I’m the Great Granddaughter of Roosevelt Lea of Liberty,MS this is so amazing to watch my great grand dad was a amazing man inside and out thank you for sharing ❤️
@@topazrichmond7426 LOL, that's the right thing to do, carry that ball of hate around with you on your back, pay those white people you meet every day back for the slaves they owned, HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa :)
I have been watching this documentary over and over again for over a half of a decade; it is so inspirational and so uplifting. We all should be grateful and thankful for all the strong and determined leaders who endured so much just to register to vote. We still love and appreciate all that you all did. Thank you forever.
My question is, who are the people who didn’t like this video? This video represents history of our people who fought, died, and persevered through this Jim Crowe era.
We the younger generation of African Americans .. owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the older generation , our parents and grandparents and so many others such as the folks in this video .. because they suffered and endured so much to ensure that we would have things better when we were born .. They fought and struggled so much .. they suffered so much hardship and poverty .. thats why we have to continue the fight .. Power to the People .. Power to my People
We aren't african nor ever been from Africa. We always been here. We are true American (reference Websters dictionary 1828 version of the meaning for its origin)
We praise Cardi B and ratchet ,bourgeois twerking etc..we eat McDonalds pork and shellfish and wonder why we are so sick...we would rather work in coporate slavery as opposed to owning our own..we have to do better..This classy Queen is rare in our community unfortunately...we need to do better. No shea moisture products.back to old School and natural remedies..I love us but even I realize where change is needed...
I WAS A PERSON WHO DIDN'T WANT TO VOTE BECAUSE I FELT LIKE VOTING WAS SET UP TO NOT HELP ME OR MY KIND, BUT AFTER SEEING THIS DOCUMENTARY, & SEEING HOW MANY OF MY ANCESTORS FOUGHT, BLEED, & D IED, SO I COULD VOTE, SO NOW I TAKE EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO DO SO... THANK YOU TO ALL MY ANCESTORS🙏🏾😥
They did not fight, bleed, and die for the right to vote for the white controlled democrat and republican parties. They wanted the vote to control the economics and politics of their communities. They formed an INDEPENDANT political party with Black candidates who were sharecroppers, workers, etc. NOT integration.
Our history is so deep . We have to be careful not to let emotions alter our decisions. In truth , many people have died for many reasons some righteous some foolishness some ignorant .
May I ask since you’ve been voting, have you seen any positive outcome from voting? I don’t vote because nothing that’s promised ever happens. I want to vote and make a difference, but I don’t see any change that helps black people.
'WE' act like we forgot how hard those before us fought for us to have the little so called freedom we have today out here hating on each other and killing one another I'm personally EMBARRASSED for our ancestors and ALL those that risked it all so we'd have it a little bit easier. #Tears
@Marie Why are you saying that? Do you realize your attitude is the same mentality that you are denigrating others for? There are myriad studies showing the validity of inter-generational trauma in regard to devastating conditions, like the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade, and how it effects a entire culture exponentially over the decades when not addressed. There was no therapy for slaves after they were freed. The issues we face in our communities were not created in a vacuum nor happened overnight. In the case of many folks of color it results from the constant and consistent insult, injury (Mind-Body-Spirit) and suppressed anger caused by the sickness of 'White' supremacy, and being on the receiving end of the racist behavior it instigates -- including your reaction. Like so many traumatized people of color, many have internalized and projected it upon those who look like them. Yet the Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Statistics released a report detailing statistics from 2012-2015. When you break down violent crimes, they *happen* most often *within* racial groups. 'White' people are more likely to perpetuate a violent crime against another 'White' person. And the same for every other racial group. But when you dig deeper into the crimes 'Whites' commit against each other the crimes 'Blacks' commit against each other, crime rates for 'White' people are four times higher than crimes rates for 'Blacks'. (12.0 per 1,000) vs. (3.1 per 1000) as of 2010, 'Black' people made up 13 percent of the population but 40 percent of the prison population. Meanwhile 'White' people are 64 percent of the population and 39 percent of prisons. That is ridiculously unbalanced no matter how you slice it. Period. What creates the perception that 'Blacks' are just *so much* more violent than other groups? The difference is in media coverage. They report on and bombard us with image upon sound bites upon memes on the radio, internet and billboards. Showing people of color committing crime or behaving outlandishly, especially within their own communities, at a exponentially higher rate than they do for 'White' communities. This shapes a particular perception that is skewed and completely removed from reality. Yet that's all part of the propaganda game of Divide and Conquer. The above statistics indicating the actual state of crime in the US, can be found over and over in myriad studies done by a variety of research initiatives, organizations and private foundations of both 'liberal' and 'conservative' ideology. So it is time to let that one go. And I suggest we all check *ourselves*, and be kind to *ourselves*, so that we can be compassionate towards others and truly be of service to our brother and sister human beings. -----------------------------------
Not much has changed. We have a little more freedom than them but we still are not free. Some of us are happy with the little bit they gave us. Money to pay our bills..drive cars...take trips....some are happy with this but that is not enough. Its nothing compared to what we can gain. We not free..not at all
@@romaneingram9823 ua-cam.com/video/zmEScIUcvz0/v-deo.html My people, if we learn who we really are, that will explain a lot, we are the YAH's chosen people, the real Jews, we are Hebrews, the descendants of Abraham Isaac and Jacob that a everlasting Covernant were made with GOD himself, our history is in the so called Old Testament, the very book we was taught that we no longer need, it's explains our past, present and future, start with Gen 15:13,14 and Deut 28:15-68, hopefully you will want to know more because what's been going for 400 years isn't just an coincidence, don't continue to be destroyed for lack of knowledge ⁉️🤔
Special thanks to the sacrifices made by the Freedom Fighters of SNCC. I had the honor of meeting Julian Bond, James Forman, Mildred Forman, and John Lewis.
Very moving. My people are a great people! God bless SNCC and the BPP. This is when the tide began to turn. We got off our knees! Began to tell the truth of our odious conditions. Began to turn toward each other for support. Organized. Began to understand that faith without works was dead. Began to understand that the peace we wanted, we’d have to fight for it, that we had a human right to defend ourselves from violence. Students, children, young people lead the way forward. We kept our eyes on the prize. We held on. We want freedom, the human right to determine our own destiny. And we will have it or die trying. The culture many of you claim today is not the culture that brought us up from slavery and out the mud. A trap house won’t do it! Keep your head up and eyes on the prize. BET won’t do it!! A side deal won’t do it! Cop City can’t do it!!! Do the hard stuff, the things that are necessary and we cannot lose.
It definitely hurt me to my heart when I heard the news ..the day he died .Bob Moses was an inspiration to us all ...I'm from that era ..two of my Uncles were lawyers ..that travelled from the Gulf Coast parishes of Louisiana to help civil rights protesters ..beaten and jailed ..in our sister states Mississippi .. Alabama ..and Georgia.. terrible times ..I remember them well ..we as a people are strong ..those days showed me as an eyewitness ..how strong .God bless all the ones gone on who fought the good fight ..and those of us who are still here and remember .❤️❤️❤️😔
All of our schools especially the schools in the African Americans Community should have this film as an historical or educational piece; so they could somewhat know what their forefathers had to through “ Just to Vote “ and some even lost their lives. Today a lot of our young people don’t care to Vote; These are just a few of their testimonies. Maybe after seeing this film it will open their eyes; just “ Maybe “.
I’m young and suffer with several chronic illnesses. They didn’t send my absentee ballot. I believe they’re doing it on purpose. I’m not able to go stand in a line for who knows how long. I totally believe in voting.
Watching my grandfather and a long with my mom and aunts and oldest sister brings joy to my heart. Seeing a video of them when they were so young and being that my granddad died in 1984 , seeing him in the 60s is amazing, my mom holding my oldest sister in her arms is amazing 😍
Real talk " I've been tormented " in my soul I've been fighting against my own people for so long " I don't know how to unite with my own brothers and sisters . You see where I live" we still against each other . Example I came home from work one day and my neighbor was shaking my door knob ! So I went out side and caught him on the side of the house and confronted him " Man I was so mad I was ready to kill " so I told him a few choice words just to sternly warn him to stay on his side and I'll stay on mine . This situation is still tense and one match can blow it up . I personally hate it because I do want to change unfortunately there are those who are not with unity . It hurts my spirit knowing my people won't even postpone the bs for the greater cause .
OmGOD 😢 my ancestors had such a rugged hard time 🥲 my heart breaks every time I watch these clips .. however knowledge is essential!!!! Thank you for posting such a very informative segment.
This is amazing! As a people. We are only 61 years into our Legalization in this country. The progress made is breath taking. From voting to Education to jobs and housing. Raise yours the right way!
Lovely Ladybug The greatest sadness is they honestly still believe they're Black and African Americans and other such crap. We were here when they got here in 1492. Matter of fact, they'd only gotten control of Europe FROM US just 9 months before Columbus reached here. He had Pedro "The Moor" piloting his ship. There were 5 of these dirty Moors who's were really converted Jews in disguise. One settled in Virginia and that history speaks for itself. We can't go back to Africa because this America is still Northwest Africa, on paper. It's deep, but enlightening.
The saddest part is in reality we are still fighting for equality and we are still battling a system designed to not only oppress us but keep us oppressed. As we used to say back in the day..."Don't believe the hype"! Our neighborhoods and schools are still neglected and perfectly designed to feed the incarceration system which makes the rich richer...we, especially our men are being targeted on the regular mostly for just being and trying to provide for their family...there is still not equal pay...they still plant guns and drugs in our neighborhoods yet we are the ones that pay for that when they get off free. Yes, maybe we are able to vote and for the most part choose our school but if the access is cut off from you then how do you expect even that to happen? When we want to buy a house, take out a loan or buy a car, our interest rates are higher! We still have a long, long, long way to go and the only way to do that is to learn your history (not being rude, I believe the younger generation should really look up your own history...not the one being taught to you in school because they are very selective)! This wasn't allowed...it was forced (two very different things) and enforced. In many aspects of our lives we are still being held hostage by a system that don't see us as equal.
You are right...we are neither Black or African American! We are Isrealites! We are the chosen people! They have always known who we were while we are just finding out. That is why they fight so hard to keep us brainwashed! It was our great grandmother x 20 (not statistical but theoretically speaking) that populated the entire world and we were in so called America when they first got here...we were called Indians and Mexicans (Both belong to the 12 tribes of Israel)...they are us and we are them.
I appreciate these videos. I had the pleasure of growing up with great grand parents and grandparents on both sides. And my children the same. And having those centuries gave us 1st hand knowledge of the change. It also taught us to be greatful. We arent rich with money but we are truely billionaires of education of truth. Est. 1884- 2020 worth of knowledge for our bloodline. Our people our glorious!! Thats why they fear us. No secrets. Just GROWTH
Well, some dude from North Carolina told me his mom got over by putting rocks in the reaped-cotton bags, thereby increasing the weight for which she got paid. I'm with her!
Those who oppressed these PRECIOUS people, families, and generations, WILL face Jesus. Those oppressors might have lived a good, maybe even lavish life, and their seed and future generations may enjoy the results of what they did to them. What will they say when they have to face God?
@Ty Jones it is written all these things must come to past he did not came to bring peace but a sword for his kingdom is no part of this world Wo be on to the inhabitants of the Earth for the serpent has gone down To deceive many
They don't fear God ..they don't believe in him ..no matter how many churches they have ..or how many bibles they tote ..or how many songs they sing ..They cane from hell ..and they are making the return trip..
My mother told me Mississippi was a mess back then and for a loooong time. She never wanted to move back to a place she still knows as home. We are so Blessed to have the things our ancestors suffered through, bleed got beat for, starved for, and died for. Yet, some still don't care.
Agreement! This is the first time I have seen thos, but not Fannie Lou Hammer, she'll forever be a part of me. I'm not black and I was stunned by the black people who know nothing about her. I think her name should be in every history book. LBJ interrupted her testimony b4 the DNC by announcing a senators b-day. Her words got to the American public irregardless.
Wow - read Fannie's mini bio - and what she said was right on point - SMHZ they had us snowed back then too - but voting was paramount unlike today's smoke and mirrors with - politrickians!!!
Sad,breaks my heart.....this is modern day slavery. It's still happening, just different years.😔....we strong though they couldn't kill us in Israel, Africa,or here💪🏾❤✊🏿I just Love mi people!
The big question is, if you have so much respect for our black ancestors and elders, how exactly are you showing or demonstrating that today? What exactly is it that YOU as an individual are doing to improve the black community and the world as a whole? THAT is a question the ALL OF US as individuals need to ask ourselves and be able to answer.. Because talk is cheap!! You can't be a black man, who respects the black struggle, but then turn around and disrespect black women! You can't be a black woman and respect the elders and the struggle, but then spend more money on your hair and nails than you do on school supplies for your kids and cuss the teachers out when they call you about your child acting up at school.... WE gotta start having some honest conversations in Black America...
People often miss the point: it's OUR HUMAN RIGHT TO CHOOSE TO VOTE OR NOT TO VOTE. IF WE ARE LEFT ONLY TO VOTE.... WHERE, THEN, IS OUR FREE WILL? MALCOMB SHABAZZ WAS ON IT!!! DIVINE HUMAN RIGHTS ARE ALREADY OURS.... INNATE. FREE WILL, WILL TRIUMPH.
This is why I believe in voting. My voice count. People please vote. Our ancestors went through hell just to vote. Also I'll never live or visit Mississippi. That is one state I am afraid of. That place is still very racist! You never hear anything good about Mississippi. 🙁
Good evening ReelBlack is there any way possible you could re-upload this again? With everything going on in the world right now i feel like our ancestors want us to feed off every ounce of their wisdom empowerment and even pain!!! NOW IS THE TIME WE REGAIN OUR RIGHTFUL POSITION AND TAKE BACK WHAT'S OURS!!! MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT!!!❤❤❤❤
I was 35 years old before I even heard of Fannie Lue Hamer…I’m 38 now😢. That’s sad. She should have been in history books along side the other activist!!
Just remember this was the 196o's, a very recently history, imagine the struggle just for the the basic right to vote. America has a shameful history and unfortunately there are many American today that have the same mindset of this era.
200 lb of cotton per day? someone has to pay for this I pray God comes for these animals that did us like this and their off spring that is terrorizing us still today

What change did it bring?
We are some loving, forgiving hard working strong people.
The Forgiving is worse.
That's where the religion comes from, which they gave us, to keep us calm and fooled at the same time.
Maybe that's the problem. A little less loving, a little less forgiving wouldn't hurt.

We still have a long, long, long way to go and the only way to do that is to learn your history (not being rude, I believe the younger generation should really look up your own history...not the one being taught to you in school because they are very selective)! This wasn't allowed...it was forced (two very different things) and enforced. In many aspects of our lives we are still being held hostage by a system that don't see us as equal.
You are right...we are neither Black or African American! We are Isrealites! We are the chosen people! They have always known who we were while we are just finding out. That is why they fight so hard to keep us brainwashed! It was our great grandmother x 20 (not statistical but theoretically speaking) that populated the entire world and we were in so called America when they first got here...we were called Indians and Mexicans (Both belong to the 12 tribes of Israel)...they are us and we are them.
Wow thoses videos are gold...thank you...the whole world has to remember this ...
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you All for your hard works.love and peace
Love my people ✊🏾❤️ the strongest 🙌🏾
Them brothers such strong and smart men
So many years later Still fighting 🙏🏽👁
Mind blowing
So true.
Anyone is black and watch this documentary don't wake up and smell the coffee there's no hope for you
Thank you very much for this footage!!!
Strengthening by watching.
I appreciate these videos. I had the pleasure of growing up with great grand parents and grandparents on both sides. And my children the same. And having those centuries gave us 1st hand knowledge of the change. It also taught us to be greatful. We arent rich with money but we are truely billionaires of education of truth. Est. 1884- 2020 worth of knowledge for our bloodline. Our people our glorious!! Thats why they fear us. No secrets. Just GROWTH
Well, some dude from North Carolina told me his mom got over by putting rocks in the reaped-cotton bags, thereby increasing the weight for which she got paid.
I'm with her!
Those who oppressed these PRECIOUS people, families, and generations, WILL face Jesus. Those oppressors might have lived a good, maybe even lavish life, and their seed and future generations may enjoy the results of what they did to them. What will they say when they have to face God?
Vengeance is mine sayeth the lord
@Ty Jones it is written all these things must come to past he did not came to bring peace but a sword for his kingdom is no part of this world
Wo be on to the inhabitants of the Earth for the serpent has gone down
To deceive many
@Ty Jonesand so.
Amen🙏🏽
They don't fear God ..they don't believe in him ..no matter how many churches they have ..or how many bibles they tote ..or how many songs they sing ..They cane from hell ..and they are making the return trip..
My mother told me Mississippi was a mess back then and for a loooong time. She never wanted to move back to a place she still knows as home. We are so Blessed to have the things our ancestors suffered through, bleed got beat for, starved for, and died for. Yet, some still don't care.
Amazing footage find. Im going to show this to my kid.
Black People had to be very strong back then, we should never forget what they did to make our lives a little better
These videos are so educational. I pray that many will find this channel and view all its content.
Yes, very entertaining.
You’re are truly hero’s to me thank you
Agreement! This is the first time I have seen thos, but not Fannie Lou Hammer, she'll forever be a part of me. I'm not black and I was stunned by the black people who know nothing about her. I think her name should be in every history book. LBJ interrupted her testimony b4 the DNC by announcing a senators b-day. Her words got to the American public irregardless.
This is what it takes for true change...r we ready/willing?
Handsome young man at 8:32, and the cutest baby at 9:16. All marvellous young people.
This is real America, stay woke people, this is Make America great again smh🙄😏
This is true, Trump is your Daddy now.
@@johnturner2946 shut the fuck up
Wow - read Fannie's mini bio - and what she said was right on point - SMHZ they had us snowed back then too - but voting was paramount unlike today's smoke and mirrors with - politrickians!!!
Black Americans have really gone through some shit in this country.
Everyone should view this documentary to see some of the suffering that American blacks endured.
Exactly.
Dianne??
Now now all that stuffs in your head.
No Joke
Ps Peace and Love to all the folks who shed blood for the right to vote.
Thank You.
Yes my favorite movie 🎥 about us❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sad,breaks my heart.....this is modern day slavery. It's still happening, just different years.😔....we strong though they couldn't kill us in Israel, Africa,or here💪🏾❤✊🏿I just Love mi people!
Mann...if we can get past this violence we would be....(just me wishful thinking).
@@reneerenee2656huh??-😅,you're spewing conjecture-we aren't African
I I'm sorry to say
I thought we where more aware/awake today more than back than.
Marie you're right sister and we got the nerve to kill and hurt one another UNITED WE'LL STAND
@7:30 little girl having to quit school and help her mother pick cotton. That's so heart weenching.
That was MANY peoples story but thank God they made it🥰👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️🖤💚✊🏾❤️🖤💚NOW it's time for the oppressors to suffer 🤨👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This channel is godsend.
Excellent Channel. Thank You...
The big question is, if you have so much respect for our black ancestors and elders, how exactly are you showing or demonstrating that today? What exactly is it that YOU as an individual are doing to improve the black community and the world as a whole? THAT is a question the ALL OF US as individuals need to ask ourselves and be able to answer.. Because talk is cheap!! You can't be a black man, who respects the black struggle, but then turn around and disrespect black women! You can't be a black woman and respect the elders and the struggle, but then spend more money on your hair and nails than you do on school supplies for your kids and cuss the teachers out when they call you about your child acting up at school.... WE gotta start having some honest conversations in Black America...
The only way the world will change is to not let people forget about these times !!!
So relevant today still.
In 2019, there should be NO EXCUSE why you shouldn't register to vote once you turn 18.
People often miss the point: it's OUR HUMAN RIGHT TO CHOOSE TO VOTE OR NOT TO VOTE. IF WE ARE LEFT ONLY TO VOTE.... WHERE, THEN, IS OUR FREE WILL? MALCOMB SHABAZZ WAS ON IT!!! DIVINE HUMAN RIGHTS ARE ALREADY OURS.... INNATE. FREE WILL, WILL TRIUMPH.
It's Not Hate It's The Truth And Nothing But The Truth. The True And Living Eternal GOD Knows I'm Telling The Truth.
God bless Fannie Lou hamer and Julian bond and others for voting
Our people have been through so much! Sickens me! We are strong
My heart hurts, but this is why I VOTE!
This is why I believe in voting. My voice count. People please vote. Our ancestors went through hell just to vote.
Also I'll never live or visit Mississippi. That is one state I am afraid of. That place is still very racist! You never hear anything good about Mississippi. 🙁
Thank u for ur help.
My granny my aunt's and my great granddad 5:48
That' your family
@@teresathompson402 yes
❤️❤️❤️
You’re right we’re strong
Good evening ReelBlack is there any way possible you could re-upload this again? With everything going on in the world right now i feel like our ancestors want us to feed off every ounce of their wisdom empowerment and even pain!!! NOW IS THE TIME WE REGAIN OUR RIGHTFUL POSITION AND TAKE BACK WHAT'S OURS!!! MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT!!!❤❤❤❤
THIS IS why Trump was elected so he can take black people back to this.
HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa that is hilarious.
Never will it happen
Couldn’t agree with you more!
I agree with you 10, 000 percent
MAGA... for WHITES
2020...We are here again 2020 VOTE
I was 35 years old before I even heard of Fannie Lue Hamer…I’m 38 now😢. That’s sad. She should have been in history books along side the other activist!!
Nobody cld pay me 8000,,000000,00000,00000,$$ to visit or live in Mississippi...
Speechless
Who is that young man at 17:51, he looks familiar. Anyone know who he is?
Julian bond
@@vanessatheurbantarotgoddes2192 Thank you. I had the first name correct but then for some reason I thought it was Julian Green.
In the 18 mark he sounds so grown. Very mature. Cute self
They are all some Beautiful Smart Black Brother's and Sister's ❤️ 🖤 💚 💪🏿 ✊🏾
Just remember this was the 196o's, a very recently history, imagine the struggle just for the the basic right to vote. America has a shameful history and unfortunately there are many American today that have the same mindset of this era.
Black people are Godly souls.
She very legendary she really loves her people.Beautiful lady .
We've come a long way in a short period of time✊️✊️✊️✊️
The Black Woman is GOD!
??? Young Julian Bond the Civil Rights leader @ 17:45?
Bother had poise and delivery even then.
Wow black is most beautiful ❤❤❤
200 lb of cotton per day? someone has to pay for this I pray God comes for these animals that did us like this and their off spring that is terrorizing us still today
I I'm the grandson of Jeff Surney the man sitting in the chair,, and all my auntie's and my mom is holding my big sister .....
You can have Mississippi i would never travel there. I wish all blacks could get the hell up out there.
That's a huge part of our history, Mound builders-The Nile-Euphrates-The Mississippi
Is that 'Julian Bond'?
I think so..if not he shooo looks like him😊
ApplezNBerriez Yes. That's Julian Bond.
Wonderful kids 😇😇😇❤️🤘🏿
this country alt be shame of herself
Why should I feel shame, I didn't do anything.
Who else had to go through this in America???
The white co-op farm worker's for many many year's, but they weren't black so they don't count.
