I hate when people are racists
You can’t help it. Sadly racism has been around forever. There will always be racist people, and we can’t change that.
These stories of White and Black aren’t racist things. The news is just making sound like a racist thing so the government can have more control over us people.

"We are all one race and its called the human race" wow..💕
@@TYKO_KYTO ALL these people did something wrong one way or another. Let me document them.
Philando Castile - Was armed at a traffic stop, had a permit, however, said it in a confusing way and did such an action the officer believed he was pulling the weapon out (which is plausible considering the evidence). The officer shot him in fear for his life. He also did not comply to open his hand to show the officer he's not gonna hurt him.
Akai Gurley - This is a man who didn't do anything wrong per se, however, the shooting was an accident. The area they were in is notorious for danger and violence, with 2 homicides there in the last week at the time. Training tells officers to take caution in vertical areas, especially ones like this. The officer had his flashlight out and after hearing a noise, accidentally (Really an accident, muscle movements tensley squeezed the trigger just enough) pulled the trigger, sending a bullet at the wall which ricocheted and hit Akai in the chest. He was not aimed at by the cop as depicted in the video, instead accidentally shot by him. The officer didn't even see Akai.
Tamir Rice - Took orange cap off toy gun that symbolizes it was a fake gun, ran around pointing at people and threatening to shoot. He raised the handgun (fake) at the police, and they rightfully believed he was about to shoot them. They open fired on Tamir in self-defense.
Rayshard Brooks - Perhaps the most guilty on this list, no clue why Storybooth included him. Rayshard (who I'm gonna be calling Ray) was asleep in his car in a Wendy's drive-through, clogging the line-up. Police did a breathalyzer test which proved he had drunk over legal amounts. The officers were cooperative and put him in handcuffs, at which he struggled out, grabbed a taser from an officer, shot him with it, and ran. He shot the officers again and again with it and one officer ended up seriously shocked. Ray was then shot, another act of self-defense by police.
Stephon Clark - Police in the area were searching for a criminal. Stephon did not put his hands up when asked to, and the police suspected him. He raised his phone and the police thought it was a gun. Althought not confirmed, it is also possible he did vandalize things in the area.
Michael Brown - Shot by police after engaging in a struggle with them that could've been prevented if Michael cooperated. He was a suspect of a nearby robbery.
George Floyd - Paid with fake money, struggled against police as they tried to put him in handcuffs. They also found drugs in his car. They pinned him down and accidentally killed him. In the past, George had also done more crimes including robbing a pregnant woman with a gun.
Sorry but I can't do every name at the end either. I might edit this in the future. Blue Lives Matter, people.
@@martiantripod794 I would like some proof of any of this happening wasn't made up by you or the media. I also have to say that fake money isn't an arrestable offense, all you do is report it and then you can decide the ban the person from coming back. He probably resisted becuase he was scared and becuase what the cops were doing was ILLEGAL. And you say the killing of George yet the officer held his knee on Georges neck for 9 MINUTES, people yelled fir the officer to stop becuase George become in responsive but it was to late, 9 minutes of torture can't happen by mistake. (Edit) also you can't arrwst somebody for crimes they already went for hail2 for in the past, if you commited a crime 13 YEARS ago that doesn't give officers the right to kill you for the crime you already did time for.
@@randomslayer9018 All the sources are in the public domain. You can go and find them in police reports, articles, more because I’m not linking everything. Search up the live George Floyd video for his proof but that’s all I’m saying right now. You’re a big boy/girl. Do your own research.
@@martiantripod794 you know even if these poor people did something wrong most of them weren't that bad and it was worth shooting them, because after all why do the court and prison exist? Also BTW this was a nice comment saying how all humans are equal you didn't have to ruin that
Honestly, I love how storybooth helps children raise their voices and how they give them a chance to express themselves. This video made me feel so many emotions. I was happy, I was sad, and I was moved. Storybooth thank you for just spreading the message and being another positive impact on people. Please don’t ever stop doing what your doing. The injustice in this world must be stopped but we have raise our voices and fight hand in hand and do whatever it takes to stop racism. We are all people here. No one deserves to die because of the color of their skin. Do something rather than nothing. Black Lives Matter. Thank you once again storybooth.❤️

Story booth is litterally the only animated story channel that has actual *logic*
*Other* animated story channels: *"My grandpa's pet's auntie's great grandmother's future son's second cousin's got me pregnant!"* **tells a completely different story to what the title says** (and the people in the animations are either white or lightskin - not saying it's bad to be either of those skin colours, just saying other animated story channels need more diversity by using a range of skin colours, it's not that hard, if you got colour white then you got colour black then mix some other colours to get black/white/brown/yellow/orange - and the animations are crap)

Reid G lmao but first we’d need to address the problem of people being systematically oppressed and killed for the color of their skin, which is the cause of all the riots, and also we need to remove the statues that show this country tolerated people who believed it was ok to own a person like a piece of property. And then no more scared kids, great thinking 🥰
@@melior5805 That isn't scaring kids the fact that people like YOU believe that the things that are oppressing young children of color is what scares them.The fact that they're is a reminder about the trauma they have face that is still up and is looked at as something as good is what scares kids.The fact that kids can loose they're life solely on skin color, religion,sex, and many more things is what scares them. The fact that they are told that they are people in this world that think they're life is useless and that they only are workers are what scares them. The sad fact of the matter is the the children are more aware of what is right and wrong then you are.
@@kellsbby You think he's going to listen to you after you called him ugly? If you genuinely wanted to convince him to take your stand, you would have done it in a civil manner. You've proved his point. The riots are making people who are already sympathetic to your cause drop it. It isn't right to hurt people that have done nothing wrong. Instead of rioting and looting stores, which makes black people look bad, we should have all protested peacefully.

But that doesn't mean you shoot on sight.
Even if the gun looked real, you saw a child right there & you should've tried to convince them to drop the gun.
I get it, maybe the cop had quick reflexes but he saw a child right there.
Cops know this, if you shoot randomly thinking they're a murderer you might end up killing an innocent person.

So burning buildings, vandalizing, and harming others is called a protest?
(I'm a black person myself) this "protest" is ruining the reputation of blacks lmfao.
The only thing I don't agree with is taking down the statues
Same but too bad they already done it to so many statues true only a small percentage were violent but at the same time a lot of statues were vandalized I find it funny how the news went quiet about so many heroic statues were torn down But the Breonna Taylor statue in Oakland California was vandalized it went viral now that is just being a hypocrite news are supposed to report on everything not feed us propaganda or lies but too bad that’s what the news is
Honestly though there is no harm in removing the statues but there is harm in allowing those statues to persist. Progress involves letting go of physical remnants as a show that we are more dedicated to our potential now and in the future as opposed to our past limitations. It is perfectly reasonable for a minority to be uneasy because they attend a school with a statue and building named after a racist/eugenicist. Why should we glorify folks with legacies contributed significantly to discriminatory attitudes and practices?
Realmisty._. Jo that’s a terrible comparison to make. You’re talking about a person who was the victim of police brutality at no fault of her own in comparison to someone with controversial legacy. It makes more sense for people to sympathize with a victim of violence and discrimination rather than a perpetrator of violence and discrimination. And the news reports on all of it, the Brianna Taylor vandalization just caused more outrage.
Jaster there’s a distinction between rioting and protesting for one. And just because a statue was removed in response to a protest/riot doesn’t mean that was the purpose of the protest/riot. The removal of statues has been a method of appeasement intended to distract us from continuing to pursue justice and equality
Jaster Jaster it’s like you didn’t even pay attention to my response. First of all, it’s not like regular protestors have the resources to physically remove statues themselves. The statues are being removed lawfully in response to protests against racial injustice as a means of appeasement and distraction from actual justice and equality. Furthermore the only statue of Lincoln I know to have been removed is the Emancipation Memorial which depicts a slave in a subordinate position and gives Lincoln more credit than he deserves for the end of slavery. Lincoln was hesitant to end slavery and even wanted to return black people to Africa. The memorial also downplayed the writers of slaves and abolitionists in black emancipation. Wanting to remove that memorial fires not imply black people would prefer slavery, and your understanding of emancipation is the prime example of why they wanted the memorial removed. That being said the end goal is actual equal treatment under the law and protesting is the only thing that seems to work for black folks according to history. The statues are a small but still notable aspect of the continued misrepresentation of our country’s racial history and the disrespect and dismissal of black lives and agency.
I just got chills when they showed gorge Floyd with his head shoved onto the road with a police man on top of him. To anyone who is racist I would like to ask why. What is the satisfaction of judging a group of people just because one person did something that you didn’t like.
Edit: thx for the likes but can y’all stop being rude to each other in my replies
Racism is unfortunately passed down by generations, and though it may be difficult to admit, it is all a result of how our minds work. All of your beliefs root from the experiences you've had in the past, and this leads to the assumption that because a certain person is bad, every one of "their type" must be the same.
@The Real Jake From State Farm Is Not Black I got chills from when Stephen Clark was shot 20 times in his own backyard when he was on the phone. And that Tamir Rice was 12 years old when he was shot and killed while playing with a toy gun and his killers have still not been arrested. He would have graduated this year if he was still here.
What did we even DO to these discriminative people to make them think the way they think?!
@The Real Jake From State Farm Is Not Black it isn't good hun. You spreading hate cause your lost and confused on this subject. Instead of spreading your stupidity on a video that's exposing America on its racism try educating yourself on this topic so next time you will have more than just bs to type.
Man, I’m crying 😭 I’m black and this just touched me in so many ways. God bless you Storybooth I love you guys and always have.
epic gamer I know and that sucks but still. Doesn’t mean we can’t try to combat it
I hear you man ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽
Storybooth is the only truthful channel I know. love you storybooth, thank you for supporting the movement!
I rlly wanna cry when I heard that they shot a 12yrs old for playing a toy gun 😭💔
Please look up things before you comment about them..
The police got a call about someone with a gun, the caller didnt know it was a toy, the police acted the right way, of course the kid shouldnt have been shot and killed but thats how they ware trained
Tophy no. gtfo now. he was a child. YOU DO NOT SHOOT SOMEONE FOR HAVING A GUN. REAL OR NOT. WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS. ITS IN THE CONSTITUTION. POLICE OFFICERS ARE NOT TRAINED TO KILL. ACAB BLM DEFUND THE POLICE
@@skrrt7093 ok we have the right to bear arms but with concealment you think running around with a gun in your hand is ok no and especially not a 12 year old I have not looked into this story yet so let me know if I made any mistake.
@@skrrt7093 and by the way cops have to shoot some the target if he or she has a gun in there hand and not putting it down you think a cop is going to let them selfes get shot?
It feel like we are living in the 50’s where Racism was around :(
No
It's nice that you put Rayshard Brook as your hero, drunk criminal that stole police's weapon.
Will u people pls SHUT UP with that hE wAs A cRiMnAl excuse no matter what there is NO EXCUSE FOR MURDER
@Not Anonymous yes we actually do care about black people so no need to be sarcastic
@@kennedyjackson6744 The guy tased a police officer. He had it coming to him.
@Joseph Warachi it’s called thinking before u act if I don’t see that u have an ACTUAL weapon there’s no reason to shoot and technically he didn’t SHOOT the officer with the taser he only POINTED it but either way it’s not a cops job for murder REGARDLESS of resisting or complying if your gonna take down someone with a weapon at least shoot in the leg or foot but not to death
I looooove this channel WAY more then my story animated where they r SO desperate for views that they r willing to make a story of their OWN!!!
Umaiza Ahmad Joiya I'd choose my story animated because at least it isn't propaganda for a terrorist organization that claims to be "anti-racist" even though it is the opposite.
Remember when everyone thought 2020 was going to be great? Yeah me to!
I thought the same thing. This was my Senior year of high school as well and it has been ruined by everything that jas happened in the last 6 months.
I had so much to look forward to this year :') It really sucks how things came to be

So one day I realized it had been a while since I had watched storybooth, so I I searched storybooth
I scrolled down looking for a good video to wa-
OMG ITS ANTHONY RAISE A GLASS TO FREEDOM AHHH I LOVE HAMILTON
Storybooth : *Real story and people*
Others : *My bestfriend turned into a rat*
Edit: this comment was just for fun, plus what i said was true :/ stop with the arguments
@@HBKnowItAll not wanting to be killed for the color of our skin isn't terrorism.....
@@HBKnowItAll Just because Native Americans need the same respect doesn't mean blacks don't.
@@HBKnowItAll Ummm... what? If BLM is "terrorist" than is Native Lives Matter not? I'm not trying to be rude, just want clarification.
There are going to be some people wearing red hats with white letters on them that are not going to like this video.
So I’m a racist because of my occupation I believe black life’s matter I also believe trump is a good man
@@whytho919 To be fair, I did say "some people wearing red hats with white letters," so I was not saying everyone. Also, I was not really calling them racist. I just said some of them will not like the video. I'm glad you like the video and its message, but to be honest, there are many Trump supporters that are not going to share your view on this. I don't know why you think Trump is a good man, but to each their own.
Why Tho Trump hasn’t said one word about black lives and what they’ve gone through and whenever he gets a question about he’s like “no no white people”
The "period" at the end tho 😂
This is making me cry.
I love how storybooth encouraging others because BLM✊🏽✊🏿✊🏾 STAND UP FOR VOICES THAT CAN'T BE HEARD 💯
「Icy_lemon Gacha」 why do you correct people when they say black lives matter? If you support that all lives matter then it shouldn’t be a problem to you, because if it is that’s a contradiction. Saying all lives matter silences the BLM movement, so please don’t say it.
Dogberry I know you’re like 9 and you don’t understand but until black lives matter , all lives cannot matter
Well, there’s this guy who shot a five year old from playing on his yard with his bike and they were neighbors.. the police didn’t bring him in because they didn’t want to seem racist bc he was black, I do support blm but he deserves to go into jail, you will find it all over Tik tok
RIP Conny 🕊
@Layla Condee i think he's talking about the raids, and not so peaceful protest recently
i NEVER cry and I cried...
Do one for Hispanic street vendors being attacked
‘Our skin is the reason we are guilty.’
Nobody should have to say this. Ever.
The color of your skin doesn’t make you bad it’s what’s in your head but people don’t realize that
Hatten Sie tatsächlich Zeit, dies zu übersetzen?
@@tysonturner1154 True
It doesn't.
Marxist organizations like BLM want u to believe that
