Stronger Men and Women back then. Definitely more Black Unity

For a film with no sound it still speaks volumes. Appreciate

People complaining about no sound, lack imagination. What you won’t hear is students acting up in the classroom. These young people were eager to learn.

Amazing how informative a video can be - even without sound. I keep coming back to watch again and again. More young people need to see this to feel motivated, inspired and encouraged. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

Bro we gotta uplift our Black Community

strength and courage it took for Black Americans to survive in the Jim Crow South goes beyond words

Whats that

I noticed, also, that younger children did way more for themselves at a way younger age.

Even though I couldn't hear the sound I still enjoyed watching how my beautiful Culture were goal driven in those harsh years of Racial division. Thank you for uploading this video on KZread.

I just want to hug them

Those babies at 6:12 are so adorable lol. It really looked as if black were more tight knit as a community back then.

There's Tuskegee, Alabama and Atlanta

Never ever seen this in school. I'm blown away.

I’m 24 and All I can speak of is the city I’m from. Baltimore, MD. I think a lot of problems people my age (And a little older too) face is that we’re disconnected from the struggles our ancestors endured. With iPhones and Gucci and vacations and Mercedes we feel like we’re “winning”. Killing each other over pennies. Treating our women like sex objects. The lack of love is due to the lack of connection. How can I love my people if I do not love myself? How can I love myself if I do not know myself? We should be ashamed of how privileged yet ungrateful we are.

Surprise by the technology they had

The 30s look a lot like the 60s and some of the 70s when I grow up. I guess a lot hasn't or doesn't change too fast.

Does anybody have audio in their video? I'm watching the video without sound and want to know if that is how everyone's video is.

I saw another video on an old African-American couple interviewed in the late 1980s about American life back in the 1920s/30s. At first, I was surprised to hear them talk about apprenticeships from the get go! How young people (White and Black) were encouraged to do apprenticeships at a job placement before or after graduating high school! Aside from that, they spoke about how American life has changed so much in 50 years time. Which I couldn’t agree less with!

Thanks for sharing that story. We've made progress but not enough.

The kids seemed they were all very well behaved and mannerly

Even though us African Americans were under segregated laws in the United States this video shows us so industrial and creative and in unity. And willing to help each other. We had respect and love for oursleves and we believe in the God of Israel. African Americans men and women were more focus on God family and standing up for our civil rights and had high morals values and respected our elders. When African-Americans were allowed into integration it broke black families down by accepting welfare, no father allowed in the home, building ghetto projects, putting drugs and prostitution into our black communities across america. African-American had there owned businesses and had healthy businesses relationship with other African American owned and operated business. I wish it could be like this now for us African Americans who feel the same way I do.

Many of the early films were recorded without sound or as the Germans say, mit out sound. The film would be cut together and a narrator would be added. This is raw footage.

It’s so sad the way people of color were treated in the past, but it’s also sad how those who weren’t raised like assholes gets treated horribly just because of what their great parents did.

There's no sound.

Some of the films in the collection at the National Archives were either silent films or their sound tracks were lost during the fire in the archives storage facility. Many film negatives were lost too. So in some cases all that is left is either the film negative or prints or the sound tracks. In this case only the negative survived. And some of the films are the raw footage of what was shot. So we're able to see the unedited record of how people lived, worked, played, etc.
