Yeah I'm not watching hidden colors 2 and 3 cuz I don't care about that shyt..someone said it was about melanin..and you're saying one is about anti gay and aids denial..naw im cool..I don't care about that shyt..what I didn't like was how they were just naming something for 2 seconds and saying "he was black" "blacks did that" without going into depth like how they did the moor segment..it was some bullshyt like I said, about Africans never living in caves and other shyt..but the doc is totally in ya face..without letting anything marinate for a awhile..but that's how alot of Afrocentric literature is
This is an excuse.
If you're doing three part documentaries, you should prepare to slow the fukk down and explain yourself or your rationale without trotting out half truths.
You act like i want Nasheed to fail.
I don't.
I want him to make a better product.
..where it's just hella statements all over the place..but that's really how you're supposed to get introduced into black history IMO.,.because you feel so proud that you have a history that they never taught you in school,
Nope.
Another excuse for the poor quality of this film.
You just also contradicted yourself.
Being proud of your history doesn't mean that:
1. you can spew half-assed assertions as the truth
2. that you can invoke unsubstantiated and factually inaccurate statements
3. that you can twist existing and essentially proven statements to meet your own aims.
because it's designed for whites to achieve success, because they're learning about their heroes like George Washington.or the Greeks ...so they can relate....that's the reason why alot of blacks find school boring..all they teach is is that we slaves in this country and few people did stuff in the civil rights...I'm sure white people find black history boring as well if that's all they teach..
Now you're talking about policy moving forward, not history
If this movie was about solutions, then i'd have less of a problem.
But since you're conflating the two, Im guessing you didn't pick up on the fact that reporting history isn't held to the same standard as creating future policy.
