King Jr greatest close friend on earth i know this will be very interesting too hear Andrew tell his truth in those times thank God he is still with us at 92 years old happy belated birthday king Andrew young❤👑🙏🏽💯💕🎊💪🏾🌟
I grew up in Berkeley, CA, during the era of the Black Panther's, as well!!! My birth was in 1959, December, so I was very familiar with the Black Panthers. If it wasn't for them there would be no traffic signals in certain busy areas of Berkeley or Oakland or various other places. One of those, was on King St. & Ashbey Sts., & Market & 40th Sts., in Berkeley & Oakland perspectively. They were responsible for quite a lot of positive accomplishments, as well!! Thanks for the accomplishments of The Black Panther Party. Early Civil Rights was a good part of history. Let's NOT forget!!!
Exactly when black history month comes around mlk was always brought up but he didn't do everything by himself. They don't talk about the men that struggled with him like Jesse Jackson Ralph Albernathy Andrew Young it was all a team
No one (including MLK) said he did it all by himself. He would be the first to say so. But he did take a bullet to the face so everyone can freely debate and diminish his contribution without being lynched for it, tho.
He was always so handsome to me I used to love to look at him in my younger age but I'm at the age of 60th, and still so happy to see him even in his older age I'm going to give him his flowers.Mr.Andrew Young!💐💐💐💐💐🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💕
I remember Mr. Young as our associate pastor in San Diego. I grew to love him and his family before they moved to Atlanta. I remember them driving away in their family automobile. That day was one of the saddest days for me as a young man. I have never forgotten him and his family.
I am so overjoyed by this beautiful piece on our history. His perspective was so organic, enlightening and endearing. Potent! Kudos to the director and director of photography. This was cinematically beautiful as well as thorougly educational. Wow ❤
Thank you for this historical video. I remember vividly that day in 1968. I was getting ready for school and I felt an awful feeling in my soul. Even though I was not exposed to politics at that time, I felt a very deep feeling that taking the life of this peaceful man was totally wrong. Some years later, I had the privilege of serving members of MLK family on a flight when I became a flight attendant in 1972. They were so polite and quiet. There was something very different about them. What a privilege to have served them. One memorable flight, I can’t still see them. Someone will pay on that judgement day. He was a great conservative Republican who knew the real meaning of democracy, not what we have now. Thank you MLK!
I was born July 19,1964. I grew up in West Oakland, The Bay Area. Coming out of the end of the BlK Panthers Era. We were very very Blessed.Unlike Southern States like Texas & Others We were taught our Blk History as much as the teachers knew from preschool on up.That was the say it loud I'm Blk & I'm proud era. I had the biggest crush on Andrew Young as a young girl. I also grew up in Church & And come from a long line of ancestors that was Holy Rollers. My Mom sent me to Waco, TX for two yrs. For enrolling myself in school of my choice she didn't approve of. So two yrs in TX. With my Dad's Sister Was my punishment.La Vega High. I was the only BlK in many of my classes. This wht boy who meant no harm, asked me how do I feel being the only BlK in the class. I was so tickled, I laughed Soo hard. With hair down my back. I thought Blk People was the superior race. Back then I attended all Blk Catholic Schools. But the nuns didn't wear Habits.They wore their own clothes , but before we graduated 8th grade.Even from kindergarten you mastered in all yr classes, before you went to the next grade.Yes you did get the paddle if you cut up in class in public or Catholic schools.They don't make Teacher's, Mom's, Dad's like that no more. I attended Berkeley High in the 10th Gr. On.My Wht male teacher in my government class taught us how to Demonstrate & Fight for our civil rights.Before gentrification Oakland & The schools was primarily Blk.Those was beautiful times I feel for Generation xyz Today.
I would also like to also salute our Blk poets Etc Maya Angelou, Claude McKay, Langston Hughes, W.E.B. Du Bois, Paul Lawrence Dunbar. And many more. I got in so much trouble by my Mom for not cleaning up on time. my head was always in a book say's my Mom
I lived in Atlanta from 1971 to 2002. I remember Mayor Young. He was very respected by both back and white people. Corretta, Hosea, Mayor Young...I remember them all. Wish Dr. King was around back then. I am thinking while all the ignorance has not yet been eraticated thank goodness it exists only in small pockets. When President Obama was elected I just wanted to hug every black person in my sight! Some of the rural south is still ignorant. But I see progress every day. BLM!
Agreed, my grandparents are 91and 86 ( papa is older) Man they are smart as whips still unfortunately they are almost the last two in all their generation of families ( first cousins, siblings). My grandfather was born and raised in South Carolina My grandmother is a Uptown girl born in Manhattan ( Near central Park west) I'mso blessed to have them and hear their stories of growing up during this time. This is my mothers side My fathers parents passed before i was born but My grandmother was Baptized my Adam ClaytonPowell Sr. ( junior was also in attendance) Shes from Harlem @angela77991
@@angela77991his work for the civil rights movement was so important, monumental that uts impossible to forget. It was televise nationally ad tv became the preferred form of media information as opposed to radio, newspapers and magazines
My mother told me the older you get you'll remember things that happened 20 years ago so clearly, but where you put your keys 5 minutes ago will be foggy.❤😂
As a black nation in society if we forget where we came from , so how much more we can’t never lose hold of our own unity of peace, love & courage . At all cost,
God put us all here on this earth for a purpose. Please pray: A) Jesus I admit that I am a sinner and that you loved me even in my sin B) I believe that you died for me C) I commit my life to you Jesus. Be the boss of my life. Amen. Now you are saved. Read God’s word and Walk in God’s purpose for your life.❤😊🙏🏾
Freedom to express a issue, with a right, according to law and constitutional acceptance by states, and with international justice to Justify a cause,with a bill of particulars to solve conflicts is a story
The People especially the BlK people Thank all our Blk Civil Rights leaders for sacrificing their rights, their freedom, their family's, For our freedom today. They still tryna put us back in slavery 2024. We got to Pray to the God up above without ceasing
That's make me sad if i see today many young black boys and black girls who refuse to do their best about their education, or gang and drug problem. How many ppl has been killed, jailed etc for them to live the life they lives today in America even if racism and discrimination are never end
Jesse Owens wasn't just the world's fastest runner but he was a beautiful runner who had almost effortless stride. His upper body barely moves when he's running. Check out how the torsos of the runners behind him lurch and struggle (not a pretty sight 😂). Jesse Owens made running look beautiful. 4:28
This is what angers me the most, the effort and struggle his generation and generations before went through to secure voting rights and recognition as human beings and to see the state of black apathy as towards politics today is saddening. I understand it but at the same time it feels wrong and disrespectful to these people and their sacrifices.

This is awful and painful to watch. My grandmother was white, and I was raised in Arkansas in the early 70’s and I never experienced racism. However, when I moved to California in the mid seventies, I noticed that the schools were vastly different. I experienced racism in the late eighties while attending college. I’m grateful for my grandparents and great grandparents. I asked my mom if she experienced racism and she said that my grandmother was strict, and only allowed her and her siblings go to school, and play basketball 🏀 I believed her, because my mom was strict 😁😂🤣 my grandmother didn’t allow us to venture outside of the front yard. My great grandparents were very strict too, and so was my great aunt who lived down the road from my great grandparents. I was very intelligent at three years old and I pretend to be feeding the horses, or playing with the dogs. 😁😂🤣 I would walk down the road about a mile to my great aunt Nellie house for a slice of homemade coconut cake. 🤷🏽 I believe everyone white knew I belonged to my great grandparents and no one bothered me. One day in the 4th grade I walked all the way home from school to my grandmother’s house and almost gave her heart attack 😁😂🤣I never walked home again. I didn’t understand racism, especially when your half your family is white 🤷🏽♂️
This man said he was a man of the cloth , but NOT one time telling his story, did he glorify or thank GOD. Not one time, did he say he was blessed.This man said in so many words, that he and Martin Luther King was chosen to do a work for GOD. People, you better understand that Only GOD could give that kind of strength and determination for righteousness!!! ONLY a powerful and wise GOD can instruct them in wisdom to defeat the white man, Shame on him!! GOD said " I will not give my glory to another". Garza in the BIBLE said to certain scribes " If they are if GOD then you will not fight against them, BUT you will fight against GOD. Those white people understood VERY well, they were fighting against supernatural power and strength. I guarantee Martin Luther King understood he was chosen due to GOD given dreams. SAD he too never mention GOD in any of his speeches!! Yet his name went down in history. Well I thank GOD, amen!! Hallelujah!! Micah 7:8, Isaiah 42:8, Acts 5:39.
We just don't know how ( IMPORTANT ) this great man was , man I just want to say thank u.
Bless you Rev. Young thank you elder for all your sacrifices.

I am so glad to hear from Andrew Young point of view. You always hear about Martin L. King, but he wasn't the only one fighting for our freedom.

Did you forget about the women? Whom do you think was the driving force?

This is beautiful. But I feel like we only got half the story. I hope there is a part 2 down the pike.

I was stunned when I heard my small town mention, but not surprised. Doerun.

Its just liike Dr. King said "Anyone can serve".

Well what happened in the Patty wagon did they let them go what happened?
They did time in jail until their bail was posted by the naacp.
@13:55 all due respect to MLK but he had it wrong about a year before he was assassinated he renigged on that way of thinking.
That's so ignorant.And ignorance is bliss 😂❤
MREs are not for human consumption, find the animals attracted to these
But really? What did he do for the blackcommunity? As of lately, not a thing
