      E Mack Yes, unfortunately discrimination occurs across the board, regardless of skin colour. Ironic, isn't it? Wherever there is ethnic difference people will find a reason to hate. Still, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger :) I know most racism is simply a fear of the unknown and try not to take it too personally.

    • @elainebmack
      @elainebmack 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I agree with you wilde childe. Anytime one is different from others, there is the possibility of discrimination. There's nothing for you to do except be yourself and move on. There will be people who see you as a human being, and there will be others who never will. You just keep on living.

    Housewives in the 1950-60s were usually active in their community and at that time community events were still popular. Many also attended church and were very involved with church functions. They also hosted dinners and parties in their homes. The point is they weren't bored with only housework and children to keep them occupied. Hobbies and clubs were also still a big deal, as they have been since the 19th century.

      Yes, and don't forget women meeting up to go to the salon to get their hair/nails done or to newly established supermarkets. Also clothes shopping with their husbands' disposable income was common as mass produced clothes outlets became a staple for many. Housewives in middle class households were spoiled by today's standards as it was more expected the man buy lavish gifts like diamond jewellery home after payday.

      @@aboutashow true, but when it’s a close family member it can get complicated. That whole topic was so taboo in my family that I felt like I was doing something wrong even learning about it at school. There was a huge, invisible wall that you just didn’t dare climb over because you knew if Opa found out it would trigger nightmares and “screaming in the night” (my mum’s earliest memory) and Oma could get hurt if he lashed out in his sleep again. It just wasn’t worth the risk. So you pushed it aside. After he died 10 years ago, I read about it a bit and watched a couple of documentaries, but it’s really only since Oma died last year that I’ve felt like I’m able to delve into it more deeply and have even ordered a book about it just recently. And yet I’m also finding I need to skirt around the edges somewhat, by which I mean I’ll research a whole lot about Britain during the war and then throw in one documentary about concentration camps or Holland and then I go back to British history. It’s just too much emotionally to focus entirely on the horrors that the people I loved so much experienced. I can only take it in little snippets.
      I’m not saying the way my family handled it was right, but because of it I can understand how it’s possible that the lady in the show knew nothing about what her father had been through. Some people talk about it when they experience oppression, others shut down. If her father shut down like my Opa did, then her not knowing about it makes total sense to me.

    I was a child in the 60's with teenage siblings in the US. Most teens did not move out of the house in the 1960's there were run away laws and you could be arrested taken back home even to abusive parents, kids had little to no protection under the law here! I remember a lot of teen pregnancies, resulting in marriage one way to escape bad families. Funny to watch, jobs were plentiful and U could afford to live on your own at a young age. More potential era of opportunity and hope, unlike now.

With this one, it seems they only got through the middle of 1966, and left it at that. Still and all, they managed to touch on many of the "signs of the times" through a one hour TV show.

    In the USA, I knew some young married couples (early 80's) who rented apartments in an old house like this. People did this with old houses with few bathrooms and many "living rooms". They had two upstairs rooms run together with a doorway, a small stove, fridge, sink and cabinets in a corner. There was a sofa-bed in the "living" area, lamps on some tables and a few chairs. Shared hallway bathroom with strict rules for cleaning up after using. Cheap, but better maintained than for this time.

    Great TV show / series. The plight of the "immigrants" was most moving. But as stated elsewhere here, many working class people (regardless of ethinicity) would have lived in places like what they had; some possibly without indoor flushing toilets (having to use the older outside ones). The thing though is that many new immigrants wouldn't have known (at least at first) what kind of rent rates could get good flats; so they maybe be overcharged/taken advantage of; etc.

      ***** Finally someone gets my point! If it wasn't for Europeans, Blacks wouldn't be in Europe or US, last time I checked blacks didn't really have a say in the matter.

      I don't think there was a suburb culture here in Western Europe during the 1960s. That's more the 1980s and 1990s.

    Now and for a while many private rental landlords say 'no benefits', and the council accommodation you can get is falling apart, mouldly, cracks everywhere, toxic water. So what the Caribbeans experienced in that way, the poor are experiencing now. My Jamaican grand-dad and that side of the family didn't mention about crap flats or anything, but my mother did say that she was often called a 'gollywog' in school in the 60s. Such a weird slur, i think that was like a blackface doll or cartoon or something. My mum literally beat the boy up who kept calling her that, punched him repeatedly in the face, he never called her names again, and she barely got in trouble for it, because in the 60s teachers would tell kids to sort it out themselves i think, as they do now. I grew up in the 90s, and in the 90s the teachers would actually try to stop bullying.

    The electrical issues in this for the black tenants were clearly invented/contrived for the show, the only way a cooker would blow fuses inconsistently only when too many rings were turned on would be if it was wired onto too light a current of fuse/breaker, something pretty obvious to anyone with any clue, & wouldn't also trip the lights even so without a fault that would also require a fuse box/consumer unit to detect the type of fault required & trip till at least 20 years later. Blow the specific cooker fuse yes, put the lights out without having to call the electricity board to replace *their* main fuse NO.
    Trying to paint it as if only black people suffered this sort of thing is also false, if one of the teenage girls had also been pregnant without being married they'd have faced *at least* as much in the way of problems.

    This is all so unrealistic. I grew up in the sixties in London, and we were poor. My father was a primary school teacher with three children. We didn‘t have any of these gadgets. The walls weren‘t painted in all these colours. Everyone worked hard. My mother had to find a job because my father couldn’t feed a family and pay the mortgage from a teacher‘s salary. Why is my memory of the sixties in London so different from this?

      It was explained at the end of the 1940s video. As they were following their family's experience, their family relocated to the suburbs. Pretty common thing, actually!
