- Some historians say that by the time Nixon was inaugurated in 1969, the nation was its most divided since the Civil War.
Shortly after taking the Oath of Office as President of the United States, Richard Nixon said the following on the steps of the U.S. Capitol on January 20, 1969:
In these difficult years, America has suffered from a fever of words; from inflated rhetoric that promises more than it can deliver; from angry rhetoric that fans discontents into hatreds; from bombastic rhetoric that postures instead of persuading.
We cannot learn from one another until we stop shouting at one another-until we speak quietly enough so that our words can be heard as well as our voices.
One of the pressing issues of Nixon’s first administration was school desegregation. Despite the unanimous ruling in Brown v. Board of Education Topeka (1954) and the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Bill, 80 percent of schools remained segregated throughout the nation’s South.
In 1969, in another unanimous decision, the Supreme Court decided in Alexander v. Holmes County, “to terminate dual school systems at once and to operate now and hereafter unitary schools.”
The Nixon administration chose to adopt the policy position of a unitary school system, however to avoid the controversial issue over bussing, favored it on the basis where children, without taking in account race, would attend schools closest to their homes.

Black people, you can not hope, pray or vote your way out of oppression. Freedom is taken never given ✊🏿.
❤🖤💚
this is proof, that Blacks was still voting Republican even into the late 60s. Great work, brother.
It's because the welfare state, the destruction of black family, and things went downhill fast!
The first man was so right . 11 yrs later his war on drugs was enacted and executed on my people sigh
Nancy Hicks died in 2008 of organ failure she was 61 years old she was 22 in this video

Sorry for your lost
Rest in peace to your mom,
Mine was born in may of 69 and left us February 2020 from breast cancer 😢
Great journalism bro.. Where u get this stuff
Regardless on which side of the political debate you fall under this good history
Vintage footage of Harlem ❤️❤️❤️ I'm from the Bronx but my mother and her siblings are Harlem bred. I always hope that I would see her in one of these videos
Me too. When my mother was alive we would watch old documentaries like this set in NYC and I would tease her that I could see her in the background walking down the street.
Benign Neglect.
Senator Edward Brooke of Massachusetts , Republican, should have been in Nixon's cabinet , and the first Black president.
I would like to hear from Sammy Davis about Nixon..
Damn Demon 😤😤
And our ppl still fall for the Okey Doke till this day 🙄🙄
I like the first brother’s response in the beginning of the video 🤣👍🏾👍🏾
Your channel. Genius
Black ppl more than any in this country always say change is necessary. Yet they vote the same way for 5 to 6 decades.
Democrat
Because we want a positive change not a change back to Jim Crow which is what the Republican Party is offering. Nice try though.
Did you miss the point where they said the lesser of three evils to three candidates they had
You're so ignorant of American political history that its hard to respond to something so intellectually deficient.
You mean we need to vote for the white supremacist, kkk, proud boys, anti black, anti immigrant, anti gays, anti lesbian, anti young people, climate change denying party?????
Sister Hicks was very wise!
the lady that answered first to the question asked at 15:27 died 2 months before the Nov 2008 election and just missed seeing the first black president.
You just answered a question I had. That is sad. But at least she lived long enough to know it was a real possibility.
The interviewer asked the two people on his panel if they felt in their lifetime they would see a viable black Presidential candidate. They were both relatively young people and I hope they were still around to see Barack Obama,
Nancy Hicks died Sept. 28 2008 of organ failure she was 61 years old, she was 22 in this video.
I hope that Black people learn a value of a lesson that black faces in high places means absolutely nothing but symbolic BS. Obama was just a black face for the empire.
I wonder how much information on the black soldiers in Korea during the Korean War
"I feel"🙄 smh IF YOU AINT A MILLIONAIRE YOU CANT AFFORD FEELINGS. get out your feelings and learn policies THEN IF U CHOOSE VOTE!.
Strong human emotion is feelings or how you feel
Policy does not replace what you feel from someone else. Dismiss those feelings at your own peril.
@@Yomi4D Feelings has gotten us where!?🙄 this was 60 years of feeling DEMOCRAT. STOP it logic always prevails smh.
"He can't help us", then they go vote Democrat🤪🤪🤪
