- The speaker is Dr. Bernard Anderson. Professor. Author. Corporate executive. I interviewed him in 1989 An estimate questions about the 1950s and 1960s when he was growing up. He was a witness to that time and articulate analyst looked at culture, individual experiences, and the big picture. I will be posting several comments by Dr. Anderson. #1950s #civilrights #bernardanderson

September 2020, how true this still is; I was 7 when this interview occurred, I am now 38 and this is very much relevant today.
@GTFOH Would you care to elaborate further on that comment.
@GTFOH So you're saying that this man's historical testimony is a sham or fallacy, in regards to police brutality and oppression of inner city communities, especially during the 50's and 60's up to our present day?
@GTFOH Then if you feel that strongly about it, why put in your petulant comments, much less expose yourself to what he has to say? At the end of the day it's neither here or there.
@GTFOH Your comment is a total and utter nonsense, white officer are over represented in black communities, Only about 12 percent of the population in Prince George’s County, Md., is white, but roughly 38 percent of the police in various departments in the county are white - making the police force more than three times as white. Just under 10 percent of Bronx residents are white, so the 33 percent of white police from various agencies is also three times as high. Philadelphia has a greater imbalance, with one-third of the population white but 59 percent white police. Cook County around Chicago has 42 percent white residents but 55 percent white police. Racism is alive and kicking, just as it did in the past, the difference is there is a camera to show their evil deeds.
Phenomenal interview. I got a tangible sense of the time he lived through and the trends he witnessed from his eloquent and expansive description. Thanks for the share, I heartily appreciate the sparse interview style; no need for question or interjection
Wow I'm from Chicago and didn't know Martin Luther King marched there these are very educational
MLK and family had an apartment there as well.
By turning his attention to the north he exposed the hypocrisy and duplicitous character of the whites there, who unfairly criticized him for trying to make changes even though to them everything was racially adequate.
The place that he marched through, Marquette Park, eventually became the headquarters for the National Socialist Party of America, a Neo-Nazi organization. Many of the marchers that harassed and attacked King and his supporters when he marched through Marquette Park displayed swastikas and Confederate flags. I think this was on August 5, 1966.
I believe that’s where he got hit with a rock
These are some great points, the cops and public jobs in the north were almost exclusively part of the patronage machine.
It must have taken a huge toll on him to keep calm when lecturing or talking about this stuff.
Godlike
Just look into those eyes of his...and you'll see that there's way more to what he's sharing than his words are expressing.👀
“Those who have accomplished the greatest results are those who never grow excited or lose self-control, but are always calm, self-possessed, patient, and polite.”
― Booker T. Washington
I love listening to this man because I was born in Philadelphia and was old enough to know that these things were going on even though I was protected where I lived by my grandmother, mother and uncles. I knew it was happening but it did not adversely affect us.
Me too. I never knew that about Cecile b moore.
Gotta remember that there was an ideological split during the 60’s. Malcolm”s “By any means necessary” (the rebellion of Haiti for instance) vs King’s nonviolent approach (Gandhi’s model in India). They were amicable towards each other recognizing that the goal was the same and forcing the power structures hand to make sure blood didn’t run in the streets. The FBI was infiltrating both men’s groups and trying to pit one against the other and within their own ranks. I was a teenager during these times and HATED the King model! As a believer in and follower of Yeshua I now realize that true freedom starts spiritually and is the only way to breaking the shackles.
Thank you very much for uploading these. All your interviews are very insightful and interesting.
He is spot on, the blacks I encountered in 63-64 while in segregated Arkansas were good country folk and did not partake in rioting compared to northern blacks. You can not help but thank MLK for his leadership, he had the back bone and courage but we knew he would pay the ultimate price. I remember the news of his passing and saw first hand the destruction of Newark, NJ. God bless MLK.
I was a black person in segregated Arkansas in 63-64, and I noticed that you totally glossed over how white ppl treated us good country folk. But you know, "character."
You call a spade a spade, and the truth the truth, and if what he said wasnt the truth then i dont want the truth. Everything he said STILL applies to this day
Thanks for post. Love the education.
FUCK, I could listen to 10 more hours of this guy. Maybe 20.
These interviews with Dr Anderson were conducted, I'd guess, in the 80s or 90s. I'm surprised I had never heard of him before because his analyses of the civil rights era and post-WW2 America are so well-informed, understood, insightful, and intelligently articulated. The set of interviews with him are highly informative and in many ways enlightening, providing insights I had not heard before. His perspective and intellect in some ways reminds of Thomas Sowell, who I hold in the highest esteem. There is much that can be learned even today from listening to this man speak about that era of America. It provides background depth for understanding (at least to certain extent) the spectacles currently commanding our attention - even though the America of the 21st century is starkly different from 1950s/60s America. Greatly appreciate that Mr Hoffman brought him to our attention.
Dr Anderson’s statements are so correct. Iam a believer in who was running the city’s/states government at time. That’s about when welfare systems came into being, white black peoples needed jobs
America would be a much shitter place without Great Society programs.
Thank you u tube for this channel
I always am amazed by these videos ... how do you come across them?
I made them.

11:04 being from Memphis I can tell you first hand man in order for us to be none violent you got to be none violent to us 💯💯💯💯💯 you get what you give in Memphis till this very day 🤞🏾
That’s not how non violence works man.
To be honest, the 1960's was a decade of turmoil in the United States; with protests for Civil Rights and against the Vietnam War dominating the headlines.
@TheGlobalish Unfortunately.
Actually, I would say Fortunately.
2020 still the same!
Thank you!
I can totally believe this.
Question do you think liberals/democratic beliefs have anything to do with actions too. I think your so correct I was very young during this period
so... this is why I don't watch television and expect the truth, David.... the same thing happened in the Peace movement.. I was mostly in Europe during the civil rights stuff... but got back in time to watch Dr King walk across the bridge from Arlington into Washington DC to deliver the I have a Dream speech... I was 10.. my mom took me... the woman who took care of me after school went too... we held hands with people in the front less than 100 feet from the bridge...
I have a dream too
We are
One Planet One People!
ad Infinitum
we are... brothers and sisters... all around the World 🌎🌍
Peace ✌️ y'all
please
we sang
We Shall Overcome
we shall... no worries
Podemos
we can
actually I lived in Anniston, Alabama when a young woman named Rosa Parks decided to sit in the first available seat on the bus... blessings on her and her family forever ♾️
she's a personal hero of mine
the use of force and coercion is...
not ok
if I come over to you and demand that you jump up and down... hand over your stuff... or anything else... it's not ok
***
it doesn't matter how many people do the demand...
you cannot get good results from doing something wrong
this works in both directions, y'all... those guys over there are our brothers and sisters... even if they don't have the same ideas... or whatever...
our physical characteristics are given to us in the DNA.. DNA can change over Time to adapt to the environment... RNA is passed unchanged from one generation to the next by our mothers... this means your mother's RNA is... pretty much, exactly like my mother's RNA...
it's not hippy dippy bullshit
we really are brothers and sisters... pretty much... whether ya like it... or not
I actually like it
a lot
Nothing like first hands experience to paint a vivid picture. Excellent 4 our psyche as Nubians/blks. Really appreciated.
So true
The very definition of a "timely" analysis.
Unfortunately, all the 'time' in the U.S.
There have been black mayors in non predominantly black cities: San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle (1990-1997), Menlo Park (1980's)
That’s right.
This is true today
They burned it all down in the North. If that’s what you call organizing then you reap what you sow.
Thus is very telling in 2020/7/9
And up to today...? Not much change, it seems. Some! Yes, some...which is some good!

(You have the patience of Job!)
You can't fix the racism problem in police when the institution of police is controlled by the extremist elements within the FOP. I don't believe in personal resentment or retaliation against individuals just because they are police officers. We need to change the whole criminal justice system to one of Restorative Justice. Within that new system, policing would be done as needed, not overly done to impose ethnic cleansing and economic exploitation.
I lived during the 1968 Milwaukee Riots, and my folks sent me down to visit my aunt in Florida so that I would be safe if the Blacks should come to our white neighborhood.

@@DavidHoffmanFilmmaker understood, but I am deeply inspired by your work. Thank you for sharing
This guy is unreal, we burned down our own neighborhoods and for this clown to say it was done in a way of hopefulness is ridiculous. Many of those area never did recover, some of which were black owned bushiness.
How did CZcams steer you both here I wonder?
@Cheese Doodle nyggah amen
