This is the most horrible time in my city of Mobile, Al. I'm the child that found Michael in the tree that day and my father and my Uncle cut him down and his body will forever be in my mind of what they done to this young King. I still remember talking to him that day as he was going to the store and he telling me that we was going to the park to shoot ball. My mother was his mother's nurse until she passed. If you want to know what the book don't talk about and how the black community was like doing this time, reach out and thank you for telling this King's story
I am so very sorry you had to see your young friend hanging like that. 😮😢 I'm sure that was hard for your father and uncle, too. Poor Michael to have to lose his precious life like that and so young. Just the thought that his parents never got what was granted to them after loosing their boy is so gut wrenching 💔! I'm praying for you brother because I know that even now it still hurts you so much. Of course it will always be with you. I'm so happy that the Lord will settle all scores and bring recompense for all things. Love you brother. ❤
My name is Gerald Donald in march of 1981 my mother Glaydys Donald started receiving calls about her eldest son his name Is Michael Donald now Michael is stationed in Korea in the army my mom broke down thinking it was my brother Michael we had no way of getting hold of him except when he called we called the Red Cross the army recruiting team nobody could give us any information untill about 9pm that night My Brother Michael called from Korea letting my mom know it’s not him what a relief but the fact remains in 1981 A young black man is hung and he could be related to my family because My family is from Brandon Mississippi but moved to Omaha Nebraska in 1965 long story short I hope nothing like this ever happens again
Young lady you did an amazing job with this video!! Your information is accurate and on point!! Keep up the good work, and I will be looking for more great content from you!! I just subscribed!!
I was about 5 yrs of age. I've never heard this story. Them evildoers were straight evil, vile, and cruel. What they did to Michael Donald were so inhumane. No words can describe what he went through. Rest peacefully to young man. Thank you for covering Michael Donald's story. You did an amazing job. New subscriber
Although we have seen plenty of movies showcasing the hardships we’ve endured…I think dis story would Be a fire azz movie 🤣 hear me out yall, besides how the story mirrors Emmit Till , I think it would resonate with the younger generation kuz it happened in the 80’s which wasn’t that long ago. Nowadays the younger generation’s parents are 80’s babies . I’m 37 with an 18 and 15 year old daughter. I always taught them to be fair, respectful and kind to EVERYBODY but at the same time to never forget how America has never been fair, respectful and kind to US!!! I have never heard of anybody suing the KKK and ACTUALLY winning so for that reason alone THE MOVIE WOULD BE FUGGIN FIRE!!!!! Excellent video shawtyyyyy!!! 🤣🤣🗣️🗣️🙌🏿🙌🏿👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
You have a soothing voice and did a good job representing the young man in the story , it’s unfortunate that our history , the most free Nation on earth ( Law Wise) has some negative things in its back ground and that violence was ever perpetrated against the innocent. Thanks for your great research and story telling ability
I was with my family Saturday night. My cousin and other kids were friends with him coming up. Another kid was supposed to be with him but his mother told him he couldn’t go and after they found out what happened to him while going to the store. He came back to his mom and thanked her for saving his life
My Lord, that is something! 😮 I'm sure you all will NEVER forget, especially that boy who wasn't able to go with him, and the other boy who found him hanging in the tree. 😢❤ You all are in my prayers. 🙏🏾
Great work. Such a kind and considerate story bringing out an important historical milestone. A horrific loss of life... But Victory for All People of Color. This Human Being Michael Donald died for the Sins of those who believe they are above any or all People of Color. Mrs. Donald is my Hero. Thank You for sharing. You are in my thoughts and so my prayers. I believe in your direction & success that will affect the future with a healthy, safe, equitable & humanistic world for the children of our children and their children... (Amen in my culture) "Us jo oh'Oh el" - And it is Very good -
I was 12 years old at that time, and I was growing up in a suburb just outside of Philadelphia, PA( Philly, PA), and i will never forget being spit on, and just minding my business, and did not even noticed the guy passing me by , and as we was crossing paths i felt a glob of spit hit face , and a conflict occurred, but still in a Nothern Union State, and 2 minutes outside of a major metropolitan.
That same thing happened to me as a teenage girl in the late 1990s. This was in Portland Oregon. The N word was used all the time and I heard it quite a bit. I recall walking home from work and a van fun of young modern Hippies passed by me. As they did, they spat upon me while I pretended that nothing had happened. I just kept on walking and they kept on driving. I will never forget that one. It was always my understanding that Hippies were cool with everyone. I guess not!
22:14 OPEN Casket funeral... that was a repeat of 1955 of EMIT TILL.... his mother had the same .. to show the world what the white folks had done to her son.........
Smh it sounded too good to be true that she would actually be paid said amount. I have so many questions. Like... why were BOTH culprits not sentenced to deletion?
That nightmare story from Beulah Mae is exactly that a story. She never had that nightmare. It sounds good for the book, but it never happened. If it had happened, her knowing that her son left to go get a pack of cigarettes and never came back, and then her seeing the story on the news she would have instantly thought of her son. But her son never crossed her mind. That was just a story to spice up the book. Another part of this story is inaccurate, the story of the Cross lighting on the County's steps and that the clan did that to get attention on that while they allegedly killed him. The klan had no idea that he was going to be going to the 7-Eleven at that time. You know when people write books they always over exaggerate to make the story more spicy.
I have had many dreams of truth things, and yet my mind does not always put everything together or recall things until AFTER it happens! Sometimes way after. Your reasoning for why you want her account to be untrue is ridiculous and pathetic 🙄. As for them burning 🔥 the cross, the klan did the crap all the time and it was most definitely a distraction. I'd believe the mother over your hateful gaslighting arse any day. It's obvious that you and the tree people who like your comment LOVE the klan. 😂
Embellishments or not it's irrelevant bc it's not just about the book but ur small racist mind would focus on such opposed to the actual fact that a person was murdered❗ U have no way of knowing what his mother dreamt or felt and the klan didn't need to know that he was going; they rode around and eff'd with ppl they encountered ❗ so go away with the lame distractions

My goodness what a horrific thing to witness. I hope his mother left this world a bit a peace knowing she fought so hard for her son to get justice.
How incredibly sad. The fear & full body terror he went through 🥺. Very well researched. This video was very well done.🙏🏼

And they even still believe they can get Salvation and be Grafted in , they still actually believe the Bible is for them and they are the Chosen.

I really appreciate your commentary on this history. 🙏
I remember this I was ten years old . It was a big national story back then and there has been documentaries on this story .
I remember this , i was in high school reading about this in JET magazine while in the school library.
I was with my family Saturday night. My cousin and other kids were friends with him coming up. Another kid was supposed to be with him but his mother told him he couldn’t go and after they found out what happened to him while going to the store.

Thank you, young lady

I lived on that’s same street it was Herndon Ave before it became Micheal Donold St

I was 12 years old at that time, and I was growing up in a suburb just outside of Philadelphia, PA( Philly, PA), and i will never forget being spit on, and just minding my business, and did not even noticed the guy passing me by , and as we was crossing paths i felt a glob of spit hit face , and a conflict occurred, but still in a Nothern Union State, and 2 minutes outside of a major metropolitan.
I'm so sorry that happened to you 😢

Lynchings may be more community than one thinks. The more things change the more things stay the same. RIP.
The action that i have spoken of happened in that same year in October of 1981 , and again in a Northern State outside of a major metropolitan
Smh it sounded too good to be true that she would actually be paid said amount. I have so many questions. Like... why were BOTH culprits not sentenced to deletion?
0:55 know why?? they DID IT and HID IT

What they don’t realize is the one’s they hated,that behavior was within their organization and they didn’t even know it.
I was in the job corps in Kentucky an people asked how the klan killed a man in1981 in your hom🎉e town America has allowed this hate from day 1
America has honestly ENCOURAGED it
@@QueenBthatsMe777 you sho right
SW-- Thanks for invoking more awareness and opening the collective mind of us all. We need the truth and plenty of healing.
Amen 🙏🏾 😢❤
How could adults do that to a child? What civilized people could do this to other people?
