it is the same today in 2018 what good is a part time job working 2 or 3 days at 10.00 or 11.00 an hour . you cant even live or buy food , but that is all that is out there today so we did not change to much did we ..
@vincent jones work hard? Been there done that. Work smart!! No country should build on the concept of working hard. It makes no sense. That's the slave mentality that this country built. Smh
Anyone can make it in 2018,it depends on the individual you can always work two jobs,but if you can do enough over at the one job you will make more money because it's time and a half pay. It also has to do with how you manage your money has a lot to do with it. And always put something aside each pay period very important to save. My great grandma worked as a maid and made whiskey and sold it back in 1920 bought her a very nice home,always had money. Yes in the USA you can make it.
This makes me cry for all of my ancestors and the people who fought for me to just be able to hit down on a bus drink from a water fountain swim in a pool drive a car sleep in my own bed thank you for what you have sacrificed for me and my children God bless you and may all your souls rest in peace
Every degree I’ve earned, I think about my grandparents and great-grandparents. They weren’t able to get their education, however their kids did. They all graduated from high school and many went off to college or joined the military. Fast forward to 2022, I have 2 bachelors degrees, 2 masters degrees, and working on my doctorate at an Ivy League University. Thank you for pushing and making us know and believe that we are worth more. Thank you for honoring the power of education and giving me my spirit for social work and social reform. Your work was not in vain. ♥️
@@lukworthy4582 exactly bro lol. They think they are going to change it from the inside not knowing they are being brainwashed and trained to do the very thing the system wants them to do. They are becoming even better slaves than our ancestors ever were bc they want to do the job. They just don’t get it. Now they are the very Marxists that the system wants them to be.
This has nothing to do with degrees but a fair wage and capitalism we been brainwashed into believing that indoctrination is education college is not for everyone I know you mean no harm in your statement but it shows how indoctrination has conditioned u it doesn't matter what yo occupation u should be paid for making a capitalist rich
Children today need to watch this documentary. I was born in 1960, my parents got lucky Mr Ford helped a lot of black people back then moved to Michigan to work for him, at Ford motor company, and both of my parents work for him. My dad only lasted 7 years and he died of kidney failure. But my mother retired and still lives today. She's 83.
We are still in bondage by the wicked but for a time. We are now walking in our Jubilee Restoration Exodus time out of Babylon 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾. We paid 4000 thousand years for our ancestors disobedience now it's the psalms 83 Confederates ⏰ time to pay back God.
Except that’s a lie. Black oriole in rural areas did better than most races.. the city was destroyed by liberals, and they continue to do it today.. there was more poor white and Asian people then, than any other race..
Harvest of shame, hmmm. Time has stood still, this situation is still happening where workers are hired and travel by agencies bus in batches to work at their haired destination. Taxed heavily and still live in poverty and hardly making ends meet, cannot afford to eat, pay their bills and even feed their children. More and more people becoming homeless. Going to work in these modern slave labor factors or farm picking field is another day fight to stay in one's job as you have to battle keep your job facing racism and covert bullying, intimidation to the point openly physically harrasing people in gang style mob. The policy that's in place is not designed to protect workers, it's there only to protect company as it's a battle to get support for people of colour reporting racism in workplace that leaves them cripple with fear loosing their job if they complain, not only that but fear of being physically hurt . this leaves them mentally drained to the point ended up in job poverty. NO COMPANY POLICY ARE THERE TO SUPPORT A WORKER, MUCH LESS A PERSON OF COLOR. MY EXPERIENCE AS WELL WITNESS OTHERS DISMISSED FOR REPORTING RACISM.

In modern day leftist politics, there exists an illogical way of "defaming" your opposition. It's simple, and for some reason very effective. You just call them racist. Who'd-a-thunk-it? Now, at the same time, we've heard of psychological warfare tactics that come in the form of "blame them for what you do". A reverse-psychology of sorts; because if you blame somebody of something, there's a 100% chance that you don't/didn't do the same thing, right?... Wrong, this is an overplayed tactic that the left has been using for sometime (as long as I can remember). It actually resembles more of a subconscious defense mechanism deployed by the mentally unstable because of their lack of ability to argue with Truth on their side. The reason I make this point of the underlying "game" that is being played is because we have empirical evidence presented to us in our very own History books of the big lie that is being portrayed on us. The left has and is blaming the right for the very thing that their party has obsessed on since the mid 1800's. Where-as the Republican Party, has historically been in favor of virtually all anti-racist laws. The List 1857: Democrat Supreme Court Justices ruled that slaves are not citizens and could not expect protection from the federal government. The final tally was 7-2, the only votes in favor of the slave were Republicans, all of the the votes against the slave were Democrats. 1863: Abraham Lincolns Emancipation Proclamation stated that all slaves were now to be free. Lincoln was assassinated 6 days after the Civil War by a Democrat named John Wilkes Booth. 1864-1869: Amendments 13-15; outlawed slavery (Amendment 1), made citizens of people who were born in the US, protected all citizens from unfair treatment by the states (Amendment 2) and protected citizens right to vote regardless of race and color (Amendment 3). All of the votes, House and Senate, including revisions, were split down party lines- Republicans in favor of, Democrats against. 1865: The Black Codes, created by the Democrats, these codes prevented blacks from things like owning businesses, owning property and voting. 1866: The KKK, another Democrat creation, formed as a "military like" presence to combat radical Republicans, enforce black codes and terrorize anyone who opposed their ideology (sound familiar). 1870's-1965: Jim Crow Laws, created by Democrats, basically a continuation of the Black Codes. Included things like segregation and played a part in restricting jobs and education. 1860's-1920's: Lynchings, used by the KKK as a way to strike fear into the hearts and minds of mainly black Americans and others who opposed their ideology. 1871: The Enforcement Act, not one Democrat voted for this bill that would punish violence perpetrated by the KKK. The bill did pass, however President Cleveland (another Democrat) repealed most of the bill roughly 15 years later. 1922: Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill did eventually pass but was filibustered by Democrats. 1960: Civil Rights Act, set forth for voter protection had a 78% Democrat disapproval rating determined by vote. 1964: Civil Rights Act, would end discrimination regardless of race, sex and religion, also provided more voter protection. Roughly 33% of Democrats voted against compared to roughly 19% of Republicans who voted against. Democrats also filibustered for 60 days. 1963-1969: Lyndon Johnson, he was quoted as saying "I'll have them n*ggers voting Democrat for 200 years" around the same time that he passed his infamous "Great Society" bills, which consisted of welfare, assisted housing and other programs of that nature. We'll discuss the "Great Society" and it's harm to mainly black Americans but also to poor folks of every color a little later. 1996: Hillary Clinton made a comment that inner-city blacks are super-predators and should be brought to heel. [8] 2018: Many Democrat talking heads made derogatory remarks about Kanye West after he visited the White House to talk with President Trump. One labeled Kanye West as a "token negro" and another said "Kanye West is what happens when negroes don't read." Wow, this list has some major talking points that should be answered for by Democrat leaders, especially the ones making the baseless claims that Conservatives are racist. Keep in mind, the only opposition that Democrats had since the mid-1800's is the Republican party; meaning that Democrats were basically always against the equal treatment of black Americans and on the contrary, Republicans were basically always for the equal treatment of black Americans. But now, with the wave of a magical wand, Republicans are racist.
@QCRoyaltyGirl my grandmother and granny lived through HARSH segregation (then again we are from SC), my granny died at 93 (she would’ve still been alive had she not tripped and broke her ribs) and my granny is only 63. It wasn’t that long ago at all!!! Especially since America held unto slavery for so long.
I was wondering if any of the children filmed for this report had seen it since they've grown up. I remember before Obama repealed the Smith-Mundt Act, when the news actually investigated stories and allegations and reported them truthfully to America.
I talk to my Father all the Time who is 89 he’s seen and lived through all of this and had to move to New York at age 18 to get work and more opportunity, then he had picking tobacco in NORTH CAROLINA. He often talks about how hard him and the family worked for little to nothing. My Grand Father would sign with an X! GOD BLESS THE ANCESTORS FOR THEIR STRUGGLE AND SACRIFICE!❤
Look up the Pecan Pickers Strike in Texas Most pecan factories in the US were in San Antonio,TX.And the majority workers were Hispanics. It should be on Wikipedia.
Man in one interview he ask the black family why did she? And acted as if the white family didnt do the same thing hell we was all poor. They had it like it was a black thing
@@TheBLACKMQQN & @vance little: There's several reasons, not all of which have been solved in the 40 years since 1960... Girls were expected to marry; the poorer the family, the younger the girl. Married girls were expected to fulfill their marital duties; according to the husbands desires & without benefit of any birth control - there's no such thing as 'No'. Welfare services, during this time & for several decades after, mounted concerted efforts to isolate fathers from the home; through threats & promise, leveraging people's basic necessities & whether or not they'll receive any. While this focus was primarily waged in black families at the time; all poor communities were targeted to some extent.
Do y'all see that teacher? That's the kind of teachers we had when I was young! They were respectable and respected, because they deserved to be respected. And they really did help you learn.
Exactly. Their mere presence garnered respect. Their presence made you want to be a better person. How they carried themselves, communicated, and their passion to teach is lost on this generation. I'm 43 years old and was blessed to have teachers like her along my educational journey.
It is incredible that this documentary originally aired on Thanksgiving day, 1960. Indigestion anyone? Thank you CBS, Mr. Murrow and all associated with it.
I can't help thinking this is a very carefully worked piece of propaganda designed to fill the viewer with anger and hopelessness. Even more so after reading your comment on when it was aired. I wonder what was in the news that week?
@@seankelly5318 it was part of a larger push for world and us hunger awareness. You'll see the presidential speech from that year touches similar notes. It was not designed to fill people with hopelessness but to push for a very specific set of goals. The UN was young and so was the idea of working on hunger and directly feeding people as a political issue was relatively new
What's worse it's that we've rebranded a holiday that celebrated the slaughter of countless numbers of natives and we still celebrate the day as if we have something to be thankful for its disgusting.
Too bad the mother didn't take that little boy to the doctor for that foot, or at least try to dress it better. I stepped on a board with rusty nails when I was a kid and had to go to the hospital for antibiotics. I'm surprised I didn't lose my leg!🥺
@@kathyh4804I don't need to live anywhere else. I have to ask for better from where I live now. America was never great for anyone including white Americans. If it was great, it wouldn't still have the class disparity it has now. 7M+ infected; 200K+ dead in less than 6 months. 15% unemployment maybe higher; police snatching people off the streets (Portland, OR). At 5:18 this lady is asking for basic needs to be fulfilled while living in America.

No, it was replaced by sharecropping and peonage labor and other forms of forced labor which largely though not exclusively targeted black people. No one ever asks why allegedly free people needed a "civil rights" movement 100 years after allegedly being freed in a so-called free country run by people who allegedly fled Europe to gain freedom.
Absolutely right, Eric Hiatt. I wish we had better information channels. About the last of the breed is Bill Moyers. Back in the day, there were many trustworthy newsmen and they drew big audiences. Is the change in ownership, or just don't we want the "bad news" a.k.a reality?
Absolutely devastating. Can you imagine seeing this on Thanksgiving? A true masterpiece. I have tried watching it all several times but I just can’t take it. What if this were your life? There but for the grace of God go I.
This is about my 5th or 6th time watching this documentary. It never gets old and it remains a reminder of part of a nation's suffering and hardships. When dirt poor REALLY meant DIRT POOR. Nostalgia overwhelms me whenever I see Edward R. Murrow. This documentary touches my soul. I cannot shake it. I watch this whenever I get a chance. It humbles me and keeps me grounded and mostly reminds me to count my blessings.
Until people give their hearts and lives to JESUS CHRIST this world will always be a Sinful and heartless nation. We all need to repent from our wicked and sinful ways before JESUS CHRIST comes back on earth or it will be too late to repent. Repent means to turn away from.
@@MikeTheWeedMan wickedness, injustice, indifference, selfishness, slave trade or this kind of thing here, is not a white man's disease. All mankind is guilty before God. Some are just worse than other, and others a bit better than those. Acts 2:38; acts 17:26-31 The poor and the rich have the same end - physical death and then judgment. Some rich men (like Abraham) are in Heaven and some poor people are in hell. Many rich people are in hell and many poor people are in Heaven. And the little children who do not know right from wrong, who die in their infant years, are safe in the arms of Jesus.
I was born in 1983. This break my heart to see & hear. I use to tell my Gma :I wish I was born back in the day, she'll say :I don't know how good I got it. And then she'll tell me stories about the old days( 40s-60s). And I couldn't believe what she & others went through. How hard she would have to work for a 1 days meal..We got it easy!
Not as easy as we should. And they're trying to back pedal us every chance they get, once we can all agree to get along and be cordial without the madness, we won't have it as easy as we should.
Absolutely not, you can work a full time job and start a business with the power of the internet, amazing times we`re living in, you can really get out of 9-5, and build financial freedom, these people did not had anything, nothing, no opportunity to get out, we`re amazingly lucky to be alive in this digital era, no excuses
@@susanmassey4158 I will assume that you posted this in good faith and do not realize that it isn't the whole truth. It is important to know the whole story in order to make informed decisions. In the 1950s and 60s, the platforms of the democrats and republicans switched places, due to the so-called [Southern Strategy](en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy) When the civil rights movement began in the 50s, Republican leadership *actively* sought the votes of white southerners. Until that point, white southerners had been staunchly Democrat, which had been the party of the remainder of the confederacy. The presidential platforms of both Barry Goldwater and Richard Nixon attempted to nationalize Jim Crow laws, which were 'in danger' of being dismantled. Nixon's public policies (many of which are still enforced today) were centered almost entirely on keeping control over the "other" races. This was all acknowledged in 2005 when GOP leadership apologized for "past mistakes". Also, this is not ancient history. Some of the people, and certainly most of the children we saw interviewed in this piece are alive today, probably including the guy claiming that migrant workers are "the happiest race of people on the planet".
Freedom always creates inequality. Nothing you can do about that. Every regime which comes in to eliminate it, only escalates the problem tenfold. The "holy" communist russia came in with the theme of eliminating poverty and starvation, instead they starved out 6 million purely on accident. This world is a hard place. The problem is westerns are given too much. I think it is great many have privilege and it is distributed amongst all the races, but too many spoiled kids whiny and cry about poverty to either join it or accept it. Goerge orwell noted this. There needs to be some accountability for your actions. Saying these poor souls got here out of no where is a lie. Now days, for instance, if you do not do 4 things, the chance of you being poor is reduced by 90 percent. So although we can have empathy for those in need, we must also accept their hand or parents hand in the situation they are in. I think if we as a society do this, say no more kids out of wedlock, no more 16 yr olds without jobs, no more hard drugs, we can create a place without poverty but that would mean accepting responsibility and that my friend is not an easy thing to do.

My grandmother was born in 1919. She passed in 2020. At the age of 101. Raised by her born in 78. It was always a pleasure and a horror at the same time too listen to some of the things she and others went through. It also made me wonder about what stories she didn’t tell me. These stories were the tame stories she told. I was able too experience some of this growing up in the 80s in various states. Iowa ,Nebraska, Ohio , etc. being the only person of color in most of the schools I attended.
Why is this still happening...did u hear that guy they love this not a care in the world they get to travel place to place without a care in the world wtf????

This truly a harvest of shame! My heart is really touched, particularly after watching all of the suffering and the unwillingness for leaders at that time to ignore. My folks moved to Michigan and worked for General Motors, in an effort to improve our family livelihood. God Bless these hard working people and, to my disappointment, the children who were allowed to work.
Dear Lord, I Am ungrateful. I do not appreciate life, I do not thank you enough. You saved me from being born during these times, and yet here I Am complaining about my life my whole life instead of saying thank you. I eat, I have a roof, I have a bathroom, I raised my children safe, these people suffered in ways they did not deserve, but yet they are humbled and here I Am complaining?.
Yes, Maria....We should be grateful we were not born then....those marching in the 60's in the south were truly courageous and made life easier for us today...John Lewis, who marched with King is the next greatest black man fighting for justice today.

@@tiredoftheworld4834 JOB 2:10 says "But he said unto her, Thou speakers as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God and shall we not receive evil? That is in Your bible. Your God oppresses people to the extent that gay Christian live in denial. Homo sex is an abomination according to Your bible. Yet right now, they are churching. Your book says its an abomination, therefore, they ate full of things Your god hates. The Methodists are splitting up into sexual and non sexual congregations. A pastor described the body of Christ as a cesspool. This was back in 1995. In a free society when you can do what you want, you still expect an outdated false religion to thrive? It can't, so it oppresses

1957 Civil Rights Act Republican President Dwight Eisenhower called out the 101st Airborne to protect Black school children from Democrat protesters after a Democrat governor refused to implement a desegregation order written by the Republican Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Republican Attorney General Herbert Brownell originally proposed the Civil Rights Act of 1957. Democrat Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson had Judiciary chairman Sen. James Eastland drastically water-down the House version, removing stringent voting protection clauses The bill passed 285-126 in the House with Republicans providing the majority of votes 167-19 and Democrats 118-107. It then passed 72-18 in the Senate, with Republicans again supplying the majority of votes, 43-0 and Democrats voting 29-18. Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts, who later ran for president, voted in favor of an amendment to water down the bill. Kennedy's 1957 book, Profiles in Courage, celebrated the vote of Sen. Edmund Ross to acquit Pres. Andrew Johnson, the first step in ending Republican Reconstruction reforms and paving the way for the Democrat era of Jim Crow laws and the segregation era. The 1957 Civil Rights Act was the first federal civil rights legislation passed by the United States Congress since the Republicans passed the Civil Rights Act of 1875. Johnson told Sen. Richard Russell, "These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don't move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there'll be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there'll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It'll be Reconstruction all over again.
It's still happening today, hiding this 3:57 evil is perfected now. Black, brown, poor, women - all still get paid less, even with unions, even with advanced degrees, it's no different.
that young boy Jerome is stronger than he knows , he has a nail in his foot and still has to watch the kids i wonder what how he grew up and what he came to be
@Anthonette Middleton He did make it to adulthood, although I’m not sure what age. I was searching on google and came across an article that mentioned him and showed a picture of him as an adult. But it did not give an update on how he is: www.google.com/amp/s/amp.palmbeachpost.com/amp/3429728001 There also is an article where Ella King (Jerome’s mother) is saying that there was inaccuracies displayed in the documentary.

I was born in 1959, in Boston Massachusetts. I am so glad I didn't have to live this way. I dare not look down on people who did. One lady said in this documentary, she is 29 years old and the mother of 14 kids. She went to the fields at 6 am in the morning and did not leave until 4 pm. After working 10 hours, she only made 1 dollar. SMH. A lot of these workers couldn't even afford the basic necessaries. Things we take for granted today. Roof over your head, food to eat, a place to bathe, decent clothes on your back. Lord I don't take what I have for granted. I thank you every chance I get. May God be the glory.
ROGER COOK THE WAY THEY TREAT THE DOWNTRODDEN IN BOSTON IS HORRIFIC. THAT IS THE MOST RACIST PLACE I HAVE EVER BEEN IN MY LIFE. EVEN PEOPLE OF COLOR THINK THEY ARE HIGHER AND MIGHTIER THAN THE NEXT PERSON OF COLOR. BOSTON IS FULL OF ARROGANCE AND PRIDE AND IT WILL SOON BE DESTROYED.
Thats where the saying came from, ' a dollar a day and deeper in debt ' . Lots of people worked that way. Everyone used to have land and a farm, until industrialization and urbanization. Thats these people. Remnants of what everyone used to be, displaced farmers , getting off the land and into modern life. That's why Mexican migrants came to work. In their countries too , the transition was happening. Now, migrants are the unskilled poor with no land to sustain themselves . And remember, there are now much nicer camps provided by big farmers. Barracks, bathrooms, showers, clean water and cooking area. Thing us, nobody wants to police it.
These young black kids stated around the 31-minute mark they would like to be a "doctor" or "nurse" when they grow up. As someone who works in a predominantly black middle and highschool, my students of color tell me they want to be a "rapper" or "football player"... This breaks my heart as a black woman.
@@24POWERS What's the likelihood of them becoming a rapper or professional football player? We need to start being realistic and teaching our youth their brains can be just as good as their physical abilities... We as black people put way too much focus into sports and not enough into education. Disagree if you want, but that will only keep our growth as a race stagnant.

I had to cry when the children had big dreams, but the teacher thought it was impossible to attained an education based on their circumstances. As a teacher myself I feel that we are failing our children when they are so confident and we tell them it's not possible. It is possible, sometimes all they need is the self confidence and the sky is the limit to what they will achieve.
As long as you "teachers" keep teaching us we are slaves and Lies in history you All are partiscipating in Genocide. I will NOT be sending my children or grand children to the bull shit learning system of lies yall put on Indigenous Americans.

June 22, 2023 At Least 16.8 Million Illegal Aliens are in the U.S., Costing Taxpayers As Much as $163 Billion Annually, Finds New Analysis by FAIR (June 22, 2023, Washington, D.C.) An analysis by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) of the most recent Census Bureau data reveals that at least 16.8 million illegal aliens now reside in the United States. This figure represents an increase of 1.3 million just since the beginning of 2022, and 2.3 million since President Biden took office in January 2021. Along with the sharp increase in the illegal alien population comes sharp increases in costs to American taxpayers. The unprecedented rate of influx of new illegal aliens over the past year would add $12.6 billion annually to the costs of illegal immigration, bringing the cumulative net cost to at least $163 billion a year. At the current pace of illegal immigration, the annual net cost will exceed $200 billion by 2026.

It's no different than today. Employers exploit their workers all the time. That will never stop. People just need to quit being naive and letting people take advantage of them. Sadly, this happens more to black people than anybody.

Remember, the 1930s were the great depression years. But in 1925 a loaf of bread costs about a dime, and a pound of round steak about 50 cents. Plus, slot of migrants got paid by what they picked.....and based on what the farmer was getting for the crop that year. I knew somebody who was a migrant worker in the 70s . White guy, citizen, had a wife and 3 kids I think. They were poor, but they had enough.

It is still done today. That young person at your door selling a alarm service or Magazines and even cleaning products is traveling state to state with others working for a company that puts them up in hotels and feeds them hot dogs but they make no money because they are told that the money they made has gone to the hotel and food.
NO OPINION, FACT, SLAVERY HAS NEVER ESCAPED BLACK FOLKS, DONT BE FOOLED BY UNCLE TOMS, DEPRESSION HAS ALWAYS BEEN OUR FIRST, MIDDLE, AND LAST NAME, SMH!!!!!!!
Yes SLAVERY Is still alive, Jim Crow just came up with a new way of doing things, it's a damn shame, when this country spent money on wars and don't take their own.
It is even harder to live it, from Georgia to New Jersey. I lived this with my family. As a child we got beat because the Plantation owners tell the People to beat their children to make them work harder, they had to. PARENTS HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO BEAT US. Up north they called them Farms but they were plantations just the same. I will never forget. WE were malnourished and had Rickets. Our joints would lock up and you could not straghten your leg out. It was very painful. I will never forget this evil demonic nation of people. May YAH"S JUDGEMENT COME SWIFTLY!!!
perez moore ...the hotel industry as a whole still practices this to this day. Supervisors, Houseman steal your tips, accounting forgets to pay you sometimes or deduct hours from your labor and most refuse to pay overtime when its mandatory you clean more rooms than what's on your board. They pay on average $11.00 - $12.00 per hour when the amount of physical labor is supposed to pay $17.00 - $25.00 per hour. It's a CUT-THROAT industry.

@@jackoffs8564 Some Africans did sell other Africans into slavery, and then on the other hand on many other occassions Europeans did in fact just kidnap unsuspecting Africans who might be out hunting, fishing, farming or walking from one village to another. The Europeans who were involved in the Transatlantic Slave Trade document in their own records how they at times would just kidnap unsuspecting Africans
Hill Aaron those "europeans" actually where Jewish people they owned the ships and the people working on them also that would have started a war if it was a common thing why would the leaders of Africa allow that? when they made.money off trading other black people who they branded and put in the ships I don't doute it may have happened but the main reason was African leaders being very greedy just as bad as the Europeans
Africans did not sell American Negros; Africans sold the ORIGINAL HEBREWS! You better recognize and learn the difference. A day of reconning is on the way. Deuteronomy 28th.

I was born in 1958. We in Great Britain never had as much as wealthy Americans but even our poorest folk had much, much more than these impoverished white and black folk. Free medical, dental and ophthalmic treatment, free school milk for all children from birth to 10 years old and free school dinners for those kids unable to afford them. Thank you for posting these excellent informative documentaries they make me grateful for my childhood.
America had provision for the poor, look at the children they are not starving. A brit of all people are going to lecture to the US? I've read David Copperfield, Ghandi , the boxer rebellion and the over 200 years of slavery by the Brits in America, India and Africa. The BOARS are being punished b/c of the brittish presence in s. Africa making the Zulu 3rd glass citizens in their own continent. your socialized med. is like the dark ages.
This was in the great depression. Plus, they lived in migrant camps , those weren't their homes. Many didn't stay in those areas but camped out on their own. In the great depression, alot of people lived like this and were glad to get a dollar a day. The media is making you dramatic.
Yes sister.....written in all the HOLY books. Its referring to us and that wicked people style as beast, devil, satan, pharaoh, Israel, dragon, mystery Babylon. There doom is inevitable...GOD is not mocked. Everywhere they've gone gone; kill steal and destroy. Behold the pale horse its rider's name is death and hell followed close behind..
Being from ancestors from Georgetown South Carolina. On both my mother and fathers side. I remember my mom , my grandmother ,my uncle my grand aunt talking about those days mWatching this video reminded me of the hardships that my ancestors endured. Most of my family moved to the North for a better educational opportunities and a better life. Even though in the north the work was hard there but there was better paying jobs and more opportunities. When my grand daughter gets a little older I will be telling her the stories of her ancestors. Amen 🙏🏾
I was born in 1956 and all of this was culture shock to me. I never was among the poor of the south or the worst conditions within the city I lived. *I was in total shock when I saw JEW-TOWN for the first time.* (shopping center in Chicago that's actually a slur towards the Jewish community.) (Eliminated now.) I've known hard times, but nothing ever like what these people suffered, to include the white ones. The children in this documentary are my age.
If this is what you got out of this documentary, you are completely off topic. Yes, DO complain about your job. It doesn't matter that you are better of than the people on the video, you are probably still taken advantage off. There are sure people way worse than those on the video, this doesn't mean they ought to stop fighting for something better. It's our sacred duty to help fight inequality, not bask on our luxuries, praising the god for them.
@@bernardheathaway9146 In full agreement with your comments! The system is designed to subjugate the people to object poverty while offering a glee of hope to the American dream with endless DEBT! There is great need to complain as to resolve the inequities.
Wow. I feel terrible for the woman with 9 kids. She's about the same age as me but she's so aged. Life took such a toll on her. I hope she found some hope and relief from poverty.
@@RicheeBe if you don't want kids, dont have sex, dont get married. Marriage was the way to make sure the father took care of the mother and children. Dont want kids? Dont get married and dont mate with anyone. If you don't want your animals having kids, and kittens and puppies and guppies and calves etc., you don't let the males and females have sex and breed. Besides, these kids would take care of parents when they got old and infirm.
@vincent jones Yea that will solve a nearly 500 year problem. No schooling is necessary to recognize a demon. Why do you think she was talking about white people when she said demons. Politicians and world leaders are pretty demonic white or black

I love that they didn't just show black ppl. I'm Black but this just shows how messed up the world is. Just a piece of America. Showing both black and white struggles. There are so many more "races" struggling as well. This is political and inhumane then and now. My heart goes out to these individuals/families. I hope the chain was broken for them. Pray for the world. 🙏🏿💜
32:43 Absolutely broke my heart. 😢 My Grandmother was very smart but due to the segregation laws in Virginia at the time, black people were not allowed to attend school beyond 8th grade. At which time she began working to help bring money into the household, then at 19 she began a family of her own. I wonder what her life would have been life if she didn’t face those educational restrictions during that time.

"what's that straw over there for" "Well that's what they give us to sleep on" Ladies and gentlmen this is unregulated capitalism. Take a good look at it. Tell me what you see.
I went through this growing up, but never stopped trying, through cotton fields, juveniles, reform school, prison, sweat shops's, a railroad hobo, I finally made it and retired on a pension!
17:10 she really wanted to say more but she had to keep it somewhat light on her response while being questioned I can feel she wants to say more than what she was saying #RestInPeaceQueen you have inspired me to keep researching and learning
Oh Jerome I wanna hug him and care for his injury. Bless these souls. These parents did the best they could. God keep us from repeating these awful atrocities. Help us learn.
Which is why the prayer over my food is Always; “May all the hands who touched this food, from crop to truck, from processing to cashier, be held with grace; May each one, without exception; of all shades, ethnicities, genders, and ages; be safe, receive the abundance due them, and feel loved.” Short and simple! The person who harvested your food this morning may have been deported, be a starving farmer, or loose their position.
Before you pray you must REPENT. Either you do or you are abomination to God He who turns away his ear from listening to the law, Even his prayer is an abomination. - Proverbs 28:9 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, But the prayer of the upright is His delight. The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, But He loves one who pursues righteousness. - Proverbs 15:8-9 When you say "genders" God made only two, man a woman, period. God will not bless a wicked person who is a man and identifies as a woman and vice-versa, neither one who identifies as having "just a different sexual preference " you get my point, He will not bless a person as to have salvific grace but only common grace...so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. - Matthew 5:45 Meaning God feeds one but if the one does not repent he'll end up in hell..Period. Also when you say "the person who harvested your might have been deported " if you are illegal go back to your country and get legal, God hates illegal immigrants who brake His law..Romans 13:1-5, 1 Peter 2:13-17,Titus 3:1 When you say "abundance due to them" Who owes them?? Do you owe them? Me? Who? God is the giver of all....The eyes of all look to You, And You give them their food in due time. You open Your hand And satisfy the desire of every living thing. - Psalm 145:15-16 Does God owes anything to a person?? No, of course not, He is gracious and gives, but He is under any obligation to feed no one, We deserve nothing but His just wrath. We disobeyed in the garden and died so we are under acurse...We killed his Son so we are under a curse..we are guilty, We must REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND OR ELSE..PERIOD. SO REPENT AND BELIEVE IN THE TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUSCHRIST FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
This broke my heart. My partners grandfather was one of these workers, traveling back and forth from the southern states to Jamaica to send money to his family. He was one of the few lucky ones to be able to settle down and raise his children to have a better chance with higher education. He got lucky that way, unfortunately so many of these families werent so lucky. It hurts to know that this horrific treatment of migrant workers has not ever stopped either. The migrant workers of today are still facing the same circumstances, the same treatment and extremely low wage. This is modern day slavery. Its been like this for so long and I wish it would change but I cant see it being changed. People didnt care then about these poor black and white families and they dont care now about the poor Central American and Mexican families. They see them as lesser, as just labor to be used, not worthy of respect or better working conditions. Its horrific. It needs to change.
@@juniaosme2396 At a $1 a DAY even working 365 days of the year is $365! The average Yearly wage in 1960 was $4000! So I really don't get your point. If they were getting a $1 an hour then this documentary would have never needed to be made. Maybe you didn't watch the whole documentary, but did you not hear that it cost $15 a wk just to rent a room? Did you not see the signs that showed that it was 22 cents just for a shake? Did you not hear the preacher talk about how the crew captains would take half the pay of some of the workers, leaving them with cents. I dont know what world you live in, but a dollar a day, even in 1960 was incredibly low wage.
@@tinyspaceroadie Actually my point in putting that up there was so that we could see the value of a dollar from 1960 verses what it is in today's market which is nothing. If you listen to what the preacher said the crew leader was ripping these poor farm workers by keeping all of the money. That's why they couldn't survive. If you feel like you need to attack someone I'm not the for it because it is extremely obvious that these people were living way below poverty. Alene Keen couldn't afford to take her son to the doctor to remove a nail from his little foot. She couldn't afford to put her babies in daycare leaving them to fend for themselves during the day. Lord only knows what situations happened to some of these children by predators. I couldn't see myself handing $302.10 for 30 days work to a person and me pocketing $140,382.16 in today's market.
How much more are willing to pay for fruit and vegetables ? What about factory workers who lost jobs so you can still pay a $ for a plastic container ? Their jobs ended up in china where they get $20-$30 a month . Basic human reaction never pay more if you don’ t have to !
I couldn't believe the lady worked all of those hours... and only got $1. If she put her babies in the daycare, she would have made 15 cents. I know it was 1960, but damn !
Deneen Jeffries *Its no different today. Plenty of migrant workers who make just pennies a day, can’t feed their families and typically are crammed in a very small house with a ton of other migrants because no one can afford anything of their own*
I want to add to the previous comment. If you're interested you can look up for the CWI or the Coalition of Immokalee Workers based in Florida currently is fighting for higher wages for farm pickers. Today, a farm picker earn about 42 cents for a bucket of tomatoes collected. At the end of a 12 hours shift, they just have a little bit over 45 dollars.
Deneen Jeffries im know..lord have mercy..14 kids 29 yrs old ..how lord?? I admire her strength! Those black ppl wouldnt or couldnt even look the inteviewer in the eye..shame smh
I'm 60 disabled and living out of a car for 2 yrs now and almost died of double pnumonia last winter spending 6 weeks in intensive care because living in a car 24 hrs a day prevents me from being considered a priority for staying in a shelter as long as ppl are sleeping in bushes on the street they will always be a priority .They say a car is shelter vs nothing and with ppl being flooded and burned out of homes the numbers are rising daily

What a damn shame. Nothing has changed except the year! We must speak up for migrant workers. They are the people who really feed us, the workers who are out in the fields! I thank them
You say we must speak for migrant workers now - you are talking about immigrant (foreign) migrant workers who are taking up our space and our money, and seeing this video that was taken back in the 1960s that we were and will do all jobs even working on farms, and we are the best at it that is why we had the best food and the best country of all countries even though monsters kept the money away from many many blacks....migrant workers today are treated way better than the Americans in this video and America is our country and not theirs - and AGAIN, this video is proof we don't need them and never have.

The only way an employer is granted visas is if he can proof that there is a shortage of people that want the jobs... I hate people that think like you, y'all want to pick a fight and want to throw American minorities in the front line, like if they where test dummies, these people dont want to work those shit jobs, they know better, they want better... No one is taking up space when all they do is work and put in towards the American the economy... If they live better than some Americans its because they work for it and the Americans your talking about are the ones that don't want to do shit and just want to take up space and government money to shoot up drugs like the people at those camps in California... that's where you should begin your battle and ask them if they would like to live better to go and work the farm and put the H2As out of a job... Shit might look easy but if you see the millions of stocks on a sweet corn field and your pulling your row if you dont pull one ear from every stock your getting knocked off! i had new pullers hand swell up and not close! the machine look like a dam snail from far but when you down there pulling that shit is flying and it aint stopping for you!...

Anyone can make it in 2018,it depends on the individual you can always work two jobs,but if you can do enough over at the one job you will make more money because it's time and a half pay. It also has to do with how you manage your money has a lot to do with it. And always put something aside each pay period very important to save.

Harvest of shame, hmmm. Time has stood still, this situation is still happening where workers are hired and travel by agencies bus in batches to work at their haired destination. Taxed heavily and still live in poverty and hardly making ends meet, cannot afford to eat, pay their bills and even feed their children. More and more people becoming homeless. Going to work in these modern slave labor factors or farm picking field is another day fight to stay in one's job as you have to battle keep your job facing racism and covert bullying, intimidation to the point openly physically harrasing people in gang style mob. The policy that's in place is not designed to protect workers, it's there only to protect company as it's a battle to get support for people of colour reporting racism in workplace that leaves them cripple with fear loosing their job if they complain, not only that but fear of being physically hurt . this leaves them mentally drained to the point ended up in job poverty. NO COMPANY POLICY ARE THERE TO SUPPORT A WORKER, MUCH LESS A PERSON OF COLOR. MY EXPERIENCE AS WELL WITNESS OTHERS DISMISSED FOR REPORTING RACISM.

In modern day leftist politics, there exists an illogical way of "defaming" your opposition. It's simple, and for some reason very effective. You just call them racist. Who'd-a-thunk-it? Now, at the same time, we've heard of psychological warfare tactics that come in the form of "blame them for what you do". A reverse-psychology of sorts; because if you blame somebody of something, there's a 100% chance that you don't/didn't do the same thing, right?... Wrong, this is an overplayed tactic that the left has been using for sometime (as long as I can remember). It actually resembles more of a subconscious defense mechanism deployed by the mentally unstable because of their lack of ability to argue with Truth on their side.
The reason I make this point of the underlying "game" that is being played is because we have empirical evidence presented to us in our very own History books of the big lie that is being portrayed on us. The left has and is blaming the right for the very thing that their party has obsessed on since the mid 1800's. Where-as the Republican Party, has historically been in favor of virtually all anti-racist laws.
The List
1857: Democrat Supreme Court Justices ruled that slaves are not citizens and could not expect protection from the federal government. The final tally was 7-2, the only votes in favor of the slave were Republicans, all of the the votes against the slave were Democrats.
1863: Abraham Lincolns Emancipation Proclamation stated that all slaves were now to be free. Lincoln was assassinated 6 days after the Civil War by a Democrat named John Wilkes Booth.
1864-1869: Amendments 13-15; outlawed slavery (Amendment 1), made citizens of people who were born in the US, protected all citizens from unfair treatment by the states (Amendment 2) and protected citizens right to vote regardless of race and color (Amendment 3). All of the votes, House and Senate, including revisions, were split down party lines- Republicans in favor of, Democrats against.
1865: The Black Codes, created by the Democrats, these codes prevented blacks from things like owning businesses, owning property and voting.
1866: The KKK, another Democrat creation, formed as a "military like" presence to combat radical Republicans, enforce black codes and terrorize anyone who opposed their ideology (sound familiar).
1870's-1965: Jim Crow Laws, created by Democrats, basically a continuation of the Black Codes. Included things like segregation and played a part in restricting jobs and education.
1860's-1920's: Lynchings, used by the KKK as a way to strike fear into the hearts and minds of mainly black Americans and others who opposed their ideology.
1871: The Enforcement Act, not one Democrat voted for this bill that would punish violence perpetrated by the KKK. The bill did pass, however President Cleveland (another Democrat) repealed most of the bill roughly 15 years later.
1922: Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill did eventually pass but was filibustered by Democrats.
1960: Civil Rights Act, set forth for voter protection had a 78% Democrat disapproval rating determined by vote.
1964: Civil Rights Act, would end discrimination regardless of race, sex and religion, also provided more voter protection. Roughly 33% of Democrats voted against compared to roughly 19% of Republicans who voted against. Democrats also filibustered for 60 days.
1963-1969: Lyndon Johnson, he was quoted as saying "I'll have them n*ggers voting Democrat for 200 years" around the same time that he passed his infamous "Great Society" bills, which consisted of welfare, assisted housing and other programs of that nature. We'll discuss the "Great Society" and it's harm to mainly black Americans but also to poor folks of every color a little later.
1996: Hillary Clinton made a comment that inner-city blacks are super-predators and should be brought to heel. [8]
2018: Many Democrat talking heads made derogatory remarks about Kanye West after he visited the White House to talk with President Trump. One labeled Kanye West as a "token negro" and another said "Kanye West is what happens when negroes don't read."
Wow, this list has some major talking points that should be answered for by Democrat leaders, especially the ones making the baseless claims that Conservatives are racist. Keep in mind, the only opposition that Democrats had since the mid-1800's is the Republican party; meaning that Democrats were basically always against the equal treatment of black Americans and on the contrary, Republicans were basically always for the equal treatment of black Americans. But now, with the wave of a magical wand, Republicans are racist.
The doby family mother is my great grandmother. My nanny is one of the girls. I'm very thankful for that woman and what she did for her family.
Wow which girl was your grandmother?
@QCRoyaltyGirl my grandmother and granny lived through HARSH segregation (then again we are from SC), my granny died at 93 (she would’ve still been alive had she not tripped and broke her ribs) and my granny is only 63. It wasn’t that long ago at all!!! Especially since America held unto slavery for so long.
I was wondering if any of the children filmed for this report had seen it since they've grown up. I remember before Obama repealed the Smith-Mundt Act, when the news actually investigated stories and allegations and reported them truthfully to America.
Wow, another pathological liar...
Mrs.Doby was the 1st lady on the step shown, no?
I talk to my Father all the Time who is 89 he’s seen and lived through all of this and had to move to New York at age 18 to get work and more opportunity, then he had picking tobacco in NORTH CAROLINA. He often talks about how hard him and the family worked for little to nothing. My Grand Father would sign with an X! GOD BLESS THE ANCESTORS FOR THEIR STRUGGLE AND SACRIFICE!❤
Amen
My mom was a farmer too, fixed the marital home only to be homeless after. She said marriage is a welfare cheque for lazy men
I started working at 9 years old but it helped living off the land native American veteran
My mouth dropped when the lady said she worked from 6-4 picking beans and only got paid $1 that is crazy wow.
Damn, adjusted for inflation, that's about 11 dollars in today's $... She was making 1.10 hr... Despicable.
Back then you probably could rent a small shotgun style house for $25.00 a month!
I dont know what it's like to make $1.00, but I have worked for $3.00 back in my day for 12 hours, up at 2am and cutting fruit by 4am.

With 14 children
I’m glad these documentaries exist, we need more people educated
When the lady with 14 kids had to leave her kids to make one dollar breaks my heart
Why did she have 14 kids?🤷🏿♂️
Man in one interview he ask the black family why did she? And acted as if the white family didnt do the same thing hell we was all poor. They had it like it was a black thing
but what do you think of the decision to keep having children when she and her 14 were already struggling?
@@TheBLACKMQQN & @vance little:
There's several reasons, not all of which have been solved in the 40 years since 1960...
Girls were expected to marry; the poorer the family, the younger the girl.
Married girls were expected to fulfill their marital duties; according to the husbands desires & without benefit of any birth control - there's no such thing as 'No'.
Welfare services, during this time & for several decades after, mounted concerted efforts to isolate fathers from the home; through threats & promise, leveraging people's basic necessities & whether or not they'll receive any.
While this focus was primarily waged in black families at the time; all poor communities were targeted to some extent.
@Le Colosse that may be part of it...but, she stated she's 29yo. 14 kids means, at best, she started at 17...more likely 15.
Americans have made all kinds of noises about crimes against humanity, all over the world ! EVERWHERE EXCEPT IN AMERICA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do y'all see that teacher? That's the kind of teachers we had when I was young! They were respectable and respected, because they deserved to be respected. And they really did help you learn.
Exactly. Their mere presence garnered respect. Their presence made you want to be a better person. How they carried themselves, communicated, and their passion to teach is lost on this generation. I'm 43 years old and was blessed to have teachers like her along my educational journey.
It is incredible that this documentary originally aired on Thanksgiving day, 1960. Indigestion anyone? Thank you CBS, Mr. Murrow and all associated with it.
I can't help thinking this is a very carefully worked piece of propaganda designed to fill the viewer
with anger and hopelessness. Even more so after reading your comment on when it was aired.
I wonder what was in the news that week?
@@seankelly5318 it was part of a larger push for world and us hunger awareness. You'll see the presidential speech from that year touches similar notes. It was not designed to fill people with hopelessness but to push for a very specific set of goals. The UN was young and so was the idea of working on hunger and directly feeding people as a political issue was relatively new
What's worse it's that we've rebranded a holiday that celebrated the slaughter of countless numbers of natives and we still celebrate the day as if we have something to be thankful for its disgusting.
No major TV network would ever air this now, let alone on Thanksgiving.

All I can think watching this is that slavery never really ended🤔
Right
No, it was replaced by sharecropping and peonage labor and other forms of forced labor which largely though not exclusively targeted black people. No one ever asks why allegedly free people needed a "civil rights" movement 100 years after allegedly being freed in a so-called free country run by people who allegedly fled Europe to gain freedom.
We all cant drive a Mercedes
I hope this comment is paired with the observations that the slaves are from many ethnicities.
i wholeheartedly agree with you the shame of it all :(
I wish we still had newsmen of the integrity and caliber of Edward R. Murrow. The true reporter is a dying breed.
Absolutely right, Eric Hiatt. I wish we had better information channels. About the last of the breed is Bill Moyers. Back in the day, there were many trustworthy newsmen and they drew big audiences. Is the change in ownership, or just don't we want the "bad news" a.k.a reality?

This is about my 5th or 6th time watching this documentary. It never gets old and it remains a reminder of part of a nation's suffering and hardships. When dirt poor REALLY meant DIRT POOR. Nostalgia overwhelms me whenever I see Edward R. Murrow. This documentary touches my soul. I cannot shake it. I watch this whenever I get a chance. It humbles me and keeps me grounded and mostly reminds me to count my blessings.
It does humble you. It is truly heartbreaking. Second time myself.
Dirt poor means, you are so poor you literally eat DIRT, to survive, saw this IS documented in Southern USA.
I’ve watched it several times myself.

@@MikeTheWeedMan exactly my point...
Until people give their hearts and lives to JESUS CHRIST this world will always be a Sinful and heartless nation. We all need to repent from our wicked and sinful ways before JESUS CHRIST comes back on earth or it will be too late to repent. Repent means to turn away from.
@@MikeTheWeedMan
wickedness, injustice, indifference, selfishness, slave trade or this kind of thing here, is not a white man's disease.
All mankind is guilty before God. Some are just worse than other, and others a bit better than those.
Acts 2:38; acts 17:26-31
The poor and the rich have the same end - physical death and then judgment. Some rich men (like Abraham) are in Heaven and some poor people are in hell. Many rich people are in hell and many poor people are in Heaven.
And the little children who do not know right from wrong, who die in their infant years, are safe in the arms of Jesus.
I was born in 1983. This break my heart to see & hear. I use to tell my Gma :I wish I was born back in the day, she'll say :I don't know how good I got it. And then she'll tell me stories about the old days( 40s-60s). And I couldn't believe what she & others went through. How hard she would have to work for a 1 days meal..We got it easy!
What the hell ??? What type of black person wishes to be born back in the day ?? You're weird for that
Not as easy as we should. And they're trying to back pedal us every chance they get, once we can all agree to get along and be cordial without the madness, we won't have it as easy as we should.
Poor gettin' poorer and the rich getting richer!
Nothin new under the sun...
Yet the poor are more humble
Absolutely not, you can work a full time job and start a business with the power of the internet, amazing times we`re living in, you can really get out of 9-5, and build financial freedom, these people did not had anything, nothing, no opportunity to get out, we`re amazingly lucky to be alive in this digital era, no excuses
@@poolnights9236 I agree with you.
This is a damn shame while they are free they're unemployable, but as slaves you worked them to death
Just think about it these are the days of the United States being ruled by the Democrats they care about the poor just as much now as they did then.
@@susanmassey4158 I will assume that you posted this in good faith and do not realize that it isn't the whole truth. It is important to know the whole story in order to make informed decisions.
In the 1950s and 60s, the platforms of the democrats and republicans switched places, due to the so-called [Southern Strategy](en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy)
When the civil rights movement began in the 50s, Republican leadership *actively* sought the votes of white southerners. Until that point, white southerners had been staunchly Democrat, which had been the party of the remainder of the confederacy.
The presidential platforms of both Barry Goldwater and Richard Nixon attempted to nationalize Jim Crow laws, which were 'in danger' of being dismantled. Nixon's public policies (many of which are still enforced today) were centered almost entirely on keeping control over the "other" races. This was all acknowledged in 2005 when GOP leadership apologized for "past mistakes".
Also, this is not ancient history. Some of the people, and certainly most of the children we saw interviewed in this piece are alive today, probably including the guy claiming that migrant workers are "the happiest race of people on the planet".
@@nobody8328 she did not have good intentions. She was spitting out white racist propaganda. You gave her the truth
@@susanmassey4158 Que the propagandist
So true
"Maybe we think too often in terms of Thanksgiving baskets and Christmas baskets and charity instead of thinking about eliminating poverty." Spot on.
Yes, that hit me differently, too.
Freedom always creates inequality. Nothing you can do about that. Every regime which comes in to eliminate it, only escalates the problem tenfold.
The "holy" communist russia came in with the theme of eliminating poverty and starvation, instead they starved out 6 million purely on accident.
This world is a hard place. The problem is westerns are given too much. I think it is great many have privilege and it is distributed amongst all the races, but too many spoiled kids whiny and cry about poverty to either join it or accept it. Goerge orwell noted this. There needs to be some accountability for your actions. Saying these poor souls got here out of no where is a lie. Now days, for instance, if you do not do 4 things, the chance of you being poor is reduced by 90 percent. So although we can have empathy for those in need, we must also accept their hand or parents hand in the situation they are in. I think if we as a society do this, say no more kids out of wedlock, no more 16 yr olds without jobs, no more hard drugs, we can create a place without poverty but that would mean accepting responsibility and that my friend is not an easy thing to do.

1957 Civil Rights Act
Republican President Dwight Eisenhower called out the 101st Airborne to protect Black school children from Democrat protesters after a Democrat governor refused to implement a desegregation order written by the Republican Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
Republican Attorney General Herbert Brownell originally proposed the Civil Rights Act of 1957. Democrat Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson had Judiciary chairman Sen. James Eastland drastically water-down the House version, removing stringent voting protection clauses The bill passed 285-126 in the House with Republicans providing the majority of votes 167-19 and Democrats 118-107. It then passed 72-18 in the Senate, with Republicans again supplying the majority of votes, 43-0 and Democrats voting 29-18. Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts, who later ran for president, voted in favor of an amendment to water down the bill. Kennedy's 1957 book, Profiles in Courage, celebrated the vote of Sen. Edmund Ross to acquit Pres. Andrew Johnson, the first step in ending Republican Reconstruction reforms and paving the way for the Democrat era of Jim Crow laws and the segregation era.
The 1957 Civil Rights Act was the first federal civil rights legislation passed by the United States Congress since the Republicans passed the Civil Rights Act of 1875. Johnson told Sen. Richard Russell,
"These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don't move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there'll be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there'll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It'll be Reconstruction all over again.

Thats where the saying came from, ' a dollar a day and deeper in debt ' . Lots of people worked that way. Everyone used to have land and a farm, until industrialization and urbanization. Thats these people. Remnants of what everyone used to be, displaced farmers , getting off the land and into modern life. That's why Mexican migrants came to work. In their countries too , the transition was happening. Now, migrants are the unskilled poor with no land to sustain themselves . And remember, there are now much nicer camps provided by big farmers. Barracks, bathrooms, showers, clean water and cooking area. Thing us, nobody wants to police it.
These young black kids stated around the 31-minute mark they would like to be a "doctor" or "nurse" when they grow up. As someone who works in a predominantly black middle and highschool, my students of color tell me they want to be a "rapper" or "football player"... This breaks my heart as a black woman.
We’ll look at the lives of football players, looks pretty nice to me. Rappers and athletes become “professionals” all the time.
@@24POWERS What's the likelihood of them becoming a rapper or professional football player? We need to start being realistic and teaching our youth their brains can be just as good as their physical abilities... We as black people put way too much focus into sports and not enough into education. Disagree if you want, but that will only keep our growth as a race stagnant.
That's because they are paid more than a doctor or teacher. The kids only know this by the glamorous lifestyle portrayed.
@@meagancooper4551that’s because white society has made us place value on ourselves by only on how entertaining we are to people or how well we can catch a football or shoot a basketball. Watch Umar we need to change the psychosis of our people

the look of despair on these families faces angers and hurts my heart
I had to cry when the children had big dreams, but the teacher thought it was impossible to attained an education based on their circumstances. As a teacher myself I feel that we are failing our children when they are so confident and we tell them it's not possible. It is possible, sometimes all they need is the self confidence and the sky is the limit to what they will achieve.

At Least 16.8 Million Illegal Aliens are in the U.S., Costing Taxpayers As Much as $163 Billion Annually, Finds New Analysis by FAIR
(June 22, 2023, Washington, D.C.) An analysis by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) of the most recent Census Bureau data reveals that at least 16.8 million illegal aliens now reside in the United States. This figure represents an increase of 1.3 million just since the beginning of 2022, and 2.3 million since President Biden took office in January 2021.
Along with the sharp increase in the illegal alien population comes sharp increases in costs to American taxpayers. The unprecedented rate of influx of new illegal aliens over the past year would add $12.6 billion annually to the costs of illegal immigration, bringing the cumulative net cost to at least $163 billion a year. At the current pace of illegal immigration, the annual net cost will exceed $200 billion by 2026.

Remember, the 1930s were the great depression years. But in 1925 a loaf of bread costs about a dime, and a pound of round steak about 50 cents. Plus, slot of migrants got paid by what they picked.....and based on what the farmer was getting for the crop that year. I knew somebody who was a migrant worker in the 70s . White guy, citizen, had a wife and 3 kids I think. They were poor, but they had enough.

Which is why the prayer over my food is Always; “May all the hands who touched this food, from crop to truck, from processing to cashier, be held with grace; May each one, without exception; of all shades, ethnicities, genders, and ages; be safe, receive the abundance due them, and feel loved.” Short and simple!
The person who harvested your food this morning may have been deported, be a starving farmer, or loose their position.
Based on what they paid the labourers, I doubt the farmers were starving 🙄
Before you pray you must REPENT.
Either you do or you are abomination to God
He who turns away his ear from listening to the law,
Even his prayer is an abomination.
- Proverbs 28:9
The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,
But the prayer of the upright is His delight.
The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,
But He loves one who pursues righteousness.
- Proverbs 15:8-9
When you say "genders" God made only two, man a woman, period.
God will not bless a wicked person who is a man and identifies as a woman and vice-versa, neither one who identifies as having "just a different sexual preference " you get my point, He will not bless a person as to have salvific grace but only common grace...so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.
- Matthew 5:45
Meaning God feeds one but if the one does not repent he'll end up in hell..Period.
Also when you say "the person who harvested your might have been deported " if you are illegal go back to your country and get legal, God hates illegal immigrants who brake His law..Romans 13:1-5, 1 Peter 2:13-17,Titus 3:1
When you say "abundance due to them" Who owes them?? Do you owe them? Me? Who?
God is the giver of all....The eyes of all look to You,
And You give them their food in due time.
You open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living thing.
- Psalm 145:15-16
Does God owes anything to a person??
No, of course not, He is gracious and gives, but He is under any obligation to feed no one, We deserve nothing but His just wrath.
We disobeyed in the garden and died so we are under acurse...We killed his Son so we are under a curse..we are guilty, We must REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND OR ELSE..PERIOD.
SO REPENT AND BELIEVE IN THE TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUSCHRIST FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
This broke my heart. My partners grandfather was one of these workers, traveling back and forth from the southern states to Jamaica to send money to his family. He was one of the few lucky ones to be able to settle down and raise his children to have a better chance with higher education. He got lucky that way, unfortunately so many of these families werent so lucky.
It hurts to know that this horrific treatment of migrant workers has not ever stopped either. The migrant workers of today are still facing the same circumstances, the same treatment and extremely low wage. This is modern day slavery. Its been like this for so long and I wish it would change but I cant see it being changed. People didnt care then about these poor black and white families and they dont care now about the poor Central American and Mexican families. They see them as lesser, as just labor to be used, not worthy of respect or better working conditions. Its horrific. It needs to change.

Actually my point in putting that up there was so that we could see the value of a dollar from 1960 verses what it is in today's market which is nothing.
If you listen to what the preacher said the crew leader was ripping these poor farm workers by keeping all of the money. That's why they couldn't survive. If you feel like you need to attack someone I'm not the for it because it is extremely obvious that these people were living way below poverty. Alene Keen couldn't afford to take her son to the doctor to remove a nail from his little foot. She couldn't afford to put her babies in daycare leaving them to fend for themselves during the day. Lord only knows what situations happened to some of these children by predators.

How much more are willing to pay for fruit and vegetables ? What about factory workers who lost jobs so you can still pay a $ for a plastic container ? Their jobs ended up in china where they get $20-$30 a month . Basic human reaction never pay more if you don’ t have to !
Oh bullshit. The immigrants today are mostly criminals looking for a hand out. Sorry, but that's what the government has now created.
When the lady said she was 29 and had 14 children I almost passed out 😮
I couldn't believe the lady worked all of those hours... and only got $1. If she put her babies in the daycare, she would have made 15 cents. I know it was 1960, but damn !
Deneen Jeffries *Its no different today. Plenty of migrant workers who make just pennies a day, can’t feed their families and typically are crammed in a very small house with a ton of other migrants because no one can afford anything of their own*
I want to add to the previous comment. If you're interested you can look up for the CWI or the Coalition of Immokalee Workers based in Florida currently is fighting for higher wages for farm pickers. Today, a farm picker earn about 42 cents for a bucket of tomatoes collected. At the end of a 12 hours shift, they just have a little bit over 45 dollars.

What a damn shame. Nothing has changed except the year! We must speak up for migrant workers. They are the people who really feed us, the workers who are out in the fields!
I thank them
You say we must speak for migrant workers now - you are talking about immigrant (foreign) migrant workers who are taking up our space and our money, and seeing this video that was taken back in the 1960s that we were and will do all jobs even working on farms, and we are the best at it that is why we had the best food and the best country of all countries even though monsters kept the money away from many many blacks....migrant workers today are treated way better than the Americans in this video and America is our country and not theirs - and AGAIN, this video is proof we don't need them and never have.
@@crazydaysful Well said. #ADOS
People like to compare their selves with other's- if i was rich like my x- man then our have food and a bed to sleep in' lord help your children and people
@@crazydaysful to start off you won't do it, you won't pack a crate of corn for 15cent a crate you pack, you wont pull corn for 1cent a crate of how many crates the crew pack, you wont throw or chop cane in the furrow fields... you're just being racist because when it comes to this video based on people from the glades in belle glade, these farms are handled by alot of legal work force, Hatians and H2As... The only way an employer is granted visas is if he can proof that there is a shortage of people that want the jobs... I hate people that think like you, y'all want to pick a fight and want to throw American minorities in the front line, like if they where test dummies, these people dont want to work those shit jobs, they know better, they want better... No one is taking up space when all they do is work and put in towards the American the economy... If they live better than some Americans its because they work for it and the Americans your talking about are the ones that don't want to do shit and just want to take up space and government money to shoot up drugs like the people at those camps in California... that's where you should begin your battle and ask them if they would like to live better to go and work the farm and put the H2As out of a job... Shit might look easy but if you see the millions of stocks on a sweet corn field and your pulling your row if you dont pull one ear from every stock your getting knocked off! i had new pullers hand swell up and not close! the machine look like a dam snail from far but when you down there pulling that shit is flying and it aint stopping for you!... I've walked behind some of the new ones telling them every 10 minutes "move up i got this your getting left behind" and iam here pulling what they left about 20 ears in my arms like iam carrying a dam baby...
Judith Campbell I didn’t know Black & White workers were considered migrant workers??
It would be nice to feature an update on these families.
Queenie Bee This will be the family's future update! OUR ANCESTORS AND WE THERE DESCENDANTS THE TRUE BIBLICAL ISRAELITES!! if we repent in the land of our captivity and come back to the Lord our God and keep his commandments... JEREMIAH:30
wow ... yes !
hard to update fake actors of a fake video
This was over half a century ago....
@@billsmlth5381 yeah I definitely back then not fake now yeah come on really
America you will be held accountable for your selfish deeds.
Animals get treated better then humans
Glad I got to see this newsreel to be woken up.
It's digusting I'm so sad
Dean Guando Even animals don't treat humans like this.
@@sparx180 Yet animals instinctively know when to stop breeding based on their environmental conditions.
@@normster1000 So what nonsense are you trying to say? The slave owners wanted them to breed, more workers for them. The slave owners had no problem helping them breed either. Bare that in min!
@@sparx180 Clown. The slave owners? It's the 1960's. That being said 76% percent of African American mother's in 2019 give birth out of wedlock.
Black families on average have 2.5 children per household ( 3 or more) Does that sound ideal to you for a single mother?
The Booking Institute (Liberals) found that maintaining a job, getting your high school diploma and being married before having children is the best way to avoid poverty.
Wow! It’s like watching my literal family history. I remember hearing stories like this. My uncle would head north to pick fruit and such. My father immigrated here in the 60s to cut sugar cane. Everyone quit school to work. No one ever went much into the details. I both love and hate watching this.
This is very sad, especially the young woman who’s 29 with 14 children! 😢😢😢
My Grandfater lived to be 100 years old in 2020. He never would give much detail on these days it’s liked he blocked it out.
@@ohmyland2148 No, it's because it wasn't a big deal to them. You people should stop judging that time period by today's standards. 🙄
Mine too...My mom & GMA use to tlk about this. My GMA upgraded to the Eugene Hotel with 8 kids. ❤️ That was a big deal. My GPA was 1 of 17...I can't even imagine.
I know a white guy, about 70 now, used to take his family migrant working from Florida to Michigan. He never could work a regular job . They stayed in a tent in Florida. He said no matter how hard you tried, nobody could pick organges or apples faster than the Mexicans.
He said, "they like it, they have gypsy in their blood, they just love it. " 60 years ago. Shame, shame, shame!
That part! That part just made my skin crawl... It's no different to a few of these scums out here now.
This clown that said this sure do need to get hung with some gunpowder up his behind...etc. etc.
You get my drift...
Lord forgive me!!...that really made me angry!!!
Sounds like Heathen Genes
He was calling them Jews (from ancient Egypt) and no one caught that.
Do you know that same man has child he brought up with that mentality , and those children has great great great grandchildren today with that same mentality
This documentary is very humbling! Make you appreciate the current times we live in.
