- Sunday, August 28, in Washington, President Obama leads the nation in dedicating a new national memorial to the late civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. King was a southern Baptist minister who rose to become the leading voice of the nation's modern day civil rights movement during the1950's and 1960's. His struggle for equal rights and those of millions of African Americans did not come easily. VOA's Chris Simkins has more on one of the pivotal events in the civil rights movement that brought national and international attention to King and his philosophy of non-violence.

I couldn’t imagine having to confront biting dogs held by the very people who are supposed to serve and protect me. I hope every single one of these school kids know that their courageous attitudes and spirits on those disgraceful days helped bring civil justice to their people.
Don't break the law oil and water don't mix
Yeah in the form of a holiday name, slavery and unequal protections/services are well alive here. At least they didn’t put the soldiers that fought on a farm immediately after the war that didn’t end slavery.
@@williamfisherjr5531you're not exempt from being a number 😅
Making it a point to watch this right now. During this time. So we don't forget history.
They knew this would happen and marched anyway, knowing they wouldn’t fight back. MLK saw the success of Gandhi and adapted the strategy to the USA. If they fight back, the oppressors will use it to justify the racism they already held. But if hey don’t, people will have no choice but to see how monstrous racism really is.
These are some of the bravest people in history and I will respect them until I die.
George Wallace was the Democrat governor back then and the Democrats are still just as racist as they were back then.
@@youknowwhat3747 Both parties are destructive and exploitative of their real targets, the working class. Black white brown etc, it doesn't matter, if you WORK HARD, THEY WANT YOUR MONEY.
@@youknowwhat3747 ..Were not focused on a political party of racists. Our focus is on the race of the racists.

if we forget history, we’re doomed to repeat it
Agreed, we already fought the civil war and ended slavery. Looks like the BLM would like you to forget that... cant get enough of that hatred padding those corporate pockets.
Nah, this type of open season discrimination won't ever happen again. These new age nostalgic "raised by grand pappy in the good ol' days" boys aren't brave enough to try and move like this in today's society. They know that we're not just going to march, sing, cry & hold hands about it if they EVER think that these types of atrocities will ever be commonplace again. It's not all the way better, now, but it isn't this either.
&
Don't @ me about the summer of 2020 or any bs about Chicago or DNC cities that are in poverty. Context of this video is about openly racist w h i t e people terrorizing people from my community that look like me. They will NOT be able to ever move like that again.

Lmao just after fighting a civil war, with 600k dead, 3.5 million news blacks freed, we let the White South start Jim Crow law & Segregation for nearly 100 yr.
After ending segregation we started a phony "war on drugs" & locked hundreds of thousands more Blacks up.
Guess BLM trying to remind you that as well.
Our men and women and their children who suffered these atrocities need to be recognized and honored.
..period!! They were marching in a domestic war zone peacefully. They deserve medals of honor. Rest in power and fight on!! God bless.

Right. This was REAL racism. This is what happened when they PEACEFULLY protested shit.

Just remember the governor back then was George Wallace and he was a Democrat

History is repeating itself. It’s 2020 and we are still fighting.
What people like Martin Luther king did was peaceful protest. He didnt hate whites... he just wanted equality and peace. What's happening rn is straight white hatred
Ashton Dillard racist/racism hate.
Stop acting like MLK and the movement were seen as saints. The police and society despised them and engaged in violence against them. They were demeaned and beat just like today's protesters.
@@hornedgoddess8191 obviously. That makes him even more of a badass,the fact that he protested non violence even tho he looked straight into the heart of violence and racism
@@ashtondillard6214 well eventually when you keep the same people under the same bullshit conditions they'll start to feel a certain system way about it. Mlk and his peace movements didnt work so what else is there
This video is a great reminder of how far we've come as a country and how important the Civil Rights Movement was in shaping our history. It's also a reminder of how much work we still have to do to ensure equality for all. Thank you for sharing this video.
Unfortunately Trump thinks this is when America was great.......
My dad was just 10 years old when this stuff was happening & it's happening again when I'm 32. Keep on fighting and maybe someday, things will be alright.
I hope your IQ is higher than your math score....
Amen and hopefully the whole USA will become more like Birmingham Al and Memphis TN soon ....
@@wildestcowboy2668indeed. Would be nice to turn those cities around have them be examples for the rest of the Republic. Stay strong fellow brother ✊🏿
Everyone here is a legend! Thank you all for your service!
The fact that she was a young a adult then and still not that old now is just crazy to imagine. This world. Why is it taking this long :(
Very big shoutout to the white folks who was standing together with the Blacks as these things was going on! Ridiculous how evil these people treated others back then.
They dug their own grave
Amen !!! ❤
I always will feel like we should have fought for independence instead of rights they created but im very proud ti be black and I honor my ancestors
They keep questioning why did God make some people Black? It's not for you to question that, but just know that we have a right to live and be happy regardless.
And this is how you make change. I wish the world would learn from Dr. King.
It's actually said to see now 2020 and it's still exactly the same
@Hannah Richardson police still treat black ppl like that holding them down and stuff racism still happens.
@@maribelreyes1006 what’s the problem with that?
@@memesfromdema5032 really ppl still get killed for their race
@@maribelreyes1006 Sad that your so clearly being manipulated. The fact that you were so extra as to call it "EXACTLY" the same tells me your ignorant and a bit of an adreniline junky about this stuff. If you travel the world a bit youll very quickly find out that the world is far more complicated than black and white. Those that seek to manipulate you into saying outlandishly stupid shit like that are simply causing hatred and division FOR CORPORATE PROFIT.
Its really sad but if you guys cant snap out of this soon we are going to have to deal with the aggressive dog that keeps biting people.
@@Energine1 and you're the type who would have told these people to calm down.and they were wrong for fighting
Love to see these old videos. Everyone is so well-dressed and thin.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is just one of many examples of things many elected officials of a certain political persuasion don’t want your children learning about.
This was such a great moment for humanity, not for the authorities, but for the protesters who never used violence despite having violent retaliation. They were nothing short of honorable and brave.
Grande homem usado pro Deus, uma grande referência para os dias passados e atuais..
My grandma was 1 yr old in 1956 and I think that stuff was happening too
Woods was my assistant principal in high school.
Very sad time in America 🇺🇸 .
Those nerds caused all of this!
Thank you
Wow, they treated dogs better than other humans.
Martin Luther King said...I HAVE A DREAM!!!
This is a real low point for government and law enforcement, not too far off from the climate of today. The door is open now, wider than ever, for permanent change. People died for us to get here. We have to see it through .
Idk if the schools are taking the time in teaching our next generations of this.
But the amount of views I see for this event in American history bothers me. This is something so crucial and showing of how not even so long ago discrimination was as nasty as it is today. Hatred. Right here between the borders of our nation not so long ago.
This comment screams section 8 housing and ashy
@@adamwatts3042. This comment scream racist pos.
They definitely should. Lucky enough, I was taught about this when I was in 1st grade (I'm 22 and finishing up my last semester in college). It was traumatizing, but I'm still grateful for learning about this.
Please put this on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter also other site this needs to be seen for our voter rights are in trouble!!!!!
Whoa! @2:29, the spray from the fire hose knocks the guy tumbling right over! Now THAT'S some water pressure! Cool! The armored vehicles built and used as crowd control nowadays, have a port so that pepper spray or other chemical irritants can be injected into the water stream, for some extra "oomph"!
It's wonderful 🧡💚🇸🇸
the 35 dislikes from people who just want attention and don’t have friends
Make that 52 Dislikes
No doubt Dr. King was a man sent by God to oppose evil in America. Think about how much courage you needed to face those police dogs, those police officers and you still had to preach Non-violence as your creed? Without Martin Luther King, Jr the cause would've been lost of taken the wrong path.
White people have more evil people then good
The Gov should apologize & payup
Apologizes,when they say we arent even fully human beings,get real.They still hate us this day.
Yup
police brutality done under the color of law
It wasn't only King that lead to desegregation it was the "worldstar" videographers videos sent around the world that caused pressure. Had there been no cameras who knows what would happen. Anyway as I watch this video it's like watching pure evil displayed.
This is police brutality. Not wanting to get arrested and fighting the officer is not police brutality.
And here's our dumbass or Racist.

Exactly.
“And we turned that bull into a steer” - a quote by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr during his “I have been the mountaintop speech” referring to Sheriff Bull Connor. Dr. King was not violent but he was not a passive man.
ACTION not lip service made a difference.
"I miss the good ol' days."
The good ol' days:
History is repeating itself....ALL over again.
02:33 is for the black man that loosed his two large German Shepherds on me today outside of the Starbucks. He was waiting for me to turn the curb, then gave the dog a command to approach me without a leash. The dog charged me, then stopped as he commanded it to. Looking confused the dog came in my direction again, then stopped, as the owner again called it back. The animal was very confused as to what it was supposed to do.
First of all this is illegal in Nashville. But I know the cops here will not address it, because they are also targeting me. I calmed my self and held eye contact with the owner.
"wassup?" he stated, glaring at me.
"You sic your dogs on me" I asked?
"Naw." he lied. "you ain't white". I then walked off calm, but feeling that heat starting to rise in me, as I knew that I had just been targeted. The equivalent of which is having a loaded gun pointed at me and not fired.
This is a blatant disregard of legality, law, and the allowance of harm against other beings. AND it happened on Mother's Day.
Oddly, I had just seen the same police officer that several months ago, had reached for his gun while I removed my ear plugs.
And then two German Shepard's are basically loosed on me; sadly, by another black man.
Mr. Black Man, do you not know your history, and how black , brown, yellow, and even white people were terrorized all over the world by these "German" shepherds?
So what protection do I have here, if I can be targeted at my job for violence, targeted at my own home with violence, targeted by law enforcement and citizens with violence?
How do I defend my right to live on this planet? are there no spirits of the Earth that can aid me? Are all my ancestor's deaf to my need for personal safety? Has all the military completely forsaken the constitution or the law of do no harm?
Are there zero consequences for acts of intended violence against humans? I am asking my Kemetic ancestors, the Earth spirits, the military, denizens of the lower middle and upper worlds, and any and all off world allies that I may have?
HOW DO I PROTECT MY LIFE FORCE? And will you PLEASE AID ME and all humans in doing so?
Whaaaaaaa
El saber que hablas con palabras dd DIOS!!
DEEP!
The one thing I disagree with is ever putting women, children or elders in harm"s way. This was and is a war our men should fight (2 Corinthians 10:4 KJV). And before anyone says they aren't, there are plenty of brothers out in the streets and online teaching and gathering their brothers and sisters.
Does that mean
All we say to America is, “Be true to what you said on paper.” If I lived in China or even Russia, or any totalitarian country, maybe I could understand some of these illegal injunctions. Maybe I could understand the denial of certain basic First Amendment privileges, because they hadn’t committed themselves to that over there. But somewhere I read of the freedom of assembly. Somewhere I read of the freedom of speech. Somewhere I read of the freedom of press. Somewhere I read that the greatness of America is the right to protest for right. And so just as I say, we aren’t going to let dogs or water hoses turn us around, we aren’t going to let any injunction turn us around. We are going on. ~MLK~

years later here we go!!! 🚮🚮🚮💔
And we suppose to forgiven forget
Steve Williams nope
Steve Williams Sheeeit!
Considering your not being chased by lions in Africa yea I would just call it even bitch and black people hurt more black people than white ever will and did
Those people dead by now
Miles Guillory lol what Chase by Lions really thats how u feel damn lol but forreal tho u might be right bout black on black killing but we will never forget wat happen back in slavery time to the civil Rights movement like that not cool like that fuk up honestly and it wouldn't be even when we get to America we getting beat for no real reason like we just wanted to be equall but if we had never left Africa lol I'm pretty sure we not running from Lions at least I hope not lol but I'm sure we would had a lot of big cities in Africa lol I mean like Africa is not just like a jungle they got big cities and countries too like gona lol idk how to spell it but u know wat I mean😂
well baby our people fought back TODAY! Bet yall wont try that ish no more cant bully us like you did our grandparents … Selma Alabama learned today 😂😂😂😂
It is no such thing as a African-American never ever forget that
Boy he was successful just look at Birmingham Al today and good ole Memphis TN.
The most courageous elegant example of PURE Christianity. Such a gorgeous, strong and profound people who have given us everything culturally the World loves about America. Blues, Ragtime, Jazz, Rock n Roll, Hip Hop - the greatest Artists, writers, actors and musicians. The most creative spark, Dignity, Grace, Brilliance, Power and Humour- all while being CONSTANTLY brutalized since the first day they were dragged from their homes and dumped here in 1619 ! Remarkable beyond measure! I pray we shall ALL overcome this sickness and disease of Racism.
#NEVERFORGETKING
Very sad
They trying to delete this
I think it’s safe to say, its still segregated… by money & not by color
I remember watching this on television as it was happening in real time. It was the summer before I started kindergarten in Chicago. As I watched my mother’s face as she watched in horror and called her friends to watch (among them Dorothy Gautreuax), it was at that moment, at the age of 5, that I learned about race in America. These people are my martyrs. Unfortunately little has changed since then.
Just pointless to segregate stuff we are all children of god
What did Malcolm X say about this?
Same media sez these were peaceful too. Not sure who to believe.
There’s a difference between protests now and then. These people now deserve what those back then didn’t deserve. If you gonna burn buildings, loot business and beat down inoccent shop owners, then by all means yous get what you deserve
Wack
Are u white
Who keeps deleted my nevermind I just
Everytime i talk and listen about the bombing in Birmingham i get slightly teary just thinking about it all.
The mad dog Bull Connor sent police dog against unarmed protesters.
Why can we have peace and peace not peace and violence
I do not know how to swim
May God continue to Give strength and Energy to those fighting against Racism, Hate, and Evil. Whites are not bad people....But there are many hiding in plain sight today, that have allowed the Devil to use them as His tool for evil.
These amazing people went through hell. They truly fought for what they wanted. Equality. These fools nowadays follow the culture. Dr King did his job. Can’t we support his faith in peace and equality? Not gangs and crime.

Hello study, how are you doing today.

Better run
I’m reminded of the argument of peaceful protests vs riots in 2020, considering the mlk-led protest was at most civil disobedience what happened in the summer of 2020 is nothing short of a mockery to the 1960’s protestors and the manifestation regarding the democrat-led destruction of the black nuclear family.
There were huge riots in the 1960s dude
That's mest up
