Old New York Woman shares her regret of treatment of Black People

I agree with that but from the day she came from ; they had housekeepers babysitters nannies Cooks a combination of all she's about 90 so it ain't no strange thing that black people have taken care of the household of white people especially the females in the 30s 40s and 50s some black males.

In we try to make it so special for them even if we don't have much. Some may call us names don't want us to touch them but in the end most say sorry and if they don't. You keep on doing ur job.

Being ignorant can be a choice, but generally people don’t know what they don’t know. If she was intentionally mean or hurtful to black peope that’s all together different.

[@brandonstewart3298]

The problem is you believing half this country despises that black woman. The only treating her as lesser then is you and your victim mentality. I am white, grew up in all white areas. There is not some secret white racism going on dude. They are just other people the same way a white person is.

​@@user-dz3yp7lb2jyou live in America and you don't know black suffering. Cope.

[@hatchett999ify]

@@user-dz3yp7lb2j your surroundings have a great impact on your behavior. But after you mature then it’s on you to change.

[@roberthurst1378]

First off , if you think half the country despises you, you’ve already been brainwashed yourself. Good luck with that

[@gilahunter2425]

I am glad she had a revelation before she left this world. This is a beautiful thing.

[@sarahunlimited7352]

Bingo! Regret no more precious lady. She is a wise woman.🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

[@raeshellspeaks5716]

WE GOT ONE!!😂😂 THEY WILL ALL PAY FOR WHAT THEY DID!!

[@user-kf5zm1kk7o]

What???? Please explain....

[@raeshellspeaks5716]

@user-kf5zm1kk7o This is one white person who feels bad about treating black people like trash or whatever she might have done! I was making a joke about that, even though it's not funny. And my opinion and my hope is that white people will pay for all they did to black people! That's all.

[@AmazingJoey]

God words says so.

[@wahurahab6911]

Honestly, if you guys truly want change give room for change in your hearts,and slow walk your tongues and typing fingers.

[@julieholien3681]

Very well said.

[@doreengordon9959]

At least she admits before dying clueless

[@marisenarcisse7650]

May God forgive her of how she treated black people in the past. She will die with a clear conscience. More of them need to come forward!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@yahairaortiz8116]

God bless her soul

[@user-yh4be7my1c]

People are people everywhere. My husband is black. I understand more than you know now what my husband goes through because he is black. It gets to me sometimes, but he just lives his life right.

[@chandler_bond]

Thing is though, Hollywood is largely responsible for this. They scouted, impoverished gangsters, amd glorified them. A big part of how this all came to be is because of our government and the forces working against the black communities. Nowadays, it's a culture to them in a lot of areas still. Violence, lack of sympathy, and hatred towards one another. That's what's caused a lot of the animosity and problems for them.

[@nette5773]

Sometimes, that not enough 😥.

[@raeshellspeaks5716]

But he just lives his life right!😅 Like most black people! What's your point?🤦‍♀️

[@chandler_bond]

Cant see my comment! Did it get removed :\ I was just speaking facts

[@chandler_bond]

A lot of it has to do with how black communities are today. That's because Hollywood went and made gangsters famous, it gave young black men and children the wrong impressions and only further incited the decline of several communities. It's not like that everywhere and I like to think most black people don't come from that.

[@GinaMFlorida]

And that is our Country's fault!!! This elderly lady should not have a regret like that. What a darn shame

[@beyondthesea9648]

Yeah, right. Never too old to virtue signal.

[@shukrihassan1]

A beautiful person inside out, God bless you!

[@JohnDoe-us4tm]

When you repent of your sins God will forgive you. Amen.

[@BettyMayhan]

Amen Thank God for her words may bless her 🙏❤️

[@Sage-jg2vu]

That's cause she has a black care provider

[@kalelargaa]

Forgot her line? My God this actually looks forced on her....

[@jewallorvick233]

There comes a time in one’s life in or outside the church that,redemption is necessary for spiritual growth and to move forward. Our past actions and or in actions, of the unfairness done by us to others unfairly and we stand by and did nothing to remedy the situation. We all go through reflection/redemption st certain points in our lives, especially, when, we have: Regrets, traumas, death, illnesses, old age, loneliness, sadness and or disappointments in our lives.

[@DX4v2]

What a waste of an answer lol

[@johtaviousnevels820]

You wild😂

[@entertainmeimboredplease4250]

Stfu

[@VanBaylen]

That’s where you’re wrong. Truth and meaning are relative. For all you know, she could’ve been a malevolent racist in her past who did some grimy shit to black folks and didn’t realize til later in life that she lacked the social understanding of racial equality. For some people it means a lot to treat others equally. You clearly lack the depth of understanding for these types of circumstances lol

[@jeromeberry4079]

By saying that this is something that she REGRETS ,, speaks volumes about what she thought about black people in her youth.!! Otherwise she would have no regrets concerning black people.!! As always,, we are a forgiving people.!!

[@stephaniecole962]

Omg! What a precious soul. Her caregiver is definitely a light in her life.

[@jamikajohnson5378]

I love her.

[@her8923]

You would

[@DNice06]

Do you love your own kind?

[@TheeCookingChannel]

Man please no she don’t, she just don’t want to see them fiery pits

[@Nameitiron]

I believe her, it’s hard to dramatically change a mindset

[@vivicagaona8577]

you wonder why she chose not to understand yall blacks. yall so judgmental. sad she wasted an answer on yall

[@cactuslover969]

That’s extremely close minded I pray that you learn to accept people when they apologize.

[@jessica4128]

So people aren't allowed to change their minds or get a better understanding of something or someone? I definitely don't wanna be living in that world. I hope I'm always learning and growing.

[@myy9997]

She now realized that what she was taught and told as a child, was all lies. God bless her soul for being so honest❤

[@shirleylyons761]

Love her sincerity and pure honesty, For in much wisdom is much vexation, and he who increases knowledge, increases sorrow. Ecclesiastes 1:18

Thank you for the beautiful words you are a wonderful person
