- The speakers are J. Samuel Williams and his wife. He is a minister from Farmville Virginia-Prince Edward County. They were interviewed in 1989 about their remembrances from the 1950s and 1960s. #virginiahistory #africanamerican #civilrights

the value of your films transcends historic importance. There are lessons to be learned in every one of them. The truth is that while social environment changes , human behaviour rarely does.
Thanks Mr Hoffman, I believe this CZcams channel is a wonderfully important thing for me, I hope this channel grows exponentially as it rightly should.
I am hoping that it grows as well. Thank you.

I highly recommend Malcolm Gladwell’s “revisionist history” podcast about Brown vs. the board of education. It’s called Miss Buchanan’s period of adjustment.
All your clips should be compiled in a documentary
As much as the people reminisce on how well black neighborhoods were doing prior to integration, there was a reason people left these neighborhoods. I wonder what that reason is. As for the people who did leave, how did they actually feel about their neighborhoods? Did they love it or were they simply forced to be there?
No it was brainwashing, you were taught that your way of living was inferior so you should not be there. It was racism plain and simple.
It was the grass is greener lie. The people were bewitched by a culture that was foreign from their own.
@@archivalfootage1 so why not go back into their old neighborhoods and communities?
@@esonon5210Essentially they did heard of the Hood or Ghetto however void of Unity this modern time around
@@esonon5210the reality is the good black people have the bad black people and bad white people working against them in those days. This is something that must be understood as well as the government.
I read a book a couple of years ago about the black schools I think in New York City or Washington, DC. There was a story about the black high school Dunbar High School, founded in 1870. It had decades of tradition and one of those traditions was to admonish the students to do what we call "act white" if they wanted to succeed in life despite the fact they were living under Jim Crow well into the 20th century. However, this all changed after the mid 60's and students were no longer encouraged to act white, but to do their own thing along with the rest of society. The point they were making was there was so much animosity and dissension between the older graduates who "acted white" and the more recent graduates that just the mention of the word "Dunbar" at a reunion was to create such a hostile atmosphere that no more discussion could take place. There was so much resentment toward the old ideas that the beautiful early 1900's building was demolish and replaced with a brutalist monument to modern sensibilities.
Interesting. That highschool is located in DC
@@TheCastedone Yes, it is, I knew it was in one or the other.
The man has the tonality of Dr. King and look like an older version of Alvin from the Cosby Show.
I was thinking the same thing 🤔💭
RIGHT a older darker Elvin LOL
Trade schools in the 50s were so easy to apply to also there were plenty alot of apprentice jobs and unions, now trade schools are expensive expensive and require alot of hours for some trades and and expensive books and courses people are more greedy now.
Trade schools are not hard to get into the first time!
However everything is expensive there!!
Again, another good history lesson. I hope more people watch this video.
Just because one race is having its own schools does not mean that the school is necessarily inferior. It's a matter of culture that determines the schools quality. There are institutional issues surrounding underperforming minority schools, but that by itself does not explain the phenomenon.

Those days was best days for African Americans ,back then a lot of African Americans own banks.
The problem with black society is they only see themselves winning if they are a CEO, or at the very top of whatever period. Money doesn’t make people happy.
Now the only value is do well on your standardized test.
He reminds of an old Jaylen Brown
And I believe God set blacks free. When in 1966 four blacks inter-grated
I found them delightful. Their parents taught values like us. No itibken. It's different oriole in blacks like white ms nit all sane that I'd not associate with. Cokes down to actions, integrity, values and you choose your associates based on your own castes. I think blacks do exact same
Nice video that made me think about my upbringing.
We need this
I ask please have as many as possible 70's years of age and up with different topics speaking about before and the first 10 years of segregation and as they spoke on farming some who knows stories of those who had did good with farming and acres of land please I will subscribe if so and share share share
Integration SCREWED the black community and identity! I wish I of knew the days to which he speaks.
Did you not hear what the lady had said..due to the lack of investment from abroad and internally towards the black culture in America they were then forced into working for peanuts in the white established communities that ultimately returned the cycle of progressing inequalities to THIER own detrement..still the same..2023
Look at how liberal the schools are....shows you how m,much value they teach...bring jesus back
Why is Jesus the only thing that is to be valued.....
@@jermen5137 Societal roles is a key element in religion, that is wildly underappreciated by Democrats. Black people as a group in totality, have never excelled in academia. Manual labor jobs made up the vast majority of jobs in black history prior to the slave trade. Allow the best of us to get into the Universities, but that shouldn't be a goal for majority of most black Americans. He hit the bail with skilled trades. When integration took it's affects, skilled trades were taken out of schools. That wasn't a coincidence.
Excellent inciteful interview.
Translation: Excellent, insightful interview.
I wish African Americans would have went to the islands instead like aruba, st marteen etc and help build those places up
Still the same story today but it's about the rich and poor now
No it’s not.. just work hard n u will get ahead.. don’t commit crime
@@TheSands83 shut up! You just be White to even say that. I’m sure that works for you.
@@TheSands83 but Jew funded government leaders have committed crimes from clition to Pedo Joe all good friends with Epstein 🤷🏼♂️
Racism still alive and well race war in class war two different things
Can't stand old america....the way they disrespectful african americans makes me so sick to my stomach :( jesus loves you always.
😥
That’s why I wanna get tf out of this country
We’ll leave then
The title clearly implies that integration brought an end to black students learning values. If that racist claptrap is not what he intended, Hoffman should explain why he chose a title which so poorly describes what those interviewed had to say.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts but I beg to disagree. The title indicates a part of what the speaker said. And the wonderful speaker he was. But the purpose of the title on CZcams is to attract the audience who then watches. And so far at least, CZcams analytics indicate that more than 50 percent of the audience is watching the entire interview. So I would call it a successful title, at least for now. But please suggest other ones as I am always open to change.

If you really think it's a bad title ask yourself if post-""integration"" (if you really think there is a complete healthy racial integration in America) and predominantly black schools are teaching their students adaptability, respect for black culture AND others cultures, and to live beyond where their feet are
Mr. Hoffman I’ve said this before but your archive is invaluable and frequently a Godsend when trying to communicate a factual point!
