DALLAS TX , 1983
This captivating documentary segment delves into the world of pimping in the United States during the Early 80s era. This thought-provoking film showcases exclusive interviews with the notorious American pimp, "HAROLD," and his hoes, Alice, Lori, and Karen. It not only provides an in-depth exploration of the pimping lifestyle but also sheds light on how the lifestyles of pimps and street walkers intertwine. Furthermore, this compelling film highlights the inherent dangers of pimping, as tragically demonstrated by the murder of “ Alice Franklin” , one of Harold’s Streetwalkers , towards the end of the same year.

IT'S so fucked up that woman dedicated her life to Harold and gave him $ & her soul the day moment she got killed in the line of duty bro says he doesn't have time are want the responsibilities of raising her son, that's some 🥶 shit jack😢
Harold ain't sh!t.
I think its reasonable, he knew he wasnt shit
@bella24717 you're right. He knew he didn't need to try to raise that child.
Well he is a pimp. That’s about what I’d expect out of him.
That’s sad but anyway fellas, if you’re going to pimp, make sure it’s strictly white women. You only need two, and you can make $500k in a year, and do something else.
Being a Pimp is one of the most dishonorable and unmanly ways to make money.
Agreed, it's plain evil inspired wickedness.
Totally agree.
Also, Dilla is great

A pimp is called a different name today. Sex Trafficker.
Very true!!!
Very true selling girls hate them.
Facts
Wrong
Lol
No what’s really sad is all the prostitutes that are on the unidentified list of murders in the 80s. Ran away from home and got killed prostituting and to this day their family doesn’t know they’re gone. 😢
Not just 80s… long before and long after.. there’s still red light districts everywhere. In Europe many places prostitution is legalized. Which makes it a regulated industry with safety checks and all. I don’t think anything is wrong with the oldest profession out there but it’s how our society looks at it. I mean it says a lot about a country that tries to control females anatomy but can’t fund proper healthcare or child care or education or anything else for that matter. I definitely don’t have high hopes for future.
never ending cycle 🔄
They ran away from home for a reason usually cuz they were being abused at home.
Agree 😢😢
its not the oldest profession, agriculture is the oldest profession and calling it so doesnt make it right. you harbouring spirits in you and before you say you dont believe in god, it came from the bible being call the oldest profession, nowhere else@@miss0petersburg
My friend's dad was a cop and once I asked him which type of criminals were the biggest scumbags. Without hesitation he said pimps.
He shoulda said cops.
Cops are the biggest scumbags around too.
Why?
They have the power to be
He should of said dirty cops
Really? Not pedos?
@@LamarPutney that was your mom's answer
@@BrothaJohn-br2hd - no difference.
Turnover!! That's what he called her death. Turnover. Child with no parents and a woman dead. Shows the pure callousness of Harold.
God gonna get him
And what about the other girl who said she'd still do it? You blaming the wrong one. Her family is the callous ones.
How is Harold the pimp any different than any other CEO in business?
Harold was pretty cold for sure but those girls knew what they were getting . They knew who and what Harold was and they liked him. Women often like the worst sorts of men and they often pay a huge price for that. He described her death as "Turnover" because to him that is all it was. He didn't care about anything other than his inconvenience having to get another girl to fill the void.
@@jdayala-wright8875 can’t think of a difference between trashy street business and professional business?
"If it wasn't for Harold, I wouldn't be free from jail". Thanks to Harold, you'll be back there in no time.
Shout out to Harold! That's Big Harold not the lit one 💪🏾 💯😁😅
Let this be a reminder of how sexual abuse directly affects the victim's self-worth, views on sex/intimacy, the standards they hold their partners to... It affects every facet of their lives forever & should be punished accordingly.
Agreed. There is likely a cycle of generational poverty and abuse. My own mother was a victim of child molestation. She wound up with my dad who was a domestic abuser. She had more resources than these women and wound up legally married eventually but it affected her children. I often think how lucky my mom was but still unlucky because it took her 25 years to leave my dad. It absolutely did color her whole life and self worth.
Also, how it affects males. It's obvious that men who are able to be a "pimp" had some kind of traumatic childhood themselves. It's not normal to be able to silence emotions when something happens to someone, or to willingly put them into harms way. It's not normal to be around children and put their mother's in the position to be harmed. Definitely not normal to see a person's death as "turnover" smh. I guess the old saying is true "hurt people, hurt people. "
It's not just sexual abuse. A child that is emotionally abused also has no self-trust, self-love and self-worth. A Hamburg study underlines that 83% of the prostitutes surveyed had trauma experiences in early childhood, of which 48% were cases of sexual abuse.
Sexual abuse is horrific but not the only or main factor. Just like physical abuse, it's the message of not being worthy of respect, care and love that does the most damage.
@@carmenl163 full circle I attracted a pimp because of my own trauma at the hands of my father and I was not sexually abused. I was emotionally and psychologically abused and developed PTSD.
@@chelseamiracle128 It sounds like you developed Complex PTSD, which is the deepest wound one can get from child abuse. I'm so sorry to hear that.
My heart just breaks for those kids. Baby boy lost his mother probably went into foster care. I hope he was placed with a loving family and he turned out fine.
me too but the odds were stacked well against him.
Such a beautiful little boy, I hope he was properly looked after and loved with a good family, this is so sad.😪
The sad truth is he was probably sent to foster family's that were in it for a check. Then went the group home to juvie to prison pipeline.
there’s a 50/50 chance that he ended up in good hands.
I watch a lot of documentaries and a lot of them are sad but this one is really gut wrenching! This one will stick with me! That sweet beautiful boy loosing his mom and being left in the care of this pimp and prostitutes. It’s one of the most heart breaking things I’ve ever seen!
Was I the only one who heard that woman say she was raped by her Father? That alone would send a person into the streets. So sad she had no chance from the start.
Trauma is the foundation for self perpetuating trauma.
Straight into the fire when she met Harold.! 😮
It's terrible that her father did that but if you're strong, have support, but understand what's right and wrong, there's NOTHING that should send anyone to a life like this or any other illegal activity. " And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil." 🙈 🙉 🙊
@@PabloHernandez-fm3nn Maybe at first she was of good character bud..🤷 But then unfortunately for her she met a predator called Harold who groomed her and gave her false love and support with ulterior motives..😳
@@PabloHernandez-fm3nn victim blaming. If she was strong enough lol this comment reminds me there is evil in the world hiding behind scripture. Isn’t god the only one who is supposed to judge if you’re going by those standards?
My siblings and I were raised in the game. We all had different moms, except for my little sisters, those two have the same mom. My dad had custody of all his kids though. My mom was married to my dad, she was in the game long before she met him. They met in the early 70s when my mom was locked up in a detention center where my dad was a janitor. Some years after she left my dad she was hooked up with some other pimp and one of his girls murdered his baby's mom and six months later she murdered my mom. It was February 1987. I was 10, my mom was 29. I'm 47 now and I really don't remember her anymore. I can remember parts of situations but not her. I don't remember a time that I lived with her. My dad was the type that let his girls leave but they couldn't take his kids. My mom was lost in addiction and didn't visit much. My little brother's mom visited more often and she gave me some pictures of my mom. I was a daddy's girl, I loved him dearly. My oldest and youngest brothers never did anything with their lives, but the rest of us all went to college and/or served in the military. We ran circus circus unsupervised as kids lol. It was a different time. I had a great childhood. It's not always all bad.
Thank you. We need to hear from people with experience. My godfather was a pimp and he did for me than any other adult. He was a gentleman and a scholar. He spoke five languages and pimped on an international level. All the women wanted to be with him and the men wanted to learn from him. I was blessed to have him in my life.
I'm so sorry to hear you lost your mom like that.
@miapdx503 are you in Portland? Just a guess based off your user name. I moved from there to Phoenix 2.5 years ago. Folks be wilding out in the streets and didn't want my son caught up in it.
I was sharing my experience growing up cause everyone's talking about what horrible lives the kids must have. I definitely had my share of troubles, but I have happy memories of my childhood. My stepmother was a square, and after she married my dad she didn't allow us to be exposed to too much. But the game was different back then and it wasn't what alot of people thought it was.
@arfriedman4577 thank you. I'm sad for her since she never really had a chance to live but I do it for her and I think that she would be proud. I loved her, even if no one else did.

I remember HBO's 'Pimps Up, Hoes Down. and 'Hookers at the Point'. I don't remember this one at all. Thanks for posting.
I love those documentaries! I still watch them here on TH-cam from time to time.
I remember “ Pimps Up, Hoes Down”
I have a copy of Pimps Up Hoes Down. My dad was a pimp in Seattle, Portland, and Vegas when I was growing up. He kept marrying his hoes though 😂
Classic 😂🙌🏽 “the cotton club” 💯💯
Yep I remember it too. Can't imagine why they would want to be a slave
Sad how their life choices stem from family trauma 😔

Yup
The little girl wanting ice -cream is 40 years older now. I hope she is okay, can't imagine what the rest of her childhood was like. Such a shame.
It made me sick when her Mother said she would be okay with her child being a prostitute when she grew up. Poor baby.
I literally wondered the same thing...
Beyond sad
@@magnus1001 right. I was so relieved to see that she had a boy. But still, she was smoking cigarettes while pregnant and probably rank liquor too. I hope he turned out okay, but something tells me with her as his mother (because I am sure the pimp "father" abandoned them both) he had a rough childhood. If he is still alive, he is just turned 40-years-old last year.
She grew up thinking that was all normal.
What amazes me is the young lady said her father (rapped) her and I see NO COMMENTS about how most of the women have truma that lead them to seek this type of love. Thats why she said " the pimp can't force you". That's true. She chose because he provides what she misses and loves the thrill.
nope that’s just her. no trauma is needed.
💯💯💯💯
I see the same thing in these plural marriages ..
They want to make anti-Blk comments, like it's the pimp's fault that her dad made her feel worthless. It's like Wuornos; what else was she going to do?
Did u close ur eyes
1983. HIV had no cure and a two year life span.

I most certain some of them was hiv positive.just because they're not talking about doesn't mean a thing.
They don't understand it hurts being raised this way. It's confusing, shameful. I'm almost 30 and still don't understand it. If you think you'll raise a kid in this environment and they'll be fine your nuts. My parents didn't even sell herself, my father sold women and I knew about it openly. So even though my mom wasn't sold it bothered me knowing what he did. It makes me sick
Children know , see and understand alot more than ppl give credit for ...esp those first 8 yrs
Whoa that's awful! You sound intelligent & insightful and I hope you're getting help with any residual damage. That would make me sick too.

When this was filmed I was in nursing school for my master’s degree. I am grateful for my good family and good education
I worked in mental health when I was in the military. My patients were civilian family members. The most messed up people were teachers and nurses (spouses) who thought the world could never happen to them.

Listening to these girls talking then is sadly no different than listening to them talking now on documentaries.
None of them speak ghetto Ebonics not even the pimp
He was supposed to help that woman not get killed that’s what they say a pimp is for … he failed his job as to what he was supposed to do and I bet he didn’t have a penny for her funeral
That’s what I was thinking. Isn’t that the allure of a pimp for these ladies, so they will be protected.
That's what I thought. I thought they stayed close while they did their thing. He didn't do shit. What am I missing?🤷🏿
Pimps aren't for protection. They only collect money. If the woman wants to be with the pimp they have to pay him.

Interesting how this is a form of slavery that is glorified
Where is being a prostitute glorified?
Not slaves they can go if they want. Its just rules same as a relationship unless the dude a simp and let her do what she wants. You wonder why a lot of women are single and can’t keep a man . They can’t follow the instructions of the man we lead you follow. We not equal.
It's not slavery if its by choice~not all pimps are "bad" or how the media portrays them. You can't just generalize a culture you probably know nothing about, just saying. It's not by force, it's all by choice. For everyone involved. And also not all pimps are abusive, "guerilla" pimps and not all hos are drug addicted, weak minded.
You are ignorant as hell. How is it slavery when they got a choice. 🙄

I remember watching this documentary when it first aired on HBO many years ago. Thank you for uploading this.
I'm from South Dallas. And I was 20 years old, living in Dallas at the time of this documentary. But I'd left Dallas in 1985, moving to Boston; New York City; Stockholm, Sweden and finally, Copenhagen, Denmark; which is where I'm currently living. I got to say that there is something fundamentally wrong with this union. And I'm not even talking about the prostitution in itself. It's just this imprisonment of perpetual deception, under the guise of "being a family." It's really sick! And what makes it really interesting is that the pimp doesn't seem to be so overtly abusive with his stable, as an average pimp is expected to be. Now, I don't know if say that it's better, or it's creepy. By the way, prostitution is perfectly legal in Denmark. Prostitutes even pay taxes. But pimps are illegal. I think that's fair and reasonable, being that I deem that prostitution is one of the plethora of results of sexism, to begin with. I wonder whatever became of everyone in this documentary. The children, the sex workers and the pimp. I hope that wherever they are, they are all doing good and are happy., leaving that life behind. I'd like to think so anyway.
I used to get mad when people would say men should stay in their daughters lives.
I lost my father at 3. I am perpetually at a disadvantage. There is an aspect of sense of self that comes from having a father figure.
It is sooooo easy to get caught up in this if the gap in you is big enough.
That said many many women are being pimped in their marriages thinking they are safe but they are essentially building everything for the "family" at her own expense. Soon as the kids grow up the man is gone.
Staying with a guy building up a business etc then you get divorced.
What I am saying it its not always so obvious. It's everywhere though. Look at Jeff Bezos.... that woman gave up time. Billions can never buy time.
The cruelty is the time lost. It can never be recovered.
You sound like you come out of a place of deep sadness, jealousy, and a bit of bitterness. These so-called women that are losing out on life by spending years raising their own children. It’s their own family. What more do you expect out of life?. My father walked out of my mother while she was pregnant with me. I grew up being abused by a stepfather, and I don’t have a family of my own, but I have no bitterness towards those who do. And to bring up the woman that is with Bezos is out of left field. The woman is living off of a multimillionaire, and you somehow try to make her look like a victim.
@@doe729 that's your perception. I look in horror at some of the marriages. Maybe I touched a nerve.
A small percentage of women actually get the love, support and fulfillment from these pairings.
I know one lady who was happy when her husband died. She raised 5 kids. From the outside, her life looked perfect. Died at 88. She told me herself, her husband was a bastard and she is glad he died.
So it's not jealousy. Once my eyes opened up I watch the married folks a bit closer. Probably 1 in 20 are happy.
I would kill someone if I spent 25 years of my best life to be left at 53 to pick up my life all over again.
Yes I would take the money but it can't give .e back time. What if she died the next day? She would have died a billionaire with a broken heart.
You people will sacrifice your whole beings for money
@@doe729, on the contrary, nothing could be further from the truth than your assessment of me being "sad, jealous and bitter." Can't even imagine how on earth you'd make such an extremely, fallacious conclusion. I'm not sure what defines a "perfect life." The definition can be subjective. But I think one example of a happy life is when one can accept life on life's terms. That's just one of many examples. As for my childhood, in spite of my father dying when I was 3 years old, I was lucky and blessed to grow up in a loving and nurturing family, starting with my beloved mother. I grew up around drugs, sex workers and the hustling culture, in general. I'm from South Dallas, in that area of Bexar Street. I've had many friends who were killed in that neighborhood. In some cases, when I'd hear gunshots, I knew who the gunshots were for. I've had friends of mine, who'd killed other friends of mine. Be that as it may, for these ladies and their children, there' this thing called "empathy." And that's what I feel for these ladies and their children. I've seen first hand what effects this have on children, when they're no longer children, becoming adults. I think if I had to make a choice, to either trust my own experience, or your gross misinterpretation of me being "sad, jealous and bitter", I think I'll go with my own experience and what I'd witnessed down through life. Not here to make any judgement. Just I wish the best for those ladies and their children. That's all that matters to me. End of discussion.
@@triggabun you know what? I'm 60 years old. And while I've lived with a few ladies down through the years, in common law marriage, I've never actually been married. And the older I get, the more I feel that this institution of marriage is highly overrated. I've also discerned that we are systematically forced to marry, just to avoid legal complications and to conform with our chosen religion, if one is religious. But that what you were saying about the 88 year old lady is real. I know it's real! Because of patriarchy, women were socially/systematically coerced to marry. Especially back in the day.

Harold was cold blooded asf
I remember back then and watching this I actually thought Harold was not bad compared to some, for one they had their own cars, even when she handed the money to him in the car and drove off I thought it unusual, that’s a form of freedom they had and the two girls going out to work without Harold but what surprised me most was the baby shower, those girls made fun of him looking at the photo album and he took it well , looking after the children, that was surprising, back then they would have seen that as a total hindrance, letting them have their kids and pregnant etc believe me, Harold was horrible but he wasn’t mean to them, you could see that

I understand, it was very depressing to watch
Dont ever leave the country you wouldn't wanna see wat goes on around the world
It should
This is real life , not no Hollywood movie . Grow up.
women are a lot less complicated than society made them look like. Its easy to get they mind, and you don't need to drug, slap or force them to do anything. They'll simply do whatever you want if they respect you. Alice was raped by her own father and found some type of love in Harold. Notice how she talks about him cracking jokes. She really feels something for him.
If any of you have daughters, just talk to them, listen and show that you care about them and they'll be fine.
Am I tripping or was she playing Pac-Man with the newborn in her arms crying with his head dangling??
I was looking for this comment . That tripped me out. I’m not judging anyone’s parenting but he was either hungry or tired. That’s normally what they cry for at that stage. Imo I don’t think she was mentally mature enough to handle motherhood. Over there playing games instead of tending to her baby…
And shawty sure was smoking a cig while pregnant 🤦🏾♀️
I had a pimp and I left him. 6 years later he still stalks me. I'm married now... he crossed State lines clear across the Country to get to me.. he is a PSYCHO!
Don’t share this you wouldn’t want your husband to find out about your past
@@Jewel_Screaming_Chango8387 He knows already smh lol 😆 😂 🤣... I don't keep secrets
i was so sad when she died & the baby was on the desk while harold was talking
That's the part that took me aback. Just sitting there on that desk, waiting to be pawned off 😢
@@bosslady1188 ain't that terrible
@@bosslady1188 probably saved his life
None of these women like what they do. It's bc they don't see any other ways out and no choices.
Some dont have the drive to leave and be on their own.
you don’t know that you’re just a beta male. you can’t understand how a man could get women to submit to them.
I HATE watching stuff like this. It was erie how she'd he looked at the camera, surely knowing she was doomed, having no desire to do anything else in life. Harold allowed their independence, because he wanted to do very little, besides collect the money. He could have at least made sure they were strapped. Judging by the comments, no one else cried but me. That poor woman had a f-up beginning and an end. I can't imagine the life her son had, if her aunt didn't take him. She'd hoped he would go to college, and make something of himself. I pray that he did.
She was killed on my 3rd birthday! 10/9/83! 😢
It's horrible, and I've never understood why pimping is so glorified. It's the lowest profession a man could have. But I always try to consider people's past that make them who they are now and obviously everyone involved in this documentary had a very rough beginning. I can't comprehend the amount of psychological damage being raped by your own father would have on you. And men prey on these vulnerable women knowing the hell they went through and are praised for it. It's too sad to even think about.
@soft_serve_666 who the heck glorifies pimping-----in real life? In 2024?????
@@kmsleyang1980I was calculating my age too watching this 😞
@@soft_serve_666Even as messed up as American popular culture now is, I did not know pimping was glorified in any way. I have seen a couple of former-pimp interviews and was surprised they dared to show their faces. I was cringing for this guy talking about his lowly behavior so matter of factly in the 80s. You detect an undertone of resignation and acceptance by society as a whole yeah, deeply disturbing. A man who lives off of a woman who trades her very precious self is a male, undeniable, but not a man. Don’t tell me about childhood abuse etc etc, I know a thing or two about that. It’s one thing for the people who do it, it’s another for the ones who live off of others doing this and acting like you’re a benefactor of some sort. Pfft!
You have put up some classic pieces. Love the channel. It's my new favorite. Thanks
2024. How many are still alive? Would love to see a 41 year follow up on what happened to all of them.
How many housewives from 1983 are still alive?? 🤔 silly qustion.
@WeezyJeffersonYo How is it silly Weakly? If these women are in their 20s, they should be in their 70s. So based on your dumb statement, all housewives and husband's from 1983 are dead? Boy, I hate when you high school undereducated grads, comment. Overly opinionated, severely undereducated. Now. Don't respond with anger. Think. Write a well thought out response. I am counting on you, Weakly Jefferson. You can do it.
@@WeezyJeffersonYo Undereducated. Overly opinionated. 1983. All housewives are dead. Lol
@@WeezyJeffersonYo Question. Did you get your GED? You should give it another try.
@jahgirl8647 Wow. That is good to hear. Do you know of any others still around? Harold? The kid he didn’t want?
This is one of the most depressing things I’ve ever watched.
the ones with men & children are worse
This is sad what happened to Alice 😔
☹️
I could never ever understand why get a pimp when the money rightfully belong to the women who worked for the money. All pimps are doing is getting paid and not working. 😢
Sounds like those low life guys living with their "woman". You can find him hugging her from behind in the grocery store as she pays for the food.
The women who allow their kids to be abused in the home are also to blame. They get raped at home and then run away to escape the abuse..then find themselves using their bodies to survive the streets so they can eat..and then use drugs to escape mentally. Its a vicious cycle of trauma.
i ran away from abusive mother was trafficked that night but never been high drunk in life rather die than be near a male like that ever again non-binary a-sexual 😷
Walked in to a food shop one day looked around and realized it was all just chemical's for sale not food. We all get pimped.
I get what you mean, I can hardly eat any of the ‘food’ in the stores and I don’t. I buy a few clean ingredients and cook but it’s a totally different kind of abuse.
Based post
Underrated comment 👌🏽
Did you have to sell your ass to buy it?
Pretty much in many unsuspecting aspects. We hand our taxes right over to the biggest pimp of all.
Having multiple women got on Harold nerves yet these modern men say they want a polygamist lifestyle 🙄 give me a break!!
Having 1 girl gets on a Man's nerves so it doesn't matter how many women a man has Polygny is better than monogamy.
Way better
we gon always want multiple, slow down
@@IceburgPimp😂😂 multiple diseases
Correction women can work nerves for about 20-30 mins 😂 then after that silence is key 🔑
So incredibly sad…poor women…poor kids…
This pimp got no heart , how can you you not take care of the woman son , she died hustling for his ass .
He don’t need to raise anybody’s children, matter fact children shouldn’t even be in his presence.
Because he would either trick him off when he gets older or show him “pimpin “pimpin
He was the father, she said he wanted a mixed kid.
@@linbee9461 Not the same woman.
@@linbee9461 that his child… maybe the last one was but def not that one.
I would have love an update on the people in this.
Yes me too
They’re dead expect for Harold
🪦🪦🪦🪦
Too bad the filmakers behind this doc didn't do a f/up doc. What happened to the children, the women, and Harold. Interesting doc though.
I was just born when this was filmed lol… Damn 40 years ago😳😳😳
That could be where Martin got the character from...🤔
What a miserable, seedy, sordid life. Awful.
My God.....This must be what Hell looks like.
AKA; 'murica even that far back..
Casually just smoking while pregnant
@LateshaRenee it was a different time
Can’t put it all on Harold. Did you really think he was father of the year. You’re manager at your job you work not going to take care of your kids when if you die. The other girls didn’t offer to take the kids either
The way she let that baby's head just bounce around with no support really triggered me
I was thinking the same thing 💔 no wonder he was crying, he needed to feel secure 😢💔
Reminds me of that girl chrisEan
@@Kali2Htwn again, I thought the same thing lol
Yall really expect of a lot hoes😂😂😂
I was too!!! My heart was breaking over that...
This is sad actually
Im really curious to see how this ended for all of them.
Wonder where everyone is at now in life? I wasn’t even born yet..
Her smoking at her own baby shower… priceless…19:25 “wetbacks”???! I don’t think you can use that word in 2024 lmfao!!!
I was just thinking I hadn’t heard the term wet back in a couple of decades and I’m 50 years old this year. I laughed so hard it’s definitely not PC times have really changed.
Our world is changing day by day. Ready or not.
Insane the immigrate became the native and the native became the alien wet back the immigrant 🤦🏻♀️
@@Seekyourtruth777 It's really not a big deal.
That was common to smoke while pregnant back then you could smoke in hospitals until like 91-92
THIS was the time I am told that we as a nation had stronger morals because more people were in church. How old was Eddie Long, TD Jakes, Creflo Dollar, and the host of white evangelical Christians during this time?
I was 13 and being taught at home by my Father that the black woman is God. Reading books on it and practicing The Black Principles of Ma'at. I am so thankful for my Father. I'm here, healthy, prosperous and a crime free Black family man!

U do know prostitution is the oldest profession. It was a better time, all era's had evil
@@davidjamisonnmmeto603 I would hope we all do. Hence the sarcasm in my comment.

@@Rumpleforeskin77 What you are observing is decades of neglect, spiritual mis-information and disenfranchisement. What you are viewing are women who are absolutely out of their own minds. I do recognize the sarcasm.
I felt the same as I observed the typical look of a slave master. Those in attendance at the Berlin conference of 1884. The missionaries that worked for Leopold II as he desecrated the Congo. The 80% murder suicide cases in America, who's commiting these atrocities and why!? The killings of family members for the purpose of insurance money gains! Multiple school shootings across America. Who's commiting these acts...... People who look like the image given to us of a Jesus and his family. All I can think is to say OH GOD!! HOW COULD WE HAVE BEEN SO MISLEAD?? These people are destroying us and here we are worshipping their God at their command. I am however glad to see many of our people waking up to promote positive change in our communities. It took us many years to get in and be forced into this predicament. It will not be a short time or an easy endeavor to get out of. I do however have much faith in the True Black Goddess of the universe that this too we shall endure and accomplish!!
Ubuntu! Ma'at! Ase'!🙏🏿
Boo I can almost guarantee they were talking about any time prior 1960s. I mean people really hear with their mouth and not their ears. Anything to try and blame people's lack of morals on Jesus. Last I knew we had free will. But go ahead sis
We all want to know what happened to everyone in this video.
Go ahead and crowd source the funding and do the followup documentary.
😢OH MY GOD so tragic these women's stores... what I would give for a "Where Are They Now" Documentary.
Harold was real pimpin, something these 2024 internet pimps could never be🤣
Allowing your girls to get pregnant by tricks ain’t no Pimpin. Fuck is you talking about?
Yup. No Internet back then & not as many dirty drugs either. People had a different mindset back then & weren't as lazy like people tend to be today. Harold had goals for being in the business he was in.
@@GadsdenHomie1776😂 goals
Well in the Pimp world he failed because all of his women were probably dead. OR they'll eventually would wised up and actually get child support from him. Considered he had a bunch of kids he had no assets either. So no he's a failed pimp. And for you to not recognized this means you haven't done any real business.
@@selfmadesm2068lol, you invented a whole scenario that has nothing to do with this man, or those women. With your imagination you could be a writer.. or a ho.
What a sad life
She said for sex she charges $25. $25 in 1983 = $78.57 in 2024 😮😢
She said she is 20! Oh my goodness I thought she was at least 30 😅
🚬
@@Learsiii___ idk maybe but I’ve personally been smoking since 14 and now 43 and still am regularly carded. Maybe it’s genetics 🤷🏽♀️
Is there a Part 2? Or even just a short update segment??
Beautiful children. I hope they grew ok.
Sad but I highly doubt it
Just thinking of that child as an adult now watching that scene where he's sitting on the desk & Harold making arrangements after his mother's brutal killing & knowing his dad was a random unknown to her. I hope wherever he is, that life had been kinder than that rough start.
He bought me a car but...I paid for it lol
For those that don’t know, this is the prequel to Bobby’s’ World
Dude looks like he could be Sauce Walka’s daddy/grandaddy
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Could be he said his mom was a lady of the night and showed him how to do it too
Yessssssssss 😮
😂😂😂
Yooo fa sho
Did anyone else notice the pregnant woman smoking?
Lucky it was just smoking and not shooting heroin
Yes times were different there were no warnings on cigarettes and such back then. During these years we could go buy cigarettes for our teachers and they smoked in the schools teachers lounge.
Or alcohol.
Oh my gosh! Reality!😮
He’s a smart pimp fr, not making any differences in the women and children
What part of hell did Harold come from!!!! Every jacked up, no good dude I’ve known in the 70s name is fuggin Harold!
😂😂😂😂
South Dallas lol
Any man that would use a disadvantaged abused woman is the lowest type of man out there. He did nothing to protect that woman and he could care less about those children. The only good thing is that at least he didn't sell those poor children. At least I hope not. I hope after that poor woman died that it woke a few of them up and they focused on getting their lives together, but unfortunately Harold probably made sure they didn't until they were older. The way he groomed these women and lives off their misery just sickens me. It is definitely a form of slavery, yet he would probably feel entitlled anyway. Men have done this for centuries, and it doesn't appear to be stopping. It shows you how sad things really are. Just a note, that woman's self esteem was so low that she couldn't even pick out her own clothes.
What about the men that raped or abused them in the first place?
Harold’s stable is psychologically unstable.
Damn we need a where are they now episode
Damn so she didn’t know she needed to hold the baby’s head. Sitting there playing video game with his head just flopping 🤦🏾♀️. I don’t know what I expected she couldn’t have been that bright to let someone pimp her. He was literally fighting for his life 😮😢
I thought the same thing.
Small businessman in the service industry.
Many small businesses like to say that their employees are not employees but rather "family." Cringeworthy.
Make no mistake, it is a business relationship. Employees are replaceable.
