How the New Deal Left Out African-Americans

- During the Great Depression, unemployment among African-Americans was twice that of whites - mostly due to segregation. One rare opportunity came on the Pullman sleeper trains, where most of the porters were black.

Thank you for these beautiful images. Reminds me of my grandparents!
Every human being deserves to be happy no matter what colour or faith you are.🥰
man everyone was so pretty back then.
VandelayOfficial yeah they didn’t dye their hair green and cut it short. Lol
meme_doggo1 a green short cut is cute though lol???
They didn't gorge themselves on a trash diet like today. Junk food and portion sizes have gone mad
Everyone is more pretty now, now that we can appreciate that everyone can be pretty outside of rigid standards. :)
We cared about our appearance and stuck together then we had no choice we had no rights and everything was separate now that we have some kind of rights and things are no longer separate it seems like we lost focus some where we stopped caring about our appearance and totally lost respect for each other
I hope you post the whole episode
They did. ua-cam.com/video/4BW9AeKq3RM/v-deo.html

Please post all. Looks great.
I would love to use this in my class, but it gives me no closed captioning option and that's a must for ADA requirements. Please update videos so educators can use them.
CC is working now (just want to be sure you knew)
@@mattkwong6706 thank you for taking the time to let me know. I will use it this semester.
Be sure to let your class know that the New Deal was a comprehensive, across-the-board failure that kept America in the depression for an additional 8 years, ok?
It’s sole purpose was to reduce unemployment. You’re a teacher - you should know how to look up unemployment rates from 1933-1945, right?
so shamefull to people past , we are all Human
Additionally this was also when the FHA started redlining.
History is one of the keys to survival.
Conservatives tell us none of this happens
Fdr was a socialist
The conservatives were the ones taking the shackles off.

@@fiachef6284 I made this comment a month ago. What do you mean?
WE STILL WANT OUR REPARATION 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏽
Ileen Randle you keep waiting... meanwhile me and my brothers will make our own. The that that still to this day, we haven’t received it should tell you something.
WhatGoinOnPeople
That’s the way to do it. Blk ppl waiting for the ppl they believe oppress them to supplement and notice them is the same as an abused person seeking closure from their abuser; neither have to give that closure which will leave their abused waiting forever for closure instead of giving it to themselves instead of the abused creating the closure needed themselves.
Reparations is innocents paying for a crime they never commit to someone who never was the victim. 🙄
Reparations should not be in money form. It should be in form of good education, healthy environment, shelter, food and EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES. Then everyone along with me will pay.
@@niranjandesai6766 Couldn’t agree more. Reparations are long overdue but need to be conducted not through emotions but logically with facts and context. Both arguments need to be looked at throughly and with non judgemental ears to meet a middle of the ground verdict that’s realistic and reasonable
Like your the one that had to struggle what they went through
is this a trailer of a longer episode we can watch on t.v or youtube?
Leesuh Oliverha it’s called the 1930s

I love how people are posting this is fake/race baiting when they are simply posting videos and describing life at the time. If you think this is attempting to push any kind of "agenda" you're whats wrong.
But you know, if people have to learn actual history their favorite narratives gets shaken and to strengthen their own cognitive dissonance the have to react strongly against historical facts!
If they don't - they might end up becoming "evil libtards" who try to understand the full picture of how society works and how history has influenced it!
Just take the response you got from Yvonne Bauer elsewhere in the comment section - that's such a perfect example of what I'm talking about!
Cognitive dissonance makes her react so strongly, that she calls the people who reacts towards racism and call it out for being the actual racists!

Maybe if the whole truth was talked about in regards to most of this some people may not react to it. Are you aware that the KKK was set up by the democrats who also opposed the abolition of slavery, were against the civil rights movement of the 1950s and even voted against the civil rights act of 1964.
I am not saying the Smithsonian has an agenda I am saying that if the whole truth was discussed at a national level then maybe there would not be so much trouble.
Any American who has any understanding of the past 100 years of this country knows the Democrat and Republican parties practically switched ideologies decades ago.
You can't judge what they do and don't talk about based off of what is essentially a trailer/teaser. I'm sure Smithsonian, a commonly used historical source, would not sugarcoat any details.

"Any American ... of this country knows the Democrat and Republican parties practically switched ideologies decades ago"
That is just pure nonsense at best. There was democrat senators in the 1960s who voted against the civil rights act and were still democratic senators up until 2010. Robert Byrd was the former head of the KKK and was a democrat right up to 2010..
David Duke the current head of the KKK was previously a democrat and even ran for office as a democrat. The switch you are referring never actually happened.
this video told me about as much as mary mcleod bethune told me last year -_-
african american were very beautiful Natural than today
BLACK AMERICANS NOT..........AFRO AMERICAN
FDR had no choice southern democrats had a huge position in congress.
Southern Dems opposed non-Whites getting any of the New Deal offerings and then in the 1960s they joined the GOP.
He still won the majority of black vote each election.
@@phade2blaq Wrong almost none of them joined the GOP, go learn some facts.
@@ghostsniperable353 no they did. In fact FDR eventually had to purge
@@indridcole7596 Go look at the facts, almost none of them did.
You can’t just leave us hanging
Things are getting better, but still have a long way to go. I have been fighting the racism in America since the mid-70s. Things have greatly improved since then, but it seems my generation needs to die off before equality has a real chance. Most people in my generation (I am 59) are great people, but enough are still caught in ignorance and bigotry that more progress will be too slow. In twenty years or so, most of us will be gone and hopefully things will be much better. There will always be bigotry, but I believe in the next few generations to step up and make us all proud. Happy New Years to all! Make 2018 a great year. 2017 has been a year of hatred and bigotry. I like to call 2017 the year of the orangutan.

+A.C.O.D
Would you like to provide sources for the studies that proved that "black people is more racist"....???
I'm not saying that people with higher levels of melanin in their skin is incapable of being racist - but you make it sound like it's a huge problem somehow affecting society a lot - so I would love to read that study that proved this....
A.C.O.D racism is taught and learned, not contagious like a virus. Your claim is simply an opinion and completely false.
Black people can vote today. They can work, Pay taxes and have freedom of speech. Racism that people keep talking about is not going to go away.
There are always going to be people who hate other people for whatever reason they have. They do not like a person because they are too tall, Smart, Successful, failure, lazy, colour of hair, religions, race and about anything else you can possibly imagine.
True
Democrat Party is responsibe for this treatment of blacks
They were, past tense!
Not any longer - now it's the role of the republicans!
GorillaGuerilla I am so sorry you're correct. Black ppl live in Uncle Sam housing that is in shambles, the children are raised by a grandma or mother with no fathers in sight because they "workin for the man" all day and night. If you decide to leave the hood and make your life better your an UNCLE TOM and a traitor to your color of skin. Just enough to survive like health care, wic, ebt,according to the masters (DEMOCRATS). Learn some historical truth or continue voting in your masters. Your choice to be a modern slave to others dictates of virtue and morality. Get a hand out or get a job. Do not steal from me and call yourself virtuous because your a THIEF if you choose Democrats.
@@lakeugly white Democrats. Still the party of the kkk and blacks are switching back to the Republican party bc of it.
@@gorillaguerillaDK FDR would not be a Republican.
@@dumps9011
Again, you completely fail to see the huge diversity of political ideologies existing under the umbrella called the Democratic Party!
It really isn't hard to understand there's a huge difference between Joe Manchin and Elisabeth Warren - or between Jim Costa and AOC...
A lot of those porters died millionaires is what is some elders told. They were able to send their kids to college and so forth. Just proves what hard work and real fair justice can do for it's people.
And racism is getting better.😂😂😂😂 are you serious?🙄🙄
Why is there so much energy for police shootings and none for this.sad. 😒
So government discriminated while the private sector provided better opportunities.
Um...no? Ever heard of Jim Crow Laws? Which allows businesses to discriminate people of color.
Bullsh!t
Didn't really tell us how the white got to pick their jobs.
Thought the same. I was waiting for them to explain how some systemic law was unfavorable to blacks. Apparently it's like most liberal propaganda concerning racial inequality, simply saying it somehow makes it true.
Deadbunny69 Are you really that ignorant to ignore facts from an actual historical source and claim theyre fake or are you just that dumb?
Jdub97 What source?
Smithsonian, obviously.
Jdub97 Obviously. So what was their source? Because as I've pointed out they didn't say. But clearly you know, a narrator of a video told you so it must be true. Do tell.
Cause Oakland got talent Foo..
You all need to be left out
This hurts my feelings... and we wonder why whites are more successful than blacks it’s handed down from generation to generation...
Poverty is absolutely a thing that is factored over generations.
And the invisible defacto semi-apartheid system in the "north states" has been just as harmful towards people of color as the segregation system of the south was!
But you know, cognitive dissonance is a strong force and people will fight viciously to protect it - so when presented with simple historical facts, they will feel a deep need to lash out to protect the narrative they feel confortable with!
The most "soft" of them will go, "that was then, it doesn't matter now" - and the more radical their cognitive dissonance is, the more strongly they will react and it becomes more like, "it was and is their own fault", or "they are born lazy" etc....
The amount of backlash this short video segment has already recieved is a perfect example of how this factor plays in.....
bob2000and10 who said all white people are bad bob!??
Es P you really need to do some research on some of the oppression we’ve had to face for decades. You’re just another blind fool and you have the audacity to think this is funny smh... you prolly just some poor white guy that don’t realize he’s in the same boat as Black Americans.
Video title: How the New Deal Left Out African-Americans
Literally never pointed out "How the New Deal Left Out African-Americans"
Title bait it seems like
Trumps favorite time in American history this is his version when "America was great"
It was utopia, there were just a whole bunch of people that didn't actually belong in it.

Who finds it funny, that while the illegal voter theory has thoroughly been disproven, there's still idiots who promote it and won't acknowledge it never happened?
Who finds it funny, that lack of tolerance towards the most intolerant of all, is somehow viewed as being just as bad?
Who finds it funny, that while Russian involvement in trying to hack it's way into election machines is a recognized fact by the entire intelligence community in the western world, there's still people who refuse to believe it?

Oh, the irony that is present in your inability to comprehend these things!
It's down right cringe worthy!
So, did Mad Planet deleted the "isn't it funny" comment I responded to - or did I get blocked or something?
Cause suddenly it's not in my feed anylonger....
Damian Martinez get off the Democrat plantation brothers and sisters, they hated you then and they hate you now.
I'm no African American
The new deal caused the great depression. It was a means of economic control to try and right what people thought was a fault in the market which in turn created greater problems.
After the 1929 crash a great recession happened and government taxed life out of the economy which stopped the recovery.
The New deal destroyed Growth in America. It actually taxed people at higher levels to enable the programs to be paid for. That money should have been reused to build America instead it was used for welfare.
The great depression did not really end until the 1950s. The end of the great depression was the recession of 1949.
The New Deal did NOT cause the depression. Before FDr took office I believe, the unemployment was at 25%. You mention the stock market crash. The stock market crash was a result and ultimately led to the depression and was the start of it. It was because of conservative economic policies in the 1920's which helped cause such problems. The Revenue Act of 1932 came well after the 1929 stock market crash and well into the depression.
The New Deal came after the Great Depression.
@@ahabarhossain8747 It extened the great depression.
@@phade2blaq During the depression.
