    Claudette Colvin & Gwendolyn Sanders. Two true American heroes. I am over 50 years old and watching this show and just learning about these two. Why is this skipped over in our history classes?

    • @joyharmon1110
      @joyharmon1110 Před rokem +3

      I think it is because of the way journalism was at that time. No one went around and interviewed individuals to get the back story. Also, white journalists who got involved were in as much danger as the blacks. You had to be really brave to choose to take on that danger. Maybe someone will comment with more details on this.

    • @bernardsanderson5891

      So in this instance even Rosa parks didn’t want you to think about Claudette or Gwendolyn because of “optics.” A young black girl with a child on the way out of wedlock (or whatever the reason) is an unsympathetic victim and looks a lot less deserving of sympathy than Rosa Parks “tired from work,” especially back then.
      I mean think about those young black men murdered by police. Anything will be used against them. Past interactions w/ police, maybe they weren’t fully cooperating, maybe they know criminals, all these will be used as a sign of guilt and somehow absolve the police of any wrongdoing.
      People use George Floyd’s drug addiction to say police brutality doesn’t exist. When it’s on camera, for the whole world to see. Breonna Taylor too, I’ve heard people say it was justified because she was associated with criminals.
      This hasn’t stopped happening, if anything it’s more overt, but obfuscated by entertainment news media fear mongering.

    I don't get the book thing either. I am white and my school books back in the 1950s had often been used by several other students. We were lucky to ever get new books. They finally started replacing them more often when they realized that times were changing too fast and science and history books weren't keeping up. This may have been a cause of social class rather than race, in this case. There was a distinct difference between neighborhoods.
    There werealso some schools in Florida that required students to buy their own books. That was way more unfair. I was too young to understand back then. In hindsight, however I realize it was a way of avoiding that argument. It was Florida and our town had just built a new "black" school. Talk about confusing the children. My brother said, "Why do they (negros as we said back then) want to go to our school. It is so old and they have a brand new school."
    Florida was also peculiar, in that there were a lot of snowbirds who only lived there part-time. They didn't care about schools, since most of them were retired or if they had children, they were in private schools.
