let me be the first to say, i want to live in your south. i never realized how much my fathers side of me there was. yes sir yes mam. love your channel. 'a light shining in a dark place'
Civility, except for the whole Civil War thing, .disenfranchise laws, Jim Crow and the veneration of traitors. Other than than, Southerners are just swell…
Southerners are like grits: slow-cooked & never in a hurry, deeper in flavor, but will burn ya if you dip too far. Northerners are like quick-oats; quick & convenience-oriented, flavored with sweeteners to mask the one-note flavor, and with many varieties. Both have pros & cons, and we need both to make America great. I'm a Midwestern, so maybe I'm in the middle? Also, New Yorkers and Californians are their own crazy breed. Haha
Californians should hang from trees for moving into our low inflation states and using the money they got from their one bed room studio apartment in LA to buy 100 acres... Grrrrr.
SO well stated. All of it. Born and raised on the south side of Atlanta, Georgia. Lived and loved being in Tupelo, Mississippi for 8 years - birthplace of Elvis. The men, ALWAYS should put women AHEAD of us. When a lady enters the room, we still STAND UP - out of respect. Much more… thanks for covering this so well.
I'm from Macon, Ga, birthplace of Little Richard and once home to the Allman Brothers. Unfortunately, Macon has changed so much over the last couple of decades, not for the good. Failing schools and high crime forced us into rural Elko, Ga. 🍑🍑
Thank you mam, you got it right for I was born and bred in the south! So was many generations before me and I would never or have ever had any desire to live anywhere else. We understand the connection to the land and our heritage that other places never feel and understand.
Thank you for being proud of our heritage. In a day when so many lies are being told about us and our heritage being villainized by the MSM it is truly refreshing to hear a genteel southern lady speak truth. As an amateur southern historian and southern apologist I highly recommend The Abbeville Institute who specialize in the preservation of southern heritage for further edification of your viewers. You are right, we are not alone. Trust God.
I was born outside Chicago and now am stuck in L.A. looking at places in Kentucky where my Father and Grandfather and generations of my family have resided. I may not have grown up in the South myself but all the sentiment that you put into this video has been instilled in me and I intend to go there and bring my southern manners and heritage home. I also intend to bring what I have learned on my journeys to improve not only my life but the history of such wonderful people and the love they share. I want to bring some of the heritage into my art and life in many ways. I was blessed to have grown up with Southern Heritage in my life and remember many happy days in the South. The sweetest water I ever tasted!
It has always been my top dream to live in Southern United States, get a dog, connect with wonderful people like Yourself, write film music on warm evenings, maybe even own a farm. Whenever I think about the South I feel at home, and I live in europe, never even been to US. Unexplainable draw ever since I can remember.
I enjoyed watching your video. We do have a heritage to be proud of. I've always liked this saying greatly and am proud to be a part of it: American by birth, Southern by the grace of God.
I always root for the underdog! My whole life I’ve been the underdog and I know how lonely that can be! Now I have a wonderful best friend - JESUS CHRIST! 🙏❤️🇺🇸💎😊
I lived in Texas for ten years. It seemed to me the further north you go the colder people get. Much more friendly in my opinion. Not saying northerners are bad, I live in Pa.
@@theleapforward1032 nope. The South was so bitter about the inhumane atrocities from Sherman’s army, it took another 100 years-time for two generations to die off-before the South could begin to learn what it should have from the war. And even then, and still now, there were a few who were so corrupted by the toxicity they still would not learn. Sherman’s march didn’t end the war. Sherman’s march gave the war a stronghold in the hearts of bitter people, and made it last many generations longer than it needed to. No, friend. Violence motivates people to justify and hold on to their hate, and teach it to their children. You are proof of that.
@@southerndigest8996 slavery was violent and approved, and after seeing the Haiti uprising, the souths hatred and paranoia of black people increased. The violence started in slavery, the hatred followed.
What I expressed here is my experience, and what many others have expressed to me is their experience too. I’m sorry you have not found things to love about the land and people where you grew up, Alvin. I hope you are now living in a place that’s better suited to you.
