To support my efforts to create more clips please donate to me at www.patreon.com/allinaday. This gentleman was a teacher in a small Virginia town high school back in 1989 when I interviewed him. His perspective on Virginia and African-American history and what he witnessed in his time I found most interesting and perceptive. He was outspoken and articulate as this and other clips I'm going to present with him will demonstrate.

    Moving account on an infuriating, tragic & destructive practice that greatly impacted the Black community in such negative ways!!
  • As a black man I believe that everything this man said is 100% true.
  • Blk folk were asking for equal school funding back during Brown vs Board of Education. The offer was accepted but the NAACP didn't accept the offer they wanted social integration instead . After that blks gave up total control and independence . To this day there is not 1 fully functioning community in the US . 106 HSBC colleges , Churches , voting rights and 1.2 trillion in disposable spending power . But if these aren't used collectively it doesn't matter . Being scattered and fragmented is bound to fail

    Mr Hoffman I've been watching your videos for sometime now but I never new you interviewed Mr White until last week. I've probably watched this video 20 times just to hear him speak. It's like going back to high school and listening to him in class! Mr White is close to 100 now and I plan to visit him at the end of this month! Great Video!
  • I feel we need this same unity today. Though variables have changed so much, the end game the same.

    Hi, I am wondering where to find the whole documentary of this and other clips. Also, what are the names of the people you are interviewing? Super powerful content. Thanks for putting it out here.

    Everybody has lost some sense of tribal unity in the multicultural endeavour, we need a unified holistic cultural outlook, identity politics only leads to division in a country founded on mass immigration, and the victim hierarchy ain't helping either, yet unity cannot be forced upon peoples it must naturally flourish, rap culture has damaged the black youth more than any other influence IMO. Attitude is not all, America at its core is largely Western European/Anglophile in its ethos from a cultural perspective and that is no shame anyone can participate in that culture as long they drop the archaic negative competing ideology they might bring with them.

    Funny how this happened when the draft ruined young men from 1942 to 1973
