1930s USA - Real Street Scenes of Vintage America - Colorized 

Who did it work for, skippy? I'd like to ask the Black and Hispanic and Queer people from this era how well the "law" worked for them

Where is this footage originally from?

Hello. Life before ultra processed food and fashion, eh.

@@martinfisher3883 yeah, but life before antibiotics and penicilin too..

And surprisingly, ate more calories. The reason they were so slender? They were outside! They weren't on computers or phones, did more mannual labor and walked to places. The other thing was that the food supply chain hadn't been poisoned with artificial this and that, enriched with synthetic products or flooded with fillers of hydrogenized soy, gluten and topped off with high fructose corn syrup!

@@kalinkaata Hi. Absolutely. Antibiotics have saved my mysery more than once as have ultra processed food. Also clothes are my artform. I'm allergic to penicillin, though. I guess my point can aline with yours to say: For every high there is a low, for every yes there is a no. I guess for each of us it's a choice of ' At what price, convenience'? It was a great little montage, though.

@@forapps9364 Hi. Dead right. For me it's become a battle of the simple things vs convenience. Computer /play out? Computer/play out? Hmmm. Play out. Save time, have a ready meal.... Be bored longer or spend the day prepping a meal and get fed on many levels. Have a great day.

make america great again

Our cities were very beautiful back then. The architecture, the art, even the advertising. Everything was so thoughtfully made. I look at pictures of my city from 100 years ago and it looked nothing like it does today, it was really cool looking. The men that built those buildings were true craftsmen.

@@mplslawnguy3389 Do you know anything about Communists and what they do to nations in order to wreck them and take full control? One of the things they do is make everything ugly- art, architecture, fashion, etc. This is in addition to the attempted destruction of nuclear families, tight nit communities, nations/countries, pit women and men against each other, try to make people think there is no sex/gender. Absolute inversion of everything natural and good.

Building construction before modern codes and techniques was a deadly and inefficient affair that often led to shoddy construction with a pretty facade

Born at the outset of the Great Depression, and old enough to remember Pearl Harbor attack (Dec 1941), some call it the "silent generation," but she experienced more history before her 20th birthday than many had in a lifetime. Cherish every moment.

Ask her to write it all down.

В то время ещё небыло толстых людей. Все стройные. Привет из России.

​@@user-qc3um7zj8y Это же годы великой депрессии. И пусть Вас не вводят в заблуждения красочные кадры, которые здесь продемонстрированы. Это кино - всего лишь красочная витрина, а на самом деле все было гораздо прозаичнее и печальнее: толпы голодных, громадные очереди за бесплатным супом, масса безработных. Тогда от голода в США умерло по подсчетам самих же американцев около 6 000 000 человек!

Lucky her to see the Great Depression, radio and television, WW2, nuclear cold war, putting men on the moon, onset of fast food, many more wars, Mr Ed, Playboy and Penthouse, the home computer, pop-up ads on the internet, electric cars, cell phones, crypto currency and of course RU-vid.

Agreed. In fact, the only un-natural thing is turning an otherwise good film into a silly cartoon.

Aaand, no blacks.

@@edharley7254 Aaand, no edharleys, thank God.

@@pacz8114 Wrong. Everyone thought like I did. That's why it was all so nice, MK Ultra deluded fool.

@@pacz8114 Telling how you don't have a rational response. You only report me to your RU-vid masters to shut me up. NO BLACKS are the reason these scenes are so very peaceful, clean, prosperous and joyful.

I've been to the mall at Tanforan (which replaced the old track) many times since the 1970s.

Masons don't let anything hang around too long.

@@donavonmacallister3101 What about Schreiners. I believe one has to be a Mason before becoming a Schreiner?

@@MichaelDamianPHD What did?

I think street sweepers were more common. Yes so clean.

Taxes paid for city services back then, not bloated cop pensions and tax breaks for booming boutique stores and areas.

Have not seen one come down my Street in years

Clean = no immigration

​@@lorraineb.4698 no.. people werent fuckin pigs like today

I think that way sometimes and then remember there were people from that time who didn't see the fashion as nice as we do now. People are more lax on their attire and sometimes downright nasty. but then again, we live in a more capitalized time where even our clothes are manufactured and not tailored, limiting the average joe's choices. classy makeup is hard to find bc thats all made in a factory instead of in front of the customer for accurate match and color use. things are cheaply made and wear down quicker. it takes a lot of time and money to be well kept and for your things to be, especially since the economy went down and women can no longer stay home to focus on such things. the sewing that kept clothes lasting and attentive washing, the thought that goes into putting the family's wardrobe together, heck even the time it takes to go to salons. in an attempt to make money, everything got cheaper. didnt mean to write a novel but i think about it often and my opinion is that its sad that living like they did back then isnt a very accessible choice

Well said. Plus, the USA is huge. Here in Florida, you have to be insane to wear a suit all the time. People ridicule us for being tacky, but that is simply function over form. This place only became comfortably habitable around the early 20th century when A/C became prevalent, although I still love it here in the early 21st.@@sammy2189

There were no blacks.

Also no antibiotics or cars that worked well. But I can see you have your racism priorities straight haha

Yep the only people who get to dress nice and eat non GMO food without chemicals are the "royals" and "globalist elite"......Rothschilds, Rockefellers, etc. They basically stole everything out from under us and are slowly enslaving us all.

63 lol...74 here,you kids today

I'm only 59 dad.

I'm also 63, and have loved old things and antiques since I was a young boy. I would hate to be young these days....

Same as. I belong to a 1940s society and still see this every day and it is very precious. My parents dont understand why I want to live my life like they did in their childhoods.

I'm also 63 and an American history buff.

And no gang graffiti.

@@lilajagears8317 No gangs? This was literally the pinnacle of organized crime in America. Not to mention ethnic gang wars.

@@texaswunderkind There is a difference between org. crime and street gangs. I live in L.A. which has more street gangs than any other city in the U.S.

Today the organized crime has moved up to politics and corporations. It is the beginning of the end for society

In 1930s, any photo taken would be a photo of "good-clean" places. This is not the reality of life at the time.

I share your desire. Make America beautiful again.

It's called a grocery store, you too can go to one and walk around inside today. lol

Really were, unfortunately pedestrian health and safety ruined that over the decades.

Cars were death machines back then with no security system in place. They are only nice to look at but not better.

sadly i must agree. and i'm afraid it will get worse b4 it gets better.

100 years from now, people will watch us in 2123 and say 2023 were the good old days. AI taking over and watch the population decrease. Everyone replaced by robots.

@@dwaynecarroll6098 You'll probably come running back once you see that the Ireland government is no longer working on behalf of the Irish. They're forcing 'diversity' and cultural marxism on the natives.

This was during the Depression. You have no clue what bad days are.

@@robp9746 Have you walked around an average town lately? Half the businesses out of business, homeless people all over the place, drug addicts everywhere....Hell I'm poor as hell...you can't tell me anything about being in a depression that I don't live every fucking day. So bite me robp9746

Agreed, including the Government!

They had a lot of free time on their hands.lol

Well I wouldn't want to be a worker in these times. Trump followers would say the USA was cleaner and above all whiter!

Saw plenty of garbage in the streets and just because people look clean in touched up photos doesn't mean they were clean in real life.

but you try to avoid black areas to live in right?! @@gutschgutscher2609

Most were raised Christian. Go figure 😊✝✝✝

What happened to us?

urban renewal movement hadn’t hit yet

What we wish America could be...

Exactly what I thought as I watched the video! The feeling of nostalgia hit me too. The music definitely helped. The combination is great. I was born in 1979 but I always did feel a sort of nostalgia for the 1930s to 1950s, when I would see pictures of drive in movie theaters, diners, cafes, etc. Even at the age of 8, when I watched *The Sting,* i always felt deep nostalgia, especially with the song from that movie. 😊

not strange really,u lived that era.v have many births.

Not really no

@@1WonderingApe One thing that is better now besides air bags in cars?

@@xxcelr8rs cars are way better than even in the 80's, I remember in the early 70's my electronics teacher saying how good the cars were compared to when he was a kid, the biggest single thing was when the cars went to fuel injection, they would start no problem in 10 below, before that a lot of people wouldn't shut them off so they could get to work. A tank of gas was $6

Back when everyone got dressed up just for the day and were in bed by 10:00 !

1930s were miserable. This is a random home movie of one street in one town from one perspective on one day in one hour, and everything is abstracted from its context and meant to be viewed with nostalgic glasses. Please, do some reading

By that absurd logic, we could show you photos of the richest mansions and wealthiest areas in Somalia and you’d think that was what life is like for average people there. Google images of that and see for yourself - they look like well kept mansions in the Hollywood hills.

If that’s how America was in the 30s, imagine everywhere else, especially in countries that had to deal with the aftermath of ww1 and the Great Depression, which impacted other countries more than the US.

@@AdamsOlympia Yep lmafo these people crack me up. Glad you called it out.

Mate these videos often make working class pictures of Victorian England look nice and inviting. Don't be fooled :P They tend not to take pictures of the bad stuff.

Nah , way to white , safe and racist. Its much better now.

c'est tant mieux, la société à évolué, les femmes d'aujourd'hui ont plus de droits, l'apartheid abolit, camps de concentrations interdit, le travail des enfant abolit, plus de droits pour les personnes LGBT. Quant la société gagne en liberté, il est intéressant de constater que l'on perd le costume 3 pièces, c'est comme ça, on brise les codes pré établis. si vous êtes une de ces situations que je viens de citer, je suis sure que vous êtes content de vivre dans la société d'aujourd'hui qu'a l'époque, même si elle n'est pas parfaite.

Weaponized immigration agenda. All by design. They want us to be a communist 3rd world cess pool.

I absolutely understand the pain of you Native Americans. Those open borders allowing all the Europeans to come in, and then your way of life was gone forever.

@@ammumeme5789 The native Americans lived subsistence lives and had a life expectancy of about 20 when we include their infant death rates. It's a sad and stupid comparison only made by genuine morons.

Yes what a wonderful when not everyone had equal rights.. smh

Thanks!!! ❤️

There were no "simpler times". Every society is complex and full of problems.

@@marcinna8553 although most societies on earth have had their complexities and problems, I remember the 60s and 70s - but sorry dude, yes, they were simpler times.

The difference is back then they didn't have social media. Back then they basically only knew what they were told. The biggest difference between then and now is that society was stable. You had your cultures and social norms and people followed them. In the modern world traditional cultures and values have all been broken down which leads to chaos. Hence the theory order out of chaos we are ruled by. The difference is because we have social media we have access to information outside of elite ruler controlled and disseminated information. This is both a good and a bad thing with pros and cons.

Those times were simpler though in the sense that you didn't have access to information we do today, you didn't have cell phones and instant communication. Yes they had their own problems and it was complex world. But the flavor and feel of it was different. Life was actually simpler and SLOWER paced for the average person. People still had traditional families back then. Relatively healthy stable nuclear families and a sense of community that hadn't yet been broken apart and replaced by big daddy government. Which honestly still is the case if you go to the right country. For the poor and have nots they had it bad, but regardless of what time you are in life is going to suck for some people and be better for others. The point is for the middle class and those that have it decent, the actual life style and feel of existence is going to change depending on the times. Which is what people are talking about. One problem is you dont know what you have until it is gone. Plenty of people have no idea how good they have it, until exposed to something worse. This is true through out human history as it is today. It is an unfortunate aspect of the human condition and experience unless something changes to end that cycle. The real problem is that we are a dumbed down slave species by design. The systems we live under are fundamentally are their core satanic and part of the problem and create a host of problems. With no easy solutions in sight. At least none society is capable of embracing any time soon or quickly. Part of the problem is going to be our systems our rulers. But also our psychology and perceptions which is flawed. Genetically speaking we are an imperfect stupid species. And I think it is design, that we were intentionally genetically dumbed down by either the gods or an alien race that did so to make us more controllable and manageable, because we used to be too smart for our own good. Which there is scientific evidence of and also coincidentally coincides with ancient myths. You see the continued dumbing down of our species every single day and year and decade though, especially recently. So it isn't such a crack pot theory. IT is literally happening in real time currently as we speak. We are living it. The only question is how far back does the dumbing down go? @@marcinna8553

Did you know even a tiktok somebody posted on your feed four seconds ago is a time machine...

Less war? It's literally in between the two worst wars in history, and by far. Many of these say they're from 1939 and the world was most certainly not at all calm in 1939. "There are millions like me that feel the world has gone wrong. You can feel things cracking and collapsing under your feet" - George Orwell 1939

il y avait aussi l'apartheid, et le ku klux clan qui tuait et pendait les noirs américains avec la bénédiction du shérif du compté. On voit bien , pas une seule personne de couleur sur les photos, c'est une des pire époques où on martyrisait une parti de l'humanité, et n'y parlons pas de nazisme et les camps de concentrations en Europe à cette époque. franchement je préfère voir l'avenir d'une société plus tolérant mais pas parfait, que du passé avec une humanité moins évolué du point de vue sociétale.

"She just says that her parents considered those problems to be "adult problems" and did everything they could to shield their children from having to worry about it." Yea as you should, sounds like she had good parents.

Same here. My British parents had conversations I was not privy to, nor should I be at a young age. I had great adoptive parents, despite their problems. I was loved, fed well, clothed, and educated. I never asked my parents for much as I knew we weren't rich even though my Dad was a skilled man, but I was still showered at Christmas even though they went out of their financial way to do so. The 80's I think were the last decade of innocence where people still thought like their parents, without the modern diatribe of indoctrination for political gain or shameless self-promotion. Society will reap it's own negative reward in this respect, and I'll be long dead and laughing my ass off at how pathetic it becomes...and it's already sad and pathetic.

How appropriate

It's amazing how she can remember all that as someone as a 7 years old or younger at the time in the 1930s.

В каждой семье так было. Проблемы взрослых, в которые не посвящали детей. Покажите это видео бабушке.

@@HairOfTheDog2000 What about all the pathetic taboos now?? There are more now than in the past.

This is pathetically obvious.... Of the plethora of taboos that exist now that never did in the past, just a few include so-called appropriation - be it language, culture, etc. The taboo of patriotism, with half the country claiming the US is a terrible place, this is followed by the taboo of religion - which is now unacceptable to many - only if you're a Christian of course, Muslim or anything else you're great. There is also the gun taboo now - something never complained about before on the grand scale it is now. Even being masculine now is a taboo in society, with endless insecure liberals calling everything they don't like "toxic". I mean come on man, the list is endless....

why miss someone when they are in your heart anyway? :)

I saw that too. What the hell happened ?

When Monsanto, BASF, Bayer, etc haven't invented roundup, fertilizer, etc all those harmful chemicals and processed food and beverages.

⁠@@RIZFERDinteresting. Wasn’t aware that Monsanto, BASF and Bayer produced foood

Or black

Maybe it’s better to say that we did not consume so much sugar per person per year. Not to mention high fructose corn syrup. This is a fact!

100 years from now, people will watch us in 2123 and say 2023 were the good old days. AI taking over and watch the population decrease. Everyone replaced by robots.

When you talked to people from this era (like my grandma) you appreciate how skilled people were. People largely did things for themselves. They made their own clothes, grew their own food, knew how to fix things. They had to, it was a much tougher time to live. They weren’t that far removed from the old west. My grandfather was born in 1914, so I’m sure he remembered life without cars for a brief time.

@@mplslawnguy3389 The Ford Model T was introduced in 1908 and other cars were available before then too.

@@waisinglee1509 Yes, but everyone didn't have them, it was a transition period. There were still a lot of people still using horses.

@@mplslawnguy3389 Yes, but in 1916 (your grandpa would be 2 yrs old and probably his earliest memories are from then) the US had 35 cars per 1,000 per people. That ratio is higher than people in India in 2012 which had 24.4 cars per 1,000 people and higher than people in Africa which had 33.6 cars per 1,000 people in the same year. So, in all likelihood, he would have remembered both cars and horses in his earliest years.

Thank you ❤️🙏🏼

all people are natural to this day. food additives more than eating habits cause most weight gain. read ingredients on labels and you will See the main culprit.

@@suppylarue220 Back then the food processing wasn't as good as today. The safety of how food was prepared and pack wasn't well defined as it is today. The regulations of food safety wasn't as stringent as it is today!

@@lox_5017 that's not what I was talking about. today virtually all processed food contains additives which promote weight gain. food safety was already well developed.

@@lox_5017 and yet most stores still sell Coca Cola. These sugary drinks have been proven to cause autism in children. People just need to stay off fast food in general. Cancer rates are rising and they've been higher in the last 30 years than in the last 5 plus decades. We're being poisoned.

Indeed! I remember back even in the 60’s folks still looked like this. Back before corn syrup, saturated fats and various chemicals introduced into the food chain. Obese people were sights to behold in the circus freak shows in those days.

Thanks, Linda. I just added your feedback on my list for coming videos!

Same as now, okay for the wealthy. Absolute poverty for many. Unemployment, homelessness and malnutrition.

Yes, the Great Depression and rise of the Nazi Party in Germany. Amazing time to be alive, if you're a fascist.

@@poppypalais3108 Absolutely NOT the same as now. A hard-working person could establish a store or a company and have great success.

Agreed!!! I am 57 now, and I can tell you I spent my formative years on a 90-acre farm in southern Maine during mid-to-late 1970s, where it was a VERY Normal Rockwell-type of wholesome way to grow up. I wouldn't have traded that experience for anything, and we were slightly less than middle class, but we LIVED richly, as we had meat, fruits and vegetables galore, straight from the farm, so again, we LIVED richly. Our hay field doubled as a makeshift baseball field where the neighbor's boy and myself shagged fly balls until it got dark. An oval-shaped frog pond down the road doubled as an ice hockey rink where my friends and I would spend afternoons skating around playing hockey. Not to go on and on, but the few examples I gave just doesn't happen today, where kids would organically get together to play a game of baseball, flag football, etc. Just doesn't happen, largely because of video games, social media. I truly pity kids having to live in today's society.
