Norwood Hasty, Heritage of Slavery Documentary

A 1968 documentary clip features Norwood Hasty, an heir to a South Carolina plantation, discussing his views on slavery. Hasty argues that slavery was necessary because Africans were "untrained" for civilization and required 24-hour care. The hosts use this historical footage to draw parallels between the "slave master mindset" and modern paternalistic political attitudes.
