This is only the third video I've ever made so be nice to me ;-). I have to say it was really chilling going through all that old civil rights movement footage...

Update 1/27/2010

Hi all, was taking a look at the comments and this video again after a long time away from it and just wanted to add my two cents in.

A lot of the images in this video just make my blood boil (as it should lol) and I'm sure this has a similar effect on a lot of people. 'How could this have happened?' is a question that comes to mind a lot.

How can otherwise normal and nice people be so hateful towards others solely on (sometimes very seemingly ridiculous) assumptions that have no basis in reality? I think an accurate answer would be: conditioning.

What is the worldview of the small child in the Klan outfit? Or the Phelps children holding the hateful signs? And I think it's a good guess that the guy who says he's an ex-gay didn't arrive at that conclusion without a lot of conditioning.

I'm pointing this out because I think it's a good thing to keep in mind when you're confronted with negativity from others or even within yourself. What you're experiencing could be the result of years of conditioning and it's stranglehold on this person or group of people.

And just as important is to be aware of who if anybody stands to profit from all the fanning of the flames of ignorance.

Anyway, thanks for watching and for all the great comments. It's always nice to hear what other people are thinking. Kind of crazy to see how many views this video has gotten, good thing I didn't know all that before I posted it or I would have gotten stage fright lol.

Lyrics:

When you march stand up straight.

When you fill the world with hate

Step in time with your kind and

Let it ring

When you speak against me

Would you bring your family

Say it loud pass it down and

Let it ring

Let it ring to Jesus 'cause he

sure'd be proud of you

You made fear an institution and

it got the best of you

Let it ring in the name of the

one that set you free

Let it ring

As I wander through this valley

In the shadow of my doubting

I will not be discounted

So let it ring

You can cite the need for wars

Call us infidels or whores

Either way we'll be your neighbor

So let it ring

Let it ring

in the name of the man that set you free

Let it ring

And the strife will make me stronger

As my maker leads me onward

I'll be marching in that number

So let it ring

I'm gonna let it ring to Jesus

Cause I know he loves me too

And I get down on my knees and

I pray the same as you

Let it ring, let it ring

'Cause one day we'll all be free

This video is beautifully done. It sets the stage for a day when bigotry and hatred will be defeated. We've come a long way as human beings, but we have a long way to go. Shalom.

I like that you end with hope and positive images - especially a mom. Well done! And I loved the older footage. Good connection. Had I lived there in that era, I'd have had to use the "Colored" fountains, too, as I understand it, because the concept of "colored" was, shall we say, a bit inclusive. Makes me think of the days of "No Irish Need Apply" signs. Interesting how hate is such an equalizer of sorts and how "white" is such a shifting, cultural thing.
