My grandmother is black and very lightly melanated. When she was young she didn’t really experience racism the way that my uncle’s and aunts did. She was a business owner at 20. That’s impressive for someone that was born in 1920 and black. She said she tried picking cotton but, quit after a week because it hurt her hands and she couldn’t sew.

Same I said it once in the form of (door bell ditch) I was young and ignorant I ran up out of breath with some friends. She asked “what are y’all doing “ I said (THAT WORD knocking). My mom smacked me so hard I flipped over our short rock wall onto my face in front of ALL my friends.

Wow ..... I actually felt that slap. I know people would say she shouldn't have slapped you, but talked you through it but slapping (not punching and beating) was how good parent shocked the shit out of you (PS I have never been slapped by my parents because my mom just had to LOOK at me 😀
@debbiebasche5337 she was against an unjust war that killed too many innocents, including US soldiers. She was neither against soldiers nor against veterans, whom the US ignored once they came back broken.
@debbiebasche5337 Yes, I watched that lousy war play out on my television every night. It wasn't a necessary war, fought for defense of American freedoms. It did accomplish two things: 1. It made corporations & stockholders wealthier. 2. It killed many, many people... for no good reason. After the Vietnam War, the politicians became clever. They no longer allow the raw horrors of war to be shown on nightly news. It makes for fewer reactions from the citizen majority.
Parents were married for 38 years. My father was so racist. My mother was for equality for all. She loved everybody no matter what. I’m glad I looked to my mother instead of my father.
My Father was a white man that never saw a blk man in his life until he came to America. He loved the blk men that he worked with. They helped him with his job & he was so grateful. I loved that about my dad...taught me how to love no matter the color of a person!! ❤
I am s black woman 66 and I was raised by my father he was my step father but my dad he was a mixed man his mom was a white lady from the Carolina's we just wasn't taught that racist demon we were raised in a mixed inverioment raised mil up bringing in different countries we just dident have that teaching in our familes and I am thankful we dodent because HATE IS A STRONG EVIL SPRIT IT THE DEALIST CANCER IN THE WORLD 😢
Henry Fonda was for civil rights. I knew that as a teenager. My mother would not let us watch movies or shows with racist people. We were allowed to watch Carroll O’Conner because he okayed a racist Archie Bunker but he was for civil rights he was walking in marches. But the Fonda family has always let it be known whose side there were on and it was never racist.
same with Virgil Frye, Soilel Moon beFrye late father. One of the first white celebs to speak opening and for civil rights at the time. Could another reason why she was chosen for the Proud family.
Both my grandpa and my dad had black best friends. In a small town it was rare and people starred but they never cared. They loved and helped their friends until the day they died. Im so grateful to be raised by real men who showed us there's no difference between us. ❤
.... and in small towns, the opportunity to KNOW someone without all the bullshit rhetoric was what allowed your grandpa and your dad to just have the friends they did ... no politics involved at pre-school! TBH I sometimes think that large groups of humans are their own worst enemy - often mobs waiting to stomp on others and in cities, you may not see that sense of kindness and community that you do in a small town village or on an island.
That whack is what we expected from parents of past generations in order to right the wrongs of the past for _all_ of us today. We were supposed to progress, but unfortunately…

This is why it’s “his story “ in “history “ It’s not a patriarchy that actual helps melanin existence Yet to reconstruct it gradually and omitting the mental breadcrumbs to find the inalienable truth
I respect this woman so much as well as her father. Henry Fonda, Betty White and Danny Thomas ( to name a few) grew up in a time of racism and chose to love their brothers from another mother. So when people make excuses for old racist it makes me sick. Racism is a choice not a disease.
Yep. I think I was 6 when I said “ the word” and my mom was a shade of mad I never saw before. She screamed at me and washed my mouth out with soap. A few months later we are walking with thousands of white, black, brown souls to show strength in numbers for the little girls in Selma.( I think it was 1962). I then understood why my Mom was so upset with me. She tricked the school district into dissolving segregation : the bus route could no longer ignore one area of the town, and had to be re-routed to include me, now living with a black family( family friends). I have fond memories of being loved, spoiled with good food, and embracing Gospel music that thundered thru the church. I still remember the verses, which sound better when you are stomping your feet and clapping your hands! 🙏
My Mom never allow her children to use the "N" word. 'Til this Day, my Sisters and Brother DON'T SAY THAT WORD! TIL THIS DAY, I HAVE RESPECT FOR MY MOTHER BECAUSE OF THAT. SHE TAUGHT US SOOOOOO MUCH. SHE WAS JAMAICAN! A TRUE JAMAICAN WOMAN.
I'd say he's actually a despicable one because he thought violence with the pathway to correction with his child. It's shocked me how many people have congratulated this man's actions, condoning slapping someone across the face all in the name of teaching his child not to be racist, when she was clearly ignorant of the words meaning. Could that not have been learnt by words instead? Boggles my mind how accepted and common place the lack of self control in parenting is.
@@melissamercado2620 yes I am proudly 'one of those' who sees it completely unnecessary to SLAP people, let a lone a child across the face. To me this is not a measured approach and falls outside the scope of discipline. Clearly you believe that if a child doesn't know something due to lack of education, you believe the first point of action is to physically 'discipline' them for not knowing and then educate? No wonder we live in world that shows little love and respect towards each other. It starts in the home, with parents being our first role models and teachers.
@@AlexanderTheGraypeit’s not just because it “hurt” but it’s the memory and teaching he left her the reason it made the lady emotional with pride of who her father was. I say this because my mother also recalls memories about her father leaving her knowledge about life even though he hit her with a belt like people did back then to their children, she recalls those memories with pride because she knows it was for her own good( like no to stealing, etc) btw he was a loving father too who deeply cared about his family and was affectionate to them as well. I don’t want people to get the wrong impression.
I really enjoyed this interview and I love Jane Fonda! I always loved Henry Fonda and have watched a lot of his movies. Thank you for sharing this Kerry! People need to know about racism. #myopiononly 😊
Can’t imagine how deranged from hate a mind has to be to make a child witness such a senseless act of violence as if it were a life lesson. It’s traumatic to witness. Her saying that word must have brought him back emotionally to that; and the slap that followed was his determination to not let that way of thinking persist past his father’s generation. That generational shift in perspective is his legacy, and one to be proud of.
That would actually be very possible, same time, same circle, same fight, same town that Malcolm's dad was killed in, and where Malcolm grew up before he moved to Massachusetts... It makes sense😮
@purplepatch7 and that there us the duality of some people. They can be talented, smart, and stand up for so many good things and still be and do not so good things like being a crappy husband and father. It's interesting.
In 1978, I was 7 years old, and my brother used that word. I told my mother and the house came down. I'm so thankful that she made that stand for decency and respect. It made a lifelong impression on me.
They need to stop teaching it or allowing it to permeate in their minds on their gaming consoles..living in their virtual world and not really meeting people face to face who come from diverse backgrounds.
..... and yet people who say "the N word" lightly are supposedly the role models who keep this word alive saying" we are taking back ownership of the word" Bloody ridiculous reasoning - they should try expanding their vocabulary

I'll never understand why so many black people call each other by this word. To me, it's the most vile word you could ever say to someone.. I wish it would just cease to exist, but obviously, that's never going to happen as long as people use it as a word to call their friends.. I'll never understand it. I've heard people say it's a way to take their Power back, but again, makes no sense to me. You're just calling each other by a word that even if you don't realize it has a psychological effect on you. Why not call each other something else besides that damn word? It's not a compliment, nothing good about it. Even it's literal meaning is saying someone is unintelligent..
I didn’t know about racism until they taught me about it in elementary & middle school, and I was soooo confused. It made no sense because it conflicted with everything I was taught in Sunday School and what I read in the Bible. In the end I went with “God doesn’t make mistakes, people do” and “God said love everybody, judge nobody”. I’m 43 and those statements still stand. 😊❤
God never said love everybody, judge nobody! The important part is that we shouldn't judge hypocritically. This means that we can call out racism if/when we see it and hold people accountable for their actions. But if we have flawed thinking ourselves, we should fix our mindset before criticizing anyone else! We can't judge whether or not someone will go to heaven. But we can call out sinful behaviour, as long as we do it right (not with a prideful/holier than thou attitude).
We teach love in our family and teach our children to respect others and hopefully don't take it to heart if they get treated a certain way . I didn't realize how bad racism was in our country until my granddaughter was born 18 years ago ( she is mixed race ) MY PRIDE & JOY !! I sometimes can't believe the things peoplesay to her especially a child !! She is an amazing child too , 4.0 GPA and was accepted to ECU in NC , I'm so proud !

I live in Australia and had to end a friendship due to the way a person and his family were, towards our First Nations People. My brother's father is First Nation, while I had to accept some racism to a point tho I didn't know it was actually that... I was only taught as an Australian about African Americas, that filthy word and it's attachments, to me.... And how I was taught in the 90s....we weren't racist, those who used THAT word were. The ones who use the word Koon in my country, as a very similar slur were never ever brought up, it was never ever told to me it was a racist term, as soon as I was told, I had a sibling coming, his father actually sat down with me and talked to me about how people see him differently, and will see my brother differently... That the K word I said, was often used to him, his family and will be use towards my brother.... Simply cos he happens to be First Nation. And I don't say happens as if it some dumb random fluke. I mean it as in, he simply is. He in no way could or can change his self, any more then his father could. The thought to me, that my sibling who was about to be here, a little baby who'd never done anything could be hated, seen as less or treated as so, hurt. It made me look at the 3 other First Nation children in my school differently as... My peers were being... Mean cos these kids were not... White? I remember asking his father, but you are just like me, why do people hate you? And his answer was: because they don't see me as the same people as you, I'm less. This man to me, wasn't less, he was my step dad who stepped the fuck up for me and then some. I never ever thought because he was brown, not totally black like the African Americans I'd been taught about... That he was seen as them until he had to tell me and honestly, really fucking changed my view of the world and those I considered my friends.
Jane Fonda was right in condemning wars waged by imperialist nations, and in believing that nations have the right to determine what vision of society they would like to pursue.
Henry Fonda’s portrayal of the hold out juror in the movie “12 Angry Men” comes to mind, as he was more interested in the truth than focused on the boy’s ethnicity and background.
@@ChiefJayBinns America doesn't hang Black people in 2024. There is no longer any institutional racism. Don't condemn a country when the problem now rests with fringe individuals. It's when we're the closest to true equality that they try and divide us. And they do it by pitting American citizens against one another in a battle of meaningless ideologies. We should all be working together for the betterment of the country and its people. This means condemning racism when we see it... but not seeing racism in everything.
We need videos like that to mitigate the risk that people rewrite the story, a core danger nowadays with the social media and unverified opinions circulating left and right. We have a very important duty to tell the history as it was not as we wish it was or how we feel more comfortable.

I said it once to a friend talking about a song and I asked my mom about the word. Why do I have to apologize for that? Nope
@@adrienneallen2277so what? It was about owing what she said and why her father thought her not to say it again. If you don’t knew it was a derogatory word against black people then there is no issue.
This is why it’s so important for people that are still alive and witnessed these atrocities firsthand to continue talking about this. I’m seeing the rewriting of history right before our eyes and people are trying to pretend like racism, and this type of stuff did not happen. Never forget!
History is important. Knowing where we as humans went wrong is important so we don’t repeat mistakes long after the effects of those mistakes stop being truly felt. I’m only thirty and it boggles my mind how much they’ve been denying racism is still a thing. I know someone who has repeatedly told me racism doesn’t exist anymore and it pisses me off every time. Just because they don’t feel it directed at them doesn’t mean it’s gone.

If you live in the US, by the time you’re 11 years old you’re aware.. especially if you attend public school. There’s no way you heard nothing at home either on tv or family. Never watched an episode of All in the Family? Jefferson’s? Any tv at all? It’s everywhere.
And it's not just racist comments against black (edited for the deliberately fragile). I remember when my daughters were younger and they had a chinese friend and they were all giggling and they used a chinese slur. I told them similar "don't you ever say that again'. They replied that the chinese girl was ok with it and used it herself, but I didn't care. It is not ok, and I didn't want to hear any of them use it.

My brother taught me about racism. Grew up in the 90’s, my brother is 10 years older then me, he loved hip hop and he was getting ready one day, I was probably 5 years old and he was listening to a heavy worded song where the N word was used multiple times, I asked him what that word is and said it out loud, he immediately stopped what he was doing, stopped the music and grabbed me, told me to never say that word again, and tried to explain to me what people of colour have gone through, not just black people but other races as well. He was so adamant and didn’t break eye contact with me at all. It had a huge impact on me. I know exactly where Jane is coming from

Same I said it once in the form of (door bell ditch) I was young and ignorant I ran up out of breath with some friends. She asked “what are y’all doing “ I said (THAT WORD knocking). My mom smacked me so hard I flipped over our short rock wall onto my face in front of ALL my friends. She let me know right then and there THAT IS NOT A WORD THAT WILL (EVER AND I MEAN EVER TOLERATED) she later told me lots of stories about how her parents hurt her and kicked her out a lot from having friends and dating different people of different shades . She stood her ground moved out graduated alone and raised us to know better. Please educate your children all about love.💕
Wow ..... I actually felt that slap. I know people would say she shouldn't have slapped you, but talked you through it but slapping (not punching and beating) was how good parent shocked the shit out of you (PS I have never been slapped by my parents because my mom just had to LOOK at me 😀
This lady has used her platform to speak on many injustices in this world Kudos
@debbiebasche5337 she was against an unjust war that killed too many innocents, including US soldiers. She was neither against soldiers nor against veterans, whom the US ignored once they came back broken.
@debbiebasche5337
Yes, I watched that lousy war play out on my television every night. It wasn't a necessary war, fought for defense of American freedoms. It did accomplish two things:
1. It made corporations & stockholders wealthier.
2. It killed many, many people... for no good reason.
After the Vietnam War, the politicians became clever. They no longer allow the raw horrors of war to be shown on nightly news. It makes for fewer reactions from the citizen majority.

Henry Fonda was for civil rights. I knew that as a teenager. My mother would not let us watch movies or shows with racist people. We were allowed to watch Carroll O’Conner because he okayed a racist Archie Bunker but he was for civil rights he was walking in marches. But the Fonda family has always let it be known whose side there were on and it was never racist.
❤
My grandmother loved TV as she never had one as a child or teen. She wouldn't leave Archie B show on and back then, channels were limited.
Republicans are 100% against slavery.
I THOUGHT ARCHIE BUNKER WAS SUPPOSED TO A CARICATURE OF A RACISTS. LIKE THE PURPOSE OF HIS SHOW WAS TO SHOW HOW FOOLISH RACIST LOOK?
same with Virgil Frye, Soilel Moon beFrye late father. One of the first white celebs to speak opening and for civil rights at the time. Could another reason why she was chosen for the Proud family.
I like Jane Fonda...shes always been vocal about injustices ..not to mention she stays fly.
Right. I've always loved her.
Both my grandpa and my dad had black best friends. In a small town it was rare and people starred but they never cared. They loved and helped their friends until the day they died. Im so grateful to be raised by real men who showed us there's no difference between us. ❤
.... and in small towns, the opportunity to KNOW someone without all the bullshit rhetoric was what allowed your grandpa and your dad to just have the friends they did ... no politics involved at pre-school! TBH I sometimes think that large groups of humans are their own worst enemy - often mobs waiting to stomp on others and in cities, you may not see that sense of kindness and community that you do in a small town village or on an island.
That whack is what we expected from parents of past generations in order to right the wrongs of the past for _all_ of us today. We were supposed to progress, but unfortunately…

I respect this woman so much as well as her father. Henry Fonda, Betty White and Danny Thomas ( to name a few) grew up in a time of racism and chose to love their brothers from another mother. So when people make excuses for old racist it makes me sick. Racism is a choice not a disease.

@Margriet101 whatever works on my opinion.
Yep. I think I was 6 when I said “ the word” and my mom was a shade of mad I never saw before. She screamed at me and washed my mouth out with soap. A few months later we are walking with thousands of white, black, brown souls to show strength in numbers for the little girls in Selma.( I think it was 1962). I then understood why my Mom was so upset with me. She tricked the school district into dissolving segregation : the bus route could no longer ignore one area of the town, and had to be re-routed to include me, now living with a black family( family friends). I have fond memories of being loved, spoiled with good food, and embracing Gospel music that thundered thru the church. I still remember the verses, which sound better when you are stomping your feet and clapping your hands! 🙏
Wait, you had to live with a black family? Do tell.
I'd like to know more details about how she tricked an entire school district. Interesting...
My Mom never allow her children to use the "N" word. 'Til this Day, my Sisters and Brother DON'T SAY THAT WORD! TIL THIS DAY, I HAVE RESPECT FOR MY MOTHER BECAUSE OF THAT. SHE TAUGHT US SOOOOOO MUCH. SHE WAS JAMAICAN! A TRUE JAMAICAN WOMAN.
Wow. Impactful. I appreciate her honesty and willingness to share this story.
Good for Henry Fonda for having a strong mind and not following the path of his environment.
⁶666⁶vu
I wouldn't say a strong mind, I'd say he had a sensitive one, because he cared.
I'd say he's actually a despicable one because he thought violence with the pathway to correction with his child. It's shocked me how many people have congratulated this man's actions, condoning slapping someone across the face all in the name of teaching his child not to be racist, when she was clearly ignorant of the words meaning. Could that not have been learnt by words instead? Boggles my mind how accepted and common place the lack of self control in parenting is.
@@catsplat877lol. You're one of those, aren't you? There's a difference between abuse and punishment.
@@melissamercado2620 yes I am proudly 'one of those' who sees it completely unnecessary to SLAP people, let a lone a child across the face. To me this is not a measured approach and falls outside the scope of discipline.
Clearly you believe that if a child doesn't know something due to lack of education, you believe the first point of action is to physically 'discipline' them for not knowing and then educate? No wonder we live in world that shows little love and respect towards each other. It starts in the home, with parents being our first role models and teachers.
she wants to cry...this hurts her soo damn bad....
I cried so I can imagine a little boy seeing a horrific murder.
That slap must’ve hurt :/
it hurt the black man worse ngl
@@AlexanderTheGraypeit’s not just because it “hurt” but it’s the memory and teaching he left her the reason it made the lady emotional with pride of who her father was. I say this because my mother also recalls memories about her father leaving her knowledge about life even though he hit her with a belt like people did back then to their children, she recalls those memories with pride because she knows it was for her own good( like no to stealing, etc) btw he was a loving father too who deeply cared about his family and was affectionate to them as well. I don’t want people to get the wrong impression.
She is an actress, and this story is cap.
I really enjoyed this interview and I love Jane Fonda! I always loved Henry Fonda and have watched a lot of his movies. Thank you for sharing this Kerry! People need to know about racism. #myopiononly 😊
Can’t imagine how deranged from hate a mind has to be to make a child witness such a senseless act of violence as if it were a life lesson.
It’s traumatic to witness. Her saying that word must have brought him back emotionally to that; and the slap that followed was his determination to not let that way of thinking persist past his father’s generation. That generational shift in perspective is his legacy, and one to be proud of.

In 1978, I was 7 years old, and my brother used that word. I told my mother and the house came down. I'm so thankful that she made that stand for decency and respect. It made a lifelong impression on me.
Parents don't have to allow their kids to be racist.
They need to stop teaching it or allowing it to permeate in their minds on their gaming consoles..living in their virtual world and not really meeting people face to face who come from diverse backgrounds.

I'll never understand why so many black people call each other by this word. To me, it's the most vile word you could ever say to someone.. I wish it would just cease to exist, but obviously, that's never going to happen as long as people use it as a word to call their friends.. I'll never understand it. I've heard people say it's a way to take their Power back, but again, makes no sense to me. You're just calling each other by a word that even if you don't realize it has a psychological effect on you. Why not call each other something else besides that damn word? It's not a compliment, nothing good about it. Even it's literal meaning is saying someone is unintelligent..
We wasn't allowed to use that word ever, our ancestors were murdered with that word!
I didn’t know about racism until they taught me about it in elementary & middle school, and I was soooo confused. It made no sense because it conflicted with everything I was taught in Sunday School and what I read in the Bible. In the end I went with “God doesn’t make mistakes, people do” and “God said love everybody, judge nobody”. I’m 43 and those statements still stand. 😊❤
Wow! Wonderfully said!
Amen!!! ❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤🙏🙏👍
God was always in your heart. Purely.
God never said love everybody, judge nobody! The important part is that we shouldn't judge hypocritically. This means that we can call out racism if/when we see it and hold people accountable for their actions. But if we have flawed thinking ourselves, we should fix our mindset before criticizing anyone else! We can't judge whether or not someone will go to heaven. But we can call out sinful behaviour, as long as we do it right (not with a prideful/holier than thou attitude).
Always loved watchn JaneFonda so Thanx again Kerri 4 posting, enhanced my appreciation for the Fondas🖤

I live in Australia and had to end a friendship due to the way a person and his family were, towards our First Nations People. My brother's father is First Nation, while I had to accept some racism to a point tho I didn't know it was actually that... I was only taught as an Australian about African Americas, that filthy word and it's attachments, to me.... And how I was taught in the 90s....we weren't racist, those who used THAT word were. The ones who use the word Koon in my country, as a very similar slur were never ever brought up, it was never ever told to me it was a racist term, as soon as I was told, I had a sibling coming, his father actually sat down with me and talked to me about how people see him differently, and will see my brother differently... That the K word I said, was often used to him, his family and will be use towards my brother.... Simply cos he happens to be First Nation.
And I don't say happens as if it some dumb random fluke. I mean it as in, he simply is. He in no way could or can change his self, any more then his father could.
The thought to me, that my sibling who was about to be here, a little baby who'd never done anything could be hated, seen as less or treated as so, hurt. It made me look at the 3 other First Nation children in my school differently as... My peers were being... Mean cos these kids were not... White?
I remember asking his father, but you are just like me, why do people hate you? And his answer was: because they don't see me as the same people as you, I'm less. This man to me, wasn't less, he was my step dad who stepped the fuck up for me and then some.
I never ever thought because he was brown, not totally black like the African Americans I'd been taught about... That he was seen as them until he had to tell me and honestly, really fucking changed my view of the world and those I considered my friends.

We never talked like that when I grew up in my family of 8 children ever and never did in our lives..
Thank u Jane for sharing this. Conversations like these make u so amazing and human
So true, and it also makes some people very uncomfortable. The ones that wants to pretend that racism doesn’t exist. The Candice Owens of this world. Thank you Jane, you go girl.
I LOVE THAT SHE SAID A "BLACK" MAN AND NOT AFRICAN AMERICAN.
❤❤ solid.
I can always tell when whites are genuine allies when they call us black. They're comfortable. Not forced and fake.
WE'RE NOT ALL EVEN FROM AFRICA.
We aren't black either,some white man throws a title,y'all accept it,we are indigenous people of the world.
My brother taught me about racism.
Grew up in the 90’s, my brother is 10 years older then me, he loved hip hop and he was getting ready one day, I was probably 5 years old and he was listening to a heavy worded song where the N word was used multiple times, I asked him what that word is and said it out loud, he immediately stopped what he was doing, stopped the music and grabbed me, told me to never say that word again, and tried to explain to me what people of colour have gone through, not just black people but other races as well. He was so adamant and didn’t break eye contact with me at all. It had a huge impact on me.
I know exactly where Jane is coming from
I’m black and I don’t even use that word 🤘🏽🤘🏽No race should ever ever say any bad word about another race period 🫤🫤
I agree. That word is not used in A…. except maybe in the Deep South of W…AF.
