Reggie Jackson Remembers And He's NOT Alone
32,153
Published 2024-06-29
Jackson, in an open forum in Birmingham, was asked if he were a better person having come up through the city where Jim Crow laws existed and whether he was stronger after enduring the social inequities in Birmingham.
Jackson, who attended the historic Rickwood Field Game in Birmingham, was not a guest of Major League Baseball. He was not a paid guest for Fox. He came to pay respects to the Negro Leagues and the passing of Willie Mays.

Before someone says it...this is NOT VICTIMHOOD...This was HIS EXPERIENCE! All power to Reggie & all who had to endure!

Reggie is not lying. I was born in 58 and I lived through it.
-
Reggie Jackson Give a MAGA History Lesson. God Bless Him.
-
Man... I was born in '67. Had to grow up in that racial climate.
-
I’m from Africa and I know enough about the history of black folks in the US for it to be unfathomable that people like Byron Donalds exist.
-
Kills me how so many racists are angry / annoyed by him saying he should be grateful. Gratefully to experience racism? Funny how they never do this to any other group
-
I was born 1958 in Louisiana. Louisiana is still backwards.
-
Thank you Reese for this segment. I am retired now but remember as a child having to go to the back window of a restaurant to order food because we were not allowed inside the restaurant. We can’t go back to that America.

Those who don't remember history are condemned to repeat it!
-
You're right. We do need to hear more of these stories. Reggie brought me to tear. Byron and Tim especially need to hear it.
-
I think we need more black elders to come out and tell their story along with what they remember during the time.

My late mother told me how virulently racist Alabama was growing up under Jim Crow and the Ku Klux Klan in the 1950’s and 60’s. People were being terrorized on the daily. I am so grateful for the strength and tenacity our ancestors had to have to endure such cruelty and horror of those times.
-
I just wanna know where is Tim Scott & his “supporters” are and what they gotta say about this!
-
Some of us have become complacent with the progress that civil rights era has granted us. Now is not the time to be content. All that has be gained through the sacrifice of those before us is at threat of being taken away.
-
I live near the KKKlan & their headquarters! I’m in the midworst aka Killinois! They are all over this state!
-
1960 here. Born in Illinois. Got chased by mobs (at 12 years of age). Spit on. Denied jobs. So I don’t remember when Amerikkka was great.
-
We don't have to imagine what Hank Aaron went through when chasing Babe Ruth's career homerun record in the '70s. He got death threats.
-
I was born in 1964 in Georgia. My family has stories!
-
Yes. 1960 was another era todays generations cannot fathom. Never again. Vote Blue.
