    OH MY GOD!! I grew up in Jamica, Hollis, Queens and never experienced this my parents did a great job sheltering us from discrimination. Only as an adult and now have I experienced racism and discrimination. Thank You, for posting this .

      Marty Martinez i grew up i. Hollis/ Queens Village and went to Jamaica HS (was in HS in 1976) and had friends of all different colors from all different backgrounds. This video horrifies me. I remember the story airing on the news and it horrified me then. I am so glad my experience was so different. And yes i do remember Gabys and still go there when i am in Queens.

    I grew up in Rosedale and I remember this! It's a Recurring nightmare I've lived for years. It got worst in Rosedale. More black families purchased homes but dynamite blew up the home before they moved in.

    I'm sure I attended school with some of those kids in the footage(Springfield Gardens HS 72 graduate). Lived in Sprinfield Gardens and the adjacent town (Laurelton) used to be similarly racist but started opening up to blacks hence the white flight to Rosedale where racism was even more pervasive. I knew blacks werent welcome there but at the time didn't realize it was that intense! Most of the white kids played it off well.Not many fights ,no n-word we all got along in different club activities,sports etc. My 4 years in HS was quite enjoyable and I wouldn't trade it for the world.At the end of the day literally and figuratively the whites headed east and the blacks west.

    How did you guys miss the other house that was firebombed? You know it was more than 1.... let's not forget the McDonald's on Francis Lewis Blvd, at the time I lived in 251-09 Francis Lewis Blvd. the Reverend who moved into me next door ( 251-15 Francis Lewis ) was Black in a largely white area in 1975 - I lived next to them, I was a little kid, I remember the whole night well, Jerry ( Jerome ) McDonald was my best friend at the time, the only black kid I knew till 1978. I live in Las Vegas till 1991... But there were the Race Riots in the 80s too in Brookville Park and let's not forget Howard Beach.

    I remember this well , I was 16 ....definitely remember an angry mob of white ppl, angry because a black family dared to move in.... I remember some of these people worked at the various air freight companies off 147 ave. They even did a cross few cross burnings...Brookville park was a place you were chased out of and or had bottles thrown at you just for being there. A guy I knew who lived near Craft ave we worked together and he HATED black people and always had something nasty to say..... until he wound up in jail for many years and when he came out not of his buddies were left, he had nothing, He met a beautiful woman from Jamaica W.I. and they fell in love...got married and have 3 really nice kids. He called me after many years and asked me to forgive him for all he said to me in the past and that he was just trying to fit in when he said them. I can say it did hurt and I wanted to hurt him... 43 years later we are still friends....and we do talk about the past since there is no use in pretending it didnt happen. He is a better person in so many ways.....I will give all that credit to his lovely wife.
