Sign - 'Radio City' camera pans down to show various radios for sale. Back to school shop. Good general shots of Salisbury, shops, traffic, modern buildings, street scenes, skyscraper blocks, modern flats and apartments, statue of Rhodes, British and non-British goods in shops. Various shots of African youngsters hanging around in the streets, seemingly with little to do, no white people are seen in these shots. (16mm. E/C Neg.)

I wonder how these prosperous looking and safe streets look today!
Exactly like every other black run city and nation
The streets are safe. I can't say much about prosperity since the pavements are full of vendors
It's horrible my friend
Feeling homesick with all these memories flooding back in! But thank you for making these films available again!
You actually love being unpleasant, don´t you????!
Hi sir, were you from rhodesia
Sir, if so where are you currently residing and can you explain how life in rhodesia was
Ah, the _"whenwe's"..._
Imagine when your Country was more developed than in 2020
In the 60s
Just like Venezuela in South America
Back when they had a competent government.
1:44 and 6:15 I'm glad to see these traffic lights are working in the past, Some of them are remaining today in Harare "Salisbury", But mostly of them aren't working anymore or being smashed.
so clean and orderly - how sad it is now 😞
I went to school in Salisbury, Rhodesia and everything was available and orderly.
Then the comrades came and everything is history.
Rhodesia was SUPER
It's was indeed, if you could see It now you would weep..
@SG for Life вlαmíng thє whítє mαn fσє чσur cσrruptíσn??
OPPRESSIVE. this rebuilding process is necessary so that a true nation can prosper.
Not so SUPER for blacks
@@roso6998 we were better off right now we are in hell
It is proven that good memories keep us . Cherish them and enjoy them.
While ancient Rhodesia was a major exporter of agricultural products, 80% of the food needed today is imported. The brutal eviction of white farmers - Appaling crimes even on white Children- and their staff by the arsonist gangs activated by the Mugabe regime led to the displacement and misery of tens of thousands of agricultural workers.
Goodnight, sweet prince.
Those beautiful prices 😍
The Title should say Salisbuy, Rhodesia NOT Zimbabwe
Thats what it says .
@@karlrensburg3472 It does now... good, someone was listening!
EXACTLY.
Take that UN and Harold Wilson! Such perfect success (1971) for a small inland country.
As a black Zimbabwean. The country was way better under Smith. Thats just the harsh reality.
Zim was better under Smith. I am a worried black Zimbabwean
Are you saying you want to live in a society where a minority ethnic group should harass you because of the way you look?
@@jorgealvidrez9641 let them decide anyways, did Mugabe gave people a choice after he came into power?
For what it's worth. None of us wanted what happened to the country. Much as we hate it
Had to kill the Rhodesia dream even if it wasn’t for the best. How sad is this
You should do a before and after
I agree !
the pathe just uploads old videos that they filmed for documentation
Rhodesie altyd!
😂 things were TERRIBLE back in the 1960s with all that running water and electricity and air conditioning and fully stocked grocery store shelves and paved streets and regular garbage pick up and women walking safely down the street
but now you’ve got all that communism so how’s that working out for you zimmmmmbawbwayyy? 😂
This city is now called Harare and is now and currently still is undergoing severe financial hardship
it will always be Salisbury, Rhodesia. Every part of it's construction. Did you notice the many blacks freely walking around as well?
Long Live Rhodesia ⚡⚡
@@smplfi9859 and? They built those buildings on little pay 🤷🏾
@@KorpusV6 Because everyone in Occupied Rhodesia is a billionaire these days! Oh wait a minute.... ;)
I've met a BLACK Zimbabwean man who claimed Rhodesia was better than Zimbabwe
I’m sure that’s a common opinion among them
Im black Zimbabwean and I agree.
cuz it wasnt dogshit
Rhodesia NEVER DIE !
Ian Smith was right all along.
This city looks more like eastern Europe when compared To SA cities at the time. both were conquered by the British?
@vanya south Africa was a Dutch colony the dutch then got conquered in the boer war, by the British then south Africa became a british colony, until independence in 1961
@vanya nah me too I'm just answering ur thought process of saying south Africa was a dutch colony
Please educate me…. Why did people chose to get rid of British ruling when they managed to establish such a beautiful country It looks better than Poland looked is 60s I have been to Zimbabwe on 2019, it is so poor and so run down Gosh…
Because the terrorist were funded by the Russians and Chinese to end Rhodesia, and Rhodesia made a declaration of independence because they didn't agree to British terms of a black run country. whites were paid more but the parliament did make efforts to desegregate later in the 70s. It is complete BS since the black majority didn't have the same skills in the government as the whites which justified Ian Smiths government for a time.
Потому что произошли события в Конго, когда Англия отдала на растерзание чёрных белых людей, Родезия не захотела подобной участи для себя, и отделилась
and then Mugabe happened!!
"Ooga Booga"
God Bless Rhodesians, they lost so much...
Part of the Empire of Dust now since becoming "free" and "independent" Zimbabwe.
Are there more videos of South Rhodesia
This is what they took from you
As they should, its great that they lost.
Cheers🍸
@@thesoulbrother8636 depends on what you mean by lose politically yes casualty rate hell no lol
@@tylerfreal6472 I meant lose the ability to practice yt supremacy on African lands. More needs to be done especially in south Africa to remove those yt 😈. Cheers🍸

8:20 are those Fujifilm?
Yes
Memories of the town where I grew up. It will never be the same after Mugabe. A beautiful place gone to hell.
White supremacy and Marxism are two absolutely regrettable things that have destroyed the future of Rhodesia/Zimbabwe.
The former was good!
Destroyed? The nation doesn't exist without white ingenuity and Industry
@@bobdollaz3391 shut up smh
its more like segregation or else black troopies wouldnt exist and justified for a time for government segregation
@@williamcobbett4943ingenuity came from Asians and Chinese, just look at china best in everything.
Rhodesia was ruined.
By the brainwashed commies, who thought Communism, would work even tho it failed everytime they tried it.
I'm American and was told by a White Zimbabwean that it's all our fault?
Great Britain pushed for sanctions after UDI, and then took it to the UN. The wonderful a**holes of my country, such as Henry Kissinger, stuck their noses in, supported the sanctions at the UN and basically, Rhodesia's two former best friends became two of their worst enemies. I think it largely was America's fault, but the British House of Commons is the only parliamentary body that could have officially ratified Rhodesia's declaration of independence, but never did. Of course this led to Rhodesia not being recognized as a "legitimate" independent country as well. Once again, my country acted like we own the world.
Rhodesia looked like a great place, what a waste.
United Kingdom of Rhodesia
Back then, blacks were living in the suburbs
there were black millionaires
and now because of moooogahbee everybody is suddenly a trillionaire 😂
All these comments about how “great” the country looked back then…..very unfortunate.
At its peak the white population in Zimbabwe was about 4.4%. But this video would have you believe it’s like 90% white. Which means the prosperity evident in this video was obtained at the expense of overwhelming majority of the native people who were probably starving to death.
These aren’t images to be proud of. They are an example of how affluent a small group of oppressive minority can be while majority live in poverty.
Hi I agree the film looks like it was done in Austrailia not Africa
