Somehow, watching the past "in motion" made people more relateable to me than seeing still old photographs. Strangely, they became more alive and like...wow, people in 1911 were really "real"!?! And maybe they were a whole lot like us...each one needing a Saviour (Christ)...their only hope...just like us.

Back in my day, if the policeman cruising down the street saw anyone dressed like that they would take he/she right away to jail. I grew up in the fifties and sixties, and businesses would not let anyone enter with your hair orange, purple, red, green, and/or your pants sagging. They need to learn how to dress respectfully and learn moral conduct.

They fought a massive civil war in their recent history and were about to have world war 1 in a few years. They were living on top of land stolen from first nations who they genocided. they had been enslaving black people in the south of their country not long ago. Women couldn't vote. And the children they raised would do world war 2, and learn to make nukes. They are exactly the people that gave us our messed up world we enjoy today. It comes from them

Keep in mind, this was the upper classes of NYC. Most people only had one “Sunday Best” outfit that they wore to church. These are not the factory workers that were most New Yorkers.

Jim Crow was in full force during this time and so many of these people are engaged in nostalgia like nothing else was going on in these 'good ole days.' meanwhile my great grandmother was born 5 years after this and was basically still in bondage (sharecropping, boarding).

As a black woman, seeing the black man driving the white family and noticing how straight faced they were , seeing the man try to make conversation and they were flat out ignoring him is so so triggering! 😢 this film was shot in 1911 and I still get those same straight faces and still get ignored when I try to speak to white people in my neighborhood now in 2024!
