    How incredibly awesome it was that this video was recorded. A good mount of footage t that. More importantly, was how these recordings survived all this time. Absolutely phenomenal scene to witness of all times, the current moments. I’m so proud to see films like this. Those football players barely had on padding. Since I’m just learning about this town, I’m searching to find out what happened to it. I’m afraid to know if white people (KKK) demolished this town as they did the other successful Black towns. Wow, just wow!

      Boost Mobile No, black woman have always supported and build up the black man Image. The BM was the ones who left the black community after civil right movement to marry Becky.

      @@sherrycambridge1531 I don't think it has to do with where you come from whether you like this music or not. I am from Tennessee, and I LOVED this music, especially the song that was played when talking about the churches in these towns. The singing was "angelic".😁👍👌
