It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood and I did this one because so many of you asked for it so I hope you enjoy it! As is becoming increasingly frequent here, a company have already claimed this video for monetisation before it even got published (because of the spoken lyrics in this case). I'd greatly appreciate if you could boost the channel by joining the Patreon community www.patreon.com/DianeJennings If that isn't doable, no probs a LIKE, COMMENT or SHARE of my videos on social media help this little channel get pushed out to new viewers too using the mysteeeeerious algorithm we hear so much about! Thankee!!!

Fred Rogers was a genuinely good and decent man. He not only talked the talk, he walked the walk.

@KirkFields 3 года назад

👍☺️

@dstone1701 3 года назад

On of the things Fred said repeatedly was that kids were WAY smarter than adults credited them, and they can tell when they are being talked down to. He always treated kids as intelligent, reasoning creatures. He used simple words to explain complex topics in a way that respected kids' intelligence.

@joeday4293 3 года назад

Everyone who ever met him said that he was the same Mister Rogers in real life as the one on TV changing into his cardigan and sneakers. The same kind, calm, measured voice, making you feel like the most special kid in the world. Great, now I'm ugly crying.

@milhousevanhoutan9235 3 года назад

He truly did. He also struggled with anger and feelings of inadequacy, especially later in life. It's one of those things where you realize that Fred Rogers was a man. A great man but still just a man. He's an example of what we could all be and should aspire to be.

@chrisreed3040 3 года назад

@groofay 3 года назад

It's doubly striking because the guy he's testifying to, John Pastore, was notorious for being a stoic hardass. And it took Mr Rogers just a few minutes to reduce him practically to tears. That's just another reason this testimony is historic.

If anyone was in the direct presence of a force like Mr. Rogers and wasn't moved after a while, they may be beyond all hope.

@StellaWaldvogel 3 года назад

Both Fred Rogers and John Pastore were raised in an era when children were expected to be "seen and not heard" and not to show anger, sadness, etc. So yeah - Pastore could relate. Although the expectations are different today and we know it was unhealthy to squash kids' emotions like that, I think it's still relevant. Adults these days are often overworked and stressed - they don't want to be bothered. The kids still suffer. So Mr. Rogers is as relevant now as ever.

@adamwatson7662 3 года назад

I'd further like to add, this is a time when public funding was being cut back- which is why Fred Rogers was going to court. He believed the funding for his program would be more beneficial for the community than cutting back funds. He sold his reason for why his show benefited the kids and their health and the judge realized the importance of Rogers program compared to other programs. Mr. Rogers is in heaven, and he is remembered for his saintly character.

No ads, no "reality" TV posing as "documentaries", no pseudo-science for ratings, no replaying the same special effects over & over in a program to eat up time. PBS is the only station we watch in this house. PBS also introduced Celtic Woman to the world. I saw a Chicago concert on PBS (before YT), and I saw ELO, too!

He handled the situation they threw at him with exactly the type of grace and kindness you'd expect, even when dealing with an who he thought was an employee not treating him well out of view of anyone else. They seemed rather sorry at having caught Mr. Rogers in their prank and apologized to him. You can find it on youtube somewhere.

"Yes I've been talking to you for years. But you heard me today" - I remember that's the quote that really hit me when I read the story. It was from "officer" Clemmons recounting his time with Mr. Rogers. You can look up the full story (and you absolutely should if you haven't seen it yet) but the last part was: [Clemmons] says he’ll never forget the day Rogers wrapped up the program, as he always did, by hanging up his sweater and saying, “You make every day a special day just by being you, and I like you just the way you are.” This time in particular, Rogers had been looking right at Clemmons, and after they wrapped, he walked over. Clemmons asked him, “Fred, were you talking to me?” “Yes, I have been talking to you for years,” Rogers said, as Clemmons recalls. “But you heard me today.” Seriously, Mr. Rogers was a literal saint

@jenniferbaumgarden9293 3 года назад

It was beautiful when Clemmons spoke about this in the documentary film. He said that it meant so much to him because he was coming to terms with his sexuality. Mr. Rogers still loved him just the way he was:)

Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood first aired the year my parents were born and ran until I was 8 years old. He literally helped raise multiple generations of children and taught us to be kinder, more compassionate people (to others and to ourselves, too). I don't think there's been anyone on television since who prioritized teaching kids emotional intelligence like he did. I'm so grateful for what he's given us.

I honestly feel we NEED Mister Rogers to come back again. HE is still needed today for our children and for our future children. HE, I feel was the one person on tv who really cared to teach children how to be respectful to others, how to care for others, how to love each other, and HE had a wonderful way of teaching children about very SERIOUS topics that oftentime are shunned away from children because no one don't seems to know how to talk about those topics to children in a way for them to understand it without having to go into graphic details about it. I TRULY feel we need his episodes back again on tv, sure you can always watch it on youtube, but there are children who do watch and listen to media on tv. If feel that some of youth of today are becoming more aggressive, rude, and disrespectful to not only to their teachers but to their own parents as well, and that all has to do with what they see and hear on tv, youtube, social media, in music, and etc. You have kids as young as Pre-k talking about lyrics to songs that are meant for adults and some of those songs talk about very graphic things. I say this because I work as a teacher in different schools and I grew up watching Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. I remember always watching his episodes on tv when I come home from school or even in the morning sometimes and I was always fascinated when he talked, I enjoyed it when he tooks us to the imaginary world of "make believe" and when he presented how things are made and when he went out to the community to introduce us to the neighbors who live there. He was a special man who truly wanted to teach children how to grow up to be respectful, hard working adults. I just wish we could have more shows like Mister Rogers for children to watch today.

The moment when you realize Mister Rogers not only cares, but also has the guts to go where no one else will dare - when Daniel the Cat (still in black and white) asks "What does assassination mean?" From that moment on, every censor in the world stopped, and instead of immediately hitting the panic button, they were so awe struck that they put a figurative "Do not censor Fred Rogers" sticker on their console. He knew exactly what to say, exactly when to say it, and most importantly exactly HOW to say it. He is the one thing that the most politically polarized opposites can still agree upon.... and we need him now, almost more than ever.

Cant say enough nice things about Mr. Rodgers, but one of my favorite things he ever did was on race relations. At a time when black kids and families in America where _literally_ being doused with beech to keep them out of "white pools" Mr. Rodgers had a black actor on his show dressed as a police officer and he shared a small moment of soaking their feet together in a kiddie pool because it was hot out and, as friends, they wanted to cool down together. Rodger's even shared his towel with him and made a point to dry his own feet off with the same towel after his black friend did. That SMALL moment sticks with kids. A big moving and powerful speech about equality will never resonate with little kids as much as those 30 seconds did. Also, even tho the man was a very staunch Christian, he _NEVER_ preached it in his shows. He just taught kids to be good because we are all humans and, as humans, we need to look out for each other. He was a hell of a guy.

Very simple - caring brings trust and trust brings caring. Mr. Rogers always cared about the simple but most important things - he showed everyone what those were (again love and respect for all) but also established (by showing, not telling) what his expectations for all of his viewers was. I mean even cynical, tough as nails Editor Diane gets the message!!

I'm so glad you watched this Diane! Fred Rogers was an ordained Presbyterian Minister who chose to work in children's television. He never talked about his religious training or convictions, but he lived out his beliefs and is an all too rare example of a religious person abounding with love for all instead of scolding people for somehow sinning or doing wrong. As you can see by the Senate testimony alone, if a human can actually be a saint, then Mr. Rogers came as close as one might hope to through his extraordinary life which was an example to all. And it's important to point out what you saw in that testimony was really him. There is no performance, no persona for the cameras. That is who this man really was 24/7 for his entire life. I have seen this clip of Mr. Rogers' famous testimony before the US Senate many times and it nearly brings tears to my eyes every time I see it because Fred Rogers' sincerity and decency and caring are so self evident. Senator Pastore was against public television funding and was daring those who testified to justify the request for $20 million for public broadcasting in the United States and he was transformed in minutes by Fred Rogers. You could see Pastore's hostility and cynicism melt away as Mr. Rogers spoke to him---not to the committee but directly to Sen. Pastore just like he spoke to every individual child who watched his program every day. Tens of millions of American and Canadian children grew up with the benefit of this man in their homes each and every day. He wasn't the only person like this but such people are exceedingly rare on this earth. I strongly, strongly recommend that you watch the HBO documentary on Mr. Rogers called "Won't You Be My Neighbor". It is filled with moments like his Senate testimony where the power of Mr. Rogers' loving personality and conviction is shown time and time and time again. If you are not in tears at some point during the documentary I would be quite surprised. Here is a link to a blurb about that documentary: www.hbo.com/documentaries/wont-you-be-my-neighbor/about Please check it out. I know you will be moved and inspired by it.

He literally did not have a different persona, he was through and through a genuine human being who wanted more than anything to not only make a difference in the lives of those he met and dealt with but to validate and have them understand their value as a human being. God, one of my favorite tik tokers sang "It's You I Like," tonight, and I literally was bombarded with so many feelings of adoration that I forgot I had for this man. I saw Tom Hanks' performance as the late Fred Rogers last year with one of my best friends, and as we were wine drunk we cried so many tears as this man's legacy is something insane to have been alive to witness, even if we were toddlers/children. I've literally spent the last 3-4 hours watching his content and related videos and found you this way.
