I just want to say thank you for sharing your reactions to things like this because I know that as a black man, there is some emotional labor involved in learning about these things and it is very big hearted of you to share that publicly for other people to witness and hopefully be educated by. That involves a degree of bravery and does not go unnoticed.
Thanks for the kind words â€ïž this was definitely one of the most difficult videos Iâve reacted to
@@kabirconsiders I'm not asking for a reaction but please check out CZcams channel called runaway slave just check it out and listen to some of the stories on there
Boston is notorious for racist remarks towards players from opposing teams. There are a lot of current and ex players who say itâs one of the worst places to play. With that being said, as someone who has been to Boston a few times, the majority of the people I met were welcoming, friendly and very helpful. But it would be naive to not acknowledge something that is well known in the sports world.
Its Ironic and disheartening considering Massachussetts and much of New England is some of the most progressive areas in the country.
@@jaredkrol3739 And donât get me wrong I wanted to make sure I highlighted the fact that my personal experiences have been very pleasant. But the stigma is there in the sports world and the players themselves hear it game in and game out. Myself being from Los Angeles knows not to categorize the whole state and/or city by a handful of people. So I look forward to exploring more, next Boston stop on my future trip is New Haven for some Apizza.
It's gotten a lot better here over the decades. Growing up in the 80's and 90's in Boston you would hear N bombs thrown around regularly and different races really didn't hang out together much at all. We all know how bad it was in Boston from the 70's and prior as the city constantly made national headlines, but these days it's really not bad at all. All the racists are closeted, and racism hasn't been openly accepted for a while.
@@user-lf7nf3kl7t thatâs good to hear, and I wanted to make sure I highlighted the fact that my personal experience was pleasant. The reason I made my initial comment was just because Kabir asked âwhatâs going on in Bostonâ. And as I said before, being from Los Angeles I known not to group the entire state.
I remember Mookie Betts stood up for his Red Sox teammate Adam Jones after a Red Sox fan called him the n word and threw peanuts at him, even LeBron said it himself Boston isn't his favorite place to play cause of the fans, every black NBA player that isn't a Celtic gets booed in Boston.
There was a player at my local college named Jack Trice, he was one of the first African American players to play college football. In 1922 he died in a game after being trampled. It is not known if this was intentional or not because of his race. He will not be forgotten as Iowa States stadium is now named Jack Trice stadium and there is a statue on stadium of him. I highly recommend looking into his story as it is very sad. You should also look up the Johnny Bright incident which is similar when a Black player in my city was attacked by the other team. Both very interesting situations to look into
Check out Willie OâRee. First African-Canadian player in the NHL. Heâs a great man and I had the distinct honor of meeting him at a local hockey game.
There have been a lot of good black Canadian hockey players in recent years, Jerome Iginla being the best. He could do pretty much everything except win face-offs. I'm a Canucks fan, but the way he played and the respect he showed for Trevor Linden earned my respect. It's a shame he never won a Cup. He earned it.
New England is arguably the most progressive region of the US but sadly Boston has a long history of racism when it comes to sports. They even targeted their own athletes like Bill Russell who led the Boston Celtics to numerous championships.
If its the most progressive, how cone there is the modt income inequality in the country?
The story of Jackie Robinson is amazing. The abuse lasted about two months, and came almost entirely from opposing teams, but not fans, who rallied to Jackie. Managers and players who attacked Jackie became pariahs, and the abuse died down -- though there was a death threat the FBI took seriously in Cincinnati in 1951. He was voted the #2 most admired man in America in a poll at the end of his 1947 rookie season, behind General Dwight D. Eisenhower, and ahead of General Douglas MacArthur, President Truman, and Bob Hope. One interesting fact: Jackie's older brother Mack Robinson finished 2nd in the 200-meter dash in the same Berlin Olympics mentioned in the video -- his time beat the world record, but he still finished behind Jesse Owens and settled for the silver medal! After his retirement, there was plenty of talk of Jackie entering politics -- he was a Republican -- and he did attend at least two Republican National Conventions and was close to New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller, but he decided against it. It's too bad. His interviews show how smart and engaged he was -- he makes today's crop of politicians sound like idiots.
The best biography is Arnold Rampersad's "Jackie Robinson: A Biography" (1997), while the man himself wrote his autobiography, "I Never Had It Made" (1972), plus there are plenty of video interviews with him after his retirement -- these latter are probably the best way to learn about Jackie Robinson.
I donât understand why people want to keep racism alive. Not only is it wrong but it is down right stupid because today it is whoever the scapegoat is now but tomorrow it could change and be you.
Racism will never go away. We are an instinctively tribal species. The only thing that keeps the distrust of others who are different away is knowledge and intellect. We must make a conscious effort to avoid it, some will never make the effort.
Ok. I recently watched a documentary about the 1936 Summer Olympics. The black athletes themselves said they were treated well in Germany, even by Hitler. They said they were treated worse in the US when they got back home. Ms Mojo's number one needs more research
4:27 In 2014 (literally two years after Ward's goal), PK Subban of the MontrĂ©al Canadiens (my team btw đ) scored a game winning goal against the Bruins. The Canadiens and Bruins have a *_98-year-old rivalry,_* and it seems some Bruins fans were living in the past cuz the N word was *_TRENDING_* on Boston Twitter after Subban's goal. Bruins players even had to apologize on their behalf. Subban was the reason I became a hockey fan and it was really disheartening to see people say such nasty things about him.
Edit: oh the video talks about it 10 sec later lol
Shocked to not see infamous statements by Jimmy the Greek and Marge Schott, and Ted Nolan and the Brockton youth hockey team getting harassed by people in separate occasions in Quebec. Also, recent incidents in eastern Europe could fill an entire 2-hour documentary.
Imus in the Morning was on radio in NYC in the 70s-2000s. His thang was to insult every minority and disability, and he mocked people. He was thrown off the air and onto Sirius Radio paid subscriptiion when he made the comment about the womens masketball team. My dad listened to him driving us to school growing up on Long Island. We hated it. Dad was like Archie Bunker. We lived in totally segregated society until I left foe college. Hola from the beach n Baja where I am retired
I still love when Jessie Owens won at the Olympics. Hitler must have been raging in his seat. lol
He refused to congratulate any metalist after he left when Cornelius Johnson won gold. He was then told if you can't congratulate all you can't congratulate any. So he stopped congratulating medalists.
Please react to the movie "42" next as some others have suggested. Great movie and shows how Robinson paved the way for other great black players to excel in Major League Baseball.
There's a good movie called "42" about Jackie Robinson joining the major leagues.
Sadly, Boston has a real history of racism. The Red Sox were the last major league baseball team to integrate. Bill Russell and other black players on the Celtics experienced a lot of racism in that city. And when the federal courts ordered the Boston schools to integrate, it was met with an angry backlash that wasn't much different from the response in Alabama and Mississippi.
The Shaq one doesn't bother me much because I remember the rush hour movies and all the funny scenes with Carter and Lee and the the no not me you scene lol.
I was reluctant to watch this. I get so angry and that dark cloud lingers. Injustice is a hard pill to swallow. I'm surprised they didn't mention the sports headline in a paper when Jeremy Lin was making mistakes and not performing as well as usual for the Knicks, the headline read, "Chink the Armor." That really happened.
Can't support doxxing for any reason.
Heavyweight champ Jack Johnson dealt with an incredible amount of racism and death threats during his time.
If you look at Mayweather Jr you will be disappointed about many things. Not only is he racist but he beats his women. He is a horrible human being with money.
9:21 People are not dumb they are getting bold specially in recent times.
I think you should watch the movie â42â. Probably the best performance by Chadwick Boseman. It tells his story very well.
Golf Week ran a cover story with a noose on the cover to "illustrate the controversy". The noose represents the subject of Kelly Tilghman's tasteless jest. If it went too far, it was motivated by trying to grab attention, and perhaps not overt racism on the part of the magazine.
I'm 60 and from what I've observed, racism seems to have gotten worse in the last decade, after it seemed it was getting better. But in hindsight, it seems the underbelly was uglier than we thought. In the US at least, Donald Trump made it socially acceptable to say the quiet parts out loud (and to openly use violence and to lie incessantly).
Maybe there's a silver lining, painful as this is: The more brazen and open it is, the more public discourse there will be. If we don't talk about it, we'll never solve it.
I'm afraid right now in the United States racism is not moving in the right direction.
It's interesting that Boston Bruins fans were racist towards black players, because the first black player to play in the NHL, Willie O'Ree, played for the Bruins, in 1958.
I went to school in Boston 50 years ago, my cousinâs son is there now. We agreed Boston was the most racist place we ever lived.
yea on Suarez. It's very hard to lip read a beaver mouth.
It's one thing when a racist comment comes from someone white but it hits even harder when it's from another person of color.
This made me nauseous đą Kudos to you for having a variety of content. đâïž
Are these really as bad as what happens in European soccer?
One off remarks by idiots are one thing but a whole stadium racially abusing a player-today not the 40s- thatâs scary.
Mayweather is an absolute loser. I mean I am partial to Manny because my wife filipino, but Mayweather gloated about winning his boxing match despite the fact all he did the whole match was walk around the ring. It was so annoying. So many times the crowd booed him because we wasn't really doing anything. He think he has talent, but walking around the ring and not doing anything is not talent. It's basically cheesing (aka a cheap way) to use loopholes to win a match.
Hockey has had a number of black Canadian (and American) players. Jarome Iginla was probably the most notable. He could do pretty much everything. Scored 50 goals twice, could fight, hit and was team captain of the Calgary Flames for years. I was usually cheering against the Flames in Vancouver, but I always respected him. He was never a dirty or cheap player. He played hard and honest. We actually had a line on the Vancouver Canucks here for a year that featured 2 twin brothers, Henrik and Daniel Sedin, and Anson Carter, a black Canadian guy, and they were dynamite together. Calling them the "Brothers Line" was a bit cringey and questionable, though, but it was meant to be a positive thing. We loved those guys. I'm not going to pretend Canada is free of racism, because it isn't, but usually if you're vocal about it in public, it's not going to be tolerated. You can't just walk down the street using racial slurs or yammer on about racial stereotypes and expect not to hear about it.
I hate racism. It's so outdated. Judging people because they are different than yourself is not acceptable. But the main thing about it that pisses me off is the fact that racism has to be taught. There are children who are in school with a whole diversity of other races and they all play along together without even thinking about the other children being different. The media doesn't help either. Even in one of these clips in the video a hockey player is referred to as "black". Why did they have to say that? If a child is watching the news and hears that a person with dark skin is called 'black' then they might say that word at school to a classmate. I know because it happened to me as a child.
My life has been most blessed when I've lived with others. Much more to say. We are better when we get out of our way,
Was it Howard Cosell at a football game that said "look at that monkey run"?
Iâm surprised Al Campanisâ comments on Nightline about black managers in MLB didnât make the list.
Reconfirming what we knew about Boston being a racist city.
Boston is known as being a little bit racist at times, furthermore, there is bad history between the Canadians & the Bruins (there's a video you can react to).
lol Boston was notorious for its anti-bussing riots. For Kabir, this was about forced bussing to integrate grade and high schools.
The only real comfort here is that almost all of the perpetrators (at least in more modern times) were nearly unanimously condemned and faced consequences.
Sports has done a great deal of pulling folks of different backgrounds together. Like you stated, most just care about winning.
Many people consider Boston the most racist city in the U.S.
I wonder why Howard Cosell failed to make the list.
10:50 He OWNS the basketball team. He has nothing to do with it other than making deals and moves that make profit go up for his personal benefit. I bet you could give him a folder of people's photos and he wouldn't know which of them were on the team. Doubt he could name the last five champion teams either.
I wish Nashville still had PK :(
You should watch the movie 42. It's powerful. And as a big baseball fan it's always a good reminder of how cruel we can be as fans sometimes over the dumbest stuff. The bottom line was Jackie Robinson could play ball. And he deserved every opportunity to play
There is nothing dumber than the racist food tropes. "Hahaha those people like to eat delicious food, hahaha"
I would never live in Boston. If u don't know this? you need to find out bro.
As a huge hockey fan and a huge Boston sports fan in general, it rankles me every time I hear about what some backward, ignorant, idiotic fans who HAPPEN TO RESIDE IN THE BOSTON AREA said about Ward and Subban. There is no place for that in any sport, and I hope that incident doesn't give you a bad opinion of Boston fans, Kabir. We can be passionate and rough around the edges and VERY emotional, but racism is the exception, not the rule, among us. I hope the fans who were identified as having sent those tweets and comments were never allowed into a Bruins game again. Hockey in general needs more diversity and people of all backgrounds need more access and exposure to one of the greatest sports on the planet. We're getting there slowly but surely, the NHL gets more diverse every year, but the game still has a very long way to go.
I am not unto DOXing people. That can be dangerous
Boston is notorious for racism.
I donât think things are much better than they were 20 yrs ago, sadly. In fact I think itâs gotten worse.
No, you see how Patrice reacted
From what Iâve seen cities tend to be far more racist than the countryside (contrary to the popular belief that rural republicans are racist). I donât know why that is but from my personal experiences in both the cities are more racist, one idea is that out in the country people have to work together to earn a living far more personally. Such as bailing hay, buying and selling feed and many more things, many folks will have personal relationships with those they get hay or feed from which Iâd say eliminates most racism
I think it also has to do with the fact there isnât a lot of black people on the countryside, so they have nobody to be racist to.
Jackie Robinson is alleged and it's because of him. The MLB honor him and everybody wears his number 42. Yes he broke the collarbar but the crop that he had to go through. I don't think guys today could deal with. But even after his baseball career ended he did so much more after for all minorities.
Whew--- This one was enraging...
Racist attitudes were a prevailing norm when I was growing up in the 1970s. Sure, there was a rising anti-racist sentiment (which thankfully my family and relations were part of), but when historians tell you the Past is Another Country? Theyâre not kidding!
Thank you for your reaction to this video. I watched this one a little while back. Sadly, this still happens all over the world. Shame really.
Common sense ain't that common, Kabir...
It really isnât đ©
-Tom MacDonald
No biggie, just words. I lived through it and I turned out fine
There's a misconception about America that all of its hate comes from the South. Boston has always been awful and the bloodiest year for racial incidents in our nation's history was concentrated heavily in Chicago. It just feels good to push the blame onto other people, so the South takes the brunt of that.
Promoting doxxing? Cringe.
For racists? Absolutely.
The least you could do against racists lmao ur soft
@@kabirconsiders Uh oh. I didnât like what you just said. I guess Iâll just threaten you by telling every nut job where you live.
@@aust25 Youâre the one butthurt over words, but go off I guess.
Just donât be racist. Itâs not difficult.
I believe for the most part that there's a connection between hate and fear. I also believe that though it's not a guaranteed solution education and communication may help. This video seems to show it's a big problem in the US. I hope the situation is better where you are as well as the rest of the world. As a gay man I am sure homophobia will improve but continue as well as racial discrimination. The hope is that we learn to stay strong and true to ourselves. Thanks for this video. May it remind us to be more understanding.
oh Kabir the U.S. is really bad at the moment.
I'd like to see you react to the movie "42" starring Chadwick Boseman.
Kabir Considers:. Boston has always been notorious for being racist. Bill Russell won 11 NBA championships in Boston. After one championship someone broke into his home and sh*t in his bed.
Kabir I'm no soccer fan but what I notice being a black man is that Suarez tried to pat Evra on the head and he wasn't having it. That's a known racist act trying to rub the head of a black man. They used to call themselves doing it for good luck.
I agree with you that it was nothing fun about what Mayweather said about Pacquiao. No excuses.
The Dom Imus indecent was shameful not only for him calling those players nappy headed h*s, it was shameful because that team at the time was getting demolished. Why the urge to pile on to what was already a foregone conclusion.
The NBA owner Donald Sterling was also notorious for bring people in his players locker room and treating them like they were some stud horses that he owned. He also once asked a prospective head coach why did he think that he could coach these n-words. And the coup de grace of all was that his girlfriend that he didn't want fraternizing with black people was half black herself.
During Jackie Robinson's first season breaking the color barrier in baseball he had to promise that he would not respond to the racism. He had to swallow it. Robinson was not that type of person to take insults from anyone but he did it because he knew if he responded it would ruin it for any other black players following him. After that season he was allowed to be himself and he took nothing from anyone. In the long run I believe that that first year took a toll on Robinson's life because he lived only to the age of 53. He was a major figure in the Civil Rights movement in the USA after his retirement.
rubbing someone on the head is a normal action in soccer after fouling or arguing with them. Theres nothing remotely racist about it
@@joejesswein9740 Well it would not be normal after what that guy did.
I can't believe that they didn't mention the heaps of racist football fan interactions in Europe - especially in Poland, Croatia, and Russia. SS Lazio is also a notoriously racist club.
On the subject of football, Rangers should definitely get an honorable mention. As recently as the 1990's, they refused to sign Catholic players or hire Catholic managers/staff.
Famously, Celtic manager Jock Stein was asked which player he'd sign given the choice between Catholic and Protestant players of equal caliber. Stein, a Protestant himself, said that he'd sign the Protestant player because he knew Rangers wouldn't sign the Catholic. (In fairness, Stein's appointment was controversial and unpopular at the time. While not as virulent, there's bigotry on the Celtic side, as well. After the Lisbon Lions won the European Cup in 1967, people forgot to care where or whether Stein went to church.)
In Israel, Beitar Jerusalem is defiantly and proudly bigoted. Their first Muslim signing was Chechen - I don't recall his name. When the starting XI were announced, half the sold out crowd refused to go to the match. When the poor guy actually scored (a match winner, if memory serves) the rest of the stadium cleared out. I believe the match ended in a near empty venue.
If extra terrestrials landed on this planet, I sincerely believe they'd be dumbfounded by the mere concept of racial or ethnic bigotry. I wouldn't blame them a bit.
My respect for Tiger Woods, Jim Thorpe, Louis Tewanima, Jackie Robinson, Vanessa and Serena Williams, Simone Biles, Billy Mills, (I want to keep going) is limitless. Each one excelled while swimming upstream even though their competitors swam downstream. Or military heroes like IRA Hays. We cannot call it a shameful part of history because it hasn't stopped. I have zero authority or the current Olympic gymnastics committee would be pressured to resist in disgrace, and very publicly firing those who refused. And banning them for life. I thought, for some time that it was getting better. From my perspective, though, it is still there but you don't see it mentioned w mixed (race) company until some leader who is equally ignorant starts throwing words around that they get tired of having to hold back. I used to blame it all on the Americans until I learned about the Nazis, Apartheid, and watched racist slime spew out of the mouths of random Canadians and Englishmen and I truly believed Canada was incapable. Before my Cousins spoke to me about their treatment of First Nations people. And who in the US is still treated as a great hero? Teddy Roosevelt. Have any of those who think he is grand turned their brain on to understand what his "heroic" deeds were? Grrrrr
Kabir channeling Rodney King...đđđđđ
Golf and Boston.. yep didn't see that coming(sarcasm)
your movie reactions should add 42 to the list it is the story of Jackie Robinson
Itâs bad enough that people say these things, but itâs twice as bad when people make these videos to instigate hate . If the media gets you upset over what someone else said or done, thay have done what thay set out to do .
We' re all the same. Yep!
What makes the Donald Sterling situation even sicker is the conversation was with his black mistress......
My dad always says "Why do black people have black only colleges, black only groups, black only stuff. We should have white only colleges and things also!". It's kinda cringe when he says it. >.
As a white person, I've always thought black colleges are awesome. So much culture. A white college? Well, that'd be full of the wrong kind of culture.
Well. The reason black colleges came to be, was because black people couldn't attend white colleges, could not join white groups or be welcomed into one. Unless they were being lynched,beaten,burned alive. That's why black groups,schools came to be, and even then the black students attending g the black schools or groups were still tormented and yes some killed.
Also HBCU welcome white people. They can even receive a Minority Grant for being white attending a black school.
During the olympics in Berlin Jesse Owens said that he was treated better by the Germans than we was Americans if that says anything.
It wasn't when Ty Cobb severally beat a disabled fan in the stands for calling him a half-n-word. Only he used the word. Another fan yelled at Cobb to stop because the man getting the beating didn't have any hands. He replied I don't care if has no feet! He called me a half-n-word
Unfortunately, things aren't a lot better in the US. I can't speak for the UK, but it's not improved a lot here, for a lot of people. Thanks for doing this one. I'm quite sure it wasn't easy for you. â€
Love that monkey painting đšđ„
Don't get the Clippers situation, Kabir. Get a pizza instead...đ...
I'm ashamed of some of our fans. I personally apologize. that is not a sentiment widely shared that I'm aware of
I lived in Texas for 2 1/2 years and never experienced as much racism as my 2 days in Boston.
The whole video I'm thinking "what about Jackie Robinson and the 36 Olympics?" Then the video redeemed itself!
Kabir that was tough to watch. Iâd like to bring to your attention a man named Jim Thorpe. He was an Indigenous man from America and participated in the 1936 Olympics,the one Hitler wanted to prove Aryan superiority. Thorpe won Gold. He has an interesting story. In any case,what is Aryan?
Iâm sorry but you donât know your ass from third base. Jim Thorpe was not in the 1936 Olympics; not even close. He probably never came within 500 miles of Berlin. He dominated the 1912 Stockholm event. He subsequently had his medals taken away because it was found that he had been a paid professional athlete (baseball) previously. At the time, only amateurs were to compete. (Though technically true, itâs hard to imagine the decathalon events equating to batter and throwing a baseball.)
The real injustice of 1936 Berlin was that while (much to Hitlerâs dismay) he was unsuccessful in preventing black athletes from competing (Jesse Owens won 4 gold medals there), the spineless USOC yielded to pressure and two Jewish runners were not allowed to compete in the 4x100 meter relay ( in which the US won the gold. The video completely misses that.
One those two Jewish men was Marty Glickman who became a very widely known and successful sportscaster.
Thorpe participated in the 1912 Olympics.
That Mayweathet comment was also a stunning display of ignorance.
You should react to the Jackie Robinson Movie "42"
Gurriel was not being racist. He was being descriptive. He was simply saying he doesnât have luck with Asian pitchers.
I just don't understand racism.
We're all human.
Itâs so bizarre. If someone does something bad to me, I donât like that person. I donât dislike that persons entire race..
@@kabirconsiders Exactly!!
The problem is that skin color and facial features are the first things we see and the most superficial.
Unfortunately as long as there are stupid, shortsighted people this issue will continue.
Let's not forget whatever race you are there are members of every single race that are racist. There is no exception. Sadly that is our world and it will never change, parents will teach racism to their kids directly or indirectly thereby leading to a continuation of racism in our society.
Some people forget that we all bleed red. God created all of us.
Why? Why not? Because it hurt someone's feelings? Grow a skin.
You keep asking why people ruin their careers just to make racist comments itâs because theyâre stupid racism is stupid and racists are stupid.
Yeah, you've got to be pretty stupid to think a whole group is all the same.
Boston Is known for racism. The last Baseball team to have black players I believe it was in the 80's
Not totally true. The Red Sox signed their first Black player in the early 60s. But it was almost a whole DECADE after Jackie Robinson retired. Talk about damning.
