@scifyry That's wild. True story - when I was in high school, I met a Black guy from Durham who said to me, "All y'all do in MS is pick cotton." He knew better by the end of camp, lol, but it's amazing what ignorance exists in the absence of experience and perspective.
Roosevelt refused to invite Jesse Owens to the White House after his win of four gold medals in the Berlin Olympics. He earned money by running against horses. When the media asked him why, he said that he was hungry and that his four Olympic gold medal could not put food in his belly.
AH extended him hospitality in Germany after Jesse Owens won. He was even welcome in Germany as a guest. They didn't have any problem with other peoples as long as they were in their own countries and didn't have any agenda against them. 😊

Many people do not understand that segregation was not only in the southern states. Segregation was alive and well here in the state of California. Back in the 1930s there were four types of public schools in California. There was a school for Caucasian students. There was a school for African American students. There was a school for Asian American students. There was a school for Latin American and Native American students. I believe it was in 1947 (or around that time) that California abolished school segregation.
In my hometown in Arizona the schools were segregated until 1951. I started school in 1954 and just because the schools were desegregated did not change the mindset of many of the white teachers.
That's just the way it was . No hate. It's just the way it was. This hole video is bullshit. Segregation is all over the US. It always will be. Blacks live among blacks. Chinese live am9ng Chinese. Sunset district in sf is very Chinese. Nob9dy says boo!!
What an eye-opener. I had no idea about the role that the Federal Government’s New Deal policies played in institutionalising racial inequality in property ownership and neighborhood-level segregation. I wish I had been taught this is high school, but it’s not too late to learn this history and pass it on, which I will now do. 🙏
Glad to hear it. That's how this operation goes. You'd be surprised how deep the rabbit hole goes when it comes to all the government sanctioned Jim Crow terrorism visited upon our people, yet they covered it up. All the schools teach is a paragraph or 2 about slavery, Abraham Lincoln and the emancipation speech, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King and a few other figures. The truth is far darker and scarier than any horror movie.

It wasn't just the suburbs. My son's kindergarten teacher bought a home in a previously restricted neighborhood in Oakland in 1978. She and her husband were both in the medical field at the time. She became a teacher because the school in their neighborhood had no one of color working on campus. 20 years later, she and a Japanese teacher were still the only teachers of color.

And racially discrimination against African Americans here in the U.S.A.
History can be both important and uncomfortable. We, too, live in a neighborhood that had an unsettling past. Our family home for over 60 years is located in a neighborhood that was restricted through the 1920s divisive covenant agreements. Jim Crow Laws were not just a Southern thing. There are two kinds of segregation in America: de facto and de jure. In Latin, 'de facto' means 'in fact' or 'in reality'; 'de jure' means 'in law'. De jure segregation refers to the lawful separation of people, while de facto segregation refers to the separation of groups 'naturally' as a result of racism such as in schools and neighborhoods.

This happened in cities also - New York City's "Stuyvesant Town" - a large, middle-class apartment complex in Manhattan that was specifically built to house returning WW2 Veterans. They would not rent to black veterans, or any blacks. It was however not a government project - it was funded by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company.

We had four black people in my office and all of them quit after a few years. They did not like working overtime. We were often required to work late, without breaks or lunches. We worked mandatory weekends and some holidays. It is a lot to ask of a person. They all worked slowly and could never finish their work in an 8 hour shift. Often times they did half or one third what the average worker produced in a day. I could process 25 cases compared to one of them only doing 5 in a day. We had the same experience, but I worked at a much faster pace. Eventually they all quit and wanted an easier job. Back then we were making $150,000 and had they stayed could have earned more. I am also a minority who did not graduate from college. I worked hard and was able to provide for my family. It was a choice and the ones that did not want to work hard quit and went elsewhere.

Sometimes I look back on growing up in the ‘50’s and think how innocent and safe it was and then I remember the black high school, Jones High in Orlando, and have to feel a sense of guilt that I considered that normal - there is nothing normal about it. Equality was not even considered!
@@peterbrook329 Why is this a surprise? For MOST of America's history she has been institutionally racist. She sought to keep non-whites beneath whites.
Equality was not even considered. Profound. Some Americans believe "they" are collectively behind because of "their" culture, wholly disregarding that they are behind precisely due to systemic inequities over time.
My grandfather bought a home in Detroit in the 1940’s the same neighborhood that Ford and Fisher and other auto families had lived. It was restricted, so he had his lawyer buy it and transferred the deed to him. When the subdivision found out he had to go to court to keep his house. He was threatened by neighbors, but he was not easily scared and they found out so he didn’t have problems after that.
This is utter nonsense! It's similar to someone living in India saying "If I lived in the United States, I would be a millionaire"- meanwhile, the truth is self evident. Work ethic, moral values, intelligence, and spending habits has nothing to do with the neighborhood you live in, does it? So many are born into poverty and they transcend it.
Do you believe black people are incapable of building infrastructure, making products, selling services and/or handling money? What do you believe are the strengths & weaknesses of people with dark skin colors? In your opinion, why are black communities unable to grow & maintain wealth amongst the black population? I think diversity works best in capitalism when people don't discriminate sales of goods, services & housing based on skin color, but it also brings everyone DOWN to a lower level in order to become equal. Why is that? Shouldn't we just have nice white neighborhoods, black neighborhoods & mixed neighborhoods scattered throughout all capitalist countries?

As a licensed real estate agent, the prejudice story is not being accurately taught. After WWII, black soldiers were most often denied loans for housing and education. The FHA, primary housing lender at the time, had many rules discriminating against non-Caucasian’s and non Christians. With inability to buy homes, and lesser education, the blacks were inherently denied the ability to build the wealth the discriminators had.
Right, show me all the white people who are treated as equals in African countries lol.... White people are the only people who are demonized for looking out for our own. If this was black realtors refusing to let white tenants in in order to "combat gentrification" none of you would care about that at all so I really don't care that this happened keep that same energy.
@jeaninew.johnson1999 , yes, this is a Hugh, but often overlooked factor. The doors of generational wealth were pretty much slammed shut by our government. Imagine an America affording all classes of people with the ability to produce wealth if they do desired. That's the true American dream.
@@jeaninew.johnson1999 Also, what is often conveniently omitted is that it would take blacks almost 300yrs to build the wealth whites were able to build through home ownership.
Redlining, blockbusting, and restrictive covenants were outlawed by the Fair Housing Act of 1968. There used to be sting operations conducted by HUD to ensure fair treatment in housing in the 1980s (and possibly earlier--I was a newspaper delivery boy and they'd be front page news when I got my stack of papers to deliver on weekdays).

My parents bought a home in Shaker Hts Ohio in the 1950s. The deed said that the house could not be sold to anyone who was Jewish or Black. Of course, this wasn't enforceable when my parents bought it. Shaker, at the time, had other ways of steering prospective homeowners. The one I recall from my childhood...throughout the 70s was that there were no yard signs allowed for homes for sale. You could only find out about available homes through an agent. So, the agents and firms functioned as gatekeepers. That eventually fell by the wayside too. But, yes, this country had...and probably has...some complex methods for structuring exclusivity.
@@ispoilers9535 I’m from Cuyahoga Falls. My family bought there in the early 60’s. I don’t know if the deed mentioned not selling to Blacks but we were known for being an all-white community.

White kids and their families were working in factories 10/12 hours a day, 6 or 7 days a week until not so long ago. Not exactly an ideal life if you ask me.
My grandparents were barred from a home and a country club in Queens, NY. You had to be white and Protestant. Being Catholic, he was told he was out of luck three days before the closing. They had to move in with Grandma and Papa Scanlon plus uncle Jimmy and Great Grandma. The addition of four people made for a crowded situation. They found another place, half of a double house in a lower class neighborhood.
Excellent video...thanks! I learned of this hideous practice in law school. When I was buying a property later, I asked the title company to send drafts of all documents I would be expected to sign or accept at closing at least 48 hours beforehand so I could review. I saw the exclusionary clause in the deed (as it was in every deed in the neighborhood), called the title agent and told her to remove it. Her reaction was "It's not enforceable now, and besides, you're Caucasian, so why do you care?" I replied, "I am well aware that it's not enforceable, but I am going to sell this property some day, and I don't want any potential buyer for whom it once applied to even see it." She grumbled a bit, but I insisted I would not close unless she did as I asked. As far as I know, no one has to accept a deed with that offensive language, so hopefully it will disappear in time.
That’s the problem. White people think things will fix themselves “in time.” Things don’t progressively get better unless there are people willing to do the work to make it better. Whites have the luxury of time. Blacks in America can not afford to sit back and wait.
This wasn't a bad practice at all. People have an in-group preference and didn't want their living spaces to be overrun by other races like what happened in Detroit, Chicago etc. The cities they built were taken away from them
I learned that from a Stephen king book. The dead zone I think. I don’t remember exactly but he mentions the highway creating ghettos or something to that effect

As a young black male professional with a great household income it’s sad that there aren’t any good and safe black neighborhoods with other progressive black families who are professionals at the same level. Most all Black neighborhoods in S Florida are dumps, trashy, dangerous and many are renters. Most of the folks I usually see problems with are section 8 renters or public housing tenants. It’s very rare down here to find a great and safe black neighborhoods when the majority of the residents are usually single parent households with “other folks” living with them who cause problems in the neighborhood.

During her time she kept the blacks OUT of Mishawaka and she told the real estate companies don't sell to any blacks. And it wasn't bcz she was racist, it's bcz of the way she was raised. She was born in 1911 and back then blacks and whites had to be kept separate. And I didn't know about this until last year.

Many people do not understand that segregation was not only in the southern states. Segregation was alive and well here in the state of California. Back in the 1930s there were four types of public schools in California. There was a school for Caucasian students. There was a school for African American students. There was a school for Asian American students. There was a school for Latin American and Native American students. I believe it was in 1947 (or around that time) that California abolished school segregation.
One can abolish something and still maintain the results they were looking for. It is hard to kill a weed unless the root is killed.
In my hometown in Arizona the schools were segregated until 1951. I started school in 1954 and just because the schools were desegregated did not change the mindset of many of the white teachers.
The people who really had it bad in California in the 1930s were the people coming from Oklahoma and Arkansas to pick the crops.

Jim Crow Laws were not just a Southern thing. There are two kinds of segregation in America: de facto and de jure.
In Latin, 'de facto' means 'in fact' or 'in reality'; 'de jure' means 'in law'. De jure segregation refers to the lawful separation of people, while de facto segregation refers to the separation of groups 'naturally' as a result of racism such as in schools and neighborhoods.
De facto is better described as "practically" more than naturally

We worked mandatory weekends and some holidays. It is a lot to ask of a person. They all worked slowly and could never finish their work in an 8 hour shift. Often times they did half or one third what the average worker produced in a day. I could process 25 cases compared to one of them only doing 5 in a day. We had the same experience, but I worked at a much faster pace. Eventually they all quit and wanted an easier job. Back then we were making $150,000 and had they stayed could have earned more.

As a licensed real estate agent, the prejudice story is not being accurately taught. After WWII, black soldiers were most often denied loans for housing and education. The FHA, primary housing lender at the time, had many rules discriminating against non-Caucasian’s and non Christians. With inability to buy homes, and lesser education, the blacks were inherently denied the ability to build the wealth the discriminators had.

I saw the exclusionary clause in the deed (as it was in every deed in the neighborhood), called the title agent and told her to remove it. Her reaction was "It's not enforceable now, and besides, you're Caucasian, so why do you care?" I replied, "I am well aware that it's not enforceable, but I am going to sell this property some day, and I don't want any potential buyer for whom it once applied to even see it." She grumbled a bit, but I insisted I would not close unless she did as I asked. As far as I know, no one has to accept a deed with that offensive language, so hopefully it will disappear in time.
That’s the problem. White people think things will fix themselves “in time.” Things don’t progressively get better unless there are people willing to do the work to make it better. Whites have the luxury of time. Blacks in America can not afford to sit back and wait.

As a young black male professional with a great household income it’s sad that there aren’t any good and safe black neighborhoods with other progressive black families who are professionals at the same level. Most all Black neighborhoods in S Florida are dumps, trashy, dangerous and many are renters. Most of the folks I usually see problems with are section 8 renters or public housing tenants. It’s very rare down here to find a great and safe black neighborhoods when the majority of the residents are usually single parent households with “other folks” living with them who cause problems in the neighborhood.
As a kid we always lived in all or mostly white neighborhoods and never had issues. Maybe a little racism here and there.
I agree but it's the people and you never know a person situation so I don't judge section 8 but I agree the people make it hard I rather go where people have something to lose rather than living with people who have nothing to lose
Good comment. Here in BC, Canada, Neighbourhoods with a large Indian population are often dirty, trashy, lawns unkept, and full of gangster losers. Many of the Indian youth join gangs and try to act Black.
@@Gman2002 I wouldn’t go as far to say there is none because there are in cities in state’s like CA, TX, MD, GA etc. but I can’t speak for Florida. However, I do agree that there should be many more especially based on shared values, education, and income.
Unfortunately, what this person is saying is Exactly! Why white people do not want blacks in their neighborhood. Yes, it's racist but it brings the property values down, it's unsightly, unsafe and chaotic, who wants the cops coming to the neighborhood all the time? Coming from an African, multicultural background ,I will never live in an all black neighborhood. I can remember as a child, being "forced" to live in certain areas, even though my father was in the household with a very good job and my mother was a nurse. My siblings and I would walk to school through an all white neighborhood with beautiful homes and pristine lawns and every morning all the black/other children were watched as they walked to and from school to make sure they didn't veer off the path, as children we didn't really understand what was happening, but our parents always told us "do not stop" for anything or go in anyone's yards, go straight to school and back.
The honest and truthful truth. It is all about class. White people do not want to live in chaotic, violent and low achievement WHITE communities either….
Imagine a neighborhood with no crime, looting, murder or riots.
Yeah, that's exactly what black Americans in Cleveland OH said to themselves as they became the largest demographic to flee Cleveland OH for suburban cities in the last 15 years!

Black history is American history.
I’m biracial. My mom is white and her dad, my grandfathers family, wants nothing to do with us. It’s so sad that I have a whole side of family I will never meet because they grew up with strong hate in the hearts. I have cousins that I went to school with from that side that could never hang out with me outside of school because their parents couldn’t know .. but yet we all have relation. It’s unbelievable how much racism is so strong still to the day. I’m so thankful that I wasn’t born before segregation or even 40 years ago. I was lucky to at least experience most nice and accepting people. Some people weren’t so lucky and I’m devastated to the lives lost because of it.
So easy to blame it on skin color.

Besides the fact you reversed the input and outputs, I agree, leave people alone.

I think It would’ve been interesting to see how the black community would have flourished if left alone… That being said, we would eventually need to confront the Elephant in the room, because Freedom can’t exist with restrictions on skin color, no matter how you slice it.
@@dejstoney Black Wall Street wasn't an anomally either, it was the standard. There were many economically thriving black towns and cities that out paced the white cities and towns. 1 by 1 they were all massacred. In fact thats how BM were killed. It wasn't BM involved with WW but BM who achieved economic success. American history is a LIE! Never get your history from the people who oppressed you and history is always told by the victor.
Was there any crime?
Red lining was everywhere,suburbs, cities, rural areas and entire towns and states (Oregon). Never too late to learn but this story should be much broader.
Tulsa Oklahoma here. The old neighborhood called whiteside in town had laws like that. They arent enforeced but are still there in the neighborhood by laws. It was coast to coast back then.
This was a very interesting video. I learned a lot. It happened all over different places in the United States.
A white family moved into that house , and there goes the neighborhood ,said no one ever...

Yes, it has been said then and some WASP's still have this view now. All whites were not equal back then. At one time, Italians and Irish were considered scum so they were not welcomed in WASP neighborhoods. Later on they were, even JD Vance made a comment about how Italians, Germans and Irish led to higher crime and conflict when they came here.

just because a house is nice does not mean that there is love. Love from your family is what matters
Wrong. It's supposed to be love from your community. Love from your family in a house surrounded by have nots that definitely only love the things in your back yard, isn't ideal but is a soothing mindset I get it. Safety, crime, my kids school district all take precedent in 2024. Respectfully, we can't be that niave🤷🏾♂️💯
Well I learned about it (in the 60's). I don't know how you could miss it. Just because it wasn't spelled-out to little kids in school, you (your parents) really had to be willfully denying it. Unfair housing was front and center. I guess the trend in schools today is to try to pretend systemic racism didn't happen. Adults have no excuse, except willful ignorance.
The problem back then, and even now with my mom, alot of black mothers and fathers knew it was something wrong but didn't know how to articulate it to us. So it all comes off as just justified anger so the kids and their kids never get the real specifics as to how all this works. Even now alot ppl are brainwashed about voting.🤷🏾♂️
There are many areas of societal systems that oppose Black people. The refusal to acknowledge this and similar stories has led many to believe that racism slavery, and the injustices that come along with it are a thing of the past when in fact they have created the constraints that impact so many today. Thanks for this story. It’s very informative.
If i had the chance to live in peace, i'd move there.
What is it about white skin, bones, brains that make you prefer only those qualities then other races? Only white people want separation
Anyone with a brain would also. They act like people don’t purposely live amongst their own. Their just mad that the white areas are always nice but the black people don’t know how to live amongst society and their houses and neighborhoods fall in to violence and disrepair
Not much living in peace in most brown neighborhoods in USA, the past is sad but doesn't justify hate towards light skinned people who had nothing to do with that past behavior of violent and opportunist monsters.

This was happening to us as a Jewish and Middle Eastern family as well… well into 2000.
Ya, that's why Jewish and middle Eastern extraction folks are among the wealthiest members
of our Society. Everyone tries to be a victim and gain an advantage over the Average working class
person. I have lived in over 28 Countries. Everywhere you go there is serious discrimination against
white people, and especially white Americans. Focusing on skin or ethnic origin does not advance
civilization. Fawning victimhood to gain advantage is far too common. All Americans are victims
of many different harms and actions--mostly done by Government. Go forward into the light.
@@heofthebee how is learning about explicit discrimination based on ethnic or racial background causing harm to the working class? The working class was (in the past) largely screwed over by the private sector essentially viewing them as tools to get jobs done. That's no longer true but the change came about because lessons from history were heeded. Working class moreover is not an ethnic group - it's an economic category which includes people of all ethnic backgrounds. So the comparison is not exactly apples to apples. It's lovely that you're bashing a person sharing their observation for playing the victim card by playing the economic class victim card yourself. Jewish people of ethnic European extraction look different from those of middle eastern extraction. That's just due to geography. There's a reason why I point that difference.

I work in Palo Alto area, I've met many nice people there. Still bump into some prejudice people who seem racist. Unfortunately, it's not only east Palo and Palo Alto. There's more areas around the bay area that are divided and it's not race anymore but rich vs poor now. It's not going too change that's just the way things work I guess.
One is discrimination based on how smart and hard you work vs the other where its discrimination on what color you are which isn't something you cant change unlike your work ethic and intelligence which everyone can change.

This is still happening today. The only difference is it’s just done. Nobody writes “race” on paper or blatantly be racist. They just have polices and procedures that works around the wording. In the 80s here in Brooklyn NY a black family’s house was burned down because they bought a home in an all white neighborhood. It’s not even affluent. Just working class people. In the 90s and 2000s Citibank and other banks still discriminate. I’ve had my own personal experiences as well with education. Thanks to an Indian family whose child wasn’t able to go to the local gifted and talented school found out that the predominantly white school (in a mixed area) only allowed a certain amount of non white students into the school at a time. My son(black) was sent to another gifted school in another area because of this law the year before. This kind of thing is every day life for us(blacks)
