was stunning development for me. how did i not know about this? i didn't know that this was a phenomenon that there were many african americans who went to russia in the, in the thirty's, in the 1920s infinity is several 100 african americans move to the soviet union. and many of their descendants still live in russia. and you know, no rush, presto, yes, you choose to need to be in your way, said richard london issue. the russians that i meet here, they 1st like pay your partner, that when i speak russian and then wait, wait, wait. the nation that was go back home, black americans suffer from racism and a complete lack of prospects. a just come up with some of the real and i'd be losing sure to migrate them dealers,

nation one by one provider. so they decided to leave everything behind and start a new life in a country about which they knew almost nothing at all. some of the african americans who went to soviet union in the 1930 found great success monet, though if you don't belong to me, you know as much. i think it's less than that. you go now almost a 100 years later, a history is repeating itself. my great grandfather george times, went to russia on probably the worst time to go anywhere. why not mean when i come here? ah

ah, my dear, the goal is to hold them off and i need to send them what i'm what i'm showing in my bubble. skip, which is what it is as close to the other screen. dealing dealership is short. i made a gun, some bullying slip. my bumps, kavinski malicious when you posting it to show me a me to get mixed race. couple horse. that's an issue in the united states, i think primarily because of, of the jim crow laws of that, that intense hatred of african americans. so this notion that you could mix was, was absolutely impossible for many whites to accept that it was illegal in many states. but you know, my bumps convinced service because so you know what we're up with them was tanya

shuttle and they deem it come when use my society is more of a receipt below, which is probably cartoon that says, this is a new country being she, since it has the constitution that actually sense that they're opposed to racial and gender and all different kinds of discrimination. my grandfather george time is from us mitchell in virginia and he ended up in rush in the most peculiar way. she was a friend, an amazing contract with the ministry on cultural in russia. and he pretty much got into both and ended up in the soviet union in 1930. it's important to remember that this was the period of the great depression,

and it was also a period in which the she'll be a government was doing massive recruitment people with technical skill. ah, he graduated university of the agriculture. if there is no career moves, there's no jobs and there's so much discrimination. what are you supposed to do? he went to a country where she had no clue what was going on. you watch rush on the news. so that union communism. why would you want to go there? george time had a dream and he found a solution. and the she made history. some of the african americans who went to soviet union and the 1930s, found great success. you look at lloyd patterson and his son,

james patterson. james patterson became a national icon. the baby in the famous film circuits or, you know, be the movie circuit as an extraordinary story behind it. i think it was said to be stolen. favorite in the opening scene as a woman running from an angry crowd, threatening her and throwing rocks at her. realize that the bundle she's been carrying is her black child. this german impresario, as the climax of the film,

revealed the truth to the audience in the circus that she has a black child. and of course, the soviet responses. so what do we care? we don't care if he's purple or pocket out it. and then he, those jimmy is pass to various members of the audience, coey thing, him a lullaby. and one of the languages of the, the, me, me, i mean, it couldn't be more sac or in and more propagandistic. but, but it hit all the right nerves at the time is incredibly popular. even the song is, should have gotten i should have that on my dad. and i was even a sort of a de facto anthem of the soviet union.

i me, it's definitely fair to say that the soviet union where the prominent leader in anti racism at the government level. if it's not you still in the kitchen again, i'm not sure. i think you went with what was, what was that little black boy from the circus movie is now 87. he was born and raised in the soviet union. he served in the navy as a sub mariner and he became an author. he wrote short stories in the early 19 ninety's after the soviet union. jim patterson moved to the usa to his father lloyd patterson's homeland to translate his work into english. you now lives alone in

a social apartment in washington. the pin on me monday or she'll move, they're going to go or turn in lo mein. but then we shall all new meal through together. we shall be very boone, the splendid. well, 3 new, say that the be only, we will news categories, mood, jim's father patterson, like many other african americans move to the ussr to work on a contract basis. but he loved the country so much. he stayed and started a family here. he travelled in circles and the soviet union in moscow that he would not have in the united states. he had a wife. ready 3 sons,

career, he was busy all the time. his wife was vera. at allah, she was a fairly well known designer stage designer. what he saw at that time in 1932 in stollins moscow. however, the stranger might sound now he saw lots of opportunity there. oh, oh. oh oh no. they may again the home for the guiding dolls. pretty soon after that i'm good. got pallet, immigrant, american on stem our solution. look, assume them assume in the food you good car yelton's kicking us today.

a little loopy over to my question lunch. so there's been some boy who did racism, exist in the soviet union see up when you mileage the myoma you on your business level. promote order, watching up what happened after the iron curtain fell, when the descendants of those african americans could return to america, their ancestral homeland geothermal point and sub smart them with that. what's the deal with and why now a 100 years later is russia again attracting african americans? i look wish you know what the join me when it was it could have long distance away . you've got to go.

i have often said transparency for the powerful receipt for the bell. s kids about privacy. what people care about is power. jiliana sons has become a symbol of the battles of brevity. information is power. that's what's going on. a huge struggle with governments and corporations who want to keep information secret and others who democratic rights should be pushed forward. and people have a right to know what to do. watch how much help shifts the conversation around transparency. see what that battle has done to him. i feel like julian's life might be coming to an end. we are in a conflict situation with the largest and most powerful employer in such a situation. it's remarkable. it's alive.

ah the ah oh, you know what it says i'm you know, it'll come in and enjoy the fresh start when they get there because there's something you would

pretty much got. that's legible. yep. what's for, what's going on with the film we use what that sort of looks like. you want to do it as i'm sure it seems some of them when you've got the west point, we're not for them. so we'll just show the peach coming from the meals are kind of the same. i was given your logo to bring me as a senior on one of those live with some coaches, but are one why do you think that asked him, i mean on, i'd be, we still live the,

just the actual tools that i see on the, on your list in modern russian, it would be hard to find anyone who hasn't heard of you in a hunger. she's worked on television since the late 19 eighties. hosting several popular talk shows, including russia's 1st tv show to discuss sex questions quickly the school. we can also see where, where the initial v media of the wiley's the see at the course or me up the well, i'm sure you get my link just especially i took the children i did, you know for those that are do less all the more doesn't the be lose at the movie. do you mean you my lease. i mean yeah. which been have nick i when you good. i mean, last year was

a 1000000 times his father, george times moved to the soviet union in the 1930s along with many other african americans. and settled in the back soviet republic where he helps develop cattle breeding on collective farms. that's where amelia spent her early childhood. ready there believe the good. they knew what union that i really built unless the deal is look at them. i must school. she just says 2 of them got the bank. i guess she will and then move it. but i will sit down with the resume, found that, you know, the, the trends that i see on one me to get seals as well. so if you want me to get the book so that in that i, susan got a chance to go from the see similar to so it's, i'm sorry, is it the book that i see them need to go live all the new, my mama rosley into i mean, you start cooking when you,

when you will problem, but i mean, it comes to me, what you did when you published, when you bring it to service because they knew that there was racism throughout europe. but if they went to london or paris, they could stay in the very best hotel was that's not what they experience in america. ah, daily life or an african american in the thirty's was frustrating. there would be parts of town that you would not be able to go through or you would only be allowed to go to a certain stores. if there were accommodations for black, there would be separate toilets, for example, for white, it would be separate water fountains and they will usually be lower quality. i've thought about this many times. i don't even, i don't know why more african americans didn't try to go to other places.

maybe it just didn't occur to them for go to patient for me to patient. you know, when you're in this junior i was because i still would still be kept up with them. i was slow about, the jelly is still in the deal would love to connect you with the union. ah, when you see the union collapsed, the defendants and those african americans had the chance to travel and to see their ancestral homeland for the 1st time. george times his grandson yogi at times was one of the few who went to the us in the early 19 ninety's webpage, didn't about acoya with theory, which there to sure. so of course are you the crypt? sure. for most boys or as will not be news or dot org you are all she gets in the you down as you know more than that, i'm not sure. but you could be, you know,

love to get to for you to just financially and for you. why is that? i'd make up my mind to move to russia. i want to leave a country where i was facing discrimination, racism me, have we overcome all the racial problems and then i found the 1930. no, not at all. if you look at the recent events, all too frustrating, similar to decades past the situation, i remember like it was yesterday and i asked for help from the police where it was like an emergency. and then i became the victims as 3 police officers grabbed me and just throwing me down on the ground. and i had a bruise in my hand,

goose and my arm. i thought they were going to kill me, that they're going to shoot me and little by 3 case in the office. it was the work experience of my life that i probably not want to ever, ever lived again. i was so sick and because i, i grew up in a normal or orthodox family. you know, we're not game there is, you know, no one has a guy, and we don't have any hoodie, i thought the places are to help me. why aren't they helping me? it's history that's repeating itself over and over and over again. and it hasn't been fixed. my great grandfather george times very that combination 19, you know, did the great depression. so it's moving. it's the same thing, just a different version of the the use and

i been living in moscow for one year. exactly. i teach english. i'm a teacher. i feel free. it's living in rush. i'm in rush. no matter what time it is. i can walk outside and i'm a i was sitting outside the metro movable bench area. i remember the police officers to productive walking towards us and my heart speeding fast like why? because you know, living in america, the police, you will try your traumatized and i was like talk, i'm scared. and then so my friends just moved here from america. she, russian like really 5 minutes later. that same police officer comes back with the biggest bouquet of flowers, a stranger, and tells me welcome to russia. you belong here. me. i do the line

mentioned me just flew across canvas ledger. listen, my kids creation, burning us tell it says can you sell it new york and national usage as published because the smoke that i knew which in got just for jan. talk at mama as well as reason. it took me a sledge also into more talk. she tells me, i know, and i don't i just because she's living jim start me literally literally in the news. is it saying

you can justify me? i used enough in the surgery. the push to me is this different? believe me. it's just knowing that i i ah, oh right now, there are 2000000000 people who are overweight or obese. is profitable to sell

food that is fatty and sugary and faulty and addicted. not at the individual level. it's not individual willpower. and if we go on believing that will never change, that industry has been influencing very deeply. the medical and scientific establishment, ah, what's driving the reason for them is corporate. me a warming for the medical, but awarding the feet had become even one pocket and was unfolded. watershed moment . okay. down in history books. as maki, beginning of the end of american pre eminence. this is the end of america. i
