I'm not American, but stories like this makes me ashamed to be a White man. How can anyone do something like this to another human being, let alone a child. It makes me sick to my stomach just imagining what both Willie and his dad went through during those final few minutes of Willie's life. Why is skin colour so important to so many people. We are all just human beings trying to figure out our way in this crazy world of ours. We should be loving, caring and helping one another instead of trying to destroy one another. I hate racism and we need to do everything in our power to fight against it.

I am a black woman (21 years old 10/08/2002), I got chills reading this and I am so touched and grateful there are people who think this way❤ I never really looked at race as a real thing until I got older in my teenage years and realized a lot of things like stereotypes and I never really fit in with any of them so I got teased a lot but it actually is great for me because I make a lot of cool friendships especially with white older men because they have so much knowledge and most are really nice and willing to teach.. but I'm glad to hear there are people very much against racism 🙏🏾

I think the narrator makes a huge error towards the end. Racism still absolutely exists and implying that it doesn’t because we like to “celebrate diversity” now is harmful. I’m not sure who the intended audience is that this channel makes videos for, I’ve thought a few times in the past the phrasing is weird and doesn’t fit the topic, but believing that the world has done a complete turn around since 1944 is unfortunately, not true :/

@Catty200100. THANK YOU 4 saying so! This type of happily-ever-after storytelling is the reason US-concept history is deeply, deeply-deceptive & is incorrectly taught. HAD the power system & dynamic of Racism/WS been abolished, done away-with, eliminated sufficiently to evince Justice-in practice-one could reasonably conclude that people, that the society had “evolved” as this narrator eagerly claims. Regretfully, that is not the case & many, many more Willie Howards have been the Result of sweeping harsh realities under the rug in favor of impressing people falsely-especially, the young who do not know what they can expect, & have no realistic references whatsoever as to why. Had a correct and accurate historical curriculum been developed, there would be no need to attempt to tell the story now, with a clean-up job exonerating the killers, law enforcement, & the “community” of Floridians who never cared one way or the other, as long as they continually receive the presumption of innocence themselves. The true historical data is a WHOLE LOT murkier and fuller of human aberration than this sole incident. The decision & the habitual practice of reciting R/WS as incidental & as happenstance is deliberately deceptive, & is designed to ensure that it continues with impunity. It gives individuals a warped idea that only in such conflagrations as judicial or extra-judicial killings can racism be detected, proven, then looked at for what it is NOT: “some isolated accident.” It’s a system. Until it is accurately stated, presented, & dismantled as such, it will be strengthened, nobody will “evolve,” & its deadly calculus will continue along in Ignorance, just as it has for hundreds of years. ⚖️🇺🇸🕯⚖️

Well as a white man listening to the narrators words. I truly believe that the 3 white men are guilty of murder, kidnapping, assault, reckless use of a firearm, disregard for human life, willful misconduct and a few more. This is a case that should be reopened and the 3 men should be held accountable. Even if they have all passed. Their reputation can still be held accountable. This is my take on what i heard here. I'm sure if I could see actual evidence I would still keep my opinion and most likely add a few more charges. What a pathetic way of life back then. 😢

a dangous future. In Germany the children, student's, are more educated than any student in the world, on the Holocaust. For that reason, it's a constant reminder of what route to not take. In America, that is not the case. Many think it's the past and therefore belong in the past, "I wasn't born then, I wasn't involved". Dangerous future for African Americans, especially given their social state. I'm betting in some way, the past is going to repeat itself on some level.

This is why we need to talk about all of our history, not cherry picked feel good stories sanitized to make things look rosy. To keep anything like this from ever happening again, it is especially important to talk about the reality of history. Racism was, and is, a part of history and shouldn't be ignored. What I learned in school about American history vs what I have learned since are two radically different things, and that is not OK. We should be ashamed of what we call teaching history.

No it does not, it is only going to cause outrage. Injustice has existed in America for a long time, there's no need to remind everyone about it so vividly through cinema. Should this case be reported to the masses, absolutely but reinvisioned and relived, absolutely not. The masses should be informed but not shown the details of this case, it would enrage people. This is why I could not watch the Emmett Till movie and never will, I see no reason in reliving that attrocity it would only piss me off. However, I did watch many stations report on this story and describe what ocurred but I don't want to actually see how they did that innocent child, there's just a difference.

Who’s still angry?? Let’s see, the “power” that the KKK had has diminished quite significantly since the 50s. In fact, their membership has diminished significantly since the 50s. Yet, the Supreme Jackass, who is in the White House, has admitted that Robert Byrd, and Strom Thurmond were his friends and mentors. Both Byrd, and Thurmond absolutely hated black people. Yet, Biden can say “if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you’re not black,” and that’s perfectly acceptable, right? Yet, President Trump was, still is, asked to denounce white supremacy organizations more than 16 times, and he did, and continues to do, but he’s racist. I read your comment, and you’re absolutely right, Black Americans have come a long way since slavery was abolished, but there are many that’ll continue to claim that they’re being oppressed, and your comment just obliterated that. I just don’t understand how ANYONE can think that they’re oppressed, here in America, when they can be whatever they want. They can be doctors, lawyers, athletes, judges, actors/actresses, police officers, teachers, business owners, entrepreneurs, engineers, politicians, and the list goes on and on. Nobody is preventing them from achieving their goal, or dream. The only one that IS preventing them from achieving their goal or dream, are themselves! Period! Unfortunately, there’s still slavery going on all over the world. I honestly don’t know if that’ll ever stop, but I can only hope and pray that it does.

Sadly Willie's father was of the previous generation. Thus he was witness to even harsher punishments meted out to black people, than Willie would have witnessed during his short life. These experiences would have taught Willie's father not to intervene or he would have suffered a worse fate. It's so hard to believe people could have been so cruel to their neighbours, employees, though we have to remember this was also the era of the Nazis, who at this time in Europe were murdering millions of people based on their race alone. Has the world become a safer place for people who are different from WASP's, sadly not. Even after lessons were learnt, supposedly, we still have people being treated differently because of their skin colour, their religion and or sexual orientation. We, even today have still got collective punishment being meted out to huge numbers of innocent people in the midst of wars. The memories of evil deeds are too short to allow real human growth and improvement in the lives those most vulnerable in society. Shameful.

I mean, if you're religious, yes there is a god to hand out the final judgment. For those who aren't religious, it's our duty on earth to deal out justice, not believe in some entity to do it in some afterlife. Praying to god, is what put african americans in the position they were in partly because they've always looked to entity to deliver them from the wrong-doing of man, instead of delivering themselves. It's sad really, praying to the same god, the people that are about to hang you also worship.

I grew up in South Florida and I can tell you that racism was rampant even into the early 70's. My mother took me to a park in West Palm Beach that still had black/white water fountains in the early 60's. I did not understand what it meant at the time because I attended a school that was not segregated. I was not taught to treat people of color differently than white people. It was not until I was older that I finally realized what a terribly cruel world it was for people of color to have to navigate, especially in the "Good ole boy" mentality of the deep south. I can't imagine the fear African American parents must have had raising children in those days.
