OMG. So we had dark brown friends over when both not home and no daddy never could tell that they had come over. Daddy got educated in college and by me and he changed realizing how disgusting and stupid it was/is to feel this way about anybody ever. We are all just different shades of brown. That's how I raised my children and how I told my grandchildren and now how I will teach my great grandchildren. Every body is a child of God. Satan can't have children.

2:32 This part is VERY important. It is the key to understanding why, ironically, systemic racism still exists. Many white Americans refuse to even hear about what people of color go through, not because they don't think it's real, but because it's too painful for them to listen to. The amount of shame and guilt that surfaces upon hearing you got it better than others because of something as trivial as pigmentation is too much for them to bare. So, they tune it out. They ignore it, and they let the injustices continue, because it's easier to pretend like it's not happening than admit so many people suffer from it.

I think a contributing factor in why some people have a hard time understanding systemic racism is because that phrase gives the impression the system is inherently racist everywhere but that isnt the case. There are these pickets of racism, sometimes its only a town sometimes its almost an entire state but not every single person is going to live somewhere that its a problem. There are huge areas in america where there is functionally no racis. I always go back to MLK with this topic (naturally). I think he way way way a head of his time on how he understood racism. He partially viewed racism as inextricably tied to income inequality and lack of social mobility for all ethnicities so when economic justice stalled out so did racial justice which is why he was trying to start the poor mans march and why our goverment likely killed him. That is why these little pockets and echos of extreme racism from the past were never truely stamped out. The day he died was one of the darkest days in American history, America would have been infinitely better off had he not been assassinated.

Something similar I went through. Grew up, and still live in Alabama. Grew up with a racist father, and other racist family members. Racism is definitely taught, you’re not born with it. I was very fortunate enough to learn and catch on to it when I was young, and when I was out of that house, I never spoke to them again. My own flesh and blood, but racism, I will disown anyone in my family or friend group for acting it and believing in it. As a white man, I’ve been humbled numerous of times about race and African American culture, and it’s made me a better person, but as a white person, learning and advocating for better change, never stops. We white men and women, need to stop ignoring the everyday systematic racism and be better human beings. It may be very well uncomfortable for you as a white person, to have a conversation about race, but it’s necessary. You will feel small, embarrassed, ashamed, but if you experience those feelings, that means your listening. Most importantly about those conversations, shut up and listen. Don’t down play someone’s testimony based off of your experience as a white person, because you will never learn anything that way trying to refute someone’s feelings/testimony that is not the same race as you. White men and women have privilege. That’s a fact. Know it and remember it. Be the change and seek change white people. We have the ability to make a difference, so let’s do it.

My grandfather ran a cafe from the 40s to the late 60s and he always allowed black people to eat in the restaurant even though he didn't have to. He set up a large table in the back just off the kitchen for them. No other restaurants in town allowed them to come in and eat but he knew that wasn't right. Later in life, when his former black employees passed away, he paid for their funerals as well because those wonderful people who worked for him were our family. He knew that the law was wrong and that all humans were equal and he taught me an important lesson that I have lived by my entire life. We're all the same and nothing else matters.

Racism is learned either at home or from people you associate with. My Alabama born father and mother moved to Chicago with 2 toddler girls. Our neighbors were black, Alice and Benjamin Banks. My sister and I loved them! We were lucky to have had them in our young lives, and also lucky that our father taught us early that the color of a person's skin isn't important - it's the color of their heart and soul. My dad died when I had just turned 10 (he was just 36, we shared a birthday), but his words have lasted me all through my life. I'm 70 now and have both white and black friends that I care very much about. I have witnessed racism from both sides, and it's not good. People need to open their minds and their hearts more. Life's too damn short to miss out on knowing a wonderful person because you judge by skin color!

Seb A I understand that belief, as a Christian, that you mean no harm when you say this. But let me tell you, I never chose to be this way. I used to cry every night, praying to God to change me. I hated myself when I pieced together that this is what I am. I would have preferred to die than to bring shame to my family and to God. It was not a choice, it is how I am and I cannot change that. I wish I could, but it is unchangeable. God loves all those that he created. I do not believe got would want someone to teach hate to someone for something they did not chose to be, like their race. Whether it is a sin or not depends on your interpretation of the Bible and your relationship with God. If God loves you and me and he wants us to love each other, nobody should be excluded.

If we're taught to be racist, who was the original teacher? God? Where did it originate if it's not within all of us, just like potential for good and evil, happy and sad, etc...Who taught it first? Id be interested to hear your answer. My thought is, it's in us to discriminate. We (and every other living creature on the planet) have millions of years of biological evolution that has developed due to our ability to discriminate heavily. Our ability to determine a good mate from a bad one, a safe passerby from a threat, a good friend from a bad one, food safe to eat or not or a safe area to live or not is key to our survival. Discrimination between things and other beings has served us good for a long period of time as we wouldn't have survived and thrived this well by employing unnecessary skills to our detriment. In today's world of order and law, worldwide literacy rates, internet and communication and other factors like a general understanding and empathy toward other humans not seen in human history, its clear why we should change our ways, but I disagree that were not born with racism. Let's not be naive. And I also disagree that everything should happen instantaneously. Movements all around the world aim for acceptance. A few countries have made no strides whatsoever and yet worldwide paradigm is shifting in the direction of racial equality but never cultural equality, and that's a whole different topic.

DrummerJacob this is coming from someone from Alabama. As a little kid, I remember looking at black people as another equal and kind person. That was changed when my parents started to tell me that they were “unsafe” and that I should never marry a black man. They told me that I should be nice to them but they also said to never trust one. I, as a kid believed this. I didn’t try to hang out with them or include them. Now that I’ve matured and lived a little more and seen more, I finally can see that we’re all equal no matter what race. The racism still lives though. And it’s not our fault. As kids, we see the good in everything and everyone, but soon we are taught to see the “bad” in the world. Racism is not natural. It is brainwashed at a young age. And some people do not have the mental capacity to understand that it’s wrong because it’s how they’ve always been taught! Now hopefully through the black lives matter movement and many others, we can start changing more of these people’s beliefs and we can begin a new future, clear of discrimination. Just like god wanted.

Alicia Otto no. He didn’t choose. Racism is brainwashed into society. No little kid would just choose that they didn’t want to accept the fact that people have different skin colors and that’s okay. It’s taught to them! And that’s why racism continues, that’s the problem.

I understand why some people are questioning the title, but I am a black man who grew up in Mississippi. My parents and grandparents as well. The video is about a man who shed his racism in the 60s. During that time, the South was the WORST place for a black person to live. Yes, there was racism in the North as well, but no where near what was going on in the South. The biggest issue in the South was the white people who stayed silent while all the injustices were happening. These people may claim they weren't racist, but their silence made them complicit. It's not as bad now, but this video is about his transformation in the 60s, so the title makes perfect sense.

Even now I realize that there are a lot of ppl who discriminate others for being different, and for being a minority. And the others do not only stay silent, they actually speak out and proclaim that those ppl have the right to treat others as less worth than themselves. How can any person have the right to mistreat others?

But it's hard when black people want to stay separate. Other races are not included in their pro black events. In fighting for the black cause they have excluded other races and keep themselves separate. How can we understand the struggle if we can't stand and walk side by side and are not invited to the party?
