=== Generational Hatred Revealed (03:28) ===

[00:00:00]  So this black woman right here said she used to be racist until she moved into a red state.
[00:00:06]  Yeah, some of the nicest people on this planet are white people in red states, especially in the south.
[00:00:13]  Check out what she got to say.
[00:00:14]  Yeah.
[00:00:16]  Two years ago.
[00:00:19]  Two years ago, I was racist.
[00:00:23]  I hated white people.
[00:00:25]  I didn't think I hated white people.
[00:00:27]  Let me be real.
[00:00:28]  I didn't think I did until the Lord checked my heart and he said to me, you know, you're racist, right?
[00:00:36]  And I said, nah, you can't be telling me that I ain't racist.
[00:00:39]  Like, black people can't be racist, right?
[00:00:43]  And he revealed to me the hatred I have in my heart was passed down from a generational teaching that was taught through family and whatnot.
[00:00:55]  Now, when that was revealed to me, that's when my family and I, we moved down south to South Carolina.
[00:01:03]  I'm originally from Maryland.
[00:01:06]  I'm from PG County.
[00:01:08]  So in that area, it's predominantly black.
[00:01:11]  That's all you see is just, you know, black, everything, just black richness, the melanin, everything.
[00:01:15]  That's all you see.
[00:01:16]  Beautiful representation in the area.
[00:01:19]  That's all I knew, literally, until I moved away.
[00:01:24]  And I didn't think I had hatred towards whites until I was around whites down south.
[00:01:30]  I didn't know how to feel about them.
[00:01:32]  I didn't know how to necessarily act around them.
[00:01:35]  Now, mind you, I have worked with white people before.
[00:01:38]  I have, but I still had my mixed views about them due to what I was taught.
[00:01:44]  And that's just that.
[00:01:46]  I know exactly what she's talking about.
[00:01:48]  Like, when we were kids, my mama used to put us in front of all this, all this content that made us dislike white people.
[00:01:57]  Remember, we was watching Roots?
[00:01:59]  Yeah.
[00:02:00]  Yeah.
[00:02:01]  And did our mother tell us all these horrible stories when she was growing up in the South?
[00:02:07]  She grew up through Jib Crow, though.
[00:02:09]  Yeah, she went through that.
[00:02:09]  Mama was born in the 1940s, right?
[00:02:11]  So my mama seen some stuff.
[00:02:13]  Yeah.
[00:02:14]  Right?
[00:02:15]  And so I totally understand where this woman's coming from.
[00:02:19]  But here's what made me look at white people differently.
[00:02:24]  When I brought my children to school down south in South Carolina, and the city that we live in is very conservative based.
[00:02:32]  So it's not just a Republican state.
[00:02:34]  It's also conservative based too.
[00:02:37]  And the way how those teachers listened to me when I addressed my concerns about my children and their education and everything, it blew my mind how understanding they was very compassionate.
[00:02:56]  I remember them even apologizing to me for what I went through with PG County schools because Prince George's County schools, for anyone that lives there, they know it is horrible.
[00:03:08]  Horrible.
[00:03:10]  It is so bad.
[00:03:11]  I mean, the system is beyond messed up.
[00:03:13]  Like, it's just bad.
[00:03:16]  So when they saw the issues that my kids have, they placed them in developments that they need to be in school.
[00:03:23]  And when I tell you, two years later, my children are doing so well.

=== Finding Grace in Red States (04:58) ===

[00:03:28]  They have progressed so fast and it's such a blessing to me.
[00:03:34]  And remember, I was telling my sister, I said, I wish kids in PG County, I wish that they can experience this.
[00:03:44]  I was like, every kid in Prince George's County should experience what my kids are experiencing down here in South Carolina.
[00:03:53]  And it grieved me.
[00:03:54]  I said, it's not fair that these policies that they have in place in Maryland and all the people do is vote blue in Maryland because that's all we know.
[00:04:06]  But moving away from a blue state to a red state, it gave me an awakening that I needed to have.
[00:04:12]  And like, honestly, when the Lord revealed my heart, as far as like how I felt about people who are not my race, I had to repent, of course.
[00:04:20]  It gave me a sense of grief for myself on the things that I missed out on due to the racism that I had in my heart about whites.
[00:04:30]  But now, fast forward, I welcome everyone with such love and respect.
[00:04:35]  I do.
[00:04:36]  I really do.
[00:04:37]  And what's crazy is the perspective that we have is because we grew up in a poor white neighborhood.
[00:04:44]  We lived in all kinds of neighborhoods, but we also lived in a poor white neighborhood, a white neighborhood.
[00:04:50]  Poor has nothing to do with it.
[00:04:51]  We lived among white people.
[00:04:53]  A lot of black people, and she points that out, black people who live only among blacks and that's their only experience in life.
[00:05:00]  You're going to be racist because black people are racist.
[00:05:04]  Well, the thing is this, Keith, when you're black and you're looking at black TV shows, all your friends are black.
[00:05:09]  Your movies are black.
[00:05:10]  Your music's black.
[00:05:11]  All you know is black.
[00:05:12]  They figure you that white people are racist.
[00:05:15]  Yeah.
[00:05:15]  Of course, when you become, if you're a black person and you only accustomed to being around black people, when you get around white people, you're going to have this anxiety.
[00:05:23]  I call it racial anxiety.
[00:05:25]  We had it when we transferred from one school to another school, and that school that we transferred to was all white people.
[00:05:31]  Yeah.
[00:05:31]  And that school was so much better.
[00:05:36]  I didn't get bullied.
[00:05:38]  I didn't get called gay or anything.
[00:05:42]  What's it got to do with it?
[00:05:43]  Yeah, they always said we had pretty eyes and we was merely vanilla.
[00:05:47]  We were gay looking.
[00:05:49]  So they called us Prince too.
[00:05:53]  Yeah.
[00:05:54]  But her moving to a conservative area, predominantly white, that's the best thing that can ever happen to a black liberal or black progressive.
[00:06:04]  The way how red states with conservative based cities, because I know every red state doesn't have conservative based cities, there are red states that have Democrat cities.
[00:06:16]  I'm not talking about them.
[00:06:17]  I'm talking about red states with conservative city base, like all red all around.
[00:06:23]  I noticed how the local businesses invest in the schools.
[00:06:29]  I noticed how the teachers are happy to teach the children.
[00:06:33]  I noticed how these school classrooms are not overpopulated.
[00:06:37]  I noticed that these teachers are caring, they're loving.
[00:06:40]  They make you feel involved.
[00:06:41]  They make you know that they basically let you know that you are not alone.
[00:06:46]  Like we are a team.
[00:06:49]  And they don't dismiss your feelings.
[00:06:52]  They don't gaslight you.
[00:06:54]  They don't do any of that.
[00:06:55]  Like you actually feel like an actual human being being around these people.
[00:07:01]  And I'm talking about all kinds of people, black, white, Hispanic, there's all kinds of people that live down here where I live at.
[00:07:06]  But I want kids to experience the same things that my kids are experiencing in my hometown.
[00:07:16]  I don't know how it could be done because again, Maryland has been blue for decades.
[00:07:23]  I mean, decades.
[00:07:24]  It's been blue since I was a baby.
[00:07:28]  And it was blue before then.
[00:07:29]  I don't even think if Maryland was ever red before.
[00:07:32]  I can't even recall, but I believe every kid should experience that type of level of education.
[00:07:40]  I believe that every parent should be able to have the opportunity, you know, the option of the child going to a different school, like school choice.
[00:07:47]  I believe that kids should just be able to experience those things.
[00:07:51]  So I don't know if there's a way for Maryland to turn red.
[00:07:57]  Oh, there ain't no way in hell.
[00:07:59]  That'll never happen.
[00:08:00]  All them sub-Saharans up there, ain't no way in hell.
[00:08:02]  And you know what?
[00:08:03]  Your experience in a red state in that red area that's predominantly conservative or Republican, the reason why you're having such a pleasant experience is because you're a good person and your kids is open to learning.
[00:08:17]  Y'all was open to listening and adhere to new information.
[00:08:22]  Yeah.
[00:08:23]  You could take a lot of those people from Maryland and put them down now.

=== Openness to New Information (00:53) ===

[00:08:27]  Soon as they feel like they've been disrespected or you criticize them in any kind of way, they're going to scream racism.
[00:08:34]  You're talking to me that way because I'm black.
[00:08:37]  You did that to my son because he's black.
[00:08:39]  You're open to new information.
[00:08:41]  So it's been an eye-opening experience for you.
[00:08:44]  And I seriously doubt you was actually racist.
[00:08:46]  You had a prejudice against white people.
[00:08:47]  You wasn't racist.
[00:08:49]  But now, since you had lived around whites, senior schools were whites, now you know those prejudices, they were stupid.
[00:08:57]  Yeah.
[00:08:58]  You know?
[00:08:58]  But you was never really racist.
[00:09:00]  Because a racist would have never moved to South Carolina.
[00:09:04]  A racist would never accept white people.
[00:09:07]  Right.
[00:09:07]  Yeah.
[00:09:08]  This is really brave of her to put this video up.
[00:09:11]  Yeah.
[00:09:12]  So.
[00:09:13]  That's a good, strong black woman.
[00:09:15]  Ain't it, though?
[00:09:16]  Mm-hmm.
[00:09:17]  Damn, that woman put on a damn good show.
[00:09:20]  Yeah.
