Watch as Emory Associate Professor of African American Studies, Carol Anderson, discusses some of the injustices and prejudices of the Jim Crow South as well as those that fought against it.
The saddest thing is that Black veterans, like the one mentioned here, had to defend a country that really never spoke up for them. That is the saddest part of all this.
This is Professor Carol Anderson from Emory. She is truly a gifted and passionate griot and historian. You can literally see the story, feel it. Simply captivated.
@Joanie Wright I like that you used the term "griot" in your description of Professor Anderson. Few Americans, White or Black, are familiar with that term, but should be. Oral history is every bit as relevant as written history. Thank you for your informative comment.
My granduncles Rev. Raymond Lockridge, Rev. John Lockridge and Rev. Calvin Lockridge, (my grandfather's brothers who was an Army veteran Sgt. Bruce Lockridge) were a part of the 1946 Columbia Race Riot. As I am just now hearing about this riot, it makes me proud to see they were trying to make the peace.
The phenomenal Professor should be awarded a Presidential Medal of Freedom for her laureate work of narrating a story. She literally takes her listeners back in time play by play, scene by scene and makes you apart of the history. I've never seen anyone like her. Epic!

We do not need life and death reduced to being told by a storyteller. Yes black men were lynched in the woods.....especially famous black men! Never forget......ask your Grandfather. Go to library for past newspapers.
She is superb, and animates 'the way it was' for us. Enough has been too much for too long. The stolen people are not only beautiful and strong, but tolerant beyond measure. Who are the savages?
Many times when we are amongst our own Kind that's the way that we express ourselves as black people., such a way that it is filled with passion, especially when we're talking about the protecting of our people.! I love every bit of it!!
I love her passion because what she telling is the truth. it aint black history, it's true history. truth aint got co color just like history aint got no color, truth is truth; sovereign.
This is the best history lesson from this educated black woman I heard about blacks winning. We need to stick together like our fore fathers.Beautiful story told by my sister. I am smiling as I type my comment.
I am 80 yrs. today(7-28-2022. and I never heard anyone talk about this event before and I am so happy to see it unfold on my cell phone. Thank u for inlighting me on my black history.Robert Lee White.
I never heard this story or person before, I'm fascinated (also white). I'm thinking of the gold star mothers who went to France where their sons were killed and were nothing short of shocked to find they were welcomed (for the most part) & that there wasn't segregation as we had here. I may have that wrong so correct me if so but I love to know history in a different light. This prof is awesome, I prob would have stayed in college if she were there
I totally agree with you and feel the exact same way. She is an excellent storyteller in the tradition of the African griots. She shares our history in such a way that you can close your eyes and visualize everything she's saying and be transported directly in the midst of the event. Dr Anderson is a powerful speaker, lecturer, scholar, author, historian, professor, etc of epic proportions. We can certainly learn a lot from her and emulate her passion for searching out the truth and being informed about our history (KNOWLEDGE IS POWER). She is to be applauded on every level, her brilliance is beautiful! Don't you agree? 🙂👍💯💜
DO this is when did looting and burning people's property come into play... WICKED WHITES May 29, 2020 - It dates back to the civil rights era and is known to have been invoked by a white police chief cracking down on protests and a segregationist ...
I was three years old living in Columbia, Tenn. when the Riot occurred. I am now seventy-seven, the story she tells is exactly as it has been repeated all of my life. The event with Thurgood Marshall, was new news.
@@rodniegsm1575 Ethnic cleansing occurs between people of the same race but who have different cultures religion and whatnot tries to wipe out the other to purify the culture. Race riots occur when one race tries to eliminate the other race entirely.
@@larpsim How peculiar that the party carrying out human rights violations gets to brand/define its behavior and try to parse it as internecine strife amongst same races. Reminds me of pedophiles rebranding pedophilia as "minor attracted persons".
TheHardRunner Yes she did. It was a horrible thing to start with, it would be a good movie. But, reading the comments, posters are acting like this happened today, and not over 70 years ago.
I’m sure you could she’s going to teach the we all have it coming because we were ones are we are blacker we want slaves nothing but a troublemaker. Besides I looked up what went on and she’s way far off it’s very untrue the things she teaches but nothings going to change as W Negroz are you just figure you can’t get it together and you don’t ever seem to be able to so everything is white people’s fault. Even if true this happen 80 years ago what does that got to do with today? By the way it’s not true.
The way delivers her stories are incredible. She is so animated and intense. "Did I just get shot, did I get wounded " That part had me captivated like I was there.
Darryl L. Suttle my family told me all about this... My great-grandmother was born there in 1897.....i remember more about that place than what's being told... Wicked undercover... Mule day is also the sale of slaves...
@@antonioseyam8841 you need to tell your story on video. And get your elders to tell their story on video or record. I never know more then what school taught until I was25 and I'm 27 now.
I'm from Columbia. My grandmother told me that when the smoke cleared the next morning they was hauling dead white bodies out by the truck loads. Please believe it!!!
Dr. Carol Anderson is simply excellent as she tells about this Riot. We all need to hear this and understand that hatred and prejudice cannot withstand true faith and determination. Never tolerate the arrogance and selfishness of prejudice and evil. By the way, the initial incident took place on February 25, 1946. The mother was Gladys Stephenson and her son, James Stephenson, was a U.S. Navy Veteran. William Fleming Jr. was the store employee who disrespected Mrs. Stephenson.
I am filmmaker if somebody gives me the money I will definitely film this movie because it's one of those stories that need to be told that Hollywood is not telling.
I just finished my 22nd year of film school and television production. I will come work with you for free. This needs to be brought to life. It's an awe inspiring piece of history that needs telling.
This is why I have weekly Black history nights with my child. There are documentaries and articles online and books. I've been doing this for 7 years now.
I am gratified to have found these videos by Prof Carol Anderson of Emory who reminds us that although we have come a long way it appears that we are backsliding in civil and voter's rights therefore we should ever forget.
More than anything with this and the Tulsa riots… can’t help but think of current similar events that lead to crazy riots/destruction and death bc of a pushed narrative like in 1992 and the George Floyd incident. Perceived wrongs to a race and then just take their own personal and cause mayhem. Crazy.
I keep telling people you got to remember everything we say on CZcams they monitor it whatever you say on Facebook they minor it FBI CIA same thing with Instagram even your phones they are afraid of black people gathering together with power afraid of that no one's going to stand and watch Another Man kill his kids and his wife same thing they doing today shooting pregnant woman's down three four five times with no weapon always have a Justified when it comes to a police it's law license to kill black people on site
she's telling the truth! truth is always interesting. Passion you hear in her voice is coming from the stance of telling truth to the youth. You're enthralled because the human spirit wants to hear the truth. We long for God and God holds more truth than any other source. We are drawn to truth. that's why the media is so dangerous, they have tactics to spin the truth, just like the Devil did in the garden of Eden. He'll spin the truth and get you to believe a lie.
I thoroughly enjoyed this detailed account of the injustice against blacks in Tennessee. This was definitely not taught to me or my fellow classmates in high school. Thank you for sharing this very informative historical event. As well as the personal involvement of Thurgood Marshall; to ensure justice was indeed impartial for this black community.
When my ADHD allows me to watch something in its entirety without being distracted...BABY let me tell u... this lady is phenomenal!! I was 100% ENGAGED! Binge watching all her videos.
Mohamad Ali said: "You want me to go fight for you, but at home you won't stand for me" - he then was charge for dodging military service. His statement was true then and it is true now.
Sound effects and everything, great story telling. I'm hooked need some more storys like this. I'm always rooting for the underdog. The Great General Emiliano Zapata from the Mexico revolution sayed it best. I rather live a life fighting then to live a life on my knees. Or something like that.
So Exxxtra agreed. We need to hear more stories of black resistance against white terrorism. Not only that but the fact that they won their cases. It goes to validate self defense and show our community that there is more than one model of resistance than the non violent civil rights style of black unity. What I also love about this pre civil era case is that the black establishment (naacp) did not denounce or play politics by apologizing to white America. They stood with them and defended their rights.... I would love an accurate movie about this
@@josiahgreen242 yes we do what you know that is not constitutional for them to ever make a lot of movies I'm disobeying the white man's order they're too scared to lose they control empower and educate us on Real History that's why they teach us and our kids the b******* that they teaches brainwash the mindset hey it's been centuries in centuries unsteady to keep the black man uneducated and fighting against each other we know we have power we have just been discouraged and using our power against each other
Hinigan my son was shot buy a white security guard. My son is white and wasn't doing anything wrong.. I'm just saying black people aren't alone in the abuse departmen. When I was 11 I answered the door and had a gun stuck in my face. I cant stand anyone who tries to dominate and abuse anyone. I'm sorry if a white person has been cruel to you. But I just want to let you know that were not all bad. And we have alot of problems too. God bless and keep u safe.
The lady is amazing. I held onto every word she said. Even if they ever make a movie of this history it will never do justice to the way this lady narrated it. Thank you so so much…🙏🏾
My youngest,Son sent me this June 12,2020....today is 12/20/2020...got busy...but it was worth the wait,the Professor is A Excellent Storyteller,I Greatly Enjoyed It❤😇🙏
Come Again Unfortunately you’re probably right. I’ve seen them in action and they’re so hateful! But you must be hateful and evil to be able to relate with an ignorant racist hateful person like Trump! Really you just HAVE TO BE EVIL to relate with him....
With my family deeply rooted and born and raised in columbia, I've heard this story told so many times, sounds like one of my aunts telling this all over again!. Love the passion in great story telling thank you! 🙌🏾
I like how she emphasizes the way the government had been directly involved in violating the Constitution - for the purpose of denying citizens their rights. It really shows you how these people weren't just up against a few groups of bigots - they were up against agencies within the very government that was supposed to uphold their rights and protections. To stand up to that takes an amazing amount of courage.
She's an OUTSTANDING teacher. This is very true. However, I've honestly been looking for more comments like yours that didn't get so lost in her amazing story telling ability, that they lost sight of what she was actually discussing. I truly Thank You for seeing right to the core of the issue and acknowledging it.
This was uploaded 8 years ago and so true today still. We still going thru this. Many black people don't even know of these historic moments, yet theIR stories sound just like it did 70 yrs ago...
What a powerful story teller. She told it like she was actually an eye witness to those events. I was on the edge of my chair paying full attention. That was better than any movie I've seen in many years. Thank you very much Ms. Anderson.
She's a great story teller. I was able to see everything happening as she told the story. Thank God Thurgood Marshall wasn't lynched. You rarely hear of old school stories that turn out that way.
Omg! I could not stop watching, listening to this riveting chronicle of a story she told as if she were there. The way she used her voice, her hands, enthusiasm, and her profound knowledge of the occurrences of this time was better than any short epic tale of history. I am still reeling from this story. How profound and what courage blacks eschewed in this crime. Glory hallelujah!
I had a VERY dramatic/passionate history professor in freshman American History 101. I learned a lot from her versus the bone dry/ preselected facts from professors after her.
We never hear the stories of us fighting back in history classes. My family left Tulsa Ok after the massacre abandoning our homes and business,i have yet to read it in a history book.
School history books are never enough. I read about the 1921 Tulsa race riot in American Heritage. Apparently, when whites riot there is a higher body count and more property damage. Some of the photos of city blocks looked like 1945 Berlin. A white pilot even flew his biplane out of the local airfield to drop incendiaries. And this was only one of the major white race riots during that period, as you've no doubt read or heard. I'd rather take my chances as a white man (which is what I am) in a black riot than as a black man in a white riot. Black men who riot may have 'nothing to lose' but white rioters think nothing can touch them and they go absolutely berserk (from an Old Norse word bersrkr referring to a warrior that fought in a trance-like fury, according to Wikipedia). All this rage against people who, under the circumstances of the time, couldn't possibly have done anything to them. It's tempting to call it a mental illness but it is a product of poisonous upbringing and, ultimately, a choice.
Thank you for sharing this story this is the first I have heard of this. Not only the riots but the fact that Thurgood Marshall our future and first black Supreme Court Justice was facing a possible lynching by corrupt and crooked officers is very troubling. Thank God that this did not happen for it could have changed the landscape as we know it or even delayed our progress. We must continue to fight for true freedom and equality. Praise to the Navy veteran that stood up for his mother in that store and laid that man out. I don't condone violence but sometimes it's exactly what we need to get the point across. Sometimes a necessary violence to a certain degree is called for. Great passionate storytelling Professor I love it! 🙏🏽👍🏽
All these years later mass injustices like these continue against those considered, less than, unequal, unworthy, undeserving, unappreciated, marginalized, oppressed and the downtrodden. Unfortunately, much has not changed. This belief system and hateful theme haven't either. The tactics are more sophisticated but the institutions of hate and systematic oppression still prevail; often openly. Continued opposition to acts such as these are needed on every level. Disinterest, apathy, and not supporting humane civil and social causes are not options. It certainly can begin with our history being passionately passed on and learned by its next generation of potential victims. This type of dynamic storytelling is a perfect forum or tool to successfully educate and inspire 🙌 👏 ✨ so many. 💯 This should propel any person of/with human dignity and a moral conscience to strongly respond. lt must be considered as our personal obligation to influence our universal unacceptance of man's inhumanity towards man!!! 🤔
That’s what I said about Tyler perry and Oprah. They have all this money they make other movies or star in them why not make it worth while and teach at the same time.
You are right,it needs to be writtrn,and scripted by black people's, because it stands a reason, if a man want treat you right, he want tell you the truth,can't be trusted
No not Oprah nor Tyler Perry. Jason Black is a better choice. If not him, then Tariq Nasheed. I would rather see one of them do it than Oprah or Tyler Perry.
She is an excellent story teller because she makes you see it I know that's how my mind works but love her spirit I wish it was more teachers like her all over the world and in every classroom in America I really do boy if she was my history teach becuase history was on of my favorite classes back in school.
Great story teller! I’m making it my own personal duty as a white woman who is 39 years old. To truly educate myself and hopefully spread this information to everyone else I know.. so that hopefully there will be a clearer picture to the people I know of why protesting right now is so important! Just like in this story, it took one unarmed white man to stand up to these racist “cops” , that allowed Thurgood Marshall to escape the lynching they were planning and go on to become the first black judge on the Supreme Court! It should inspire more white people who know in their hearts what is right, to take action!! It’s no longer ok to just be on the sidelines feeling bad and sending sympathy. We need to step in and take ACTION to protect the Black Lives Matter movement! We need to speak up when you are in a group of all white people and someone says something that you KNOW they wouldn’t say around a black person. SPEAK UP, TAKE ACTION! We need to exterminate this surge of empowered racism and white supremacy. It’s so important that we protest with them and refuse to allow the system to continue to degrade and suppress the black race via police brutality.
Reading your comment made tears run down my cheeks. I'm a 55 year old white women and I totally wholeheartedly agree with you. Wish there were more who felt like we do about this situation.
I love the way she tells this story. This is my hometown and this account was told to me many times by family members who were a part of that night. I have listened to this video many times since it was first posted in 2012.
This was my great grandmother that happened to granny gladys and I use to hear this story all the time when I was little by my grandfather who I'm named after and that was his brother the navy veteran my grandfather name is Walter Wesley Stevenson I am glad to see that their story is getting some recognition and it's sad to say that I still live in Lawrenceburg TN and I have seen some growth in the community as far as racism goes but we still have a long way to go before we can say that things have changed completely
THANK you professor Carol Anderson for telling this story that I think I heard before but don't remember. Here in New York City listening like seriously I feel like I was there the way she just telling the story she is an amazing narrator. This story is amazing they should make a movie about this story.
I love and respect all Veterans . Black and White and Native Americans. They kept America free. Thankyou for that. Black Veterans fought for this country. They should have Veteran benefits , that whites have. Right is right , wrong is wrong.
Of course they were my father was a ww2 veteran fought in Japan and he was denied the G.I.Bill...that's why its imperative to teach black kids about these things.
@@lifeofalady Same here, ma'am. Truth precedes reconciliation & therefore I must seek the truth about my ancestors & my southern heritage, regardless how shameful, immoral, or criminal.
so many questions about her...Is she married? What is she doing today during the current BLM climate? How is she so dynamic in her delivery? Does she give TED talks? I'm so curious about her. Carol Anderson, can she run for president this year?
wow!! she told the story so great that I couldn't stop watching it. she captivated me with way she told the story. she truly is an awesome professor/teacher who makes it easy for you to wanna listen and learn
Leroy Marshall They did the same to my father-in-law in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. When he went to the VA, the secretary told him he was not eligible for any benefits even though he'd been released from the Army early because of injury. It wasn't until he was over 60 and his son who was a Captain at the time and also had a real estate license made inquiries that he was finally given his back disability pay and a VA loan certificate in the 80s. But people still want to pretend white privilege doesn't exist. So many people have been helped by their race and don't even realize it happened. I used to work for a company in the 70s who had the receptionist put a little number in pencil on the back of each job application and that number corresponded to the race of the applicant. That way the personnel manager didn't waste his time interviewing people he would never hire and he didn't appear to be discriminating against anyone. How do I know someone more qualified than me hadn't applied for the job that I got and wasn't hired because of racism? White people don't often think about things like that because they don't have to. If someone black gets a promotion though, then they wonder if someone white got cheated because of affirmative action or filling a quota, but they seldom think about the great percentage of the time when minorities are discriminated against.
Marvin Stovall Hi Marvin! If your talking to me, my father-in-law started asking about his benefits around 1955 I think. He went back 3 or 4 different times attempting to get information and help applying for a VA loan, but he was always told he wasn't eligible. It was late 1980s when my husband was finally able to help his father buy a house and collect his Army disability and back pay. Good old Pine Bluff, Arkansas just wasn't ready for black sharecroppers to become homeowners. That was some straight up racist bullshit! The fact that over a million black veterans were mostly cheated out of their benefits is just another example in the long history of racism especially against blacks in America, but still I hear white privilege doesn't exist!
@@cherylalt101 When you tell people this they don't believe you. I just missed Vietnam. I remember then trying to recruit us before we graduated. I could join the military but I couldn't vote, buy alcohol or cigarettes. I had friends come back and it took them years to get their benefits. The VA denied that they served.
Im still trying to figure out was I there at the scene, or díd she just made me feel like I was there. She can tell a story, few people can. When you can feel all the emotions of the times
I love how professor Carol tells this story,I almost feel like I’m right there,,,she is Amazing ,,I love an respect her so very much,,God Bless You Ms Carol Allways
DEFINITELY AGREE, a lot of PEOPLE ARE ARMING THEIR SELFS, I will be HONEST, I have many GUNS, and more than enough AMMO, with Kevlar vests. My wife and kids are 1 SHOT KILLS, I DEFINITELY do not want to see this happen, yet they are BEING pushed into,and they will be the ones paying the price for some other IDIOTS that are organizing this chaos. There are a lot of GOOD black people out there, its these young IDIOTS that's doing this,and PEOPLE will pay for these young IDIOTS mistakes, IT'S SAD BUT TRUE.
Thank you for this documentation. Black people like myself still have a long way to go even in the 21st century. Heard about these happening during my childhood from my grandparents from Birmingham, Alabama. It's true that history has a long tail and it's time to stop stepping on it.
@@adryanredbeard699 * That is the reason why they love guns and how they managed to over run and take other people countries with the invention of gun powder and guns by the Chinese.There were guns against bow arrows and Spears but now everybody have guns.EVEN STEVENS
She had me on the edge of my seat!! I lived in Columbia back in 1984/1985. I worked there, met my wife there. My children probably still visit there from time to time. I had always heard something about a riot off the square involving Mr. MARSHALL. BUT, it seemed no one wanted to talk about it or could actually give a clear reckoning of what happened. Now, I can't wait to understand it more. I was born 2 Counties over in Lincoln/Fayetteville and always since a different racial tone those areas. Like Pulaski, where the KKK was supposedly born. Things just seem different. Thanks for opening my eyes to the truth. Tonight, I will be researching this story a little deeper. I knew I did not like that town for some reason. However, not to hold it against the people there today.
I wish she had been one of my Professors. I loved the enthusiastic manner, in which she explained this 'Jim Crow' southern race riot and the sick so-called Sheriff's who tried to lynch Thurgood Marshall and other NAACP attorney. God's Holy Spirit was definitely with them in 1946 sick racist Tennessee.🙏🙏🙏
The saddest thing is that Black veterans, like the one mentioned here, had to defend a country that really never spoke up for them. That is the saddest part of all this.

Yeah had she been my teacher I would pass every test she's a great storyteller
I was three years old living in Columbia, Tenn. when the Riot occurred. I am now seventy-seven, the story she tells is exactly as it has been repeated all of my life. The event with Thurgood Marshall, was new news.
I grew up in Franklin,Tn … I remember my grandmother talking about this. She’s originally from Spring Hill , Tn
Stop calling it a race riot..its ethic clansing. Just like in Bosnia.
@@rodniegsm1575
Ethnic cleansing occurs between people of the same race but who have different cultures religion and whatnot tries to wipe out the other to purify the culture. Race riots occur when one race tries to eliminate the other race entirely.

I remembered this riot. And the sad thing about it is that it's go on right to this very day. 1946 to 2023. Still happening as of today's time.
If I was in college, I would take EVERY course that she taught. I could listen to her all day everyday.
RIGHT.

@@leonardguillory2511 Emory University
I’m sure you could she’s going to teach the we all have it coming because we were ones are we are blacker we want slaves nothing but a troublemaker. Besides I looked up what went on and she’s way far off it’s very untrue the things she teaches but nothings going to change as W Negroz are you just figure you can’t get it together and you don’t ever seem to be able to so everything is white people’s fault. Even if true this happen 80 years ago what does that got to do with today? By the way it’s not true.
The way delivers her stories are incredible. She is so animated and intense. "Did I just get shot, did I get wounded " That part had me captivated like I was there.
My parents are from PulasKKKi,TN. My Daddy, barber, & cousins told me about that riot. It's a unknown Black History fact.

This lady is a real teacher. I hear her passion, feel her passion through her telling of this historic incident.
Dr. Carol Anderson is simply excellent as she tells about this Riot. We all need to hear this and understand that hatred and prejudice cannot withstand true faith and determination. Never tolerate the arrogance and selfishness of prejudice and evil. By the way, the initial incident took place on February 25, 1946. The mother was Gladys Stephenson and her son, James Stephenson, was a U.S. Navy Veteran. William Fleming Jr. was the store employee who disrespected Mrs. Stephenson.

This is why I have weekly Black history nights with my child. There are documentaries and articles online and books. I've been doing this for 7 years now.
And this is exactly why it is our responsibility to teachout selves.
Can't you visualize the event as she speaks. Sends chills.
I am gratified to have found these videos by Prof Carol Anderson of Emory who reminds us that although we have come a long way it appears that we are backsliding in civil and voter's rights therefore we should ever forget.
More than anything with this and the Tulsa riots… can’t help but think of current similar events that lead to crazy riots/destruction and death bc of a pushed narrative like in 1992 and the George Floyd incident. Perceived wrongs to a race and then just take their own personal and cause mayhem. Crazy.
This is how black folks need to come together today .

I keep telling people you got to remember everything we say on CZcams they monitor it whatever you say on Facebook they minor it FBI CIA same thing with Instagram even your phones they are afraid of black people gathering together with power afraid of that no one's going to stand and watch Another Man kill his kids and his wife same thing they doing today shooting pregnant woman's down three four five times with no weapon always have a Justified when it comes to a police it's law license to kill black people on site
@@nathanielhightowerhightowe887 *yeah be careful but don't be cowardly & take the stance of a **#VICTIM**!!!*
The Professor has the gift of pulling you into the story.
@Gloria Parson...Yes, she's really does. She definitely kept my attention.
she's telling the truth! truth is always interesting. Passion you hear in her voice is coming from the stance of telling truth to the youth. You're enthralled because the human spirit wants to hear the truth. We long for God and God holds more truth than any other source. We are drawn to truth.
that's why the media is so dangerous, they have tactics to spin the truth, just like the Devil did in the garden of Eden. He'll spin the truth and get you to believe a lie.
Hello from South Africa, I was glued once she started speaking. Never heard of this before , glad they fought back
Gloria Parson yes I absolutely love her!
She's DEFINITELY my favorite storyteller.
I thoroughly enjoyed this detailed account of the injustice against blacks in Tennessee. This was definitely not taught to me or my fellow classmates in high school. Thank you for sharing this very informative historical event. As well as the personal involvement of Thurgood Marshall; to ensure justice was indeed impartial for this black community.
Thank you Professor Anderson. Their is a God. Amen.
I don’t think anyone could have told it best. She is passionate about her history. You could get chills as she tells the story.

This need to be a movie
So Exxxtra agreed. We need to hear more stories of black resistance against white terrorism. Not only that but the fact that they won their cases. It goes to validate self defense and show our community that there is more than one model of resistance than the non violent civil rights style of black unity. What I also love about this pre civil era case is that the black establishment (naacp) did not denounce or play politics by apologizing to white America. They stood with them and defended their rights.... I would love an accurate movie about this
I agree
Yes it does!
This is so low key talked about by elders in Columbia.

With my family deeply rooted and born and raised in columbia, I've heard this story told so many times, sounds like one of my aunts telling this all over again!. Love the passion in great story telling thank you! 🙌🏾
I like how she emphasizes the way the government had been directly involved in violating the Constitution - for the purpose of denying citizens their rights. It really shows you how these people weren't just up against a few groups of bigots - they were up against agencies within the very government that was supposed to uphold their rights and protections. To stand up to that takes an amazing amount of courage.
She's an OUTSTANDING teacher. This is very true.
However, I've honestly been looking for more comments like yours that didn't get so lost in her amazing story telling ability, that they lost sight of what she was actually discussing.
I truly Thank You for seeing right to the core of the issue and acknowledging it.
The professor is a good story teller.I read about the riot so I don't know why some people here thought i meant she was lying.
sure sounds like a story to me...

@Girls Real Estate Investing Girls Investors I am not saying she was lying, I love the way she told that story. I know the story was real.
This was uploaded 8 years ago and so true today still. We still going thru this. Many black people don't even know of these historic moments, yet theIR stories sound just like it did 70 yrs ago...
I absolutely love watching her teach these, all so important, history lessons! Thanks!!!
What a powerful story teller. She told it like she was actually an eye witness to those events. I was on the edge of my chair paying full attention. That was better than any movie I've seen in many years. Thank you very much Ms. Anderson.
Mhmm. Power of story telling. But also remember she wasn’t
She's a great story teller. I was able to see everything happening as she told the story.
Thank God Thurgood Marshall wasn't lynched. You rarely hear of old school stories that turn out that way.
She is not 'too dramatic'. she is a passionate, professional historian.
Omg! I could not stop watching, listening to this riveting chronicle of a story she told as if she were there. The way she used her voice, her hands, enthusiasm, and her profound knowledge of the occurrences of this time was better than any short epic tale of history. I am still reeling from this story. How profound and what courage blacks eschewed in this crime. Glory hallelujah!
I had a VERY dramatic/passionate history professor in freshman American History 101. I learned a lot from her versus the bone dry/ preselected facts from professors after her.
My first time coming across this tonight and I've already watched it two. Didn't even know about this.
This country has got it coming and deservedly so, some point soon the entire planet will tremble.
Marvelous narration by a gifted narrator/story teller.
It was like watching a movie.
This Lady Telling The story she is phenomenal I could listen to her all day everyone does not have that gift to explain what really took place.👏👏👏👏
Hurts for me to know this. They were gonna "lynch" Thurgood Marshall just because they can.
WHO IS THIS INCREDIBLE WOMAN?
My sister
Her name is carol Anderson
Carol Anderson. Professor at Emory. (African American studies)
She is awesome in her presentation! You need to be in movies and TV.
The captivating Dr. Carol retelling history. If these younger generations only knew what we've been through.
We never hear the stories of us fighting back in history classes. My family left Tulsa Ok after the massacre abandoning our homes and business,i have yet to read it in a history book.
School history books are never enough. I read about the 1921 Tulsa race riot in American Heritage. Apparently, when whites riot there is a higher body count and more property damage. Some of the photos of city blocks looked like 1945 Berlin. A white pilot even flew his biplane out of the local airfield to drop incendiaries. And this was only one of the major white race riots during that period, as you've no doubt read or heard. I'd rather take my chances as a white man (which is what I am) in a black riot than as a black man in a white riot. Black men who riot may have 'nothing to lose' but white rioters think nothing can touch them and they go absolutely berserk (from an Old Norse word bersrkr referring to a warrior that fought in a trance-like fury, according to Wikipedia). All this rage against people who, under the circumstances of the time, couldn't possibly have done anything to them. It's tempting to call it a mental illness but it is a product of poisonous upbringing and, ultimately, a choice.
Read 1919: The Red Summer.
Black folks have always defended themselves, at least in my neck of the woods.
Thank you for sharing this story this is the first I have heard of this.
Not only the riots but the fact that Thurgood Marshall our future and first black Supreme Court Justice was facing a possible lynching by corrupt and crooked officers is very troubling. Thank God that this did not happen for it could have changed the landscape as we know it or even delayed our progress. We must continue to fight for true freedom and equality.
Praise to the Navy veteran that stood up for his mother in that store and laid that man out. I don't condone violence but sometimes it's exactly what we need to get the point across. Sometimes a necessary violence to a certain degree is called for.
Great passionate storytelling Professor I love it! 🙏🏽👍🏽
All these years later mass injustices like these continue against those considered, less than, unequal, unworthy, undeserving, unappreciated, marginalized, oppressed and the downtrodden. Unfortunately, much has not changed. This belief system and hateful theme haven't either. The tactics are more sophisticated but the institutions of hate and systematic oppression still prevail; often openly. Continued opposition to acts such as these are needed on every level. Disinterest, apathy, and not supporting humane civil and social causes are not options. It certainly can begin with our history being passionately passed on and learned by its next generation of potential victims. This type of dynamic storytelling is a perfect forum or tool to successfully educate and inspire 🙌 👏 ✨ so many. 💯 This should propel any person of/with human dignity and a moral conscience to strongly respond. lt must be considered as our personal obligation to influence our universal unacceptance of man's inhumanity towards man!!! 🤔

That's right.
Thank you for speaking about African American TRUE History! I've learned an incredible amount of history Via CZcams.
What an inspirational story. Just makes it clearer to me why my mom loved Thurgood Marshall so much. Thank you for this!
She is an excellent story teller because she makes you see it I know that's how my mind works but love her spirit I wish it was more teachers like her all over the world and in every classroom in America I really do boy if she was my history teach becuase history was on of my favorite classes back in school.
Great story teller! I’m making it my own personal duty as a white woman who is 39 years old. To truly educate myself and hopefully spread this information to everyone else I know.. so that hopefully there will be a clearer picture to the people I know of why protesting right now is so important!
Just like in this story, it took one unarmed white man to stand up to these racist “cops” , that allowed Thurgood Marshall to escape the lynching they were planning and go on to become the first black judge on the Supreme Court!
It should inspire more white people who know in their hearts what is right, to take action!! It’s no longer ok to just be on the sidelines feeling bad and sending sympathy. We need to step in and take ACTION to protect the Black Lives Matter movement! We need to speak up when you are in a group of all white people and someone says something that you KNOW they wouldn’t say around a black person. SPEAK UP, TAKE ACTION! We need to exterminate this surge of empowered racism and white supremacy.
It’s so important that we protest with them and refuse to allow the system to continue to degrade and suppress the black race via police brutality.
Reading your comment made tears run down my cheeks. I'm a 55 year old white women and I totally wholeheartedly agree with you. Wish there were more who felt like we do about this situation.

This was my great grandmother that happened to granny gladys and I use to hear this story all the time when I was little by my grandfather who I'm named after and that was his brother the navy veteran my grandfather name is Walter Wesley Stevenson I am glad to see that their story is getting some recognition and it's sad to say that I still live in Lawrenceburg TN and I have seen some growth in the community as far as racism goes but we still have a long way to go before we can say that things have changed completely

She broke it down! I can listen to her anytime, I will love to be a student of hers.
I'm glad she brought up the G.I bill, they tried to deny my Father a loan for our first home in Los Angeles.
Leroy Marshall They did the same to my father-in-law in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. When he went to the VA, the secretary told him he was not eligible for any benefits even though he'd been released from the Army early because of injury. It wasn't until he was over 60 and his son who was a Captain at the time and also had a real estate license made inquiries that he was finally given his back disability pay and a VA loan certificate in the 80s. But people still want to pretend white privilege doesn't exist.
So many people have been helped by their race and don't even realize it happened. I used to work for a company in the 70s who had the receptionist put a little number in pencil on the back of each job application and that number corresponded to the race of the applicant. That way the personnel manager didn't waste his time interviewing people he would never hire and he didn't appear to be discriminating against anyone. How do I know someone more qualified than me hadn't applied for the job that I got and wasn't hired because of racism? White people don't often think about things like that because they don't have to. If someone black gets a promotion though, then they wonder if someone white got cheated because of affirmative action or filling a quota, but they seldom think about the great percentage of the time when minorities are discriminated against.
What year was this?
Marvin Stovall Hi Marvin! If your talking to me, my father-in-law started asking about his benefits around 1955 I think. He went back 3 or 4 different times attempting to get information and help applying for a VA loan, but he was always told he wasn't eligible. It was late 1980s when my husband was finally able to help his father buy a house and collect his Army disability and back pay. Good old Pine Bluff, Arkansas just wasn't ready for black sharecroppers to become homeowners. That was some straight up racist bullshit! The fact that over a million black veterans were mostly cheated out of their benefits is just another example in the long history of racism especially against blacks in America, but still I hear white privilege doesn't exist!
Systematic Racism
@@cherylalt101 When you tell people this they don't believe you. I just missed Vietnam. I remember then trying to recruit us before we graduated. I could join the military but I couldn't vote, buy alcohol or cigarettes. I had friends come back and it took them years to get their benefits. The VA denied that they served.
Im still trying to figure out was I there at the scene, or díd she just made me feel like I was there. She can tell a story, few people can. When you can feel all the emotions of the times

I lived in Columbia back in 1984/1985. I worked there, met my wife there. My children probably still visit there from time to time.
I had always heard something about a riot off the square involving Mr. MARSHALL. BUT, it seemed no one wanted to talk about it or could actually give a clear reckoning of what happened.
Now, I can't wait to understand it more. I was born 2 Counties over in Lincoln/Fayetteville and always since a different racial tone those areas. Like Pulaski, where the KKK was supposedly born. Things just seem different.
Thanks for opening my eyes to the truth. Tonight, I will be researching this story a little deeper.
I knew I did not like that town for some reason. However, not to hold it against the people there today.
Thanks for post. I grew up in Memphis and heard my share of these shinanigans. 60 years or 600 years...same story today. America!
I wish she had been one of my Professors. I loved the enthusiastic manner, in which she explained this 'Jim Crow' southern race riot and the sick so-called Sheriff's who tried to lynch Thurgood Marshall and other NAACP attorney. God's Holy Spirit was definitely with them in 1946 sick racist Tennessee.🙏🙏🙏
@Samanta Wade Yesssss...it was...and still is to this day!
Loved the way she says "Bamn!" "Bamn!"😆🤣
If she got Grand-kids; Her bedtime stories would keep them awake for hours😂
😂
Lmao forrela

LOL! I agree.
FACT 💯......
I could seriously listen to this professor all day. WOW - she is a phenomenal orator!
Currently watching any video with this wonderful woman in it. Her history telling is wonderful. She has the gift.
