      It's odd how many of us are drawn to Nelson's positive, uplifting personality. He is like the earth and us the moon, tidal locked into Nelson's life. It's a shame he passed away so soon. It would be so cool to see "Where are they now" video with Rupaul, his friends in NYC, Atlanta & everywhere in between.

      Wow! We need to be seeing clips like this... this is what America is today. Not what the main stream media news would have you believe. The stories THEY CREATE are designed to foster this false racist views of our country. Does anyone else find it odd how all of a sudden we have white cops killing black folks and black folks killing little white kids at an alarming rate just ahead of an important election?

      There’s no tension as long as people ‘know their place.’ Nelson and his family were the beneficiaries of a large cotton fortune ... so to pretend that the exchange they had was an exchange that was free of tension is to forget the larger historical context in which all of the people having that exchange existed in. Albert probably had little to no education and didn’t own anything of any significance when he retired ...

For all you know he is a retired Army Command Sergeant Major with master parachutist wings and ranger tab and three bronze star medals and is just a helluva nice man wanting to help this lady and her son. I never once felt like nice black people had a gun to their heads when I lived down there in the 80s and 90s and 2000s. I always just enjoyed the fellowship. Black people will put you in your place just as quickly as white people. They aren't some sub class like you describe, victimized by the past and forced into submission.

    Nelson was a very nice guy. To me not everyone treated him as good as he did them. Most of them are so narcissistic and self absorbed it ain’t funny. Wish he was still here. I’m so glad he made all these videos. I love watching them. May you R.I.P. Nelson. You are truly missed!

      I don't think he was that old. He mentions recent retirement. People retired earlier back then. The cost of living was lower, men started careers earlier and employers weren't as greedy. They didn't make a game of pure profit over the well being of others. Albert looks to me to be about 54-56. He possibly got out of ww2 and put 30 years in a career. Mrs Sullivan @70 here is about 15 years older then him. She passed in 2012. Alberts not super ancient just yet. I wouldn't be blown away if he's still with us even 10 years from now.

I wish everyday I'd at least got the old photo albums from her house, but her relatives stole everything (and made a lot of money from her antiques). I got nothing and it still hurts to this day.
