With all due respect Mr. Jackson, that guy was not your friend. No friend would ever use such a word. All respect to Mr. October.

This is American history here folks. We’re lucky to have Reggie around to speak on it.
-
He was never your friend. 😢
-
Just another Alabama hero! Bear Bryant folks…as long as Blacks were running his ball, making him comfortable and reassuring him he was in charge he could tolerate us!

Racists are gonna do what racists do....
-
Why are we surprised? There’s a person you work with at your job right now that says the same type of things about you. This is America.

You can still feel his pain today

I'm from birmingham Alabama Still live here . And the story he's telling is all facts .
-
The fact that he’s clearly naming names places n dates is key to the facts of his experience.

😂😂 The funny thing is people like PAUL FINNBAUM KNOW this stuff!!!! Talking about he INTEGRATED football at BAMA. No he did it so they could freaking WIN
-
Wow! Reggie Jackson is telling the HARD truth about his experiences. This type of racism happened/happens all the time, especially in Alabama. I am just glad Reggie Jackson doesn't mind having these "uncomfortable" conversations out loud. It needs to be heard! 👏👏
-
Bear Bryant saw nothing wrong with saying what he said that is really a huge part of the problem
-
Let Reggie speak!! Keep telling the truth!!
-
I'm a 75 year old Black man and didn't have to wait 50 years to know that Bear Bryant was a racist. He just had that look about him.
-
Protect and give Reggie Jackson his flowers!!! Its long over due!
-
To believe that someone is less than you based on race and color is ignorant.
-
He wasn't your friend, sir, period!
-
This is the type history that Ron Desantis wants to erase.
-
Dam Bear Bryant and the people who loved him

What Bear Bryant said then openly is what sport owners and managers says behind closed doors today "don't fool yourself and think any different"
