You shouldn't if had slavery u should had paid them right they should have gotten more than 900 a year the farmer's should be ashamed of theirselves and you should give blacks ctedit 4 what they did

Since time and memorial, poor is kept poor, labouring to provide to others, with no justices offered to them. Heaven soon come ...

This is why I feel the way I do about white ppl is why i don't socialize with white people is why i dont have or want white friends.

America is obviously shameless.
Shameless is White Supremacy.
If your not dismantling White Supremacy directly,
your just agreeing to play Whack-A-Mole.

Wow - and all the while we were all being entertained by I love Lucy and the goings on in her fine house

Thank you for this video brother,may ALLAH (swt) continue to bless you inshaALLAH

Augusta, Waycross, Kingsland, Darien, Georgia are all relatively close to me… just makes me visualizing this being my life more real

That man stood there and said they the happiest ppl in the world….. ever eye I see looks super sad…… that man was delusional

Times were hard, thank God the dollar was strong.

I don't see any conservatives making comments here because they like to stay uneducated and will never watch this documentary..

Reparations are in order!!!!

All you had to say was the words "documentary on poverty & white male narrator and British accent" IN ANY ORDER and you got me by the ovaries.
I'm all in to witness the train wreck.

Am I the only one who finds it terribly ironic that this was sponsered by Philip Morris? The tobacco used in their products is still harvested by migrant workers today. With the amount of money they made off of these peoples backs they could have easily stepped in and done something. I realize this was supposed to be about our food. Most of the farmers in this video were probably struggling to survive as well as the migrants. I imagine these people harvested cotton and tobacco as well. So much money for the people at the top so little for the ones at the bottom. This is still the way we live today.

Been at my job 8years now. Not 1 black manager yet. Nothings changed

They”will Pay....sooon🇯🇲🙏😪

They're probably today's confused, uneducated trump supporters!

So you telling me they had to water and feed the caddle ,but not feed and water humans! 😢 Not to mention no stops to use the rest are nothing!!

sad too see that most of us are still living week by week and it is 50 years later. dont seem that they have done too much besides move laws around and make scams to keep the bank alive.

And you people coming across the Southern Border telling African Americans that we are lazy. Who do they think did all the work for centuries before the got here?

I cancel the Yoke of Poverty in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen 🎉
If You agree let your Amen sound the Loudest 🙏🏽💠

My people are NOT “migrants.”’We are Black Americans via 14th Amendment. We are descendants of U.S. chattel slaves who were emancipated via 13th Amendment. REPARATIONS NOW!!!

America you will be held accountable for your selfish deeds.

😢age 29 with 14 children...Wow...

29 years old with 14 children. Hmmm...I wonder what the problem could be here.

that dead look in the children's eyes, they know in their hearts it isn't gonna get any better

Man imagine having to sleep outside as a black person down there back then? Better not be alone.

How much do you make a day, answer 1.00. How many kids do you have, answer 14

"We used to own our slaves, now we just rent them."
That line makes me sick.

This is why Amerikkka will be on Fire & Europe will be a graveyard!

The reaping has already begun……look at the founders seeds birthrate…….its at Zero!

14 children at 29?😢
