborhoods" to send their kids there. It's like saying "we don't mahnd are children goin to school with black folk. We just don't like havin to go through the black neighborhoods is all!" You could tell some genius came up with that as the "more politically acceptable" response as it was repeated by many. They knew they couldn't come right out and bash black kids, so they'll blame it on the bad neighborhoods. In hindsight, it appears equally moronic. I will say though, it was great to see the kids not minding at all, despite the loud objections of the parents and what they must have heard behind closed doors while at home.
In the eighties, Houston started the MAGNET SCHOOLS. Baytown children were invited to attend these specialized classes according to the students desired occupation. Medical, art, or industrial studies. But the underlying goal was to integrate Houston schools. Baytown schools started the same at HARLEM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN MCNAIR, A BLACK NEIGHBORHOOD just north of Baytown.
This made me remember when I started being bussed to Jr. High in 1977. I was bussed to a predominantly white affluent area (Houston).The funny thing about integration is that although you make friends with different ethnic backgrounds you still pretty much group together with those that are more similar to yourself. Yes I made a few white and hispanic friends but my core group of friends were people who looked like me. What I will say is that going forward it did open up more possibilities when choosing High School's and College's. You became more exposed to what was available. For the most part people are people and I didn't necessarily ever think about color. Then again it's typically not the A/A folk who look at color, just saying.
Here is how it went. I went to a high school in Houston in 1969. It was a damned war zone. The blacks ganged up, they broke into lockers and stole things. They assaulted white students regularly with no repercussions. I could not believe how they were acting. It was very bad. So bad, I quit that school and joined the US Army. Sadly the same crap was happening in the Army. The blacks ganged up and many had terrible attitudes. There was a lot of race BS. Overseas it was the same thing. It was all a real drag. It was hard enough fighting the enemy when you had to fight your own fellow soldiers too.
The only real issue I see with integration is the distance that children had to travel away from their home schools in order to get to their new schools. Integration was extremely necessary. Black and Brown children deserved better. Whites needed to see Blacks and Browns first as humans and worthy of having all that they had (I know it's still a fight) and therefore awakening Whites to the issues that plagued minorities was perhaps the best way to achieve this feat. I'm quite sure once their own kids attended the schools with mediocre resources and little to no funding, that helped to ensure that they there was a collaborative incentive and effort to fight for better conditions at those schools. I was born a little over a year before this happened. That blows my mind! To think, four years after this, I entered school in Houston for the first time. I don't remember many White students at my elementary school, but there were a few. My first, third and fourth teachers were White and they were GREAT educators. I switched schools in the middle of my fourth grade school year when my mother and stepfather bought a home and for the first time, I was in a predominantly White neighborhood and school. The neighborhood was brand new (we were the first family to live in our home) and the school was about five years-old when my brother and I attended. Although I truly felt the difference in atmospheres, I wasn't necessarily treated badly. Just sort of ignored. I chalked it up to simply being the new child in the middle of a school year and those kids had already formed their bonds. I had a White friend who was my neighbor. Her parents treated me very normally. There was a little White boy who was younger than my brothers and me, but we played with him a lot. Now, I felt "tolerated" in him home and I knew it was because of the color of my skin. Overall, the experience was mediocre. I also attended a predominately Hispanic school in the 5th and 6th grade. That's where I had the MOST fun. It could be that I was older and I remember my experiences more from that time period, but I absolutely felt at ease and comfortable. Even though racism is everywhere, I am still taken aback that this was Houston, TX, one year after my birth. Please stop saying that things were SOOOO long ago. Those years happened in my lifetime and are STILL happening. In fact, in some ways racism is worse now. At least back then you KNEW the people that hated you. Now, they smile in your face all while operating on you, serving your food, teaching our kids, pulling you over for speeding, representing you in court. . .
this was the year I was born. shocking that this is once how it was in our country - that is was once a big deal for white and black kids to go to school together.
I think he's the one they interviewed later, and he had an interesting response. Saying he preferred the all white school he went to the year before. He mentioned the 'position' he had there.
It wasn't just the parents--the kids also resented it. Integration led to a lot of violence in the high schools which resulted in massive white flight in the 70's. Surrounding rural areas like Conroe, Spring, Katy, Crosby, and the Woodlands doubled and tripled in size and became the thriving communities that they are today. Meanwhile, the urban schools became the decaying dropout mills that they are today. Integration was a good thing? Yeah, right !
Once the State of Texas noticed that White people were moving out of major cities, The State of Texas brought in the Robin Hood Plan, 1993. That was a waste of money.
nothing has changed at all, TRUST! Everyschool i went to looked like an apple store, we ALWAYS had the most up to date technology, best Sports uniforms & warmup gear, we literally had 2 sets of different uniforms just cause, bags that had each teammate's names engraved on them & teachers who werent there just for a check & actually gave AF & stopped us from stopping ourselfs in life..yes i went to mostly white schools
@@JordanWilliams-ix2td me too, and I always felt like I was missing out by not going to my home school. Because of the integration I only knew the kids within a specific radius in my neighborhood, while my "friends" in the hood knew everyone, because they went to school together.
they are probably homophobic thanks to Christians but, why not, it’s part of a culture such as it is part of the Greek culture what the hell do you have against lgbt people lmao
Whoever he is, he spoke nothing but the truth! A Brotherahead of his time. He saw that the Chicanos(today's Latinos) were being used as a wedge between whites and Blacks to fulfill the white agenda. He also mentions how Chicanos were accepted into whiteness out of convenience. Exactly what is going on today.
Somewhere, a Karen is throwing a tantrum over seeing a younger version of her sweet, cookie-baking granny on camera opposing integration. Lol. And this, my friends, is the root of the opposition against teaching Critical Race Theory.
@@lc6636 Not teaching the truth about society is contradictory to preparing kids for success. The simplistic assertion that schools are failing because of failing families (and not because of historic redlining of the neighborhoods they serve and historic underfunding) is proof of the why CRT needs to be taught.
First thing I noticed is all the kids were so well spoken and civilized. I can't imagine HISD having mostly white students. Today, I would never send my white kids to HISD schools! Now way!
6:09 given the arguments that the segregationists were giving, they both missed the irony that she didn't understand the idiom. Something tells me Charles Murray wouldn't have missed that. 14:20 Yeah...she's not being honest about why she's worried. It's not because her daughter is mixed with older kids. The reporter clearly knows the truth but is too smart to ask.
Well, here in Texas today... nearly every first Baptist church has a school now. So the white kid's get their bible education and are safe from the public system.
Only rich kids, black and white go to private schools. I wouldn't spend 10s of thousands of dollars when my kids can get a perfectly fine education in a public school as long as they apply themselves.

Lmao the kids had more sense then the adults.
The kids had a lot of class back then. Amazing 🌺
Yeah because they all had married mothers and fathers, Black or White.
yeah....we used words like nigger, queer, faggot and said them with PRIDE!
STILL DO
As usual the kids are so much more beautiful and honest compared to the adults.
Right On👍✌️

I noticed that you don’t see old teachers like that nowadays. All my children teachers are younger than me and I’m 40
And they were mean as hell 😂 my kids have it so fun and easy.
I've only experienced school integration once in my life. I was adopted single parent adoption in 1976 from the east coast from Pennsylvania to the west coast to California when I was 10yo and I saw the very changes of desegregation in 1975 before I got to the west coast the following year.

It's a shame people actually protested racial integration in our schools.
I wonder what their opinions are of the LGBT? Black or White?
The problem is the integration was forced and unnecessary.
well they saw what would happen to public schools that they paid for
WOW, really in 1970, this is crazy...I was in 1st grade in 1970, in Philadelphia, both parents school teachers, retired now, and I never heard anything about INTEGRATION
jesus look how thin everybody was back then!
Yeah, because everyone could survive one income and had a mother at home cooking homemade food for them everyday. With only one TV and telephone number per household.
And the kids had no choice but to read books, play cards and board games, or went outside to play stick ball or ride their bikes.
And divorce and single parent homes were rare and looked down on.
Look all the boys wore pants, no jeans. And all the girls wore dresses. No expectations. Sneakers and sweat pants were only for gym. Denim Jeans were only for Blue Collar work.
Next ask them want the thought about the LGBT?
This was interesting! I am a Mexican American who grew up in the late 60's/early 70's. We were one of a few Latinos in a predominately white neighborhood, Southwest Houston.

To see the parents literally waiting there all day to pick up their teenage kids is really amazing.

Here is how it went. I went to a high school in Houston in 1969.

WHAT THE NAME OF THAT SONG
Paul McCartney
Little Woman Love from the Red Rose Speedway album from Paul McCartney and Wings (1973)
Who is the boy in the tan shirt? Looks like Adrian Garcia??
Now ask them back then Black or White want they thought about the LGBT?
they are probably homophobic thanks to Christians but, why not, it’s part of a culture such as it is part of the Greek culture
what the hell do you have against lgbt people lmao
Interviewer sounds like Dan Rather
Who is that Latino speaker?
Whoever he is, he spoke nothing but the truth! A Brotherahead of his time. He saw that the Chicanos(today's Latinos) were being used as a wedge between whites and Blacks to fulfill the white agenda. He also mentions how Chicanos were accepted into whiteness out of convenience. Exactly what is going on today.
H-TOWN!
We were gumbo back in the day.
4:45 bless their hearts. 💕 6:35 💕
Somewhere, a Karen is throwing a tantrum over seeing a younger version of her sweet, cookie-baking granny on camera opposing integration. Lol. And this, my friends, is the root of the opposition against teaching Critical Race Theory.
Agree, but we need some Critical Karen Theory to move America past this outbreak of Karenphobia.
CRT is the opposite of judging by character instead of color
@@Tomorrison28 The only people who oppose the teaching of CRT are those who don't want their own character and thought processes exposed and analyzed.
@@tincredible We need to teach to make kids successful. The schools are failing because of the failing family.
@@lc6636 Not teaching the truth about society is contradictory to preparing kids for success. The simplistic assertion that schools are failing because of failing families (and not because of historic redlining of the neighborhoods they serve and historic underfunding) is proof of the why CRT needs to be taught.
First thing I noticed is all the kids were so well spoken and civilized. I can't imagine HISD having mostly white students. Today, I would never send my white kids to HISD schools! Now way!
6:09 given the arguments that the segregationists were giving, they both missed the irony that she didn't understand the idiom.
Something tells me Charles Murray wouldn't have missed that.
14:20 Yeah...she's not being honest about why she's worried. It's not because her daughter is mixed with older kids. The reporter clearly knows the truth but is too smart to ask.
Que buenos años aquellos, donde habia mas respeto, valores y educación. Mucho se ha perdido hoy en dia, la sociedad está degenerada.
Well, here in Texas today... nearly every first Baptist church has a school now. So the white kid's get their bible education and are safe from the public system.
Only rich kids, black and white go to private schools. I wouldn't spend 10s of thousands of dollars when my kids can get a perfectly fine education in a public school as long as they apply themselves.
Get ready to be a grandparent at an early age
I'm out here in mo city tx
I lived in Lake Olympia when it was first built. Mo City has gone to ish, too.
The Vietnam War was going on, during this time.

This country was good not great... Until Obama made it bad. And then this stiff in the White House we have now, said to him "Here hold my beer." 🤦♀
So the country was “good” through Japanese internment and Jim Crow?
@@desertdetroiter428 absolutely not
Obama didn’t live in America and he’s no kin to the Aborigine of America
@@desertdetroiter428 It was "good" for people like RageAgainstTheMachine" and his family.
@@canderson718 exactly!
They won. It's now a jungle. An urban jungle. Congrats!
What?
That what joe biden said
Mission accomplished
Yeah that was before ,The welfare system and Rap music.
NO MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM LAJREN!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at the students in all of the HISD schools, today. Just a sprinkle of white students, if that!
