Well, the link to the movie is above... Check it out if you have the time (and patience). It is quite shocking... but yet you know that it is true. A must see for history buffs or those interested in the truths about slavery in the American South...

Feel free to reply with commentary.

And here I thought 'Gone With the Wind' was the accurate portrayal of slavery in America. Guess I'll have to revise my thinking.

Of course a movie like that does not have blacks dancing and singing during slavery will be banned. There is no reason why the truth about slavery should be recognized by the decendents of the slavers or the slaves
