Y’all really gonna let cacs make you believe cacs wanted to stop slavery and Dahomey single handedly wanted to keep it alive 
Ghezo wasnt the only ruler, and Benin was the first African country to apologize for slavery

So, from what I'm reading. It's a screenplay written by 2 white women. The trailer seems like they're standing up to Colonialism, taking care of business. But the reality is they were involved in the slave trade themselves.

If y’all knew what the Kingdom of Dahomey did to West Africans…
This man interviewed was captured by them…
I'm ignorant as hell when it comes to the history of whatever that movie is about that why I was asking questions.
So this movie is for those black male feminists like that one fat dude everyone posts here FD

Make a movie about John Horse and the Black Seminoles or The Haitian Revolution. But I know Hollywood won't touch that history.
The triumphant conclusion of the Haitian Revolution is the killing of every French cac in Haiti by Dessalines. You think Hollywood would fund that?
As much as we mock Bollywood, at least Indians control their own brainwashing (ie media/entertainment).
ADOS needs to team up with Nollywood
They were not just selling POWs. They were also kidnapping and selling different ethnic groups from nearby villages that they were not at war with.
They knew how the White men were going to the captured people but those bum ass slave catching nikkas didn't care. Those bum ass nikkas saw men and women getting branded and beat right on African shores but those bum ass nikkas didn't care. There are no differences between slave selling nikkas and drug dealing street gangs. They both mean misery and death for regular Black folks.

I disagree. By that point, Afro descendants were coming back to Africa (Sierra Leone, Liberia, Afro-Brazilians in Lagos)
I don't think that's historically accurate. You had warring tribes. One tribe could attack the other, capture the men of the tribe and sell them to the whites. Handle your enemies and then sell them. I'm pretty sure they knew what would happen to them.
