Ain't Scared of Your Jails

This presentation of how people restrained themselves through acts of non-violence are very motivating. It seems like it would take a lot of practice in order to keep yourself from retaliating. The quote,"Our negros are happy" seems like such an outlandish statement. It sounds like the "South" thought of themselves as owning them. The film was very inspirational.

  1. Yea that seems like people just shut their eyes to this problem. It is sad how much they had to do to get attention. If this problem was solved sooner who knows how much different this would of turned out.

  3. That statement about "Our negros" made me kinda mad when he said it, they were acting as if the "black southerners" were still their property and I agree with Raymond, it showed how little things really had changed.
