This is so disturbing, but also fascinating. The important thing is make your kids aware of their roots, even if the family history is painful or complex.
@@judymurray191 as an american black man, i am glad u, as an american white woman, understand that holding on to certain negative legacies do not promote today's peace in our country. i believe most of us want peace.
I’ve met SO many McGruders in southern Alabama and elsewhere during times I traveled with my Dad when I was younger, as he was invited as the guest minister for revivals at different Black churches. The Harpers and McGruders are still good friends to this day.
Jill Magruder is awesome, she’s been an incredible resource and example of how we all can come together when real realize all that we share. I first came across her on Facebook of all places. She and I aren’t from the same immediate Magruder family, but we have a common ancestor. I knew McGruders out of St. Louis as a kid, we always thought it was funny that our names were so close, we had no idea about the history of it all. Much love and peace to all
Wow I am a Mcgruder also my father’s name is peter from Hazlehurst Mississippi can you give me some information about the bloodline of the Mcgruder’s from that state please trying to find my daddy’s side of the family thanks so much 😘🙏to all
Breeding was very common. This happened all throughout slavery. One of my descendants was a breeder, she had many, many children then her daughters and sons.
nice story 🤎 I hope people do figure themselves out and stay true to their own selves (I currently feel like I am being grouped up by something I very much disagree with)
I could not follow her family root of who is who very well! I kept losing track with so many names! and who is that white woman who stared to the end of the broadcast? is she a relative of the teacher or of the slave master who owned the slaves? very confusing! if Ms Lucille Burden Osborne is 96 years old now then that would mean that she was born in 1926! slavery ended in 1865 but I guess some black folks as well as white folks from before 1865 were still alive back then although middle aged!
Slavery had been a worldwide issue since antiquity and even before Columbus verified the new world. Even blacks in Africa had black slaved. Sometimes they were called servants, and that the wealthy could only afford to have and actually support them. It is said that St. Patrick was a slave in the UK. The Israelites were slaves in Egypt. There were few jobs back then also. It took the Constitution to turn that ship around and resulted in the Civil War where many whites died to uphold the Constitution.
@Aaron D. Digby, Sr. Im guessing that the Constitution set the course of no slavery, but it may of never been passed at the time if it was so explicit about ending slavery started before it by the old world colonizers and that the resulting production was vital for this nation to be. Blacks helped make America what it is today. Even women could not vote till an amendment. It took time to do things right.
What they not telling you is that they used to call it seasons even in the Caribbean islands where they had men that breeded with women but in Jamaica the seasons was year-round but in the USA it was only for a season of the year disgusting I know but imagine being trapped on an island with nowhere to go 🇯🇲🇺🇲😭😭😭😭
So what? Why is the focus always on these people who have been free for the last 156 years, but no one (especially the media) focuses on people who are still currently slaves i.e. the Uighurs’ in China.
Now I know I'm going to get a lot of crap for this but I really don't care. I come from a line of Magruders which is one of the spellings that come out of Scotland along with Mcgruder, as horrible as our past is we should focus on both sides of the coin. Alexander Magruder came over and was sold into indentured servitude got out of it and became a successful plantation owner, but treated all of his slaves with respect and dignity, which happened a lot in those days, yet all we hear about is the horrible things that happened... we need to hear both sides not just one.
You shouldn't get crap for it. You have a right to your opinion. I'm just wondering how you treat a slave with respect and dignity? That's an oxymoron. My 3rd great grandfather fathered my 2nd great grandmother by a slave. He was a Confederate War hero. My 2nd great grandmother was denied her family name, history, and inheritance. There is nothing respectful or dignified about that. Slavery was a dirty institution. There was no getting out of it for African slaves and their descendants. We can't sanitize it. I'm also a descendant of Ninian Beall. He came to America from Scotland via Barbados in indentured servitude. However, he was white. His name is everywhere. There was a big difference.
@@LamarG-1892 they're situation was crap, yes, however by freeing them before the emancipation proclamation, allowing them to keep their culture and heritage ect there were a lot of ways to show them dignity and respect.
There is no such thing as holding a slave and treating that same person with dignity and respect. That can’t even go together. If you have me enslaved, made to labor without pay how are you showing me any dignity or respect? 🤔. The fact that you “own me,” makes that impossible. I don’t mean that sarcastically, but many people think like you. If YOU were the enslaved person, would you feel respected by the person working you to death without pay, and without the ability to voice how you feel even about your own body?
Hi, this was a better/sweet story 🫶, and thank you for sharing. One thing I know Black 🖤North 🇺🇸 are not Africans, because Africans can not own land in 🇺🇸…. no disrespect. 😊
Can she trace who came from Africa and from what region ? Who of her ancestors was sold out of Africa and why her own Africa people betrayed them ? Once they get out of the shop , their destiny will be misery and death , why they made Money out of them in Nigeria Angola South Africa , go they have no value for there own people ? Most governors defend their own people , why they don’t go to the root of their miserable life ? And at least there alive Native people had no chance to live they came to America to get kill by the millions , no excuse but Indians did not sell there own people has Africa did
Chattel Slavery is different from indentured servitude. Indentured servants would marry and have children who were never taken from them. Also, many of them chose the lifestyle in order to get to go the the so-called New World. YT ppl are always trying to step on Black history by distorting the truth. TELL THAT!!!
I'm getting tired of the lesson of slavery being thrown down our throats like it's a assessary to care. Why don't black people talk HUMAN for a change without bringing up the past?! 😡🤦
95?!!!! 95!!! Good Lord, she's beautiful
95 going on 55 !!
My great grandmother was a McGruder this past weekend we had a family reunion. It’s amazing the things you can learn about your family!
I'm Patricia McGruder we originate from Yazoo City Mississippi
Oh my...

These are your relatives. 👀🤷🏿♀️
Every country got a complicated history but Damn the United state is on another level
jan 6 shows they are still on that level. spirit of hatred passed down from their forefather and foremothers
@@johnjames1320 As an American white woman, I do not get how other white Americans are not ashamed of that legacy instead of holding on to it.

My name is James McGruder. This is my family. This is beyond
I noticed the creator of the Boondocks is a McGruder. I think I saw his pic in the collage.
Damn this should wake up every black man and woman today
yes. stop mcgrudering
Yeah I wish we did better. Even though we don't know nor remember everything. We know so we have to do better. We must demand what we're owed
Excellent I pray you all have a Family Reunion soon.
my name is ricky mcgruder.

I never though the concept of slavery could get any worse... Now this... My god.
Amazing 🤩 this is so important. Please commission more episodes 🌻
more episodes called "the mcgruder"
My grandma and grandpa and uncle Juan 💕
It is a good story reminding us that we need to improve relationships as we all live together.
Yep slavery wasn't that long ago if you really Start asking around
We don’t even know how deep our family legacy runs, until we get active and start searching.
She’s so very gorgeous
This is deep.

👌 incredible.
Thanks for sharing.
95!? Blessed 💞
Amazing story. No shame ... no choice in the way it came together but amazing best steps forward after.
😢 yall r my cousins 😮 wait a min and it on my maternal side
Beautiful lady, 95!

This is so sad but it our history! This is one of the reason why White people don't want us to know our history.
Wonder if she's still living... I would love 2 sit and listen 2 her talk.
So Sad....
Wow I am a Mcgruder also my father’s name is peter from Hazlehurst Mississippi can you give me some information about the bloodline of the Mcgruder’s from that state please trying to find my daddy’s side of the family thanks so much 😘🙏to all

My name is Jeremiah Zolomon McGruder. I appreciate the knowledge
Breeding was very common. This happened all throughout slavery. One of my descendants was a breeder, she had many, many children then her daughters and sons.
A lot of black men still out here breeding now. 👀🤷🏿♀️
I had a teacher in high-school with the last name Mcgruder but he was white.
I'm a MCGRUDER the real one BLOODLINE.
This is awful, but at the same time intriguing. Thank you for sharing your story and this part of history!

Most masters would claim their children even if they were born from their slave or servant.
Whataboutism at its finest. None of that had absolutely anything to do with this families history.
Who's that white lady claiming to be a McGruder??? LOL it said Magruder not McGruder. You guys had me in the first half....
