- Mary McLeod Bethune was born on a farm near Mayesville, South Carolina, in 1875, the fifteenth child of former slaves. She rose from those humble beginnings to become a world-renowned educator, civil rights and human rights leader, champion for women and young people, and advisor to five U.S. presidents.

Remember this is black history month, so calling black folk derogatory names is not respectful! Keep all comments respectful of black heritage and historical ancestral progress! Thanks, ✌🏽
That is never okay, I don’t care WHAT month it is. Black history is something we should learn about and teach ALL year long.
@@Louiseifyouplease exactly.
For that matter sir, it's never good to use derogatory names and terms for ANY RACE whenever. But yeah it's black history month but we celebrate it for the whole year. Thank you

Excellent documentary on the life and times of Mary McLeod Bethune. Dr Bethune was my grandmother’s close friend. I have a couple of letters and a post cards from Mrs. Bethune to my grandmother. My grandmother also was selected by Mrs Bethune to attend the inaugural meeting of the United Nations in San Francisco (1945).
Indescribably inspirational
Thank you for shedding light on and disseminating the truly transcendental
aspects of Mary Mcloud Bethune trailblazing life. Peace & Love ❤️🌸🙏
I read the biography of THIS inspiring human being when i was in 3rd/4th grades. As I read the biography, I recall that I felt she was the ONLY teacher in the world! I had a close relationship with most of my teachers. I'd decided I wanted to be a teacher and started since the age of fourteen working as a tutor working with very young children, helping them how to read, as part of the TTT Program- Teachers Training Teachers. I audited college Education Courses. Mary McCloud Bethune, yes that was her name.
I didn't need to be a
"victim", NEVER saw myself as one as long as I had heroes.
It’s my first time hearing and learning about Queen mother Salute to Queen mother Dr Mary Mcleod Bethune.
We give all the glory to our Creator GOD, for all those who came before us,all that they're achieved regardless of unimaginable hardships!!!😢🙏
This Woman I greatly admire, her Christian values, her courage, such strong Woman! After I learned about her she was most admired in my opinion, the difficulties, obstacles she faced constantly she never let them stop her, didn’t attend Bethune Cookman, I received a Degree from another School of Christian Ministry.
Thank you for telling her story.
Thank you mother BethYun for all the work and sacrifices . You will forever be honored in my heart 💝

I mainly did this to aid me in my US History project, and hopes to help others.
Sorry if I timestamped more of the history of Mary Mcleod Bethune more often than the building of the statue, as you can see where the bias might come from. And I also tried to simplify the timestamp names. If someone can make a more organized format, please do and bury this comment.
Thank you for this documentary and Dr Mary Mcleod Bethune for this fortunate life I am living.
OUTSTANDING PHENOMENAL WOMAN ! ! !
I was so excited when I found out she is my cousin❤️❤️❤️❤️

@@dterrycarter, thanks for the response. I am on the Island of Barbados in the West Indies.......i am interested in your comment, after seeing images of this lady in black and white, video footage, but you say she never existed.....well, this is same way i feel about Jesus, i don't believe he existed because there is nothing tangible at all to evidence his existence, or even the existence of Moses, Solomon or the Israelites for that matter. So i am interested in your comment.
