the heckler was right, can't believe black people support these movies
what awards did Malcolm X when, the movie is the truth, its in the library of congress as part of american history
the problem with films like this, is not the slavery issue, but the way it is presented

This movie is fukking fantastic. Why the hell are you ashamed of the real truth? Dude's love drinking the damn Kool-aid.

It's not about the truth, its about the imagery, and the way its presented what can't you understand it

If I make a film about a rapist pedophile and present graphic rape scenes of children, are over emphasis this on purpose, would people have a problem with it even though its true

Dealing with and understanding that imagery is the only way we can grow and thrive as a people. Ignoring or forgetting about it won't do us any favors breh.

You're a fool

having middle school kids read Fredrick Douglas' autobiography will give all AMERICANs the true understanding of slavery, the horrors, the impact
and the triumph of an oppressed people

not a full feature torture porn that does nothing for the advancement of anything

Django is in the same bout as this film

you obviously don't understand what I'm saying

The aspects of these slaves, is always the brutality, when the true evil of slavery is nothing physical

if your a black and never read the autobiography of fredrick douglas, then you're not educated on your own history
and you're relying on hollywood to shape your psyche on what slavery was about

You have to understand how we were enslaved, it was mental brainwashing
and they continue to do it today with imagery as they've always done

12 Years a Slave is not torture porn.

If anything, it's not nearly as graphic onscreen as it actually was in real life. There's only a couple of scenes that are really visually graphic and/or gory...the majority of the film is about the psychological damage slavery causes.

There's nothing wrong with the portrayal. It's an honest historical film.

A disagree, also this isn't a historical film, what do you learn from it

I been trying to tell these dudes breh breh. Why would black people support some shyt like this? We don't need Hollywood to teach us our history:mjlol:

Do black people teach white people their history:mjlol:

Our people have been conditioned since we were brought over here against our will, and these movies are nothing different. Not saying its a big conspiracy theory, but there is literally nothing positive about a black person going to see 12 Years a Slave. If that shyt taught you something about slavery in general, then you lost cause you should already know your history.

They got Brad Pitt playing the white hero and shyt. Black people, don't fall for this shyt man.
