It is always a great thing when a young person has someone like a grandfather/grandmother type. So much can be learned from senior citizens. When a young person realizes that being old does NOT mean older people do not have anything to offer .. in fact it means that young person has the probability of being a loving & giving person. The amount of wisdom in those years lived ... enormous amount of knowledge and LIFE EXPERIENCES.. no better educational experience than that.

I didn’t know anything about racism are what it stood for until I got in my high teens and I had friends of all colors and we always met in the middle of the trailer park just about everyday and played until dark are until our parents hunted us down. I was actually in a church group called Royal Rangers which is just like Boy Scouts and I invited all my friends to it know matter there color. Matter of fact the number one person I invited was James and he was black. The number of problem is the politics and media. They do everything to keep us divided so they will have unlimited amount of power.
@jonathandevereaux2982 жыл бұрын
You can't say racism is taught because it would have had to have started somewhere. We are taught to see differences and when we are insecure we attack people who are different to boost our self esteem. Racism isn't some super evil it is structurally the same as people hating on the elderly, fat, bald or whatever. In Japan and India they do it based on ancestry but look the same. Humans who are unhappy look for differences to tear others down. When you bring someone down it appears you are being lifted up.
@tysonhartle24392 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately, our world and much of our news and programming on tv continues to try to show a difference in color, sexual orientation and religion. People think that if it isn't discussed it won't change but it's just the opposite. As long as we point out differences or give groups of people special attention or special treatment kids are always going to grow up seeing those differences. Simple things like Alicia Keys "Shine, shine my black sunshine!" commercials on Nickelodeon.... Some people will say "Wow, that's a great positive message for young black kids" but my son, who is 4 years old, white and doesn't recognize color of skin as a difference among people said to me "I don't get it, the sun is yellow. It isn't even black." So do I explain to my 4yo that they are talking about the little kids being black and then also explain to him why they are called black and not brown, that brown is reserved for another ethnic group? Then when he asks why she is asking the black kids to shine and why they get to shine but he doesn't do I go into detail, again with a 4yo and explain to him how African Americans were treated over history and how in some areas they are still seen as different or lesser than other people or repressed? Why does he need to be told or taught that when he should be the one who is doing the teaching. Teaching adults how to not see color and just seen another kid on TV. It is never going to get better, ever, by pointing out differences even if you don't think you are doing it to divide...
@AB-ol5uz2 жыл бұрын
It's not a question of not seeing color - of course, people/kids see color - but they don't see color as a filter of whether someone is good or bad. It's just a part of who they are, and part of what makes them interesting, unique, and beautiful as a person.

@ Asia And BJ I was born and raised in Detroit. I was a bit over a year old when the 1967 riots happened. It was the summer Detroit was on fire. We were one of only 3 white families in our neighborhood all the other families were black, but you know what? While most of the city was turning against each other because of skin color, our neighborhood drew closer together. We worked even hard to take care of each other, to care more for each other, to watch over and protect each other that much more. Whatching your videos remind me so much of this beautiful couple that actually did live down the street from the house I grew up in. They were in their lare 30s to early 40s when I was a kid and I always liked helping out around their house. Kohn loved building homemade telescopes and had a passion for astronomy. Mary loved her vegetable garden behind their garage. I learned so much from the both of them. And just like this story I grew up, graduated high school in 1984, joined the military and became a military police officer. After basic training, the police academy, infantry school and gunners specials school I was stationed in Germany 85-87. I didn't come home on leave until April of 86. My parents had divorced as I was the last kid to leave the house and I was told that the house was sold to split the assets between my parents. I had went back to the neighborhood when I was on leave just to look around. Most all the adults and kids that lived there had moved out and new people and families had moved in. People looked at me strange for 2 reasons: 1)I was white in a now all black neighborhood. 2) I was was wearing my class As dress uniform. Peoe asked me lots of question and I explained that I used to live there. I went to John and Marys house and there was a lady about my age in the front yard, I asked if she knew John or Mary and found out she was Marys niece. She told me that both had passed a few years back and asked how I knew them. I told her who I was. She looked at me with a smile and crying and said she had been looking for me for a while. Angela, her name, had taken me in the house and I was so amazed house everything was the same. Angela took me down into the basement and showed me a telescope that John and I had built together. When I was a kid. Angela told me that John had passed first and then Mary less than a year later. Mary had left the house to Angela because they had no children of their own. Apparently in the will Jihn wanted me to have the twlescope we built together along with a letter Mary wrote to me. She wrote that they both loved me so much and regretted not having children of their own, but were so grateful that I gave them a chance to experience being parents everytime I'd visit. She ended her letter by telling me not to cry for them and if I ever miss them Point the telescope at the Northern Star and look up and I'd see them when ever I wanted. It's 2022, I'm 56 years old and. I still hane that wooded bx telescope with the hand polished lenses that John and I built and in an air tight sealed clead bag is the letter Mary wrote to me. And on a clear Phoenix night when all the stars can be seen I pull out that telescope point it towards the Northern Star and say hello to that wonderfully beautiful couple that the both of you remi d me so much of. Thank you so much for being such lovely people. I truley hope that you both have long lives filled with all the love and kindness you want.

They seemed to enjoy the fresh vegetables weekly but the time spent just talking with them, listening to their stories...priceless. you learn to appreciate how good God really is, having good morales and values, integrity, honesty, and most importantly, love for your neighbor.

I use to sit with my Grandad for hours.. Best memories of my life. He taught me so much. He was born in 1890 and passed away in 1971 at the age of 81.

I'm from Canadaand white my soninlaw is black they have been married 20yrs.,I couldn't love this young man more if I gave him the breath of life myself. YOUNG lady you hit the nail on the head when you commented that kids are taught prejudice,.As an older white person with different ethnic groups making up my family a word of advice it always starts with someone saying to you oh I dont see color beware ,what are you color blind We all see that we are different but all Gods children,why he made us different I dont care because the song says I believe and there's more than we can see and it's not all there is .love you guys best regards and you and your family stay safe.

the most wonderful thing about children is they adore and like people that make them feel safe. Not color nor race or religion, but who makes them feel safe. And then the world tells them otherwise to corrupt their innocence. :( This is one of the best songs and videos out there in Country and any other genre of music. And brooks and dunn are amazing. So happy you did this one.

Ronnie Dunn is the guy singing the song. The other guy with the cowboy hat is kix Brooks! Really enjoyed this reaction In 1990 the two singers formed the group that would be called Brooks and dunn!

End of the song when the kid goes back always gets me because that was me when my grandpa died, hurts because you know what that kid is going through because you’ve lived it.

Truly a wonderful and classic song. I had an old man who was like that for me when I was a kid. he use to play his guitar and sing to me while were sitting on the porch swing. He was my second grandpa. He died shortly after his daughters wedding when I was like 12 or 13 years old and his daughter was my baby sitter too. I cried for a long time when he died but always remembered he was in a much better place. This song makes me tear up every time I hear it.

Thank you for playing this song it's one of my favorites. I am white and I taught my kids and grandchildren never ever judge anybody by their color of their skin. God bless you love your videos
