Thank you! Racists always wanna play dumb like this was several hundred years ago. The people subjected to this are still alive--and so are the people who perpetrated it.

OG been fly and gangsta his whole life

He lowkey look like that guy from Shake it Up!

OG got a picture drinking from the Whites Only Fountain Thug Shit 😃😆🤣

@LenardoDeVinci This is why I stopped using Twitter. Because you can have a post that is so beautiful, informative moving and then you come in the comments and it’s nothing but ignorant dumbasses that should’ve been swallowed.

He's still got the swag 😎

OG TRIPLE TRIPLE 🫡

🥹🥲

Keep living the victimhood mentality and see where it gets you

Life was better with those signs

Insecure White racists always find they envious asses to ANY posts about black people. A true obsession.

Damn the dude from that iconic picture is still alive today! That’s a stark reminder of how close we are to racism jim crow laws.

That's the best "I HATE YOU" I have seen ❤

INCREDIBLE. I had no idea he was still alive. Wow this is awesome to see. The brother actually got to be old. The energy in that room looks electric.

Precisely. Both of my grandparents (maternal) who lived through this are still alive. Despite this, my grandfather still served this country, but returned from war only to be denied military benefits and respect due to his race.

Holy shit you had to drink in a different drinking fountain oh the horror!!

I honestly don't understand this video 😂 Am I the only one??

Went to the Birmingham Civil Rights Museum on Juneteenth, and got pissed off again at how this stuff was just yesterday damn near. Also realized how strong our people were. We don’t have many movers and shakers like this today, a lot will stand for nothing and fall for anything.

What a fucking G

Yt ppl mad about the yt only signs their grandparents where putting up! This is what yt supremacy was all about and now yall don’t want to face the fact that you are still like this lol! 😂

Man saw the opportunity for a dope photo and took it an knew change could come

What is this some sort of retard convention?

White people in the comments mad about a 1 minute video.

Fun with cohesion and adhesion.

It's Cecil J Williams, The picture is of him back in 1956, drinking from a "WHITE ONLY" fountain. ♥️

Our parents, grandparents, and ancestors should be venerated!

Please tell me I'm not the only one that doesn't know this old man... he must have lived a good life given how people are happy to see him

NEVA SCARED!!!

@Ejohnson199428 It wasn't long ago at all.both my parents,not grandparents,PARENTS,were born in the jim crow South.
