Some interesting color video of Jackson, Mississippi in 1938.
*ping of interest*
I thought this was gonna be about Micheal.
Wow that is incredible. I love the cars. Actually they were more like boats back then. I always wonder that if liberals don’t get their way and mankind and civilization survives, what are people in the future going to think of today? Digital video doesn’t degrade so in theory people 1000, 10,000 even 100,000 years from now can look back on videos made today and it will look like they were taken a second ago. Like say for example in the year 15,239, the liberal disciples of the worldwide religion Obamanism can look back at the year 2013 and see their Messiah in action. You ever see this film? Supposedly this is the oldest surviving movie ever made from 1888.

No one is barefoot.
Sissimippy ping.
NO WAY!!!!! I can’t believe such a video even exists!!!! I’ll check it out.
I love old footage/snapshots/postcards of American towns and cities. From the 1800s all the way up to the 1960s. After that, things start looking too ugly.
aw... never mind. I thought it was going to be Michael Jackson in color in 1938.
Koda Chro—oo-—oome

you should see the Zoo and the area around it now.
I saw it 15 years ago. It was scary then. Had a cop stop me and tell me I shouldn’t be in that neighborhood. I was visiting a friend who lived with her elderly grandmother at the time. Once granny passed on said friend got the heck out to Byram.
Thanks so much.
Watching NOW!
I was thinking that if you lived in Mississippi at the time, and went to Jackson, it must have felt like going to New York City, compared to the rest of the State.
Tks
My folks would been 5 and 6 then
Wonderful find. Thank you so much!
The comments read like a race thread here
Well, keep in mind there was a large part of the population that could not go to those restaurants, shops, or go enjoy that lake.
