Lay My Burden Down (1966)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 июн 2020
- Made for public TV documentary from 1966 surveys the accomplishments of the civil rights movement during the one year after the dramatic Selma-to-Montgomery march and the ensuing voting rights act of 1965, as observed in the status of tenant farmers whose average earnings are less than $1,000 per year, and who live in constant debt to white plantation owners and the company store. Explains that the rural Negro is no less hungry, no better educated and no more powerful politically than he was then. Urges that the Federal Government create more jobs, allocate poverty-funds more equitably, and police the agriculture department more effectively. From the Internet Archive www.archive.org
Made by civil rights documentarian Jack Willis (1934-2022) jackwillisfilms.com/ . His entire film collection was donated to the University of Washington in St. Louis (library.wustl.edu/spec/jack-w...)

I concur!

500 acres was stolen from my great grandmother who couldn’t read or write she was scammed into signing over her land by writing the letter X for literally nothing lawd I’m only a teen but when I watch videos like this and think on the stories my elders have told me I feel a deep hurt and anger
I feel for you...the con is unforgiving ly still on.!!
If you can remember the names and dates. Call on your ancestors to help you get the land back. Find a lawyer put it on record. Also put it in a newspaper or an article online.
Vengeance is mine says the Lord...
Thank you for keeping this at the fore front of our existence in this country. Today's youth need to be made aware of this. This was only 50-60 yrs ago and it was quite sickening and evil to see how our our southern sisters, brothers, mothers,fathers, etc, had to live and suffer like this!
That makes me sick!
Great example of the history behind systemic racism.
NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED SINCE FILMING . 1966 / TODAY IS JUNE 2020 . I'VE BEEN OVER THIS ENTIRE COUNTRY . THIS IS BRUTAL, BUT TRUTHFUL. LIFE IS VICIOUS . GOD BLESS.
This channel should seriously be on tv
Put it on TV and they will find a way to destroy it because it exposes their evil, wicked ways to keep black people down.
T J. Right
Absolutely on TV
I was 11years old in 1965, and living in Los Angeles and still recall.those years because even in Los Angeles racism was common.
Yep Pedro, & am sure you’re very familiar with the Watts riot in ‘65. Sad times for every generation it seems.😔
My dad taught me about these times. May he rest in peace, he and his siblings were born during the Great Depression and he said times were tough and those white folks were ruthless, remorseless and didn't want you to have dirt. There were poor whites, but I dare ANY white person to switch places with us. They'll be extinct due to mass suicides. But glory to God Almighty YOU CAN'T HOLD US DOWN!!! HALLELUJAH 🙏🙌👏
Praise Ye the Lord for his mercy. God bless the souls in this film Have mercy Jesus!
but where was god for 400 years ? did it help you ? or laws help you
@@ipeeinmysinkimafraidtocome7127 God has always been here. God has never promised we never see hard times or experience tragedies in our lives. But He has promised a life in eternity where there will be no more hatred, racism, sickness, crime, money, poverty or greed. That place is called Heaven. Faith, obedience and belief in God is all we need.

This is hard to watch but necessary... We should understand that these monsters have not changed a bit and waiting for them to do so is futile.
No dude what you need to see is how very different you and your generation are from these people. In fact immigrants are closer to these people than your lazy, entitled, disrespectful generation!
I Agree.
@@julianG1212why are you here you folks just can't help yourselves
You're right! Their whole agenda is to diminish the power of every black man woman and child!
@@julianG1212 What rock have you been living under! Their are young racists who were taught by the old ones! Why do you think there are over five hundred white Supremacist groups in Amerikkk! Who do you think are protecting these groups! You will be surprised I'm not!
38:15 sister got more balls than any man in the building. Salute sister.
Sadly we still do
Who sent you?? with your gender divide agenda!
Yeah because if it was a man saying the same thing on camera he would've been hurt or dead. My dad lived back then and it wasn't easy. He was born in the 1930's.
@@leiab365wrong answer. Let’s not pretend that a man speaking like she did wouldn’t hand gotten him killed. She did that in the name of our people not just women. Stop that. And men talking that bs against our women are wrong as shit too. All we got is Us
I can only pray these people were compensated for being in this documentary
Are you serious ? They didn’t get shit
That "yes, sir" black man? Like Harriet Tubman stated, "he had NO idea that he was free." He was intimidated by white oppression and white rule. These scenarios really showed the faith that my people held. This makes me that much more thankful for the pain-staking roads that they paved. Thank you, ALL!

Fast forward 55 years later, June 7, 2020 .... We're still fighting for equality smh, LOVE your channel , keep up the good work!
I was just thinking about that. I live in Texas, and these white folks ain't no better.
Lol no you’re not
Why are some of us acting as if equality is something that has to be given to us?
That's the problem!

Thank you so much for the upload I sincerely wish we could get young people to watch programs like this I think somehow it may make a difference with them seeing what we have gone through and still going through I might add!
This needs to be, by law, a part of the curriculum in every school across this nation and its territories. And, it need there needs to be an exam like the constitution that it becomes a requirement for graduation form grammar school, high school and college. It would be required all years of middle school and high school - it's America history and is must be taught. No diploma or degree without passing the class. & exam.
@@nyla3235 I agree with you 100% And I'm so happy that you put this in a wider perspective than I did. I'm so glad that someone else sees things the way I do thank you for your reply and thank you for your big like!
Though A Lot Of African Americans May Not Like This Documentary; This Is The Way It Was, Especially In The South. This Is True History And Need To Be Told. Especially In The Classroom Of Every African Americans Schools To The Younger Generation; Not Just In February: Black History Month. So They Can See What There Fore Father’s Had To Go Though. And You Know, We Are “ Still “ Going Though With Some Of It To This Very Day !!
Needs to be shown in ALL CLASSROOMS for every race. I hope it'll change the White Race. But I don't know. I taught my children to not see with their eyes when they see different skin colors, but to look in other people's eye's and hearts and to just see the person and that we all come from GOD so therefore we all have the same blood coursing thru our veins- Red Yellow Black or White we are precious in HIS sight.
The crazy thing is my grandfather went through this and he had stayed working for the same family that enslaved his grandfather.
Facts: Back in the mid and late sixties. I remember the black kids would get old school books from the white schools. We had to use what we had back then and most of us became educated black people despite the oppression.
My same sentiments
Thank you,for keeping it real...We need to relive and learn.This already happened,what people doing today!!?!
I grew up in Montgomery and I never knew about this documentary. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
Alot of them back then acknowledged The Most High inspite of what they went through. Thats absolutely beautiful. STRONG...Praise Yah. I know the strong faith they had in The Most High got them through many many trying days. Praise Yah for HIS strength HE instills within HIS children no matter the situation or circumstance 🙌🏾
I was MORTIFIED at 9:50 when the black man was intimidated to tell the truth with all of the answers that were being tossed at him by all the white men! MORTIFIED!!
Thay man steadying saying "yes sir"
His facial expression says it all.
I know right? I felt bad about how they demoralized that man. The just took away his masculinity and he was afraid to say the wrong thing 😡
You can tell he looked scared
THEN CAN YOU IMAGINE IT IS HAPPENING TODAY?/
FOR MONEY, A JOB, FOOD STAMPS, SECTION 8, CHILDSUPPORT, SOCIAL SECURITY (ANY OF THEIR SOCALLED BENEFITS OR SUPPLEMENTS)- PRESTIGE OR JUST NOT TO FEEL "BLACK"🤔🤏🏾
OR THE REALIZATION OF WHAT IS REAL AND MORE CLEARER TO THE EYE THAN IT WILL EVER BE.👀😬
-UNDER THE POWER OF THE "OPPRESSOR"-
IS THE CORRECT DEFINITION OF OPPRESSION
SAD🙄
I was born in 1973. And it is not much seems to have changed. I hope to see change in my lifetime.
Wow, isn't that rich for him to say that the blacks are happy? Oh, no, I don't think so! There were many blacks that would grin in their faces just to get along, because they were oppressed and had to make a living even in such a harsh environment....sadly, most of our blacks are doing so much better today and still have a slave mentality. God has seen it all and vengeance is His, not ours.
Okay...how aRe we doing much better?
Yes, God has seen every bit of it, and they will pay dearly on judgement day.
Historically the two worst experiences for black people in America: 1. The rural deep South; 2. Urban ghettos.
You ain't never lied. But at 7:30 I wouldn't have had nan child. But I understand that were the norm back in those days and time.
Have Mercy Lord!
Anybody can be nobody but everybody can be somebody ! 🌹She reminds me of my auntie , love ya.......When I went to school in the south , 1979-85 , they were still paddling as a means of disciplinary actions.....
My God it seems back then we as a people got alone much,much,much better than these time and days.
"We have the laws. We have the wealth. We have the ingenuity to solve any problem that we really care about."
Blacks possess mighty Resilience and faith. Injustices too long. But God shifting.
Amen
Wish young people would take time to watch that might appreciate the sacrifice for the freedom and opportunities they enjoy the people who endured didn't get to take advantage of them
REPARATIONS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely NOT. That will divide the country (& racial schism) even further. That’s simply treating a symptom of the overall disease. Do better.
Thank you for this footage
Such powerful content 😮😤✊
What a powerful woman..I wasn't born until...1973.(6/16)..But,wow...
Thank you for this channel it has blessed me and my family
They always put this in black and white so we will think it happened a while ago but they for sure had colored cameras in this time
Black and white cameras are cheaper
Colour cameras were available, but most people had black and white TV sets in the 60's so it was pointless to use colour film.
Do you mean that the film makers in the 60's deliberately used black and white film, just so people in the 2000's would be fooled into thinking that 60's documentaries were older than they really were?
That makes no sense at all.
Thank you for uploading all this gold.
A step above slavery.
Shameful in 1966 my lord
Where is the family with the 7kids?? Someone,has to be living...I was wondering...
@Choria Jackson, The parent's are prob in their 70s-90s now, and the children, age 60+/under, so yes, if the members hadn't passed, they could/should still be around. Would be something to know who this family was. We are a strong, resilient people.
My mother in law grew up in the Jim Crow south and walked 2 miles to school, the white children rode the bus to a better school 1 mile away and spit on the black children out the bus window. Things have changed but you have to get equal education for all.
Our strong Black brother sang the song of the Movement .
and mentioned John Brown ..the best friend our people ever had ..Bless you Dr.King on your birthday today ..and bless John Brown and the countless others who stood with us during the struggles of those dark days ..our people are a strong courageous people ..and one day soon "We Shall Overcome "..
Yes Sir, Yes Sir, Yes Sir, Yes Sir.....Standard answer to the white man's face. Behind the Black man's closed door, there is another "standard answer". 👿👿👿💀💀💀💩💩💩🐷🐷🐷🐍🐍🐍🐀🐀🐀🦨🦨🦨.
Excellent broadcast!!!!!
WOW! that baby could be me. That's the year I was born. This was hard to watch!
This is the unique history of African Americans #ados in this country. We shouldn't allow anyone else to use our history for their benefit! This is not Obama's lineage, this is not Kamala's lineage, this is ADOS lineage!
thank you for the wonderful work you have been doing all these years BRAZIL LOVES YOU REEL BLACK
Brazil treats Black people even worse than America.
Love your videos....nice to hear goin to looptloop...much better than hokey pokey and learning a lot about how things were. Thank you ma'am
Nice looking family. Too good for you
We as a people “SHOULD NEVER EVER FORGET OUR HISTORY AND THE EFFECTS OF IT NEVER”. This is why it’s imperative that we MUST TREAT OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS BETTER, because NOBODY ELSE WILL.
I am so sad to see this. Also sick to my stomach. They would have hung me becauseI have to big mouth.
ME especially!!!!! I would be dead!!
OMG,WHAT the little old lady was getting up to give that white man the chair 😔😔😔🤬🤬🤬
That was taught back then, you still might POC Boomers & GenXers who instinctively still do this.
tanny morrison I noticed that too! Unbelievable...how do people conduct themselves as God fearing people? How do you call yourself a man?
He was such an obedient black
@tanny morrison true, but told her to stay in the chair, probably because the camera's were there....smh!

That Was Filmed The Year I Was Born.
That mule farmer. Sad, shameful he worked so damn hard his entire life, barely could get $50 loan to help which was dear to pay back & probably w interest: what might all he have accomplished for himself/his family/descendants if he´d have had opportunity to accomplish something from all his hard work his entire life with something tangible to show for all his lifetime of hard work. Sad,shameful his teeth, clearly he got no help with dental care (or probably any doctor), must´ve been painful for him, in addition to all his futile work. IMHO the worst thing that has survived slavery is the lack of education/access to education; food insecurity; lack of prenatal care for mothers; & the profitable prison system. A white cop recently put it well: he tried to help a black teenager who´d have lost his job bc his taillight was out & he couldn´t afford it....Cop got suspended without pay, for helping a good neighborhood kid, instead of writing tickets etc which put money into the city/hands of local officials (recent incident). I think the cop was not in The South. Sorry if I´m not allowed to comment, did not mean to but in or be disrespectful:)

Protect this channel ♥️
this was going on in 1966! just the other day! this is ridiculous
OmGOD THIS is EXACTLY what I said… 1966 smh
Absolutely smh
People act like this is been a hundred years ago.. My brother was born in 64. My sister born in 68 and I was born in 1970....
I always told my daughter and son not to have kids until they were educated, had at least 200k saved up and a good job. I didn't say not have sex though, just no babies. Both are early 30's and no kids, no needless suffering and I can age peacefully. Never saw the logic of bringing kids into this mess of a world after I got educated after making my 2 mistakes. Not religious
I share your same sentiments. Why would you bring a child into that? If anything that’s selfish. You can’t even feed yourself, how are they going to eat? Regardless if more people can help you “work”you have to take care of them and teach them. The adults should’ve came together and built a community together. They came together to buy into the lies of that church and to have a bunch kids. So many didn’t and don’t have to suffer. I can’t believe this was STILL happening in the 60’s, black people are more broken than I thought. I live in the south and KNOW people who still think and talk like this oml.
Thank you
Satan means one who oppresses. We have had an oppressor for a long time.
The fact that Black Americans are referred to as "The Negroes" in this film is indicative of a far deeper PLETHORA of problems we have only now in 2021 begun to seriously address. Why? Thank you for posting these videos. You have a very important channel. :-) Power on!
I watch this documentary and see some of the reactions to the people in the film and I can't help but wonder, what changes did anybody expect to see in just one year following the marches, demonstrations, and public outcry? It takes MUCH MORE than the simple signing of documents and the public-facing fight for equality. Who, from the people who organized and led and spoke on behalf of equal rights/ voting rights/ the downtrodden black folks stayed behind to ensure the transition of the conditions from what was to what it should be? Once the fighting is over and the battle is won, who is assigned to implement the changes that are supposed to improve the lives of the impoverished? After the fighting is done, the fighters move on and leave the people to their own devices?
At the start of the documentary, it was stated that millions of blacks moved north for work and opportunities. But several millions more blacks were still living in the same conditions that had been there before the marches and demonstrations. I'm curious to know what good became of the documentary? Did organizers return to the area on the behalf of the people? There's a cause for every fight. But there's not a fight for every cause. The ones that make the headlines get the publicity, but the failure seems to be that people get the notion that once the fight is won, the work is done. Unfortunately, once the fight is won, the fighters move on to the next fight and the ones that the fighters were fighting for are left behind with no understanding or power to do the work.
I'd like to see the follow-ups to these documentaries to see how things progressed after this documentary was completed.
Excellent comment…& so very true! The problem is that you can’t legislate one’s heart. Only ONE way for this to come about.🙏✝️
Retribution time is nigh!!! All praises to The Most High God of Israel!!!
31:54 "...been in my folk´s since 1895..." What/who has? That shack (I assume former slave quarters? which clearly he never saw fit to make inhabitable or more comfortable in the least:( ) or the woman´s family (as in her ancestors who had been slaves, so that was why they were sharecroppers at his land)?
I’ve seen this my entire life!

@ 58:40, when the older gentleman couldn't lift his eyes nor head high.....I'm sure it because he was feeling the heaviness and burden of not telling the truth about what he'd experienced.
It’s hard to believe that school was in my lifetime. I was ten years old when this was filmed. I would have loved to see the teacher at work.

Alright y'all Family Friends let's do Whatever to Share love with One Another 🥥🍇💕 We are More than Conquers 😁💝💯🌴
I want to watch this video but it is just too painful 😢. I was raised in the South but left at 20 years old. I lived in a small town. My family did not deal with direct racism, but heard a lot of things from others. I moved to Long Island, New York but experienced a different kind of racism.
The Black Community and Black people as a whole go through a lot because of their skin color not their characters.
I grew up on Long Island, am white. I’d like to know what racism you experienced and how it was different from in the south. Also, what time period would you be talking about?
@@mariekatherine5238 I lived there from 1981 to 2007. I will say I experienced it at work and in college. There are parts of Long Island that are segregated and there are parts of the south that are segregated. Thank God I had a union job.
@@mariekatherine5238 The type of racism we experienced is red-lining from banks. My parents had $5,000.00 dollars in the bank in 1960’s and still could not get a mortgage from Chase bank to purchase our home. The white man who liked my father fronted for him, rent to purchase until he was able to get a mortgage from Jamaica Savings. The took their money out of Chase. This was in Queens, NY. Then I think about being one of the few blacks in IGC classes so-called intellectually gifted classes. Looking back I think this was a tool used to segregate students within the same school.
I mark today as June 17, 2022 and Justice for my people is the same now as back then , evasive and long coming.... for the sadness of the children's eyes says it all.
The children in this video are alive now. And their children have children. Barely 3 generations.
I once read that economics plays apart in racism along with other issues of racism and I find that very true today.
Even in the twenty first century and even having a Black man elected as the president of the United States ,some White people for the most part resent Back people having more than they do or achieving success !!!
I picked on this when a White mortgage banker from a well known bank ,tried to stick me with a predatory loan ,with all kinds of points.mortgage insurance,and an adjustable rate mortgage.
She resented that my being a single Black man was purchasing a 3,000 square feet home and I could tell by her demeanor that she was very upset .
What makes this even worst,is this was the bank that I was banking with and had all my money deposited with.
She didn't know that I bought my first new home when I was 23 years old and I knew all the ins and outs regarding purchasing a new home
Thus I walked away from the home and the B.S. mortgage and got myself a "White mortgage " with better financing ,better home and better location .
All I have to say is that it was a blessing in disguise and I came out on top!!!
9:50 OMG!!!!
Look how far we’ve come! Smh
The power structures are still going strong as of 12/21/22. The debt is mounting.
Sad. Black folks have come a long way.

Good evening young people @ ReelBlack , I am your friendly neighbor “ Over 60’s “ new followers , I just finished watching your documentary about the Deep South and it’s land owners and Our Grandparents as its care takers . I am not good at all at short sound bites your Gen. texts , especially when it’s matters close to my Heart and Soul. I’m not from the South , I’m a Cali. Bra. , but I kept hearing my subconscious speaking louder and louder as I listen to the middle to older white men in a group of about 6 and the one older black man seemingly 70ish , as he was “ skin-in and grinning, dropping his head at the exact moment he knew they were looking at him , all the while from a lifetime of practicing and perfecting his craft of “ mind- comp.” without missing a single que or glance , those “ Crackers “ were being played by the Chest master himself ! Bravo Mystro Bravo !! servant.
I grew up in Mississippi in the 1950s and 1960s and have always hated racists and racism, which was why I have always been a loner (because I wouldn't ascribe to the ignorance).
In private moments, how did white people talk about black people? I can definitely imagine, but I saw a documentary clip where the descendant of a former slave owner said that, back in slavery days, BO were thought of as pets-animals slightly more intelligent than your average dog or cat, and were treated as such if not worse.

Tragically, this was the world & way of life in the Deep South of which Emmett Till was totally unaware….& which got him senselessly & needlessly murdered. But, dying a martyr, he unknowingly started a movement which shook this country to its core. RIP🙏
Think about it, this was just about 56 years ago this year. Those little kids if they're alive are now probably parents/grandparents themselves. Imagine what their lives might be now. My heart hurts just watching the suffering at the hands of white supremacists structures even back then. Shit is crazy man.
