There is no definitive evidence that Jimmy Stewart was a racist, though a few anecdotes have raised questions over the years. Here's a balanced look at the claims and context:
Allegations and Context
- Hal Kanter Anecdote (1971): In Donald Dewey’s biography, producer Hal Kanter recalled that Stewart objected to a Black actor (Hal Williams) playing a police officer who would “lecture” his character. Kanter later clarified that Stewart had misunderstood the casting, and Williams was actually playing an FBI agent in a different episode. Stewart reportedly felt embarrassed by the mix-up.
- Woody Strode’s Account (1962): Actor Woody Strode, who worked with Stewart on The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, said Stewart seemed “uncomfortable” around him because he was Black. Strode didn’t accuse Stewart of overt racism but described him as a “sincere white Christian type” who may have held unconscious biases.
- No Pattern of Racist Behavior: Stewart worked with Black artists like Duke Ellington and never publicly expressed racist views. He was known for his decency and professionalism, and no co-stars or crew members have accused him of discriminatory behavior beyond these isolated anecdotes.
Interpretation
- These stories suggest possible discomfort or unconscious bias, not overt racism.
- Stewart’s legacy remains largely untarnished, and many historians argue that the anecdotes lack corroboration or context.

And treasonous by the legal definition of the term, and therefore able to be prosecuted, and convicted of treason.

It has been that way since the Civil war.

I am predicting and you heard it here first and one need only archive my predictions I posted in Feb. of this year...I said that by the fall of this year, Trump will in fact have made moves to destroy this country and I also said by years end, Trump will be removed from office. I hate saying this, but the Tiger is never wrong....

With winter vastly approaching, this ladies and gents, is Trump's vision of the white house, I think? I hope not because it looks just like the justice hall with jails down stairs were I live. tigerred59

Next to William Holden, James Stewart has always been at the top of the food chain for me when it came to great actors. That is until this one day, the very frail, old man, ie James was asked by a reporter of why he supports the NRA, or something to that effect and ol dude, gave a very harsh racist response, I was floored and really shocked and disappointed. Next to Shop Around the Corner and Its a Wonderful life, I'm so over this guy. I will never understand white haters of this caliper, living in a gated community, who has the means and privilege of never running into or being around a person of color, ner day in his damn life, hating me because I'm black??????.There you go Stewart was a racist for sure..
Huh? WTF does you taking food stamps have to do with disagreeing with you?
She seems overly sensitive to me.
