The narration is also 1933....."You'll like to stop at Memphis where you can listen to darkies loading cotton on the docks and humming "Ole Man River"......

In this day of political correctness,I thought it would be censored out , or the clip totally removed .
Re: Fly American! 1933
Historical-accuracy..?? or Historical-revision...?? What's your pleasure? Since it's not a modern view of air travel but a historical view of air-tavel-advertising, I view it as educational, but only historical if it's held to accuracy.... and do not view it as a statement of modern values, so I am not offended. I don't know how I'd feel if it were my grandfather loading the cotton.

I almost fell off my chair when I heard what I thought I heard. I rewound it and listened again. Decided it probably was not what I heard and watched on.
