Jackson recalls racist treatment from playing days | Dan Patrick Show | NBC Sports
/ nbcsports
This is the history that certain states don't want to be taught.
No, this the history people think their kids shouldn't learn about racism and the ramifications of it. Very sad indeed...
Certain states try all of them. Racial hatred is everywhere and in every state since the countries' beginning. Racial attroricities have been committed in everyone.
Lll
Conservative states , like Texas. They call themselves a freedom state, but they want to ban books, impose religion on people, control women. Texas is a backward states. An anti scientific and anti intellectualism state. Those poor conservative voters that want Trump back, they should keep in mind, he doesn't give a rat's behind about them. He wants to let corporations run without any regulations, and they would pollute our soil and water. Trump only wants tax cuts for the rich.
Certain states, how about all have a checkered past.
Much respect to Mr. October for telling what our people went through!!!
It took him going to his grave to speak ip
@@qwerty7761 Nah, Reggie has always told this story. Never on national tv before though. You better believe he's sat around with old timers and they remembered how it was.
"Why does everything have to be about race?"
In this country- one of the dumbest replies ever tapped.
The issue of race is just as far sweeping and prevelent today as it was back during Reggies' time in the major leagues.
Because people want to shut it down and silence the narrative it for thr moment it makes them feel more comfortable.
But it still simmers and manifests itself over and over again.
Talk it out. Confront it.
And if you dont like the subject- there is the exit door.
Allow others to come to grips with it and talk about it civily. When they do, those racist barriers will begin to crumble.
Exactly. That, and this dumb idea that all of this happened "a long time ago" . People like Mr. Jackson experienced this and are still alive.
What Reggie said was so factual and on point that you can barely find a comment on this thread that disputes it with personal idiotic political responses
Because people like Reggie are LIVING proof. Their usual "...it was a long time ago.." doesn't fly when someone is telling their lived experience.
They used to wonder why Reggie was always angry! This is freaking why! 👊🏾
It won’t surprise me if the media outlet store call Reggie Jackson woke🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
MAGA love to hear that.
Good for Reggie!
Very powerful not fake
We going to talk above the Black on Asian racism that was going on during the virus, that still goes on? Or we just being selective on what one we remember?
Why you act like this is new?
Those he's talkng about are modern day trump supporters.
Yea Reggie, and you still made millions of dollars as a professional baseball player...
REGGIE LIVED IT AND HE TOLD THE TRUTH.
Yes, he did, just like many of our ancestors who are still alive or deceased.We wonder why Blacks haven't been successful it's because of the effects of those times.
It was incredibly powerful. We don’t need Hollywood movies to tell us about it. We don’t need TV commercials. What we need is people alive witnessed these things that happened not too long ago and tell us their story.
To this day, grave yards in Alabama are de facto segregated.
It’s like that lots of places. Here in Kentucky too
No. Really? 😮
Wow.
I have ancestors in Mt Hope , AL in one of those . It’s called the black cemetery
Arlington National Cemetery was segregated! They announce and show it as part of their tour.
People continue to say things like “no one is alive” or “it happened so long ago”. This is why that recent ruling in Tulsa was so frustrating. For some reason, America cannot look itself in the face and say what happened was a complete destruction of a people and it has an impact to this day.
That's because this country is still doing it to this day
not that long ago I was 11 years old in 1963
Because the media wants it to stay that way
@@lightingbolt8148not the media, people with your way of thinking which is cool 😎
And 20 years before that they sent 10 million into a oven or into a gas chamber. Don’t ever hear anyone bringing that up.
People don't understand how long it bothers you and what you have to overcome to trust. I went through it as a kid and professionally in the banking industry, and it's just stupid that it doesn't stop. So, we must talk about it or it'll continue
People don't understand that there is still anti-Black racism
THIS STUFF STILL GOES ON TODAY!!!! in some cases it isnt as overt but it still happens.
Yeah, something like that happened to me just a few Saturdays ago.
I was a sports bar; enjoying the ambience. For a brief moment I found myself standing alone; silently drinking a beverage. Then - unexpectedly - two security guards approached me, and they told me that I had to leave. When asked why, they responded that the bartender had previously told me I couldn't cheer/exclaim _in the _*_sports_*_ bar_ . He, of course, never placed any such restrictions on any of the other patrons (all of whom were of a different demographic than me). I, of course, wasn't even making a sound (nor had I cheered since the bartender's targeted prohibition).
Obviously, i was shocked/perplexed, but I swiftly left without incident. And I've been on pins & needles ever since then (regularly wondering: what innocuous/common thing could someone take offense to (?)).
@@0-Elias-0 recently my daughter and I went to a restaurant. Asked how long was the wait. They said 10-15 mins. Then I proceeded to see families and other couples who came in after us get seated. At first I thought they had reservations. Then I saw another couple ask about the waiting time and they were seated ahead of us. I give you three guesses the ethnicity of my daughter and myself and the patrons who went before us.
@@stingrey1571 And you continued to stay? Like in, order food, and ate it when they brought it out to you??? 🤔 Hope they didn't add "certain" liquids not on the recipe. 🤢
Yes very much black on Asian and white racism go on.
Thank you and Mr Jackson for shining light on this history. 🇺🇲
What light?
@@lightingbolt8148 The blind do not see, therefore they do not understand what the sun looks like.
@@lightingbolt8148 the light of reality goofy
He needed to turn that lamp on in that dark room that so many awful people want to shut the door and said it never happened and has no bearing on lives in this day in age…well guess what…IT does matter, it does affect so many families to this day and will reverberate through our country until we face the racism and knock it down for good! Sadly DJT opened up a terrible casket of hate that he keeps feeding. God help us. Take care Reggie, you deserve calmness and peace in your life.
Twenty years after Jackie Robinson!
Dan Patrick used the term PTSD. I am a 59 year old black man and I am so frustrated as an educated veteran who has to deal with the attitudes of many Americans that don’t understand and appreciate the experiences of black Americans. The ignorance can wear you out.
Maybe it is ptsd
That's a prime example of PTSD
It's not ignorance, it's still racism and they don't care. Read Revelation 13:10 God cares.
*_Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome_* - Dr. Joy DeGruy
Black criminality is wearing the rest of us out.
I am glad Reggie told the truth. Much respect.
But there’re many people in this country who will hate him now. My mother and father didn’t talk about the major trauma they went through! It’s amazing what my teacher called us during class in elementary in the late 60’s. America will turn on you, if you dare say, racism traumatizes you.
jackie robinson died at 53....dont kid yourselves....the trauma that he experienced after breaking the color barrier led to a shortening of his life
💯
Maybe poor health
Nice story 😮
@@lightingbolt8148 Stress affects your health and he had extreme stress
this is the same thing as saying Reggie has lived a long life, guess he's full of crap about his trauma, or am I missing something?
Trauma never leaves you
Truth in real-time .
yup can only healed but still traumatized
Agreed. You could hear the pain in Reggie's voice as he told his story.
Dan...As a close friend of Reggie for 35 years , I never thought of his personality as being a part of PTSD even though i have heard these stories..He sent me this to watch and said " Dan describes this perfectly ". Thank you for being the professional that you are.
That trauma is like drug addiction. It never leaves you just learn to manage it better
If we lucky. What a real statement.
@@robertjordan525 thank you
This treatment of black people in this nation is why God is judging it! Repent and be baptized before it's too late!
America wasn’t Great in the past, it was seriously flawed. Thankfully some are trying to make things better.
Yep but so many think those days were the greatest. Look at the MAGA people...sigh.
@melissaford717 tell me what country is better a or was better 😮
Thank you, Mr. Jackson, sir, for the stories you shared of your pasted.....that as a blk man a part of my pasted as well.
this is why reggie was that and IS that dude. no Fs given. he always said what was on his mind and what needed to be said.
Thank YOU DAN PATRICK for speaking Truth and and being an advocate for change. YES we still have a LONG WAY to go, but telling the reality of discrimination is a stepping stone to its Destruction.
Well said Dan 💯
4️⃣4️⃣
Reg-gie! Reg-gie! Reg-gie!
"But America can't be a racist country, we had a black president."
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Okay bud
@@lightingbolt8148?
Thanks Dan. Mr. Jackson's words yesterday were powerful truth we all needed to hear. 👍🏽
I have been a Reggie Jackson fan since 1966 when he was a sophomore at Arizona State, but I had never heard the shocking story of the racist injustice he suffered.
reggie was courted by a number of southern universities who were ready to break the color barrier to have them on his football team
he turned them down because he knew how blacks were treated in the south
everything he feared would happen if he played college ball in the south, happened when he played minor league ball in the south
You have heard because your name is Clifford
America wasn't Great for Reggie
He loved Massa’ daughters too much to tell the truth back then, now he’s on his way to the graveyard and he’s speaking out… I guess it’s never too late huh?
Not at all surprised to the way he was treated,this still happens in america right till this day. There're still sundown towns here in the USA.
Reggie Jackson got them on a gut punch.
Reggie Jackson just described modern day EUGENE, OREGON. The bars downtown will literally single you out and tell you, that you are not allowed in or they will just ignore you until you leave. Ask any Black person that has lived there(except a college athlete, of course).
Wow
Okay
Whoa
Sure
Battlegrounds, WA, and Morton, WA, as well. I lived in nearby in Camas, Washington while working on my doctoral research. Decided to find hiking spots, ended up stopping in Morton (tiny town but big on LOUD racist conversations for the kick of seeing my reaction). Battlegrounds, again, out and about decided to stop at the Farmers Market. . .met with the craziest questions about my skin, hair, and . . ."what kind of Black are you?" And when I replied, I'm Ethiopian Black. . .Geographic ignorance of assuming Africa is a country instead of a whole effin' continent failed to sink into their 4th grade curriculum minds. THIS happened in 2020 right before the pandemic.
Lynn Swan had a lot of racial BS including beat up by cops. I'm sorry the internet today is making things worse again not better.
It's not worse. The Internet is just making it easier to see.
Its only worse because some people just want to hide these things
The internet has revealed what people really are inside and I don't mean just cowards.
It’s not worse it just make it seem like it is
MAGA History Lesson. God Bless Reggie Jackson, All-American.
MAGA is great with a good amount of amnesia thrown in.
MAGA has nothing do with that time. Trump came up with that statement. The current administration and the democratic party are the racist ones.
Nothing to do with that
@@lightingbolt8148 Everything. MAGA just wants to make everything like it was...jim crow, segregation, red lining, all of it. But there's no EVER going back, trust and believe that.
Imagine if the players in those days could tell their stories. He had a temper and he he needed it to survive
For those who didn’t watch the pregame live yesterday. Fox did NOT bleep out the 2 times Reggie said the Nwrd. 0:58 It went live on TV. (I’m sure they had a delay, but I’m sure they must’ve just let it go through, considering who was saying it)
These are the stories they're trying to erase
If he hasn't written a book, I hope Reggie Jackson documents all of this so history knows.
And it’s a shame that we as black Americans call each other the N word all the time.
Yep
You do not me. You know not all black people eat chicken?
It's poetry to most 😮
@Whatsmynamewhocares Justice and Reparations heals in real-time. Atonement Matters. Anti black racism is taught in America 🇺🇸. Backstabbing countrymen or real.
Not everyone. Even still it's a consequence of deeply ingrained self hatred based in state sanctioned racism
Well said, Dan
Love that he said that
The sad thing is that most Americans want us to believe that this is ancient history, and we should just sweep under the rug and forget about it.
Yet, we never get tired of movies about the Holocaust, World War 2 and documentaries borderline glorifying Adolf Hitler as a remarkable genius.
LOL
REPARATIONS FOR BLACK IS IMPORTANT.
YES!!!!
Japanese got them , slave owners got them , victims of September 11 families got them , and Americans held hostage in Iran got them !
Nah
@@lightingbolt8148 whatever
Let that go that won’t happen
Thank you for your sharing and that you are feeling for humanity. I love the honesty and your empathy. I had heard the mention of Jessie addressed as an African American though he was born and brought up in the States. Do you call yourself a European American? To each their own on how they want to be addressed.Thank you for contemplating
you got byron donalds saying black people did better during jim crow by the way
Who?
reggie said what had to be said
Two things will never ever go away and they're here til eternity:
1. RACISM
2. DRUGS
Gain the wisdom to deal with both through this journey called life.
Don’t forget ignorance.
@FortunateXpat Ignorance goes away with Wisdom. Ignorance is for the sheep, not for the lions of the world. Your welcome.
We shouldn't wait until Reggie passes....there's a movie right there in that short history lesson right there. That wasn't 1863, it was 1963. The Beatles, yes....but also Kennedy assassination, Vietnam and pure unadulterated racism alive and well....we have a short memory.
If you say so
This is the way that black people are treated in my current city of San Antonio. They probably won't blatantly kick you out, but they will give you the worst treatment or customer service. I will never compare today's racism to what my parents experienced, but living in San Antonio, Texas and traveling through Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and other parts of this country is eye-opening. Racism is alive and well. San Antonio practices a passive-aggressive version of Jim Crow laws.
I thought San Antonio was a good city for black people to live in? 😮
@@redrocket604 Nope. It's segregated!
I moved to San Antonio in October 2013, I was in Dallas in June of 2014. I saw this firsthand. The craziest thing ever. I lived on the Southside at first. Sheesh!
I would not go to Alabama at gunpoint.....what a backwards state.
Yeah I’m sure All are like that 🙄
That was a coward laugh
Wow, can you imagine if it was easier for him without all that stress, to just focus on baseball and lifting himself up, how much more of a performance we all would have been blessed with!? Just wow!
Now imagine the experience of the normal everyday citizen......
I think it's pretty jarring hearing Dan talk about how brave Reggie was and understanding the plight that he went through while also having so many police badges on his desk. Who do you think helped uphold the system that kept things segregated? Who do you think made sure those KKK members didn't get indicted?
Mr. Reggie Jackson was speaking 'His truth' & 'The truth'! Glad it made people squirm & feel uncomfortable.
Reggie just told the world how RACIST AMERICA IS THEN AND NOW.
Much respect to this man. He was the only reason as a wee tike I was even remotely interested in the game of baseball.
That said, times haven't changed one bit, just the tactics being deployed. You have a sitting president address blacks like dogs when the issues of reparations gets discussed. Add to that insult "you ain't black if you don't vote for me". A vice president that sent many blacks to their graves as an attorney general after sleeping her way to success. Only to tell them 'we can't just do things for blacks, its not fair to the other races'. But offering millions for Ukrainians to come to the US. And giving free subsidized healthcare to illegals as well.
Imagine all the stuff Dan said and apply it to a non ball player. That person has fewer advocates, fewer means, fewer people looking out for him. We're in 2024, and it's not much better than the 60s and 70s, really. We have people fighting against the teaching of the same history Reggie Jackson is speaking about.... and it happened in his life time. They whine about CRT, DEI, BLM, etc., but the truth is, we wouldn't need any of it if they hadn't treated people differently for 400 years.
At what point was God ever in America!?? I’ve always wondered because between the lynching and wicked legislation, I’m yet to figure out at what point God was here
Some people don’t want this thought in School . Because some may feel bad . In reality they are being Denied the Ability to Develop Empathy.
Why applaud him for saying people are racist..?
Why not address his complaints?
The. FOLKS that it does not affect or (effect) ask that question normally.
a bunch of police patches. bro who do you think enforced segregation? who enforces it now...
Not so much difference today!
We all still nervous!
FBA 🇺🇸.
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you for speaking on this Dan. Hello to you and the boys.
Ol Dem dan. Pushing his political agenda.
Reggie thanks we never get a fair shake……….😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
This is what MAGA is all about restoring the past.
I know he felt good to let it be known, i love talking to my elders, they were so strong!😢
Reparations now! Cut the check!!
This was 1967 not 1927 1937.....1967 wooow
That’s what I call real and it was no pressure the legend telling the truth and shot out to all those teammates who stood on good morels
I blamed Jesus for racism.
ONLY 30 year's ago.
WOW ESPN DIDN'T EVEN COVER THIS 😮
LBJ was correct, was he not?
Just in time for the elections
Amerikkka at it's worst !
🥲🥲
Reggie🙏🙏🙏🌸🌹
What's old man Patrick's Deal? Not Acknowledging The GOAT.
Barry >Dan's Ego
You're right. You never get over stuff like this. You learn to make peace with it if you can.
I have a new found respect for you Dan. Thank you
I did concessions at ballparks speedways etc..
You dont know unless you felt it Not a reality check ✅ but a reality F
While I know the history of the US, I fail to understand the animosity between whites and blacks in the 20th century to modern day. Reggie would have been welcome anywhere in Hawaii as far back as the 60s, beyond which I cannot say for certain as I wasn't alive; but I daresay he would have been welcome extending into the late 19th century.
Don't mention blacks. The slave ain't done NOTHING to ANYONE
That’s odd, because I have a friend, who happens to be black, and he said that while in the military stationed in Hawaii he found it to be one of the most racist places he had ever been🤔 I guess everyone’s perception is different😒
@@lisawicks8205 it is a very racist place
Write the check!
That was a Dave Chappelle moment.
I remember a few days ago some racist comments toward me because I’m whites at my apartment complex
Guess they won’t let you live there then.
@@MrRufusRToyota yea they may not actually cause I’m sure some how they will turn it around like I’m the evil racist whiter guy
What a drip
We'll ignore that 😮
Reggie sounds like a white guy
He sounds like an American ! A non foreigner non immigrant!
Wtf does that mean?
There is no such thing as sounding/taking white or black. Reggie speaks proper English and I guess you would not be familiar with the concept.
Right but let's go further, this is still happening today
Tell me where. Examples please 😮😮
WONDER WHY MUHAMMAD ALI TOOK A STAND
