Burns documentaries are a standing forum for emphasizing (and thereby perpetuating) racial discord in this country.
I am not saying it did not occur or that it is totally eradicated. Not at all.
But I defy anyone to view a single Burns documentary where there is NOT a conscious and very pronounced effort to represent ALL of American society, and at ALL times, as totally and irreversibly racist.
His documentaries are constructed (either entirely or partially) to portray this country AS IF that is ALL America IS or EVER WAS about ... and that racism and racial discord never has and does NOT appear anywhere else on this planet!
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWRONG!
Why doesn’t he apply his experience and skill to make a documentary about the boundless, profuse and incessant flood of assistance, benefits, special consideration, etc. that minorities enjoy and have received in America for DECADES?
WTF, KEN!!!
Since he focuses on specifically American subjects it would be interesting to see him take on the Great Society.
