I don't think the camera itself is moving. What's moving is someone with an iphone filming the screen where the entire hallway appears. Theyre using the iphone camera to pan around the larger screen and zoom into where the action is.

Slavery ended in 1865. Get over it.

I didn't buy any slaves and nobody alive in this country has owned slaves or was a slave. Nobody in this country alive has faced the injustices you mentioned.
And by the way what race do you think the sellers of the slaves were in Africa?

Stop making excuses and making a mockery of those who actually did suffer from atrocities like slavery and trying to make it your suffering. It's not. Look in the mirror and look at your parenting and that has a lot more to do with where you are in life than something that ended in this country 157 years ago.

If the far left actually wants to help black people in this country they'll points out the actual biggest problems that black people CURRENTLY face. It's not slavery, it's not Jim Crow and it's not racist corrupt cops. It's black on black crime and a lack of fathers at home. That doesn't mean the world is perfect or there aren't racists out there. But it's ignoring a bullet wound in your head for a mosquito bite at this point.

I thought that whole Will smith episode was the dumbest stunt in a while. This is what being manly means apparently, slapping another black man on a stage. Even more disappointing was that those two participated in it. Incredibly stupid spectacle.

I thought the civil rights acts was signed in 1964? Until then, it's fair to assume that the segregation and discrimination have been legally justified, unfortunately.

You hadn't heart that the majority of urban youths die at the hands of white police officers? That's what I've been told. </satire>

Now mothers with children are getting held up at gunpoint.

They don't even do this in third world countries. Jesus
It didn’t deter crime. Stop reading from a script like everyone else. It was unconstitutional and it’s not coming back.

Terry stops are in fact Constitutional and never went away. The amount of “100% fact” misinformation on this topic is staggering.
