  1. Years ago when I was a child I saw this scene (or one very simmilar to it) while my father was watching TV.

    It (alongside another scene from a different movie) forever ingrained for me the image of what slavery is.

    Its also one of these two scenes that replays in my head everytime I see somebody make a claim that it wasn’t that bad.

    I never watched the rest of the movie as a child. And i’ve intentionally avoided it since then. Since I fear the knowledge of how the story ends may change that lesson, however unlikely that is.

  2. Dear God, this is my history, my grandmother was born into slavery, I make sure to educate my Son of this, so that he respects & honors the sacrifices of those before him, which allows him to go to Yale

  3. It seems to me we are being educated for the reinstitution of slavery….I mean 12 million of them came to us willingly to be used in our nation's sweat shops..well done Joe Biden and the democrat party..hell you've done it before, why not now.

  4. I wonder why Hollywood doesn't make a movie about the white slave trade? More white slaves died than Black slaves. It's also funny that our schools don't teach us about that. Every race has suffered from this evil BS

  5. There are people who believe that being a slave was great because slaves had "free" food, "free" clothes and "free" shelter. Not 10, 24 or 50 years ago. But in 2024. There are people who actually believe that.

  6. Beast. Splitting up a human family. The evil that men do. As long as human beings have been such, we have been this evil and rotten to each other. Everywhere. In all eras. Horrendous.

  7. Does this film talk about the religion of almost 90% of the slave traders? Or the religion of the majority of slave owners?

    Just asking if the little hat men get shown truthfully.
