Hattie McDaniels was one of my favorite people on Gone with the Wind. The first time I watched the movie I thought how spoiled Scarlet O'Hara was. Hattie McDaniels was a breath of fresh air.
She is the best and should never have been treated the way she was. Hugs 🤗 and love ❤️ to you Hatti forever. Your laugh is a jewel in my eyes and you will always be beautiful. 👍
I hold her as an example of facing down hatred and racism with substance and style, as well as talent and dignity. I hope she is never forgotten!!! Life is hard for everybody, but to pile disgusting racism on top of an entire world family is beyond stupid. When will people learn??? My mom was a mixed race woman who had to hide it all her life. We didn't find out until after she died that she was part native American and creole/french/black/southern Louisiana mix. I'm proud of that legacy, how rich and vibrant to feel those ancestors in my heart!
God bless Miss Hattie, she was amazing. I've loved her work since I was a kid. No matter what she went through she was still so nice and always had a smile on her face.
Banded from everything while you're alive. But, when you die, "they love you." America is a real trip. And now days the hate is rearing it's ugly head again!! Thank you Ms. McDaniels! ❤❤

Her life and struggles against bigotry, prejudice, segragation, and sterotypes had real purpose. Her success is a testimony to her whole race and humanity at large. Just look at these comments and a majority of us would have been honored to share any space with her and to have a moment in her presence. + May her memory be Eternal+

To be exceptional under unbearable circumstances. To do so well that they had no choice but to give her an Oscar Award when they could easily have looked the other way, the times allowed.
She was born in Wichita, Kansas, and has been celebrated for her career and the challenges she faced. They are planning a memorial to be placed at the site of her home where she was born, (the house is long gone), just a few blocks from downtown Wichita. I think it will be up soon. Also, I believe Clark Gable was enraged that she was not going to be allowed in the theater for the premiere of GWTW, and was responsible for getting her inside after he threatened to not go in. She was definitely a talented woman, and a credit to her race, and all humanity. We remember you, High Hatted Hattie! RIP, dear soul. ❤️🙏
The more she gained fame, the more of a target she became for haters, she kept her dignity while others criticized and blamed. I wish that people could look at what we are without judgement....
@@threeballedtomcat9380 I really like your name!! It reminds me of a ginormous male cat we rescued out of a overrun creek in a rainstorm. He was a tiny kitten when we pulled him from the water, and unfortunately, the only survivor of the litter when the flash flood hit. We soon found out he was part dinosaur and grew to be about 25 pounds without being overweight, he was just a gigantic baby who yowled for attention constantly and always tried to get into the refrigerator and lay with his feet against the front door to keep us from leaving the house...he drove us nuts. I miss him to this day🐱🥰
@@christineparis5607 I had a Grey Tabby I named Ezra and like your cat, he was a MONSTER ( 24 Lbs ) and actually had 3 testicles......He lived to be about 17 YO (this was in the 1980s) . That is where I got my nick..... Thanks for the comment, it brought a BIG smile to my tired and wrinkled face ! Best of wishes to you always.
@@threeballedtomcat9380 Our cats must have been related! Ours was in the 80s/90s as well. We always have cats and dogs now. All rescued. I lost my chow/wolf mix after 18 perfect years, right at the start of the pandemic, I thought I was going to die, I missed her so much...but she had one last gift for me. I was in very bad health, and overweight, pre diabetic, high blood pressure and cholesterol, fat, and then grieving and stuck at home without friends to help...I stopped eating crap, and started walking every day. I adopted an injured Australian shepherd from a drug addict who couldn't afford the treatment she needed, then I began to work in the yard. One day, I started running, and I couldn't stop. I just wanted to run myself into oblivion, I was so miserable, but weight came off, like, a hundred pounds (I still can't believe I got so fat!), and running helped me not grieve, I don't know why, so I just kept on, everytime I got sad, I'd go run. I started eating food that helped, not crap, and I started feeling better. It took over a year, but when I went for a checkup, all the alarms went off on their computer because I'd lost a hundred pounds! They thought I had cancer! I was 61, so they didn't believe that I was running. I was able to stop five medications because I no longer had weight related illnesses. That helped too. I stopped taking opiates since I wasn't in as much pain. That was hard, because I'd been on them for ten years! I could have been Keith Richard's little sister, there was no drug I hadn't tried in ten years of pain clinics! I know all about them! You name it, I probably took too much of it. Getting off them was a cold turkey, but nothing hurt as much as losing my dog so I didn't care....she was somehow my talisman for everything positive happening to me. In three years I've been running 6 to 8 miles a day, and I'm old! I feel better now than I did in my 30s and 40s. If I could do it, I'm convinced anyone can. I am the biggest complainer, but I never give up. I am working on starting a charity for seniors who have difficult issues paying vet bills, often because they are on a small, fixed income. Their pets are often old as well, and need a lot of medical support, special foods, drugs, etc., that puts a huge drain on an often single persons ability to get the best care. I want to change that! Seniors should be able to not worry about their pets getting decent care. I'm working on starting a non profit and actually making a difference before I get too old. My parents started a charity after they retired, called the black hats, and I believe it is still going to this day. If they did it, I know I can...I'm writing a book I want to use for extra income to start things rolling. People like you are always an inspiration to me. People that love their animal companions and understand the bond...never, ever give up, no matter what, you make a difference, even when you don't know it. Believe it.

Trump has always loved and helped the black community...Give up the CNN rhetoric and lies...Educate yourself, so you can free yourself from that demon...
Her character was the moral compass in GWTW. The scene when she is walking up the stairs with Melanie Wilkes after Scarlet's daughter is killed....I defy anyone to get through that without a tear.
@@leilavrhel8672 It was no secret that Olivia had expected to get the gong, for her role in GWTW & deservedly so. But was pipped at the post by Hattie....
If they ever make a motion picture about her life, I believe Octavia Spencer would be an absolute shoo-in to play her. Viola Davis would also get my support on this
Its sad that they lost the Oscar because it would inspire others but just as sad she didn't get some respect from the black community because of the roles she played because it was better than nothing because she paved the way for others
We all, face bigotry in one way or another. I'd rather remember her talent as a genius comedic actress. Not about the ignorance that may have followed her.
I don't know if this is true, but apparently she and Clark Gable were good friends, so why didn't he insist that she be allowed to sit at the table with the other cast members?
Unsaid in this video, Hattie McDaniel was bedeviled by the NAACP, who did all they could to get her out of movies, to destroy her. However, in The South, she's still beloved for her great talent and the characters she played. Concerning the NAACP & Web DuBois, Booker T. Washington, the black founder of the Tuskeegee Institute, and also where George Washington Carver taught Agriculture, commented commented concerning others race hustling. "There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs." Oddly, they did all they could however, to try and end Hattie McDaniel's career.
Rest In Peace Hattie McDaniel.

She was such a good actor. You can say she started the hope of all people of color to be able to make it big in Hollywood
An amazing lady and a superb actress. It seems to me that Gable & Leigh might have insisted she sat with them at the awards.
She was the only character in Gone With the Wind that I truly liked viewing. She was fun and sassy. 🎉
What an inspiration ❤️ RIP Hattie 🌹
My heart is always heavy when I see her films - strong and kind woman who has been done dirty at most corners

Loved Hattie’s style and pragmatism in the face of injustice!
In her film roles she never convinced me as an actress.
She was to real. Like people I've known in life.
A credit to the world.
She had to much talent for the roles she was given and it’s one of the main reasons I don’t respect Hollywood that much
